AI Article Synopsis

  • Direct laser writing can create photonic structures in layers containing recombinant fluorescent proteins within optical microcavities.
  • The laser light used can induce significant photonic confinement, achieving potentials around 40 meV.
  • This method allows for precise spatial control and enables room-temperature lasing in various shapes, like rings and pillars, using specially designed laser beams.

Article Abstract

Direct laser writing of photonic boxes into active layers of biologically produced recombinant fluorescent protein in optical microcavities is demonstrated. Irradiation with laser light above the photobleaching threshold induces photonic confinement potentials on the order of 40 meV. The technique provides high spatial selectivity and enables room-temperature lasing in protein rings, and circular and elliptical pillars with customized beam shapes.

Sarcopenia is a predictor for Alzheimer's continuum and related clinical outcomes.

Sci Rep

September 2024

Low body mass index is closely related to a high risk of Alzheimer's disease (AD) and related biomarkers including amyloid-β (Aβ) deposition. However, the association between sarcopenia and Aβ-confirmed AD remains controversial. Therefore, we investigated the relationship between sarcopenia and the AD continuum.

To preliminarily verify the feasibility of a deep-learning (DL) artificial intelligence (AI) model to localize pulmonary embolism (PE) on unenhanced chest-CT by comparison with pulmonary artery (PA) CT angiography (CTA). In a monocentric study, we retrospectively reviewed 99 oncological patients (median age in years: 64 (range: 28-92 years); percentage of female: 39.4%) who received unenhanced and contrast-enhanced chest CT examinations in one session between January 2020 and October 2022 and who were diagnosed incidentally with PE.

Background: Simultaneous positron emission tomography (PET)/magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scanners and inserts are valuable tools for accurate diagnosis, treatment planning, and monitoring due to their complementary information. However, the integration of a PET system into an MRI scanner presents technical challenges for a distortion-free operation.

Purpose: We aim to develop a PET insert dedicated to breast imaging in combination with the 3T PET/MRI scanner Biograph mMR (Siemens Healthineers) as well as a brain PET insert for the 7T MRI scanner MAGNETOM Terra (Siemens Healthineers).

Background: Machine learning (ML) has shown promise in improving the risk prediction in non-invasive cardiovascular imaging, including SPECT MPI and coronary CT angiography. However, most algorithms used remain black boxes to clinicians in how they compute their predictions. Furthermore, objective consideration of the multitude of available clinical data, along with the visual and quantitative assessments from CCTA and SPECT, are critical for optimal patient risk stratification.

Article Synopsis
  • - Accurate and rapid detection of binuclear cells (BCs) is crucial for assessing leukemia risk, but manual counting and traditional image processing techniques are inefficient and subject to errors due to staining quality and morphological diversity.
  • - The proposed deep learning method employs a multi-task approach, utilizing circular bounding boxes for coarse BC detection and key points for nucleus detection, enhancing accuracy by reducing surrounding interference and allowing for rotation invariance.
  • - Additionally, the method includes a fine-grained classification network that uses color layer supervision and a transformer for better region selection, along with an unsupervised cytoplasm generator to improve dataset quality; experiments show this approach surpasses existing methods in nearly all evaluation metrics relevant for cancer screening.
