Stroke Outcome Prediction using Vascular Imaging Features
This is a prediction method to determine the outcome of a stroke based on vascular images presented by the patient. This model predicts the 90-day functional outcome after ischemic stroke at a significantly higher accuracy than current models, to inform treatment decisions and patient selection. Machine learning models were employed and trained with...

Non-Imaging, Random-Sampling Second Harmonic Generation Measurements to Distinguish Colon Cancer
Second-harmonic generation (SHG) microscopy has emerged as a powerful modality for imaging fibrillar collagen in a diverse range of tissues. A preliminary study demonstrated that non-imaging, randomly sampled SHG intensity measurements are likely sufficient to distinguish normal colorectal tissue from tumor/tumor-adjacent tissue with digital simulation...
