A simple algorithm to derive virtual non-contrast electron density from dual-energy computed tomography data for radiotherapy treatment planning.
Med Phys
January 2025
Department of Chemistry, Faculty of Science, Hokkaido University, Sapporo, Hokkaido, Japan.
Background: The use of iodinated contrast-enhancing agents in computed tomography (CT) improves the visualization of relevant structures for radiotherapy treatment planning (RTP). However, it can lead to dose calculation errors by incorrectly converting a CT number to electron density.
Purpose: This study aimed to propose an algorithm for deriving virtual non-contrast (VNC) electron density from dual-energy CT (DECT) data.
Ultrasound-Based Local Lung Motion Assessment Using Synthetic Lateral Phase.
J Clin Ultrasound
January 2025
JD Hamilton Consulting, Brighton, Michigan, USA.
Background: Ultrasound lung surface motion measurement is valuable for the evaluation of a variety of diseases. Speckle tracking or Doppler-based techniques are limited by the loss of visualization as a tracked point moves under ribs or is dependent.
Methods: We developed a synthetic lateral phase-based algorithm for tracking lung motion to overcome these limitations.
Background: Intrabdominal pressure (IAP) is an important parameter. Elevated IAP can reduce visceral perfusion, lead to intraabdominal hypertension, and result in life-threatening abdominal compartment syndrome. While ingestible capsular devices have been used for various abdominal diagnoses, their application in continuous IAP monitoring remains unproven.

Digital transformation (DT) has become vital for companies trying to remain competitive in the recent ever-changing technological environment. DT is the integration of digital technologies into all disciplines of business from regular activities to strategic decision making. Risk management planning requires projects to assess possible risks that may negatively or positively affect a DT project.

JMIR Form Res
January 2025
Section for Physiotherapy, Division of Medicine, Oslo University Hospital, Oslo, Norway.
Background: The use of mobile health interventions, such as apps, are proposed to meet the challenges faced by preventive health care services due to the increasing prevalence of type 2 diabetes (T2D). Thus, we developed and conducted initial feasibility testing of the Plunde app for promoting and monitoring individual goals related to lifestyle change for people at risk of T2D.
Objective: The primary aim of this study was to assess the feasibility of an app for promoting lifestyle change in people at risk of T2D.
