Clinical Utility of Dual-Energy CT for Detection, Characterization, and Staging of Lung Tumors: A Rapid Review

Background/Objectives: Lung cancer remains one of the leading causes of cancer-related mortality worldwide. Conventional computed tomography (CT) is the preferred imaging modality for evaluating pulmonary nodules because of its high spatial resolution; however, it primarily provi...

Systems Bioengineering of Septic Shock Metabolism: Citrulline, β-Hydroxybutyrate and Plasma Biomarker-Based Phenotyping

Background: Although advances in critical care have improved short-term outcomes, sepsis survivors continue to face substantial chronic morbidity and impaired long-term survival. Conventional threshold-based tools such as the Sequential Organ Failure Assessment (SOFA) and Modifie...

The Cost of the Cure: Antibiotic Exposure as a Risk Factor for Irritable Bowel Syndrome

The intricate interplay between the gut microbiome and the enteric nervous system remains a paramount focus in understanding the multifactorial pathogenesis of disorders of gut–brain interaction (DGBI), most notably irritable bowel syndrome (IBS). While the clinical entity of pos...

Clinician-Guided Deep Learning Segmentation of Skull Base Pneumatization on Computed Tomography Using 3D Slicer and MONAI Label

Skull base pneumatization is anatomically variable and clinically relevant to temporal bone and transsphenoidal surgical corridors, but manual volumetric segmentation is time-consuming. This retrospective pilot study evaluated a clinician-guided deep learning workflow for mastoid...
