Technical details are provided on adopting the ParaView platform for 3D image retrieval and developing interfaces for image uploading and wallpaper retrieval.
Digital pathology and its importance as an omics data layerYves Sucaet
Bioinformatics and pathology are obvious scientific partners. Bioinformatics often takes places at the most basic (almost chemical, or even physical) level of life, but much of its procedures to obtain data are destructive. Pathology on the other hand takes place at a much more coarse level of data acquisition (usually where the physical properties of visible light end), but has the advantage of being rooted in the tradition of medicine. The traditional paradigm of pathology is "tissue is the issue". Morphology (exactly the component that often gets overlooked in bioinformatics) plays a large role and helps millions of patients each year around the world. Pathology is proven technology, bioinformatics is limited to niche applications.
With the development of whole slide imaging technology some twenty years ago, digital pathology became possible. Observations that used to be for the eyes of the pathologist only, could now be captured and translated into high-resolution pixels, and studied by and communicated to many. Many began to dream of automated tissue evaluation systems and AI-pathology, some even going as far as to suggest the replacement of the pathologist by intelligent computer systems.
Meanwhile in several areas of bioinformatics, new limits are being hit. Yes, we can do high-throughput experiments, but noisy datasets are often the results, (inter- and even intra-observer) replicability is difficult, and statistics only offer limited relief.
The goal of this introductory lecture is to highlight the problems as well as opportunities for both fields of study, and how exchange of experiences, and (in a later stadium) integration of techniques close the scientific gap that still exists in a great many areas.
There is no lack of pathology-centric workshops that offer insights into the world of algorithms. With the CPW event however, we take another approach. We want to bring together the most advanced groups in digital pathology, with the bioinformatics community, to explore the opportunities that exist on both sides of the fence.
We start by explaining the basic data types that are introduced by digital pathology. We also explain where they come from, and why this presents unique challenges when it comes to data mining and image analysis. Finally, we introduce PMA.start, a free software environment that can be used to universally gain access to digital pathology (imaging) data.
Bioinformatics groups can help quantify, model, and reduce morphological whole tissue data. Pathologists can help interpret and explain heterogeneous high-throughput datasets. And the first seeds of such collaboration can be planted right here, in Athens.

A global integrative ecosystem for digital pathology: how can we get there?Yves Sucaet
Digital pathology has many faces. Its stakeholders can roughly be classified into four categories: education, research, clinical, and clinical research. We come together at events like Pathology Informatics or Pathology Visions, and discuss the evolution of the field.
While progression is being made, it sometimes appears that around every corner are more challenges and forks in the road. New applications and scenarios emerge at a rapid pace, and it is clear that a single one-size-fits-all type of software is unlikely to satisfy most participants in this space, if any.
At the institutional level, ecosystems of digital pathology have already been established. At a national level, attempts are being made. At a global level, this is still a wide open question, but one very much worth exploring.
Digital pathology comes with some unique properties, like the data it generates and the pace at which this happens. This guest lecture then will examine the solutions that already exist, and what an inclusive global scalable digital pathology ecosystem may look like in the future.
The aim of the 3DOR Workshop series is to stimulate researchers from different fields to present state-of-the-art work in the field. 3DOR 2013 took place as the 6th workshop in this series on May 11, 2013 in Girona (Spain), in conjunction with Eurographics 2013. Prof. Henning Muller presented the keynote talk about Medical 3D data retrieval.

Retrieval and Ranking of Biomedical Images using Boosted Haar FeaturesMelanie Torres Bisbal
Presentation and summary of the paper:
Retrieval and Ranking of Biomedical Images using Boosted Haar Features, Chandan K. Reddy and Fahima A. Bhuyan
Abstract of the paper:
Abstract— Retrieving similar images from large repository of heterogeneous biomedical images has been a difficult research task. In this paper, we develop a retrieval system that uses Haar features as its weak classifiers and builds strong training models using the adaboost algorithm. Our system is trained for each image category separately and the final boosted model is stored during the training phase. In the test phase, the most similar images for a given query image are computed using these boosted models. The main advantages of the proposed system are (1) cheap computation of the most relevant features for each image category and (2) fast retrieval of similar images for a given query image. Using performance metrics such as sensitivity and specificity, our results demonstrate the robustness and accuracy of the proposed system.

In this talk I'll discuss work in biomedical image and volume segmentation and classification, as well as outcome prediction modeling from insurance claims data that I've pursued at LifeOmic here in the Triangle. In the former case datasets include radiological image volumes, retinal fundus images, and cell images created with fluorescent microscopy. The latter includes MIMIC-III data represented as FHIR objects. I'll discuss the relative challenges and advantages of doing ML locally vs. on a cloud-based platform.
PROCESSING AND ANALYSIS OF DIGITAL IMAGES: HOW TO ENSURE THE QUALITY OF DATA ...rtme
It is a common activity for researchers in materials science, the constant use of scanned images generated
by electron microscopes. While virtually all equipment that generate these images (micrographs) can use a
file type most suitable for capturing image data generated (as TIFF or RAW files in case of metallography),
many researchers choose to use a file format more common as JPEG, for example, perhaps the reason of
the space available on portable storage devices (USB, CD or DVD) that owns, or by the lack of knowledge
about the types of image files and their appropriate use. The problem with the use of certain types of image
formats is mainly the loss of the original data captured by an electron microscope. As if that were not
enough, the application of filters and processes in the original image must also be carefully crafted so as
not to lose or change data captured or data relevant to the study. This article seeks to highlight the
treatment of images in research and publications done by researchers with no knowledge of this matter,
since the use of scanned images is only a resource to continue the progress of their own research.
Furthermore, this article aims to promote a discussion on how to treat the problem of digital images
published in scientific papers so that researches can really be replicated in full.
A brief retrospective of selected projects elaborated at the Multimedia and Vision Laboratory in the Universidad del Valle. This talk was presented by teleconference to Universidad Señor de Sipán, Peru.
This presentation was presented during the PERICLES workshop entitled “automated capture of the environment in a sheer curation context”, which took place at the 10th International Digital Curation Conference on the 11 Feb 2015 in London, UK.

Acute scrotum is a general term referring to an emergency condition affecting the contents or the wall of the scrotum.
There are a number of conditions that present acutely, predominantly with pain and/or swelling
A careful and detailed history and examination, and in some cases, investigations allow differentiation between these diagnoses. A prompt diagnosis is essential as the patient may require urgent surgical intervention
Testicular torsion refers to twisting of the spermatic cord, causing ischaemia of the testicle.
Testicular torsion results from inadequate fixation of the testis to the tunica vaginalis producing ischemia from reduced arterial inflow and venous outflow obstruction.
The prevalence of testicular torsion in adult patients hospitalized with acute scrotal pain is approximately 25 to 50 percent

RESULTS: Overall life span (LS) was 2252.1±1742.5 days and cumulative 5-year survival (5YS) reached 73.2%, 10 years – 64.8%, 20 years – 42.5%. 513 LCP lived more than 5 years (LS=3124.6±1525.6 days), 148 LCP – more than 10 years (LS=5054.4±1504.1 days).199 LCP died because of LC (LS=562.7±374.5 days). 5YS of LCP after bi/lobectomies was significantly superior in comparison with LCP after pneumonectomies (78.1% vs.63.7%, P=0.00001 by log-rank test). AT significantly improved 5YS (66.3% vs. 34.8%) (P=0.00000 by log-rank test) only for LCP with N1-2. Cox modeling displayed that 5YS of LCP significantly depended on: phase transition (PT) early-invasive LC in terms of synergetics, PT N0—N12, cell ratio factors (ratio between cancer cells- CC and blood cells subpopulations), G1-3, histology, glucose, AT, blood cell circuit, prothrombin index, heparin tolerance, recalcification time (P=0.000-0.038). Neural networks, genetic algorithm selection and bootstrap simulation revealed relationships between 5YS and PT early-invasive LC (rank=1), PT N0—N12 (rank=2), thrombocytes/CC (3), erythrocytes/CC (4), eosinophils/CC (5), healthy cells/CC (6), lymphocytes/CC (7), segmented neutrophils/CC (8), stick neutrophils/CC (9), monocytes/CC (10); leucocytes/CC (11). Correct prediction of 5YS was 100% by neural networks computing (area under ROC curve=1.0; error=0.0).
CONCLUSIONS: 5YS of LCP after radical procedures significantly depended on: 1) PT early-invasive cancer; 2) PT N0--N12; 3) cell ratio factors; 4) blood cell circuit; 5) biochemical factors; 6) hemostasis system; 7) AT; 8) LC characteristics; 9) LC cell dynamics; 10) surgery type: lobectomy/pneumonectomy; 11) anthropometric data. Optimal diagnosis and treatment strategies for LC are: 1) screening and early detection of LC; 2) availability of experienced thoracic surgeons because of complexity of radical procedures; 3) aggressive en block surgery and adequate lymph node dissection for completeness; 4) precise prediction; 5) adjuvant chemoimmunoradiotherapy for LCP with unfavorable prognosis.
