Article Abstract

The time-consuming process of manual contouring of healthy tissue and organs in radiation therapy has prompted the development of computational systems to aid and automate this process, such as artificial intelligence (AI) segmentation and interpolation algorithms. These algorithms are useful in saving time, however, they are not always accurate. Fixing such inaccuracies by editing contours is a manual, time-consuming process as no 'undo' feature currently exists in the most commonly used treatment planning system (TPS). In this short technical report, we present our script for automated de-interpolation to enable faster editing of contours to streamline the adoption of AI-assisted methodologies to enhance clinical workflow.

Cognitive impairment and dementia, including Alzheimer's disease (AD), pose a global health crisis, necessitating non-invasive biomarkers for early detection. This review highlights the retina, an accessible extension of the central nervous system (CNS), as a window to cerebral pathology through structural, functional, and molecular alterations. By synthesizing interdisciplinary evidence, we identify retinal biomarkers as promising tools for early diagnosis and risk stratification.

Introduction: Vision language models (VLMs) combine image analysis capabilities with large language models (LLMs). Because of their multimodal capabilities, VLMs offer a clinical advantage over image classification models for the diagnosis of optic disc swelling by allowing a consideration of clinical context. In this study, we compare the performance of non-specialty-trained VLMs with different prompts in the classification of optic disc swelling on fundus photographs.

Deep learning has rapidly emerged as a promising toolkit for protein optimization, yet its success remains limited, particularly in the realm of activity. Moreover, most algorithms lack rigorous iterative evaluation, a crucial aspect of protein engineering exemplified by classical directed evolution. This study introduces DeepDE, a robust iterative deep learning-guided algorithm leveraging triple mutants as building blocks and a compact library of ∼1,000 mutants for training.
