China-Japan Union Hospital of Jilin University 4 articles published in JoVE Medicine Three-Dimensional Modeling of the Left Atrium and Pulmonary Veins with a Precise Intracardiac Echocardiography Approach Xue Xia1, Huan Sun1, Xiuming Zhou2, Daoyuan Si1, Qini Zhao1, Yuquan He1, Hongliang Yang1 1Cardiology Department, China-Japan Union Hospital of Jilin University, 2Qianwei Hospital of Jilin Province Accurate intracardiac echocardiography (ICE) shows significant accuracy in estimating the left atrial structure, a prospective and promising cardiac structure estimation method. Here we propose a protocol for three-dimensional modeling of the left atrium and pulmonary veins with ICE and fast anatomical mapping (FAM) catheter remodeling. Medicine Estimating Bilateral Atrial Function by Cardiovascular Magnetic Resonance Feature Tracking in Patients with Paroxysmal Atrial Fibrillation Yanjing Wang1, Hang Gao1, Yi Li1, Huan Sun*2, Lin Liu*1 1Radiology Department, China-Japan Union Hospital of Jilin University, 2Cardiology Department, China-Japan Union Hospital of Jilin University The atrial function is associated with the strain and strain rate. The cardiac magnetic resonance feature tracking (CMR-FT) technique was used in this study to quantify left and right atrial global and segmental longitudinal strain and strain rate in individuals with paroxysmal atrial fibrillation.

Cancer Research Selecting Multiple Biomarker Subsets with Similarly Effective Binary Classification Performances Xin Feng1, Shaofei Wang1, Quewang Liu1, Han Li2, Jiamei Liu2, Cheng Xu2, Weifeng Yang2, Yayun Shu2, Weiwei Zheng1, Bingxin Yu3, Mingran Qi4, Wenyang Zhou1, Fengfeng Zhou1 1College of Computer Science and Technology, and Key Laboratory of Symbolic Computation and Knowledge Engineering of Ministry of Education, Jilin University, 2College of Software, Jilin University, 3Ultrasonography Department, China-Japan Union Hospital of Jilin University, 4Department of Pathogenobiology, College of Basic Medical Science, Jilin University Existing algorithms generate one solution for a biomarker detection dataset. This protocol demonstrates the existence of multiple similarly effective solutions and presents a user-friendly software to help biomedical researchers investigate their datasets for the proposed challenge. Computer scientists may also provide this feature in their biomarker detection algorithms.
