Lymphadenopathy is associated with lymph node abnormal size or consistency due to many causes. We employed the deep convolutional neural network ResNet-34 to detect and classify CT images from patients with abdominal lymphadenopathy and healthy controls. We created a single database containing 1400 source CT images for patients with abdominal lymphadenopathy (n = 700) and healthy controls (n = 700).

Objective: This study aimed to explore the diagnostic value of multiorgan (heart, lungs, blood vessels) point-of-care ultrasound (PoCUS) in patients with high-risk and medium-to-low-risk pulmonary embolism (PE).
Methods: Clinical data of 92 patients with suspected PE, admitted to Hangzhou TCM Hospital affiliated with Zhejiang Chinese Medical University from July 2021 to June 2023, were retrospectively analyzed. According to hemodynamic status, patients were divided into the high-risk (n=28) and the medium-to-low-risk groups (n=64).
