Third trimester fetal 4D flow MRI with motion correction.

Magn Reson Med

January 2025

Department of Radiology & Nuclear Medicine, Amsterdam University Medical Center, University of Amsterdam, Amsterdam, The Netherlands.

Purpose: To correct maternal breathing and fetal bulk motion during fetal 4D flow MRI.

Methods: A Doppler-ultrasound fetal cardiac-gated free-running 4D flow acquisition was corrected post hoc for maternal respiratory and fetal bulk motion in separate automated steps, with optional manual intervention to assess and limit fetal motion artifacts. Compressed-sensing reconstruction with a data outlier rejection algorithm was adapted from previous work.

Diagnostic performance of prehospital EFAST in predicting CT scan injuries in severe trauma patients: a multicenter cohort study.

Eur J Trauma Emerg Surg

January 2025

Department of Emergency Medicine, Assistance publique des hôpitaux de Marseille (APHM), Marseille University, Timone University Hospital, Marseille, France.

Background: The early mortality of trauma patients, mainly from hemorrhagic shock, raises interest in detecting the presence of non-exteriorized bleeding. Intra-hospital EFAST (Extended Focused Assessment with Sonography for Trauma) has demonstrated its utility in the assessment and management of severe trauma patients (STP). However, there is a lack of data regarding the diagnostic performance of prehospital EFAST (pEFAST).

Topic Importance: Accurate assessment of a patient's volume status is crucial in many conditions, informing decisions on fluid prescribing, vasoactive agents, and decongestive therapies. Determining a patient's volume status is challenging, due to limitations in examination and investigations and the complexities of fluid homeostasis in disease states. Point-of-care ultrasound (POCUS) is useful in assessing hemodynamic parameters related to volume status, fluid responsiveness, and fluid tolerance.

Nanobody-Based Lateral Flow Immunoassay for Rapid Antigen Detection of SARS-CoV-2 and MERS-CoV Proteins.

ACS Synth Biol

January 2025

KAUST Catalysis Center (KCC), Division of Physical Sciences & Engineering, King Abdullah University of Science and Technology, KAUST, Thuwal 23955, Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.

The COVID-19 pandemic has highlighted the critical need for pathogen detection methods that offer both low detection limits and rapid results. Despite advancements in simplifying and enhancing nucleic acid amplification techniques, immunochemical methods remain the preferred methods for mass testing. These methods eliminate the need for specialized laboratories and highly skilled personnel, making home testing feasible.
