The Liver Tumor Segmentation Benchmark (LiTS).

In this work, we report the set-up and results of the Liver Tumor Segmentation Benchmark (LiTS), which was organized in conjunction with the IEEE International Symposium on Biomedical Imaging (ISBI) 2017 and the International Conferences on Medical Image Computing and Computer-Assisted Intervention (MICCAI) 2017 and 2018. The image dataset is diverse and contains primary and secondary tumors with varied sizes and appearances with various lesion-to-background levels (hyper-/hypo-dense), created in collaboration with seven hospitals and research institutions. Seventy-five submitted liver and liver tumor segmentation algorithms were trained on a set of 131 computed tomography (CT) volumes and were tested on 70 unseen test images acquired from different patients.

Diagnostic significance of mesenteric lymph node involvement in proximal small bowel Crohn's disease.

Background: The diagnosis of proximal small bowel involvement in Crohn's disease (CD) can be challenging at magnetic resonance enterography (MRE). The inflammatory process in CD can be associated with peri-intestinal inflammatory reactions, including the presence of inflamed mesenteric lymph nodes.

Objectives: To evaluate the significance of inflamed mesenteric lymph nodes adjacent to the jejunum at MRE in CD and the association with proximal bowel disease as detected by video capsule endoscopy (VCE).

Machine learning for prediction of intra-abdominal abscesses in patients with Crohn's disease visiting the emergency department.

Background: Intra-abdominal abscess (IA) is an important clinical complication of Crohn's disease (CD). A high index of clinical suspicion is needed as imaging is not routinely used during hospital admission. This study aimed to identify clinical predictors of an IA among hospitalized patients with CD using machine learning.

Stress-related emotional and behavioural impact following the first COVID-19 outbreak peak.

The COVID-19 pandemic poses multiple psychologically stressful challenges and is associated with an increased risk for mental illness. Previous studies have focused on the psychopathological symptoms associated with the outbreak peak. Here, we examined the behavioural and mental-health impact of the pandemic in Israel using an online survey, during the six weeks encompassing the end of the first outbreak and the beginning of the second.

Magnetic resonance enterography in Crohn's disease patients: current state of the art and future perspectives.

Introduction: Crohn's disease (CD) is a major concern due to relatively high incidence and major complications like stricture or fistulas, often requiring surgical treatment. In recent years, magnetic resonance enterography (MRE) became a popular method of diagnosis and disease surveillance. The purpose of this review is to summarize and discuss the major and most recent advances in various aspects of MRE usage in diagnosong Crohn's disease, and to discuss advances in technique, disease activity monitoring and response to treatment.

Qualitative sonographic assessment of transmural ileal inflammation in Crohn's disease: a comparison with MRI activity score.

Background: Intestinal ultrasound (IUS) is an accurate tool for monitoring Crohn's disease. To date, there is no clinically used validated quantitative ultrasonographic score for assessing disease activity. For magnetic resonance enterography (MRE), the magnetic resonance index of activity (MaRIA) is most used.
