Traditional supervised methods often require large datasets of paired noisy and clean images, which are challenging to acquire in clinical practice. In contrast, self-supervised strategies exploit the inherent redundancy and structure within the data itself, enabling effective noise reduction without the need for explicitly labeled training pairs. This Perspective synthesizes recent advances in self-supervised denoising techniques, outlining their underlying principles, algorithmic innovations, and practical applications across different imaging modalities. In MRI, these methods have been shown to improve contrast and detail resolution, while in CT, they contribute to reducing radiation dose by allowing lower signal acquisitions without compromising image quality. In optical microscopy, self-supervised denoising facilitates extracting high-fidelity cellular information from inherently low-light environments. Furthermore, these techniques have also proven effective in imaging of biomedical materials, such as tissue engineering scaffolds, drug delivery systems, and implants, improving the evaluation of their interactions with biological tissues. Collectively, the integration of these advanced denoising frameworks holds significant promise for improving diagnostic accuracy, streamlining clinical workflows, and ultimately enhancing patient outcomes.</p>","PeriodicalId":100191,"journal":{"name":"BMEMat","volume":"3 3","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":15.5,"publicationDate":"2025-06-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1002/bmm2.70018","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145135810","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, reconstructing these standard planes from CBCT is labor-intensive, time-consuming, and error-prone due to anatomical variances and multi-center discrepancies. This study proposes an expertise-inspired artificial intelligence (AI) pipeline for the reconstruction of the tooth-centric radial plane. By emulating expert's workflow, this AI pipeline acquires the optimized maxillary and mandibular cross sections, segments the teeth for dental arch curve depiction, and reconstructs dental arch-defined tooth-centric radial planes. A total of 420 CBCT scans from two independent centers, comprising both healthy and diseased subjects, were collected for model development and validation. Teeth on the optimized cross sections were explicitly segmented even in the presence of various complex diseases, resulting in precise dental arch curve depictions. The AI-reconstructed tooth-centric radial planes for all teeth exhibited low angular and distance errors compared with the ground truth planes. In terms of clinical utility, the AI-reconstructed planes demonstrated high image quality, accurately represented anatomical and pathological features, and facilitated precise dental biometrics measurement by both clinicians and downstream AI diagnostic tools. The expertise-inspired AI pipeline showcases outstanding performance in reconstructing tooth-centric radial planes and offers significant clinical utility for intelligent oral health management with high interpretability, robustness and generalization capabilities.</p>","PeriodicalId":100191,"journal":{"name":"BMEMat","volume":"3 3","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":15.5,"publicationDate":"2025-04-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1002/bmm2.70010","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145135447","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Conventional lead-based materials suffer from a high bio-toxicity and low transparency, which hinders their application in interventional surgeries. Herein, we report a lead-free nanocomposite of LaF₃ particles and poly(vinyl alcohol). Due to the low refractive-index contrast, the monolayer composite exhibits a high optical transparency of up to 86% in the visible light region with a fluoride-ceramic content of up to ∼70 wt%. Importantly, the transparency of the composite remains at 81% after stacking up 23 monolayers in a layer-by-layer manner. Due to the characteristic K-edge absorption of lanthanide element, the heavy-loading nanocomposite has showcased an effective X-ray attenuation ability (<i>μ</i> = 46.1 cm⁻¹ @ 50 kV) in the clinical range, which is 2.3 times that of the reported Pb-based glass. The shielding performance is further tested in a real clinical scenario, showing a 66% blocking efficacy for an 80-keV X-ray source.

Herein, the graphene derivative matrix of aminated graphene (G-NH₂) was synthesized as a substrate niche to modulate cardiac differentiation of human induced pluripotent stem cells (hiPSCs). The conductivity of G-NH₂ matrix was close to that of native myocardium while the surface roughness of G-NH₂ matrix was much low to present a suitable interface for the adhesion of hiPSCs. The G-NH₂ matrix effectively elevated the maturation of hiPSCs-derived cardiomyocytes based on the evaluation of cardiomyocyte contraction, sarcomere patterns and length, and the content of NCAD (N-cadherin). The molecular mechanism of cardiomyocyte maturation was highly associated with the signaling pathway of PDGF-β. The mature cardiomyocytes derived from G-NH₂ were transplanted into the groin of immunodeficient mice to reveal the better survival and rapid angiogenesis. More importantly, in situ injection into rat hearts of differentiated mature cardiomyocytes exhibited the better performance on residence, survival and proliferation.
