Flow analysis carried out using phase contrast cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (PC-CMR) enables the quantification of important parameters that are used in the assessment of cardiovascular function. An essential part of this analysis is…
Machine-learning (ML) models in flow cytometry have the potential to reduce error rates, increase reproducibility, and boost the efficiency of clinical labs. While numerous ML models for flow cytometry data have been proposed, few studies…
Flow cytometry is a valuable technique that measures the optical properties of particles at a single-cell resolution. When deployed in the ocean, flow cytometry allows oceanographers to study different types of photosynthetic microbes…
Liquid biopsies (eg., blood draws) offer a less invasive and non-localized alternative to tissue biopsies for monitoring the progression of metastatic breast cancer (mBCa). Immunofluoresence (IF) microscopy is a tool to image and analyze…
Flow cytometry (FCM) is an analytic technique that is capable of detecting and recording the emission of fluorescence and light scattering of cells or particles (that are collectively called "events") in a population. A typical FCM…
Leukemia epitomizes the class of highly complex diseases that new technologies aim to tackle by using large sets of single-cell level information. Achieving such goal depends critically not only on experimental techniques but also on…
Recent advances in cancer research largely rely on new developments in microscopic or molecular profiling techniques offering high level of detail with respect to either spatial or molecular features, but usually not both. Here, we present…
Cells, other than their biological properties, have different electric and physical properties. In an impedance cytometer, cells should pass one by one in the detection region where pairs of electrodes are located. When cells are located…
Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia (ALL) is the most frequent hematologic malignancy in children and adolescents. A strong prognostic factor in ALL is given by the Minimal Residual Disease (MRD), which is a measure for the number of leukemic…
Collateral circulation results from specialized anastomotic channels which are capable of providing oxygenated blood to regions with compromised blood flow caused by ischemic injuries. The quality of collateral circulation has been…
Metastatic cancer cells detect the direction of lymphatic flow by self-communication: they secrete and detect a chemical which, due to the flow, returns to the cell surface anisotropically. The secretion rate is low, meaning detection noise…
To understand the biology of cancer, joint analysis of multiple data modalities, including imaging and genomics, is crucial. The involved nature of gene-microenvironment interactions necessitates the use of algorithms which treat both data…
Deep learning has achieved spectacular performance in image and speech recognition and synthesis. It outperforms other machine learning algorithms in problems where large amounts of data are available. In the area of measurement technology,…
Cancer histology reveals disease progression and associated molecular processes, and contains rich phenotypic information that is predictive of outcome. In this paper, we developed a computational approach based on deep learning to predict…
The principal component analysis (PCA), a mathematical tool commonly used in statistics, has recently been employed to interpret the $p_T$-dependent fluctuations of harmonic flow $v_n$ in terms of leading and subleading flow modes in heavy…
Methods for analysis of principal components in discrete data have existed for some time under various names such as grade of membership modelling, probabilistic latent semantic analysis, and genotype inference with admixture. In this paper…
Tracking and characterizing the blood uptake process within solid pancreatic tumors and the subsequent spatio-temporal distribution of red blood cells are critical to the clinical diagnosis of the cancer. This systematic computational study…
We suggest a new multimodal imaging technique for quantitatively measuring the integral (thickness-average) refractive index of the nuclei of live biological cells in suspension. For this aim, we combined quantitative phase microscopy with…
Dynamic susceptibility-weighted contrast-enhanced (DSC) MRI or perfusion-MRI plays an important role in the non-invasive assessment of tumor vascularity. However, the large number of images provided by the method makes display and…
The spread of metastases is a crucial process in which some questions remain unanswered. In this work, we focus on tumor cells circulating in the bloodstream, the so-called Circulating Tumor Cells (CTCs). Our aim is to characterize their…
