A Novel Method Using Dual‐Energy Computed Tomography for Detecting Amiodarone‐Induced Lung Injury: A Cohort Pilot Study

Respirology, EarlyView.
There is no gold standard for detecting amiodarone‐induced‐lung injury (AILD). Dual‐Energy‐Computed‐Tomography (DECT) depicts iodine deposition in lungs abnormalities and the liver. We found a substantial correlation between the DECT assessment of AILD and comprehensive clinical evaluation of AILD. DECT can assist in the diagnosis of AILD.

Heart‐On‐a‐Chip with Integrated Ultrasoft Mechanosensors for Continuous Measurement of Cell‐ and Tissue‐Scale Contractile Stresses

Small, EarlyView.
We present a heart‐on‐a‐chip platform embedded with ultrasoft mechanosensors for real‐time, multi‐scale stress mapping in engineered cardiac tissues. The system enables simultaneous quantification of local cell‐generated stresses and global tissue contractile forces.
