Appropriate mechanical function of the uterine cervix is critical for maintaining a pregnancy
to term so that the fetus can develop fully. At the end of pregnancy, however, the cervix must …

The appropriate biomechanical function of the uterus is required for the execution of human
reproduction. These functions range from aiding the transport of the embryo to the …

Background & Aims Liver biopsy analysis is the standard method used to diagnose
nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). Advanced magnetic resonance imaging is a …

In this study, a novel deep learning-based methodology was investigated to predict breast
cancer response to neo-adjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) using the quantitative ultrasound …

Anti-cancer therapies including chemotherapy aim to induce tumour cell death. Cell death
introduces alterations in cell morphology and tissue micro-structures that cause measurable …

This study evaluated, for the first time, the efficacy of quantitative ultrasound (QUS) spectral
parametric maps in conjunction with texture-analysis techniques to differentiate non …

Purpose Accurate and timely diagnosis of breast carcinoma is very crucial because of its
high incidence and high morbidity. Screening can improve overall prognosis by detecting …

The efficacy of quantitative ultrasound (QUS) multi-parametric imaging in conjunction with
unsupervised classification algorithms was investigated for the first time in characterizing …

Purpose This study demonstrated the ability of quantitative ultrasound (QUS) parameters in
providing an early prediction of tumor response to neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) in …

Aim: To evaluate the association between cervical strain assessed with quasi-static
elastography and spontaneous preterm delivery. Methods: Quasi-static elastography was …
