Research on automatic recognition radiomics algorithm for early sacroiliac arthritis based on sacroiliac MRI imaging.

Objective: To create an automated machine learning model using sacroiliac joint MRI imaging for early sacroiliac arthritis detection, aiming to enhance diagnostic accuracy.

Methods: We conducted a retrospective analysis involving 71 patients with early sacroiliac arthritis and 85 patients with normal sacroiliac joint MRI scans. Transverse T1WI and T2WI sequences were collected and subjected to radiomics analysis by two physicians.

Nomogram model for predicting invasive placenta in patients with placenta previa: integrating MRI findings and clinical characteristics.

This study aims to validate a nomogram model that predicts invasive placenta in patients with placenta previa, utilizing MRI findings and clinical characteristics. A retrospective analysis was conducted on a training cohort of 269 patients from the Second Affiliated Hospital of Fujian Medical University and a validation cohort of 41 patients from Quanzhou Children's Hospital. Patients were classified into noninvasive and invasive placenta groups based on pathological reports and intraoperative findings.

RSU-Net: U-net based on residual and self-attention mechanism in the segmentation of cardiac magnetic resonance images.

Background: Automated segmentation techniques for cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) are beneficial for evaluating cardiac functional parameters in clinical diagnosis. However, due to the characteristics of unclear image boundaries and anisotropic resolution anisotropy produced by cardiac magnetic resonance imaging technology, most of the existing methods still have the problems of intra-class uncertainty and inter-class uncertainty. However, due to the irregularity of the anatomical shape of the heart and the inhomogeneity of tissue density, the boundaries of its anatomical structures become uncertain and discontinuous.

Cardiac MRI segmentation of the atria based on UU-NET.

Background And Objective: In today's society, people's work pressure, coupled with irregular diet, lack of exercise and other bad lifestyle, resulting in frequent cardiovascular diseases. Medical imaging has made great progress in modern society, among which the role of MRI in cardiovascular field is self-evident. Based on this research background, how to process cardiac MRI quickly and accurately by computer has been extensively discussed.

Automated meniscus segmentation and tear detection of knee MRI with a 3D mask-RCNN.

Background: The diagnostic results of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) are essential references for arthroscopy as an invasive procedure. A deviation between medical imaging diagnosis and arthroscopy results may cause irreversible damage to patients and lead to excessive medical treatment. To improve the accurate diagnosis of meniscus injury, it is urgent to develop auxiliary diagnosis algorithms to improve the accuracy of radiological diagnosis.

RU-Net: An improved U-Net placenta segmentation network based on ResNet.

Background: In recent years, with the increase of late puerperium, cesarean section and induced abortion, the incidence of placenta accreta has been on the rise. It has become one of the common clinical diseases in obstetrics and gynecology. In clinical practice, accurate segmentation of placental tissue is the basis for identifying placental accreta and assessing the degree of accreta.

Application value of preoperative dual-source computed tomography in assessing the rupture site of thoracic aortic dissection.

Objective: To investigate the application value of dual-source computed tomography (DSCT) in preoperative assessment the rupture site of an thoracic aortic dissection (TAD).

Methods: A retrospective analysis of preoperative DSCT, multislice computed tomography (MSCT), and transthoracic echocardiography (TTE) results of 150 patients with suspected TAD in our hospital was conducted, and the intraoperative findings or interventional treatment results were used as the diagnostic gold standard.

Results: Of all 150 suspected TAD patients, 123 patients were confirmed to have TAD.

A Left Pulmonary Artery Sling in an Asymptomatic Adult Patient, A Case Report and Review of Literature.

Pulmonary artery sling (PAS) is a rare congenital vascular anomaly. Ninety percent of patients with PAS have respiratory distress and need surgical correction. Asymptomatic adult presentation of PAS is rare.

Application of Indirect Signs of Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) in Prenatal Diagnosis of Abnormally Invasive Placenta.

BACKGROUND The aim of this study was to assess the value of indirect MRI signs in the prenatal diagnosis of abnormally invasive placenta (AIP). MATERIAL AND METHODS This study involved the retrospective analysis of indirect signs of 109 patients with AIP and 59 patients without AIP. The numbers of cases of placenta increta, accreta, and percreta confirmed by surgical and pathological results were 54, 19, and 36, respectively.

The Role of Dual-Source Computed Tomography Angiography in Evaluating the Aortic Arch Vessels in Acute Type A Aortic Dissection: A Retrospective Study of 42 Patients.

BACKGROUND This study aimed to investigate the role of dual-source computed tomography angiography (DSCTA) to evaluate the anatomy of the aortic arch vessels in patients with acute Type A aortic dissection (AD). MATERIAL AND METHODS A retrospective clinical study included 42 patients with acute Type A AD who underwent DSCTA and were treated in our hospital between January 2018 and December 2018. The findings were compared with a control group of 45 healthy individuals with hypertension and without aortic arch lesions.

Diagnosis of Congenital Coarctation of the Aorta and Accompany Malformations in Infants by Multi-Detector Computed Tomography Angiography and Transthoracic Echocardiography: A Chinese Clinical Study.

BACKGROUND The purpose of this study was to evaluate the utility of multi-detector computed tomography (MDCT) angiography and transthoracic echocardiography (TTE) in the diagnosis of congenital coarctation of the aorta (CoA) and accompanying malformations in infants. MATERIAL AND METHODS From January 2012 and December 2015, we enrolled 68 infants with clinically suspected CoA who underwent MDCT angiography and TTE in our hospital. Surgical correction was conducted to confirm the diagnostic accuracy of both examinations in all patients.

Preoperative evaluation value of aortic arch lesions by multidetector computed tomography angiography in type A aortic dissection.

The purpose of this study was to preoperatively evaluate the value of aortic arch lesions by multidetector computed tomography (MDCT) angiography in type A aortic dissection (AD).From January 2013 to December 2015, we enrolled 42 patients with type A AD who underwent MDCT angiography in our hospital. The institutional database of patients was retrospectively reviewed to identify MDCT angiography examinations for type A AD.
