Patients suffering from pulmonary diseases typically exhibit pathological lung ventilation in terms of homogeneity. Electrical Impedance Tomography (EIT) is a non-invasive imaging method that allows to analyze and quantify the distribution…
Human breath contains a myriad of endogenous volatile organic compounds (VOCs) which are reflective of ongoing metabolic or physiological processes. While research into the diagnostic potential and general medical relevance of these trace…
Electrical impedance tomography (EIT) is a noninvasive imaging modality that allows a continuous assessment of changes in regional bioimpedance of different organs. One of its most common biomedical applications is monitoring regional…
Objective Brain Age Index (BAI), calculated from sleep electroencephalography (EEG), has been proposed as a biomarker of brain health. This study quantifies night-to-night variability of BAI and establishes probability thresholds for…
Slow wave sleep duration and spectral abnormalities are related to both epilepsy and depression, but it is unclear how depressive symptoms in patients with epilepsy are affected by slow wave sleep duration and clinical factors, and how the…
Preterm infants with very low birth weight suffer from a high risk of intra-ventricular hemorrhage(IVH) and other serious diseases. To improve the clinical risk assessment of preterm infants and develop potential clinically makers for the…
Pulmonary hypertension (PH) in newborns is a critical condition characterized by elevated pressure in the pulmonary arteries, leading to right ventricular strain and heart failure. While right heart catheterization (RHC) is the diagnostic…
Efficient management of low blood pressure (BP) in preterm neonates remains challenging with a considerable variability in clinical practice. The ability to assess preterm wellbeing during episodes of low BP will help to decide when and…
Objective: To study to what extent or durations of ventilation effect in a single no-decompression dive of 12 meters to a diver. Methods: There are 29 healthy volunteers divers assigned into SCUBA diving of 12m-depth underwater (the…
Traditional clinical approaches for assessing nasality, such as nasopharyngoscopy and nasometry, involve unpleasant experiences and are problematic for children. Speech Inversion (SI), a noninvasive technique, offers a promising alternative…
The complexity of mathematical models describing respiratory mechanics has grown in recent years, however, parameter identifiability of such models has only been studied in the last decade in the context of observable data. This study…
Electronic health record (EHR) data are increasingly used for biomedical research, but these data have recognized data quality challenges. Data validation is necessary to use EHR data with confidence, but limited resources typically make…
A wireless wearable Electrical Impedance Tomography (EIT) system has been developed utilizing the AD5933 chip to achieve real-time imaging of lung respiration. The system employs a voltage excitation method tailored to human impedance…
Intra-voxel incoherent motion (IVIM) analysis of fetal lungs Diffusion-Weighted MRI (DWI) data shows potential in providing quantitative imaging bio-markers that reflect, indirectly, diffusion and pseudo-diffusion for non-invasive fetal…
The purpose of research was to check up the influence of decrease of nonequality of ventilating (after bronchodilator (berotec) inhalation (BI)) on the magnitude of dynamic compliance of lungs (Cdyn) at asthma patients with ventilating…
A number of inhibitory and excitatory factors regulate the beating of the heart. Consequently, the inter-beat intervals (IBIs) are not constant but vary around a mean value, even in the absence of external factors like exercise or stress.…
This paper presents a monotonicity-based spatiotemporal conductivity imaging method for continuous regional lung monitoring using electrical impedance tomography (EIT). The EIT data (i.e., the boundary current-voltage data) can be…
Electrical Impedance Tomography (EIT) is a functional imaging method that is being developed for bedside use in critical care medicine. Aiming at improving the chest anatomical resolution of EIT images we developed a fuzzy model based on…
Diagnosing epilepsy is challenging when routine EEGs lack interictal epileptiform discharges (IEDs). Intermittent photic stimulation (IPS) and hyperventilation (HV) can increase diagnostic yield, but their interpretation is subjective. We…
Isothermal rebreathing has been proposed as an experimental technique for estimating the alveolar levels of hydrophilic volatile organic compounds (VOCs) in exhaled breath. Using the prototypic test compound acetone we demonstrate that the…
