Introduction: Pulmonary embolism (PE) is a life-threatening condition with well-defined management strategies; however, the presence of a clot-in-transit (CIT)-a mobile thrombus within the right heart-introduces a uniquely high-risk scenario associated with a significantly elevated mortality rate. While several therapeutic approaches are available-including anticoagulation, systemic thrombolysis, surgical embolectomy, and catheter-directed therapies-there is no established consensus on a superior treatment modality. Catheter-based mechanical thrombectomy has emerged as a promising, minimally invasive alternative that mitigates the bleeding risks of systemic thrombolysis and the invasiveness of surgery.

Molecular imaging in nuclear medicine has been employed extensively in recent years for tumor-targeted diagnosis and treatment that is attributed to its non-invasive property, which enables visualized functional localization. This functionality relies on the development of radionuclide molecular probes designed with the objective of identifying specific targets on the surface of tumors. Epithelial cell adhesion molecules (EpCAM) are considered to be a promising target as an antigenic marker for its widely present and integral to the processes associated with tumor occurrence and progression.

Background: Periodontal disease is an inflammatory condition causing chronic damage to the tooth-supporting connective tissues, leading to tooth loss in adults. Diagnosing periodontitis requires clinical and radiographic examinations, with panoramic radiographs crucial in identifying and assessing its severity and staging. Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs), a deep learning method for visual data analysis, and Dense Convolutional Networks (DenseNet), which utilize direct feed-forward connections between layers, enable high-performance computer vision tasks with reduced computational demands.

Family socioeconomic status is broadly acknowledged to be associated with child development and wellbeing. However, the extent of this association across various dimensions of child development remains a topic of ongoing debate. This study aims to investigate the relationship between parental education and child cognitive and socioemotional skills, as well as the mediating role of children's leisure time activities, including screen time and shared book reading.

Background: In catheter-based radiofrequency ablation (RFA), energy is delivered to heterogeneous thin-walled tissues to induce therapeutic heating. Variations in electrical and mechanical properties of tissue contents have a great effect on outcomes.

Purpose: The objective of this study is to develop models that replicate tissue heterogeneity and visualize ablation zones for effective evaluation and optimization.
