This manuscript explores the performance of five different machine learning models in classifying brain tumors from a dataset of MRI scans. The authors find that several of the models showed >90% accuracy. Thus, the authors suggest that machine learning models demonstrate potential for effective implementation in clinical settings, including as a diagnostic tool that can be used to complement the expertise of neuroradiologists.

To address the limitations in predicting the severity of Atrial Septal Defect (ASD), here the authors utilized a fluid-filled chamber model to quantify the relationship between defect size and right atrial fluid output. The findings confirmed that larger ASD diameters result in a linear increase in fluid output, validating a cost-effective model that can improve clinical prognosis and treatment planning for heart failure risks.
