Abstract In the course of latest COVID-19 flu epidemic, several projects have been carried out to test LD-based strategies for helping diagnosis lung diseases. Deeper learning (DL) has proven its effectiveness in radiography. Although present study relies on CT scans, DL interpreting pulmonary ultrasound (LUS) images are being used this article. specific, we a new, completely annotated LUS data...

We describe our development of a complete real-time stereoscopic augmented reality system that overlays laparoscopic ultrasound (LUS) images on stereoscopic laparoscopic video for conventional laparoscopic surgery. The system was designed and developed to achieve near-term clinical evaluation as a primary goal. Special consideration was paid to system interactivity, accuracy and easy integratio...

Young's modu lus and Poisso n's ratio have been measured simultaneously on a seri es of parti c ula te composites containing vo lume fractions of fill er up to 0.50. The co mposites consisted of small glass spheres im bedded in a ri gid e poxy polyme r matrix. The measured va lues were com pared with theOl·etica l values ca lc ulated from c urrent theories. A recentl y generalized and simplifie...

Th e article by Bataille et al 1 in CHEST (December 2014) represents a signifi cant advancement in the fi eld, not least because it demonstrates that lung ultrasonography (LUS) has serious limitations in patients with acute respiratory failure and that thoracic ultrasonography (TUS), which includes echocardiography, is preferable. Nevertheless, even if we consider Descartes’ observation that pe...

Abstract Background The mortality risk of chronic interstitial lung disease (ILD) is currently assessed using the ILD-GAP score. present study evaluates whether addition cardiopulmonary ultrasound parameters to score can further improve predictive value ILD-GAP. Methods Medical records from 91 patients with ILD hospitalized June 2015 March 2016 were retrospectively examined. Lung (LUS) score, r...

Abstract Background During the COVID-19 pandemic, creating tools to assess disease severity is one of most important aspects reducing burden on emergency departments. Lung ultrasound has a high accuracy for diagnosis pulmonary diseases; however, there are few prospective studies demonstrating that lung can predict outcomes in patients. We hypothesized score (LUS) at hospital admission could Thi...

Semantic Networks have been used p r i m a r i l y in na tu ra l language app l i ca t i ons to help disambiguate sentences and to understand na tu ra l language t e x t . In t h i s paper we consider the use of a semantic network to a id in the deduct ive search process of a Question-Answering (QA System. The semantic network is based on an adaptat i o n of the pred icate ca lcu lus and is des...
