Thanks...!
Medical imaging is the technique and process of creating visual representations of the interior of a body for clinical analysis and medical intervention, as well as visual representation of the function of some organs or tissues (physiology).
Calcitonin is a hormone that is produced in humans by the parafollicular cells (commonly known as C-cells) of the Thyroid Gland. Calcitonin is involved in helping to regulate levels of calcium and phosphate in the blood, opposing the action of Parathyroid Hormone. This means that it acts to reduce calcium levels in the blood. However, the importance of this role in humans is unclear, as patients who have very low or very high levels of calcitonin show no adverse effects.
Artificial Intelligence To Reduce Radiation-induced Cardiotoxicity In Lung Ca...Wookjin Choi
Traditionally, radiation-induced cardiotoxicity has been studied using cardiac radiation doses rather than functional imaging. We developed artificial intelligence (AI) models based on novel cardiac delta radiomics using pre- and post-treatment FDG-PET/CT scans to predict overall survival in lung cancer patients undergoing radiotherapy. We identified four clinically relevant delta radiomics features with the AI prediction models. The best model achieved an AUC of 0.91 on the training set and 0.87 on the test set. We are a pioneering group in AI for functional cardiac imaging. If validated, this approach will enable to use standard PET/CT scans as functional cardiac imaging with good predictive AUC for OS, as well as provide automated methods to provide functional cardiac information for clinical outcome prediction AI in lung cancer patients.
GDG Cloud Southlake #33: Boule & Rebala: Effective AppSec in SDLC using Deplo...James Anderson
Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).

Neuro-symbolic is not enough, we need neuro-*semantic*Frank van Harmelen
Neuro-symbolic (NeSy) AI is on the rise. However, simply machine learning on just any symbolic structure is not sufficient to really harvest the gains of NeSy. These will only be gained when the symbolic structures have an actual semantics. I give an operational definition of semantics as “predictable inference”.
All of this illustrated with link prediction over knowledge graphs, but the argument is general.

Elevating Tactical DDD Patterns Through Object CalisthenicsDorra BARTAGUIZ
After immersing yourself in the blue book and its red counterpart, attending DDD-focused conferences, and applying tactical patterns, you're left with a crucial question: How do I ensure my design is effective? Tactical patterns within Domain-Driven Design (DDD) serve as guiding principles for creating clear and manageable domain models. However, achieving success with these patterns requires additional guidance. Interestingly, we've observed that a set of constraints initially designed for training purposes remarkably aligns with effective pattern implementation, offering a more ‘mechanical’ approach. Let's explore together how Object Calisthenics can elevate the design of your tactical DDD patterns, offering concrete help for those venturing into DDD for the first time!
Epistemic Interaction - tuning interfaces to provide information for AI supportAlan Dix
Paper presented at SYNERGY workshop at AVI 2024, Genoa, Italy. 3rd June 2024
https://alandix.com/academic/papers/synergy2024-epistemic/
As machine learning integrates deeper into human-computer interactions, the concept of epistemic interaction emerges, aiming to refine these interactions to enhance system adaptability. This approach encourages minor, intentional adjustments in user behaviour to enrich the data available for system learning. This paper introduces epistemic interaction within the context of human-system communication, illustrating how deliberate interaction design can improve system understanding and adaptation. Through concrete examples, we demonstrate the potential of epistemic interaction to significantly advance human-computer interaction by leveraging intuitive human communication strategies to inform system design and functionality, offering a novel pathway for enriching user-system engagements.

What is Cardiac PET ?
How does a PET cardiac work ?
What is Cardiac CT?
Cardiac PET/CT
Advantages
Disadvantages
Mobile PET/CT
3. Cardiac PET
“ Positron Emission Tomography”
It’s is a noninvasive nuclear imaging test. It uses
radioactive tracers (called radionuclides) to produce
pictures of your heart.
allows quantification of
cardiac perfusion (physiology).
http://www.fac.org.ar/scvc/llave/image/macha
c/machf5b.jpg
4. How does Cardiac PET work ?
A radioactive tracer is injected into the bloodstream.
The tracers are mostly natural body compounds such
as water , ammonia or glucose
These compounds are labeled with radioactive
material
Radioactive material target the heart muscle
(mycardium) which produce energy and detected by
gamma camera
6. What is Cardiac CT?
“ Computed Tomography”
It’s a painless test that look for the anatomy of the
heart using X-ray machine.
X-ray machine will move around the patient and take
image for each view of the heart.
These images are combined to create a 3-D image.
Sometimes Iodine-based dye is injected to the vein to
highlight the coronary arteries ( angiography)
8. Cardiac PET/CT
This advanced hybrid modality allows physician to
examine the myocardium perfusion as well as the
assessment of coronary anatomy.
These two modalities done in a single session of less
than 45 minutes.
http://jnm.snmjournals.org/content/48/7/1112/F1.large.jpg
13. Advantages of PET/CT
Allow physicians to examine the myocardium function
as well as the coronary anatomy .
Obtaining higher quality of images .
Decrease the rate of misdiagnosis and false-positive.
By identifying a coronary lesions to area of ischemia in
fusion of anatomical and functional images, treatment
strategies can be made.
Less time
14. Disadvantages of PET/CT
Radiation burden is a concern
Less available
Costly
Greater maintenance costs
Short half-lives of radioisotopes
Some of the isotopes require on-site cycltron.
