In order to diagnose hepatocellular carcinoma early, patients at risk should be enrolled in a surveillance program. The population at risk is usually defined as patients with cirrhosis. These patients should have twice a year a ultrasonographic examination of the liver. However, more and more ...
Cystic echinococcosis is usually easy to diagnose using an ultrasound image. It is, however, occasionally difficult to distinguish it from other liver tumours. In these cases, other diagnostic tools, such as serological tests, are used. False positive or false negative reactions, however, may ...
providing a more detailed view of the tumor microenvironment. Artificial intelligence with the aid of advanced deep learning (DL) algorithms has been highly effective in training computer systems to diagnose and classify neoplastic lesions in multiple ...

dangerous pathogen. The need to diagnose clinically silent HBV infections was a strong driving force in the development of modern virus diagnostics. HBsAg was the first infection marker to be assayed with a highly sensitive radio immune assay. HBV itself was among the first viruses to be detected...
摘要: Very deep. High feed costs and a collapse in milk prices create the worst financial squeeze for dairies since the Great Depressic Now the question is: Will its effects linger for years or decades. A RISING TIDE lifts all boats" is an old saying that financial folks like to use whe...
It’s true — sometimes someone needs to physically look at your machine to diagnose whatever’s ailing it. There’s only so much that can be done over email or phone, and even remote access (with someone you trust!) can’t handle every situation. ...
LI-RADS provides a standardized and rigorous imaging system that aims to improve clinical practice for the care of patients with or at risk for HCC. Although CT/MRI and CEUS LI-RADS diagnose HCC in at-risk patients with comparably high specificity and PPV, clinicians should be aware of the ...
Some years later this was recognized to be the HBV surface antigen (HBsAg). Detection of HBsAg allowed for the first time screening of inapparently infected blood donors for a dangerous pathogen. The need to diagnose clinically silent HBV infections was a strong driving force in the development ...
MRI methods, including magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS), provide a means to diagnose steatosis quantitatively. These methods have high diagnostic accuracy, including for low-grade steatosis (5–33%), and have low interobserver variability compared with other imaging modalities [58,63,64,65]. ...
