Psychiatric disorders from EEG signals through deep learning models.
IBRO Neurosci Rep
December 2024
Article Synopsis
- Psychiatric disorders are hard to diagnose because individuals often hide their true emotions, and traditional methods using neurophysiological signals have limitations.
- Our study introduces an improved EEG-based diagnostic model that uses Deep Learning techniques to enhance the diagnosis of psychiatric disorders, analyzing data from 945 individuals.
- The advanced models we tested, like ANN and CNN-LSTM, achieved high accuracy rates in classifying various disorders, suggesting that EEG can be a cost-effective and accessible tool for improving psychiatric diagnosis and patient care.
Article Synopsis
- Whole-pelvis concurrent chemoradiation (CCRT) is the standard approach for treating invasive bladder cancer, but this study compares it with bladder-only CCRT to see if similar results can be achieved.
- The study included 230 patients, randomly assigning 120 to whole-pelvis CCRT and 110 to bladder-only CCRT, analyzing factors like toxicity, compliance, and survival rates over a median follow-up of 5 years.
- Results indicated that bladder-only CCRT has comparable bladder preservation, disease-free survival, and overall survival rates to whole-pelvis CCRT, suggesting it could be a viable option to reduce side effects in eligible patients.
In vivo dosimetry with diodes in a radiotherapy department in Pakistan.
Radiat Prot Dosimetry
November 2011
The International Commission of Radiological Units (ICRU) sets a tolerance of ±5 % on dose delivery, with more recent data limiting the overall tolerances to ±3 %. One of the best methods for accurate dose delivery and quality check is in vivo dosimetry, while radiotherapy is performed. The present study was carried out to test the applicability of diodes for performing in vivo entrance dose measurements in external photon beam radiotherapy for pelvic tumours and its implementation as quality assurance tool in radiotherapy.
