Purpose: The aim was to evaluate the repeatability and agreement of two swept-source optical coherence tomographers for anterior segment parameters in healthy subjects.
Patients And Methods: Automated mark of scleral spur and angle recess for the CASIA2 and manual mark of scleral spur and angle recess for the Anterion were performed, and then the measurement values of the related parameters were automatically generated. Subjects with pupil diameter (PD) differing by <15% between the 2 devices were included. PD, lens vault (LV), anterior chamber depth (ACD), angle to angle distance (ATA), anterior chamber width (ACW), anterior chamber angle (ACA), angle opening distance (AOD), and trabecular iris space area (TISA) were measured in the horizontal images with both CASIA2 and Anterion. Intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC) was used to evaluate intradevice repeatability. Bland-Altman plots were performed to assess the agreement between the 2 devices.
Results: Thirty-five right eyes of 35 subjects were included with a mean age of 25.60±3.00 years. The CASIA2 showed moderate to good intradevice repeatability (ICCs ranged from 0.786 to 0.989) whereas the Anterion showed good intradevice repeatability (ICCs ranged from 0.921 to 0.998) for anterior segment parameters. Compared with the CASIA2, the Anterion offered larger values of ACA500/750, AOD500/750, and TISA500/750 but smaller values of PD, LV, ACD, ATA, and ACW. Good agreement for PD, ACD, ATA, and ACW was detected with 95% limits of agreement of -1.02 to 1.02 mm, -0.11 to 0.14 mm, -0.17 to 0.19 mm, -0.13 to 0.28 mm, respectively. Poor agreement for LV, ACA500/750, AOD500/750, and TISA500/750 was achieved with the 2 devices.
Conclusions: Anterion outperformed CASIA2 on intradevice repeatability. While agreement was noted for some parameters using manual Anterion and automated CASIA2 approaches, poor agreement of LV and angle parameters indicates that measurements from these optical coherence tomography devices should not be considered interchangeable.

Background: Investigators and funding organizations desire knowledge on topics and trends in publicly funded research but current efforts for manual categorization have been limited in breadth and depth of understanding.
Purpose: We present a semi-automated analysis of 21 years of R-type National Cancer Institute (NCI) grants to departments of radiation oncology and radiology using natural language processing (NLP).
Methods: We selected all non-education R-type NCI grants from 2000 to 2020 awarded to departments of radiation oncology/radiology with affiliated schools of medicine.

In larger, translational animal models, manual measurements of longitudinal bone growth using fluorochrome labels is tedious and may be prone to less rigor due to variations in reader experience, sampling differences, and photobleaching that limits the repeatability of measurements. This study assesses the reliability of three different digital methods to assist in measurement of distance between pulsed fluorochrome labels. Forty-five tibial physes from skeletally immature New Zealand White rabbits were pulsed with fluorochrome labels and measured using Fully Manual Technique (FMT), Manual Digital Measurement (MDM), Computer Assisted Image Processing (AIP), and Fully Automated Measurement (FAM).

Microbes experience dynamic conditions in natural habitats as well as in engineered environments, such as large-scale bioreactors, which exhibit increased mixing times and inhomogeneities. While single perturbations have been studied for several organisms and substrates, the impact of recurring short-term perturbations remains largely unknown. In this study, we investigated the response of Saccharomyces cerevisiae to repetitive gradients of four different sugars: glucose, fructose, sucrose, and maltose.

Purpose: To investigate image quality and agreement of derived cardiac function parameters in a novel joint image reconstruction and segmentation approach based on disentangled representation learning, enabling real-time cardiac cine imaging during free-breathing.
Methods: A multi-tasking neural network architecture, incorporating disentangled representation learning, was trained using simulated examinations based on data from a public repository along with MR scans specifically acquired for model development. An exploratory feasibility study evaluated the method on undersampled real-time acquisitions using an in-house developed spiral bSSFP pulse sequence in eight healthy participants and five patients with intermittent atrial fibrillation.

Functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) has dramatically advanced non-invasive human brain mapping and decoding. Functional near-infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS) and high-density diffuse optical tomography (HD-DOT) non-invasively measure blood oxygen fluctuations related to brain activity, like fMRI, at the brain surface, using more-lightweight equipment that circumvents ergonomic and logistical limitations of fMRI. HD-DOT grids have smaller inter-optode spacing (~ 13 mm) than sparse fNIRS (~ 30 mm) and therefore provide higher image quality, with spatial resolution ~ 1/2 that of fMRI, when using the several source-detector distances (13-40 mm) afforded by the HD-DOT grid.
