The imperative development of point-of-care diagnosis for accurate and rapid medical image segmentation, has become increasingly urgent in recent years. Although some pioneering work has applied complex modules to improve segmentation performance, resulting models are often heavy, which is not practical for the modern clinical setting of point-of-care diagnosis. To address these challenges, we propose UltraNet, a state-of-the-art lightweight model that achieves competitive performance in segmenting multiple parts of medical images with the lowest parameters and computational complexity.

The bovine respiratory disease complex (BRD) is a multifactorial disease caused by various bacterial and viral pathogens. Using rapid pathogen detection techniques is helpful for tailoring therapeutic and preventive strategies in affected animals and herds. The objective of this study was to report the frequency of 10 pathogens by multiplex RT-qPCR on samples submitted for BRD diagnosis to a diagnostic laboratory (Biovet Inc.

Kaposi sarcoma-associated herpes virus (KSHV), also known as human herpes virus 8 (HHV-8), is the primary etiologic cause of Kaposi sarcoma (KS) and KSHV Inflammatory Cytokine Syndrome (KICS). Patients with KICS demonstrate symptoms of systemic inflammation, high KSHV viral load, elevation of inflammatory markers, and increased mortality. Management requires rapid diagnosis, treatment of underlying HIV, direct treatment of KS, and addressing the hyperimmune response.
