Surgical Site Infections After External Ventricular Drain Placement: Incidence, Patient-Related, and Periprocedural Risk Factors

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: External ventricular drain (EVD) placement is a routine neurosurgical procedure for cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) diversion. Despite standardized procedures, a considerable risk of infection remains. While CSF EVD-related infections (EVD-RI) are common and have been extensively studied, surgical...

External validation of a machine learning-based web application for personalized testing of objective functioning using the five-repetition sit-to-stand test

Simple generalized thresholds for assessing functional impairment in clinical testing are limited, as they fail to consider patient-specific properties such as age, body height, and body mass index. A previously developed machine learning-based model for personalized testing using the five-repetition sit-to-stand (5R-S...

A standardized and reproducible pipeline for fast multi-view digitally reconstructed radiograph (DRR) generation

Digitally reconstructed radiographs (DRRs) are synthetic projections derived from computed tomography (CT) data and are increasingly used in 3D synthetic image generation. However, variability in preprocessing and projection frameworks limits reproducibility and comparability across studies. We present a standardized p...

Fully Automated Segmentation of Anatomical Subregions of the Thoracolumbar Spine on Computed Tomography.

This work aims to train a multiclass vertebral subregion segmentation model with different model architectures, using a standard nnU-Net, a nnU-Net with residual encoder, and a shifted window U-Net transformer for semantic segmentation of thoracolumbar spine CTs.

Evaluation metrics for synthetic medical imaging.

Evaluation strategies for synthetic medical imaging showed substantial variability and no single metric captured fidelity, realism, diversity, and clinical validity simultaneously, suggesting a task-specific, layered evaluation framework could improve comparability and facilitate clinical adoption.

Automated deep learning-based segmentation and volumetric analysis of meningiomas.

The deep learning model demonstrated high accuracy in segmenting meningiomas and modest performance for peritumoral edema on preoperative magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scans, support the potential utility of automated segmentation tools in clinical workflows.
