The imaging of the live cochlea is a challenging task. Regardless of the quality of images obtained from modern clinical imaging techniques, the internal structures of the cochlea mainly remain obscured. Electrical impedance tomography (EIT) is a safe, low-cost alternative medical imaging technique with applications in various clinical scenarios.

Background: At high magnetic fields, degraded image quality due to dielectric artifacts and elevated specific absorption rate (SAR) are two technical challenges in fetal MRI.
Purpose: To assess the potential of high dielectric constant (HDC) pad in increasing image quality and decreasing SAR for 3 T fetal MRI.
Study Type: Prospective.

Machine learning models for chemistry require large datasets, often compiled by combining data from multiple assays. However, combining data without careful curation can introduce significant noise. While absolute values from different assays are rarely comparable, trends or differences between compounds are often assumed to be consistent.

However, the observed calcium signals are only an indirect readout of the underlying electrophysiological events (single spikes or bursts of spikes) and require dedicated algorithms to recover the spike rate. These algorithms for spike inference can be optimized using ground truth data from combined electrical and optical recordings, but it is not clear how such optimized algorithms perform on cell types and brain regions for which ground truth does not exist.

Leishmaniases present a significant global health challenge with limited and often inadequate treatment options available. Traditional microscopic methods for detecting Leishmania amastigotes are time-consuming and error-prone, highlighting the need for automated approaches. This study aimed to implement and validate the YOLOv8 deep learning model for real-time detection, quantification, and categorization of Leishmania amastigotes to enhance drug screening assays.
