The non-rigid multi-modal three-dimensional (3D) medical image registration is highly challenging due to the difficulty in the construction of similarity measure and the solution of non-rigid transformation parameters. A novel structural representati...
Background/Objectives: Optoacoustic imaging technologies are emerging as promising tools for clinical practice. Several systems have the potential to fill specific niches in the medical imaging landscape thanks to a unique performance based on the co...
The demand for cost-efficient manufacturing of complex metal components has driven research for metal Additive Manufacturing (AM) such as Wire + Arc Additive Manufacturing (WAAM). WAAM enables automated, time- and material-efficient manufacturing of...
Ultrasound-based engineering of carrier-free nanodrugs by supramolecular self-assembly has recently emerged as an innovative and environmentally friendly synthetic approach. By applying high-frequency sound waves (490 kHz) in aqueous solutions, the t...
The need to classify targets and features in high-resolution imagery is of interest in applications such as detection of landmines in ground penetrating radar and tumors in medical ultrasound images. Convolutional neural networks (CNNs) trained using...
Three-dimensional medical images, such as those obtained from MRI scans, offer a comprehensive view that aids in understanding complex shapes and abnormalities better than 2D images, such as X-ray, mammogram, ultrasound, and 2D CT slices. However, MR...
MOFs exhibit inherent extraordinary features for diverse applications ranging from catalysis, storage, and optics to chemosensory and biomedical science and technology. Several procedures including solvothermal, hydrothermal, mechanochemical, electro...
Intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) imaging offers accurate cross-sectional vessel information. To this end, registering temporal IVUS pullbacks acquired at two time points can assist the clinicians to accurately assess pathophysiological changes in the...
We report here the synthesis and structural characterization of novel cationic (phenothiazinyl)vinyl-pyridinium (PVP) dyes, together with optical (absorption/emission) properties and their potential applicability as fluorescent labels. Convective hea...
Cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) continue to be a major global health concern, representing a leading cause of morbidity and mortality. This review provides a comprehensive examination of CVDs, encompassing their pathophysiology, diagnostic biomarkers,...
The current study aims to explain recent developments in the synthesis of Pb(II)-azido metal-organic coordination polymers. Coordination polymers are defined as hybrid materials encompassing metal-ion-based, organic linkers, vertices, and ligands, se...
Small-diameter synthetic grafts often fail from thrombosis, intimal hyperplasia, and compliance mismatch, highlighting the need for alternatives that better support endothelialization and remodeling. Here, we evaluated multilayer plant-based vascular...
The proper function and longevity of the knee joint are ensured by the knee menisci. Their susceptibility to damage and injury is one of the main risk factors for rapid cartilage loss and the development of osteoarthritis. The vascularization pattern...
Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) remains one of the most aggressive malignancies, with overall survival outcomes that have improved only modestly in recent years. Careful preoperative evaluation is essential for defining resectability and plan...
In Mexico, the Ataulfo mango crop faces significant challenges due to anthracnose, a disease caused by the fungus Colletotrichum gloeosporioides. The need to use eco-friendly fungicides is crucial to avoid the use of harmful synthetic chemicals. This...
Voice onset is the sequence of events between the first detectable movement of the vocal folds (VFs) and the stable vibration of the vocal folds. It is considered a critical phase of phonation, and the different modalities of voice onset and their di...
