One of the main issues is the discrepancy between the measured and actual oil volumes of used cooking oil (UCO). Using a measurement tank as the measuring medium and an ultrasonic sensor as the tool, a system was develop...

Abstract Sphenoid sinus fluid is considered a supportive indicator of drowning in forensic medicine, but traditional manual assessment on postmortem computed tomography (PMCT) is labor-intensive and observer-dependent. E...

BackgroundRobot-assisted simple prostatectomy (RASP) and laser enucleation of the prostate (LEP) are established surgical options for the treatment of large-volume benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH); however, consensus r...

Abstract Heart failure (HF) is a common disease resulting in high morbidity, mortality, and healthcare costs. An important cause of HF is mitral valve regurgitation (MR), which induces left ventricular remodeling and vol...

Background and purposeRadiotherapy (RT) often causes delayed radiation-induced brain injury (RBI) with unclear pathophysiology; emerging evidence links this to glymphatic dysfunction, but radiation effects on cerebrospin...

Abstract Background Despite the favorable toxicity profiles of whole breast radiotherapy, there are subgroups that tend to experience high toxicity. This study examines anatomical and physiological characteristics that c...

Abstract Purpose This study aims to introduce an effective protocol for transvaginal ethanol sclerotherapy, focussing on the aspiration of viscous cystic content and the amount of ethanol instilled in the cystic cavity a...

Traditional bibliometric indicators such as the h-index emphasize cumulative citation impact but provide limited insight into the efficiency and concentration of that impact across a researcher's publication portfolio. T...

La estimación hidrológica mediante cópulas se ha consolidado como una herramienta eficaz para representar la dependencia entre variables hidrológicas extremas. Este estudio presenta una metodología mejorada para la ...

ABSTRACT High‐resolution fluorescence microscopy deep inside thick, live specimens remains a major challenge due to scattering and limited penetration depth. Structured illumination microscopy (SIM) is widely used for ...

Abstract Objective New Zealand White (NZW) rabbits are widely used in interventional radiology research due to their suitability for human-sized treatment and imaging equipment, offering high translational potential. Thi...

Abstract Background Cardiomyopathy is a major complication of type 2 diabetes, whose prevalence continues to rise globally. Although major cardiology and endocrinology societies endorse exercise training to reduce cardio...

Estimating three-dimensional morphological traits such as volume from two-dimensional RGB images presents inherent challenges due to the loss of depth information, projection distortions, and occlusions under field condi...

Background: Leukemia is the most common childhood cancer. While tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) improve survival, they impose substantial economic burdens. This study evaluates the impact of China’s National Volume-B...

Free-breathing spine-based positioning/tracking in lung stereotactic body radiotherapy is required when direct tumor positioning is not possible. Respiratory baseline, motion and target position reproducibility interact ...

BackgroundHigh blood pressure (BP) is a known risk factor for dementia, but the relationships between BP and gross brain volumes are mixed and are understudied in groups who are at particularly high risk for dementia, su...

Objective and MethodTo achieve rapid coalbed methane (CBM) extraction from broken-soft coal seams using surface horizontal wells, this study proposed a volume fracturing technology for coal seam roof using horizontal wel...

Background: Laparoscopic cholecystectomy, though less invasive than open surgery, still causes notable post-operative pain from port site trauma and abdominal distension. Regional techniques such as transverse abdominis ...

El objetivo de esta revisión fue evaluar la utilidad clínica del volumen plaquetario medio (VPM) como biomarcador accesible y económico para el pronóstico en pacientes con neoplasias sólidas y hematológicas. Se rea...

Background and purpose: Image-guided radiotherapy (IGRT) for esophageal cancer requires large planning target volume (PTV) margins to account for interfraction variations, increasing radiation-associated side-effects. Co...

Abstract Objective Accurate preoperative stone size assessment is crucial for predicting outcomes after percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PCNL), yet a gap persists between the accurate but impractical gold standard (3D softw...

Background and purpose: Dose accumulation in reirradiation can contribute to both treatment outcomes and safe cumulative doses. We demonstrated consensus strategies on dose accumulation for three clinical reirradiation s...

Abstract Aims This study aimed to assess the three-dimensional effects of orthodontic premolar extraction in Class II division 1 malocclusion cases treated with fixed appliances on maxillary bony changes (alveolar bone t...
