In this paper, we propose an automated biliary tract extraction method from abdominal CT
volumes. The biliary tract is the path by which bile is transported from liver to the duodenum. …

Purpose Fusion angiography using reconstructed multidetector-row computed tomography (MDCT)
images, and cholangiography using reconstructed images from MDCT with a …

(in English) In this paper, we propose a method for automated extraction of the biliary tract
from abdominal contrast CT volumes based on local intensity structure analysis. Our method …

(in English) In this paper, we propose a segmentation method of bile duct (BD) from abdominal
CT volumes. In order to classify voxels into BD or its surrounding tissues, our method …

High expression levels of TrkB and BDNF are associated with aggressive malignant behavior
in tumor cells and a poor prognosis in patients with various types of cancer. In this study, …

Programmed death ligand 1 (PD-L1) expression as a predictive biomarker for programmed
cell death 1 (PD-1) inhibitor efficacy in gastric cancer (GC) remains controversial. We …

We investigate two-component ultracold fermions loaded into a decorated square lattice,
which are described by the Hubbard model with repulsive interactions and nearest-neighbor …

Purpose To evaluate common hepatic duct just distal to the HE anastomosis (d-CHD)
prospectively for mucosal damage, inflammation, fibrosis, dysplasia, carcinoma in situ, malignant …

When adult rat hepatocytes were cultured in a serum-free, hormone-supplemented medium
containing 1 mM of Ca 2+ , DNA synthesis was induced in about 50% of hepatocytes. …
