Multidimensional CNN-Based Deep Segmentation Method for Tumor Identification.

Weighted MR images of 421 patients with nasopharyngeal cancer were obtained at the head and neck level, and the tumors in the images were assessed by two expert doctors. 346 patients' multimodal pictures and labels served as training sets, whereas the remaining 75 patients' multimodal images and labels served as independent test sets. Convolutional neural network (CNN) for modal multidimensional information fusion and multimodal multidimensional information fusion (MMMDF) was used. The three models' performance is compared, and the findings reveal that the multimodal multidimensional fusion model performs best, while the two-modal multidimensional information fusion model performs second. The single-modal multidimensional information fusion model has the poorest performance. In MR images of nasopharyngeal cancer, a convolutional network can precisely and efficiently segment tumors.

Efficacy of Various Types of Berries Extract for the Synthesis of ZnO Nanocomposites and Exploring Their Antimicrobial Potential for Use in Herbal Medicines.

Nanoscience has developed various greener approaches as an alternate method for the synthesis of nanoparticles and nanocomposites. The present study discusses the efficacy of berries extract for the synthesis of ZnO nanocomposites. Characterization of synthesized nanocomposite were done by SEM, UV/VIS spectrophotometry, Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, and XRD techniques. The crystalline nature of the synthesized nanoparticles was verified by XRD pattern in the range of 10-80 nm. The UV absorption peak of Elaeagnus umbellata (ZnO-EU) nanocomposite at 340 nm, Rubus idaeus (ZnO-Ri) nanocomposite at 360 nm, and Rubus fruticosus (ZnO-Rf) nanocomposite at 360 nm was observed. The nanocomposites were analyzed for their antimicrobial activity and found to be effective against three phytopathogens. The antimicrobial activity of ZnO nanocomposites showed good results against Escherichia coli (341), Staphylococcus aureus (345B), and Pseudomonas aeruginosa (5994 NLF). This study presents a simple and inexpensive approach for synthesizing zinc oxide nanocomposites with effective antibacterial activity.
