Article Abstract
In optical coherence tomography (OCT), axial resolution and signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) are typically viewed as uncoupled parameters. We show that this is true only for mirror-like surfaces and that in diffuse scattering samples such as biological tissues there is an inherent coupling between axial resolution and measurement SNR. We explain the origin of this coupling and demonstrate that it can be used to achieve increased imaging penetration depth at the expense of resolution. Finally, we argue that this coupling should be considered during OCT system design processes that seek to balance the competing needs of resolution, sensitivity, and system/source complexity.

Purpose: To evaluate the acute anatomical changes of Bruch's membrane opening (BMO) and optic nerve head (ONH) pit depth in patients receiving 0.05cc of anti-VEGF intravitreal injections (IVIs).
Methods: We prospectively enrolled patients receiving IVIs and collected data including age, sex, race, phakic status, presence or absence of glaucoma, injection agent utilized, axial length, and cup-to-disc ratio (C/D).

Background: Employing 2D rebinned sinograms in PET scanners has the potential to accelerate the overall reconstruction speed. Among the available rebinning techniques, Single-Slice Rebinning (SSRB) offers a computationally efficient approach.
Objective: This study aimed to evaluate the influence of varying span and Maximum Ring Difference (MRD) parameters in SSRB on the image quality of the Xtrim PET scanner.

Existing microscopy approaches are often unable to identify and contextualize rare but biologically meaningful events due to limitations associated with simultaneously achieving both high-resolution imaging and a cm-scale field of view. Here, we present multiscale cleared tissue axially swept light-sheet microscopy (MCT-ASLM), a platform combining cm-scale imaging with targeted high-resolution interrogation of intact tissues in human-guided or autonomous modes. Capable of capturing fields of view up to 21 mm at micron-scale resolution, MCT-ASLM can seamlessly transition to a targeted imaging mode with an isotropic resolution that approaches ∼300 nm.

This article introduces a dataset of computed tomography (CT) scans of the paranasal sinuses collected from 6 distinct hospitals, using 4 different CT devices, and ensuring diverse recording conditions. The dataset includes CT axial scans from 40 subjects, 13 of which were manually annotated with a semantic segmentation of the osseous structures of the area surrounding the paranasal sinuses, while the remaining 27 subjects contain unannotated CT scans. The data was organized into raw DICOM files and was also stored as uncompressed PNG images.

The rising prevalence of multidrug-resistant (MDR) foodborne pathogens, particularly spp., necessitates alternative antimicrobial solutions. Phage therapy offers a promising solution against MDR Gram-negative infections; however, its clinical application is constrained by the presence of endotoxins, residual cellular debris, the risk of horizontal gene transfer by temperate phages, and an incomplete understanding of how phage structural integrity influences infectivity and enzyme function.
