Out of hours workload management: Bayesian inference for decision support in secondary care (2016)
Journal Article
Pérez López, I., Brown, M., Pinchin, J., Martindale, S., Sharples, S., Shaw, D. E., & Blakey, J. (in press). Out of hours workload management: Bayesian inference for decision support in secondary care. Artificial Intelligence in Medicine, 73, 34-44. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.artmed.2016.09.005

Objective: In this paper, we aim to evaluate the use of electronic technologies in Out of Hours (OoH) task-management for assisting the design of effective support systems in health care; targeting local facilities, wards or specific working groups....

Assessment of a rapid liquid-based cytology method for measuring sputum cell counts (2016)
Journal Article
Martin, M., Lee, H., Meakin, G., Green, A., Simms, R., Reynolds, C., …Harrison, T. W. (in press). Assessment of a rapid liquid-based cytology method for measuring sputum cell counts. Thorax, https://doi.org/10.1136/thoraxjnl-2016-208817

Differential sputum cell counting is not widely available despite proven clinical utility in the management of asthma. We compared eosinophil counts obtained using liquid-based cytology (LBC), a routine histopathological processing method, and the cu...

Journal Article
Lilburn, D. M., Tatler, A. L., Six, J. S., Lesbats, C., Habgood, A., Porte, J., …Meersmann, T. (2015). Investigating lung responses with functional hyperpolarized xenon-129 MRI in an ex vivo rat model of asthma. Magnetic Resonance in Medicine, 76(4), 1224-1235. https://doi.org/10.1002/mrm.26003

© 2015 The Authors. Wiley Periodicals, Inc. Purpose: Asthma is a disease of increasing worldwide importance that calls for new investigative methods. Ex vivo lung tissue is being increasingly used to study functional respiratory parameters independen...
