The effectiveness of current microwave ablation (MWA) therapies is limited. Administration of thermosensitive liposomes (TSLs) which release drugs in response to heat has presented a significant potential for enhancing the efficacy of thermal ablation treatment, and the benefits of targeted drug delivery. However, a complete knowledge of the mechan...

In the last decade, long-tail learning has become a popular research focus in deep learning applications in medicine. However, no scientometric reports have provided a systematic overview of this scientific field. We utilized bibliometric techniques to identify and analyze the literature on long-tailed learning in deep learning applications in medi...

Recurrent major depressive disorder (rMDD) has a high recurrence rate, and symptoms often worsen with each episode. Classifying rMDD using functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) can enhance understanding of brain activity and aid diagnosis and treatment of this disorder. We developed a Residual Denoising Autoencoder (Res-DAE) framework for th...

As part of spinal fusion surgery, shaping the rod implant to align with the anatomy is a tedious, error-prone, and time-consuming manual process. Inadequately contoured rod implants introduce stress on the screw-bone interface of the pedicle screws, potentially leading to screw loosening or even pull-out. We propose the first fully automated soluti...

Electroencephalogram (EEG) signals record brain activity, with growing interest in quantifying neural activity through complexity analysis as a potential biological marker for schizophrenia. Presently, EEG complexity analysis primarily relies on manual feature extraction, which is subjective and yields varied findings in studies involving schizophr...

Automatic needle tip detection is important in real-time ultrasound (US) images that are utilized to guide interventional needle puncture procedures in clinical settings. However, due to the spatial indiscernibility problem caused by the severe background interferences and the tip characteristics of small size, being grayscale and indistinctive app...

Multi-label Chest X-ray (CXR) images often contain rich label relationship information, which is beneficial to improve classification performance. However, because of the intricate relationships among labels, most existing works fail to effectively learn and make full use of the label correlations, resulting in limited classification performance. I...

Fluid-structure interaction (FSI) is required in the study of several cardiovascular engineering problems were the mutual interaction between the pulsatile blood flow and the tissue structures is essential to establish the biomechanics of the system. Traditional FSI methods are partitioned approaches where two independent solvers, one for the fluid...

Age-related arterial stiffening increases peripheral resistance and decreases arterial distensibility, thus contributing to hypertension, an important risk factor of atherosclerosis. It causes abnormal blood flow, endothelial dysfunction, higher pulse wave velocity, and consequently elevated pressure wave amplitude. This paper presents the influenc...

In clinical applications, there is an increasing demand for rapid acquisition and automated analysis of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) data. However, most existing methods focus on either MR image reconstruction from undersampled data or segmentation using fully sampled data, hardly considering MR image segmentation in fast imaging scenarios.
