Article Abstract

This paper presents the implementation of a virtual training program for enumerators conducting Time and Motion Studies using the WOMBAT methodology, as part of a project assessing healthcare workflows before the adoption of an Electronic Health Record system. The training employed digital tools, including Zoom meetings, Google Forms, the WOMBAT App, and AI-generated scenario images, to simulate clinical settings. The program successfully prepared observers for data collection, with high agreement among them. Even though its limitations, this study shares a remote training approach for TMS in geographically dispersed contexts, with potential for further integration of AI tools.

Background: In clinical practice, digital subtraction angiography (DSA) often suffers from misregistration artifact resulting from voluntary, respiratory, and cardiac motion during acquisition. Most prior efforts to register the background DSA mask to subsequent postcontrast images rely on key point registration using iterative optimization, which has limited real-time application.

Purpose: Leveraging state-of-the-art, unsupervised deep learning, we aim to develop a fast, deformable registration model to substantially reduce DSA misregistration in craniocervical angiography without compromising spatial resolution or introducing new artifacts.

Introduction: External continuous perturbations using a motion platform have been developed by employing either sum-of-sines (SoS) or a pseudorandom ternary sequence (PRTS) of numbers to quantify body sway evoked in the medial-lateral (ML) or anterior-posterior (AP) directions, which ultimately helps understand the human postural control system. These stimuli have been provided via pitch tilts of the motion platform for evaluations of AP balance responses or roll tilts for ML balance responses. However, little is known about whether a healthy postural control system responds to 2-dimensional (2D) perturbations similarly when the perturbation stimuli are provided in semicircular canal coordinates (i.

Unveiling the Riddoch phenomenon: a regression analysis of stroke-induced homonymous hemianopia.

Division of Neurology, Department of Medicine, Faculty of Medicine, Ramathibodi Hospital, Mahidol University, Bangkok, Thailand.

Introduction: A subset of patients with homonymous hemianopia can consciously perceive motion within their blind visual fields-a phenomenon known as the Riddoch phenomenon. However, the factors predicting this residual motion perception remain poorly understood. This study aims to identify clinical and neuroanatomical predictors of the Riddoch phenomenon in stroke patients.

Background: Four-dimensional magnetic resonance imaging (4D-MRI) holds great promise for precise abdominal radiotherapy guidance. However, current 4D-MRI methods are limited by an inherent trade-off between spatial and temporal resolutions, resulting in compromised image quality characterized by low spatial resolution and significant motion artifacts, hindering clinical implementation. Despite recent advancements, existing methods inadequately exploit redundant frame information and struggle to restore structural details from highly undersampled acquisitions.

Understanding gastric physiology in rodents is critical for advancing preclinical neurogastroenterology research. However, existing techniques are often invasive, terminal, or limited in resolution. This study aims to develop a non-invasive, standardized MRI protocol capable of capturing whole-stomach dynamics in anesthetized rats with high spatiotemporal resolution.
