  • Mount Sinai Vascular Surgeons Among First in Nation to Treat Complex Aortic Aneurysm with New Device
    A PUBLICATION OF THE MOUNT SINAI HEALTH SYSTEM May 2 - 22, 2016 Mount Sinai Vascular Surgeons Among First in Nation To Treat Complex Aortic Aneurysm With New Device Physicians at The Mount Sinai Hospital were among the first in the nation to implant an investigational device, a fabric and metal mesh tube known as a stent graft, as part of a clinical trial to treat aneurysms located in the thoracic/abdominal area of the aorta. Mount Sinai is one of only six institutions in the nation granted approval by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration to test the safety and initial feasibility of the device in patients. The stent graft is used to strengthen the inner lining of the aorta—the main artery that carries blood from the heart to organs—in patients where the aortic walls have weakened and caused a balloon-type bulge known as an aneurysm to grow. Once implanted, the device serves to direct blood From left: Rami O. Tadros, MD, FACS; James F. McKinsey, MD, FACS; and Michael L.

  • Artificial Intelligence Platform Screens for Acute Neurological Illnesses 13 August 2018
    Artificial intelligence platform screens for acute neurological illnesses 13 August 2018 for detecting a wide range of acute neurologic events and to demonstrate a direct clinical application. Researchers used 37,236 head CT scans to train a deep neural network to identify whether an image contained critical or non-critical findings. The platform was then tested in a blinded, randomized controlled trial in a simulated clinical environment where it triaged head CT scans based on severity. The computer software was tested for how quickly it could recognize and provide notification versus the time it took a radiologist to notice a disease. The average time for the computer algorithm to preprocess an image, run its inference method, and, if necessary, raise an alarm was 150 times shorter than for physicians to read the image. This study used "weakly supervised learning approaches," which built on the research team's Credit: CC0 Public Domain expertise in natural language processing and the Mount Sinai Health System's large clinical datasets. Dr. Oermann says the next phase of this research will entail enhanced computer labeling of CT scans An artificial intelligence platform designed to and a shift to "strongly supervised learning identify a broad range of acute neurological approaches" and novel techniques for increasing illnesses, such as stroke, hemorrhage, and data efficiency.

  • Local Cerebral Blood Flow Measured by CT After Stable Xenon Inhalation
    213 Local Cerebral Blood Flow Measured by CT After Stable Xenon Inhalation John Stirling Meyer 1 A safe, practical, clinically applicable, noninvasive method for measuring local L. Anne Hayman2 cerebral blood flow (LCBF) using inert xenon (XeS) and a 60 sec CT scanner has been Masahiro Yamamoto 1 developed in the baboon. Direct measurement of expired Xes concentration after short Fumihiko Sakai1 inhalation (4-7 min) of 40% Xes and the use of computer-programmed autoradiographic 1 formulas allow accurate, reproducible measurements of LCBF using serial 60 sec scans Shinji Nakajima 3 of regions as small as 0.04 cm • LCBF measurements are possible with a Single 1 min scan. The method reduces radiation exposure, obviates a costly fourth-generation scanner, avoids anesthetic effects of Xes, and reduces the 30 min/ scan saturation period. It is less expensive than emission tomography and minimizes problems of overlap and Compton scatter inherent in 133Xe and positron-emission blood flow measurements. Regions of zero perfusion are demonstrable in three dimensions. Tissue solubility and partition coefficients, as well as LCBF, are measured in vivo with high resolution and reproducibility so that minor regional changes in physical properties of tissue that alter solubility are measured. These enhance the potential clinical usefulness of CT scanning. Measurement of cerebral blood flow using stable xenon (XeS) computed tom­ ographic (CT) scanning has been largely confined to animal models for several reasons [1-6]. Anesthetic properties of high concentrations of Xes, expense, high radiation dosage from excessive serial scans, time, and personnel necessary for prolonged studies involving immobilized patients have limited clinical imple­ mentation.

  • Artificial Intelligence Platform Screens for Acute Neurological Illnesses at Mount Sinai
    Artificial intelligence platform screens for acute neurological illnesses at Mount Sinai eurekalert.org/pub_releases/2018-08/tmsh-aip080718.php Public Release: 13-Aug-2018 The study's findings lay the framework for applying deep learning and computer vision techniques to radiological imaging The Mount Sinai Hospital / Mount Sinai School of Medicine (New York - August 13, 2018) An artificial intelligence platform designed to identify a broad range of acute neurological illnesses, such as stroke, hemorrhage, and hydrocephalus, was shown to identify disease in CT scans in 1.2 seconds, faster than human diagnosis, according to a study conducted at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai and published today in the journal Nature Medicine. "With a total processing and interpretation time of 1.2 seconds, such a triage system can alert physicians to a critical finding that may otherwise remain in a queue for minutes to hours," says senior author Eric Oermann, MD, Instructor in the Department of Neurosurgery at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai. "We're executing on the vision to develop artificial intelligence in medicine that will solve clinical problems and improve patient care." This is the first study to utilize artificial intelligence for detecting a wide range of acute neurologic events and to demonstrate a direct clinical application. Researchers used 37,236 head CT scans to train a deep neural network to identify whether an image contained critical or non-critical findings. The platform was then tested in a blinded, randomized controlled trial in a simulated clinical environment where it triaged head CT scans based on severity.

  • Magnetic Resonance Imaging of Brain Iron
    373 Magnetic Resonance Imaging of Brain Iron Burton Drayer" 2 A prominently decreased signal intensity in the globus pallidum, reticular substantia Peter Burger nigra, red nucleus, and dentate nucleus was routinely noted in 150 consecutive individ­ Robert Darwin' uals on T2-weighted images (SE 2000/100) using a high field strength (1.5 T) MR system. Stephen Riederer' This MR finding correlated closely with the decreased estimated T2 relaxation times Robert Herfkens' and the sites of preferential accumulation of ferric iron using the Perls staining method on normal postmortem brains. The decreased signal intensity on T2-weighted images G. Allan Johnson' thus provides an accurate in vivo map of the normal distribution of brain iron. Perls stain and MR studies in normal brain also confirm an intermediate level of iron distribution in the striatum, and still lower levels in the cerebral gray and white matter. In the white matter, iron concentration is (a) absent in the most posterior portion of the internal capsule and optic radiations, (b) higher in the frontal than occipital regions, and (c) prominent in the subcortical " U" fibers, particularly in the temporal lobe. There is no iron in the brain at birth; it increases progressively with aging. Knowledge of the distribution of brain iron should assist in elucidating normal anatomic structures and in understand­ ing neurodegenerative, demyelinating, and cerebrovascular disorders. It has been suggested that magnetic resonance (MR) , aside from producing exquisite anatomic images, may also provide unique biochemical information about brain function . Early attempts at Na-23 and P-31 imaging and spectroscopy have been promising but time-consuming.
