We have examined the ontogeny of parvalbumin (PV) and calbindin D-28k (CB) immunoreactivities in the canine anterior cingulate cortex (ACC) from the day of birth (P0) through P180. At P7, PV immunoreactivity first appeared in layer VI multipolar cells. The PV immunoreactivity in GABAergic nonpyramidal cells appeared to follow an inside-out gradient of radial emergence. Although immunoreaction was limited mainly to the developing nonpyramidal cells, pyramid-like PV immunoreactive cells were transitorily observed in layer V from P14 to P90. The developmental pattern of CB immunoreactivity differed from that of PV immunoreactivity. CB immunoreactivity first developed in layer V pyramidal cells from P0, which continued through P90. CB immunoreactive nonpyramidal cells were located in the infragranular layers and white matter at P0 and matured in both the supragranular and infragranular layers without clear inside-out gradient. This developmental study revealed the comparable belated expression of PV immunoreactivity and the transient expression of both calcium-binding proteins in layer V pyramidal cells. These results suggest that the transient expression of calcium-binding proteins in layer V pyramidal cells might be related to the critical period of early postnatal development.

Data-Efficient Bone Segmentation Using Feature Pyramid- Based SegFormer.

Master's Program in Information and Computer Science, Doshisha University, Kyoto 610-0394, Japan.

The semantic segmentation of bone structures demands pixel-level classification accuracy to create reliable bone models for diagnosis. While Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) are commonly used for segmentation, they often struggle with complex shapes due to their focus on texture features and limited ability to incorporate positional information. As orthopedic surgery increasingly requires precise automatic diagnosis, we explored SegFormer, an enhanced Vision Transformer model that better handles spatial awareness in segmentation tasks.

A challenge in neuroimaging is acquiring frame sequences at high temporal resolution from the largest possible number of pixels. Measuring 1%-10% fluorescence changes normally requires 12-bit or higher bit depth, constraining the frame size allowing imaging in the kHz range. We resolved Ca or membrane potential signals from cell populations or single neurons in brain slices by acquiring fluorescence at 8-bit depth and by binning pixels offline, achieving unprecedented frame sizes at kHz rates.

Purpose: To develop an end-to-end convolutional neural network model for analyzing hematoxylin and eosin(H&E)-stained histological images, enhancing the performance and efficiency of nuclear segmentation and classification within the digital pathology workflow.

Methods: We propose a dual-mechanism feature pyramid fusion technique that integrates nuclear segmentation and classification tasks to construct the HistoNeXt network model. HistoNeXt utilizes an encoder-decoder architecture, where the encoder, based on the advanced ConvNeXt convolutional framework, efficiently and accurately extracts multi-level abstract features from tissue images.

AI-based breast cancer detection can improve the sensitivity and specificity of detection, especially for small lesions, which has clinical value in realizing early detection and treatment so as to reduce mortality. The two-stage detection network performs well; however, it adopts an imprecise ROI during classification, which can easily include surrounding tumor tissues. Additionally, fuzzy noise is a significant contributor to false positives.

Background: Cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) plays a crucial role in monitoring disease progression and evaluating the effectiveness of treatment interventions. Cardiac MRI allows medical practitioners to assess cardiac function accurately by providing comprehensive and quantitative information about the structure and function, hence making it an indispensable tool for monitoring the disease and treatment response. Deep learning-based segmentation enables the precise delineation of cardiac structures including the myocardium, right ventricle, and left ventricle.
