Masayo Takahashi received her M.D. in 1986, and her Ph.D. in 1992 from Kyoto University. After an assistant professorship in the Department of Ophthalmology, Kyoto University Hospital, she moved to the Salk Institute in 1995, where she discovered the potential of stem cells as a tool for retinal therapy. She returned to Kyoto University Hospital in 1997, and was appointed associate professor at the Translational Research Center in the same hospital in 2001. She joined the RIKEN as a team leader of the Lab for Retinal Regeneration in 2006. In 2013, her team launched a pilot clinical study of autologous iPS cell-derived RPE cell sheets for exudative aged-related macular degeneration (AMD), and performed the first RPE cell sheet graft transplantation in Sept. 2014. In 2017, the team started using allogeneic iPS cells suspension in the clinical study.
The technology supporting the analysis of human motion has advanced dramatically. Past decades of locomotion research have provided us with significant knowledge about the accuracy of tests performed, the understanding of the process of human locomotion, and how clinical testing can be used to evaluate medical disorders and affect their treatment. Gait analysis is now recognized as clinically useful and financially reimbursable for some medical conditions. Yet, the routine clinical use of gait analysis has seen very limited growth. The issue of its clinical value is related to many factors, including the applicability of existing technology to addressing clinical problems; the limited use of such tests to address a wide variety of medical disorders; the manner in which gait laboratories are organized, tests are performed, and reports generated; and the clinical understanding and expectations of laboratory results. Clinical use is most hampered by the length of time and costs required for performing a study and interpreting it. A “gait” report is lengthy, its data are not well understood, and it includes a clinical interpretation, all of which do not occur with other clinical tests. Current biotechnology research is seeking to address these problems by creating techniques to capture data rapidly, accurately, and efficiently, and to interpret such data by an assortment of modeling, statistical, wave interpretation, and artificial intelligence methodologies. The success of such efforts rests on both our technical abilities and communication between engineers and clinicians.

Capsule Endoscopy & Motorized Spiral Enteroscopy for Small Bowel ImagingYashodaHospitals
Many conditions of the small intestine affect digestive health and appetite. Intestinal obstruction due to bleeding, malformations or injury or hernia is a major diagnostic related to these problems. See how capsule endoscopy and spiral endoscopy enables the doctors to not only diagnose but treat the condition right away.
Glaucoma is a disease which leads to a permanent blindness to a person. Many techniques are available in medical industry to detect glaucoma. Some traditional techniques are HRT and COT. But both of them are cost effective and time consuming. These inefficiencies leads to the emergence of automatic computer aided system which can detect glaucoma in less time. Optic disc and optic cup smashes an important role in glaucoma detection. This paper gives an study of various techniques that are used in glaucoma detection using automated systems Sherin.

icometrix offers imaging biomarkers for anatomical MRI or CT images as well as for functional, diffusion and perfusion MR images.
Medical imaging serves as an endpoint in an increasing number of clinical trials for neurological disorders to evaluate the effectiveness of novel therapeutic options and to better understand the pathophysiology. It is critical to obtain objective imaging measurements.Therefore, the use of
high-quality MRI data and quantitative MRI biomarkers is also recommended in the latest guidelines of the European Medicine Agency on clinical investigation of medicinal products for treatment of dementia, multiple sclerosis and other neurological disorders.
Lung Cancer: Artificial Intelligence, Synergetics, Complex System Analysis, S...Oleg Kshivets
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.

The prostate is an exocrine gland of the male mammalian reproductive system
It is a walnut-sized gland that forms part of the male reproductive system and is located in front of the rectum and just below the urinary bladder
Function is to store and secrete a clear, slightly alkaline fluid that constitutes 10-30% of the volume of the seminal fluid that along with the spermatozoa, constitutes semen
A healthy human prostate measures (4cm-vertical, by 3cm-horizontal, 2cm ant-post ).
It surrounds the urethra just below the urinary bladder. It has anterior, median, posterior and two lateral lobes
It’s work is regulated by androgens which are responsible for male sex characteristics
Generalised disease of the prostate due to hormonal derangement which leads to non malignant enlargement of the gland (increase in the number of epithelial cells and stromal tissue)to cause compression of the urethra leading to symptoms (LUTS

How to Give Better Lectures: Some Tips for Doctors
The importance of clinical gait analysis
1. THE IMPORTANCE OF
CLINICAL GAIT ANALYSIS
THE CLINICAL IMPORTANCE OF
GAIT ANALYSIS
GERAINT DAVIES
SHEFFIELD CHILDREN’S HOSPITAL
2. WHAT IS CLINICAL GAIT
ANALYSIS?
Assembling the jigsaw:
• Clinical diagnosis
• Radiology
• Observational analysis
• Video
• Clinical examination
• Instrumented gait analysis: K;K;O2;EMG; etc
3. INSTRUMENTED GAIT ANALYSIS
• Measurement tool
• Natural history
• Feedback and assessment of
treatments
• Development of sophisticated models
• Improved understanding
4. GAIT ANALYSIS AND
PERCEPTION
• One must learn to see
• One sees only what one
has learned to see
• Seeing is not perception
• Perception is not
understanding

6. VISUAL GAIT ANALYSIS
• Perception in real time is difficult
• Analysis of events at the hip is suspect
• Edinburgh Visual Gait Score
• Slow motion/freeze frame video
• Pattern recognition
7. Objective measurement tools
• Kinematics
• Kinetics
• EMG
• Oxygen uptake
• Modelling
• Mapping
• Statistical power
• Measurement of
attributes/prerequisites
• Potential for predictive
treatment planning
8. IS GAIT ANALYSIS OF
BENEFIT?
CONCERNS WITH ACCURACY
•Skaggs 1999. Data of 7 patients to 12
institutions.
•Noonan 2003. Inter observer
variability of gait analysis in CP. 11
patients to 4 centres.
9. IS GAIT ANALYSIS OF BENEFIT?
• More powerful than visual analysis
• Outcomes improved in GA group
• Improvement correlates with adoption
of recommendations
• Allows statistical retrospective analysis
10. SUMMARY
• A tool for better
assessment
• An opportunity for
objective reflection
• A means to critically
evaluate treatments
• A means to improve
one’s imperfect
knowledge.
