Treatment With the Shaker Head‐Lift Exercise in Head and Neck Cancer Patients With Radiation‐Induced Dysphagia: 12‐Month Results on Swallowing Function From a Randomized, Controlled Trial

open access: yesHead &Neck, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Dysphagia is a common side‐effect after radiotherapy in head and neck cancer patients. This randomized study aimed to evaluate the effect of the shaker head‐lift exercise (HLE) after 12 months with flexible endoscopic evaluation of swallowing (FEES). Methods Patients were randomly assigned to the intervention (n = 30) or the control

Early Feasibility of Registration of Micro‐PET/CT Scans to Annotated 3D Specimen Models

open access: yesHead &Neck, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Intraoperative 18F‐fluorodeoxyglucose (18F‐FDG) micro‐positron emission tomography/computed tomography (micro‐PET/CT) is an emerging modality for margin assessment. Prior to clinical use, micro‐PET/CT margin distances must be correlated with gold‐standard histopathology.

Preoperative Prediction of Cervical Lymph Node Metastasis in Papillary Thyroid Carcinoma Using Arterial Enhancement Fraction Derived From Dual‐Layer Spectral CT

open access: yesHead &Neck, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective To evaluate the diagnostic value of arterial enhancement fraction (AEF) derived from dual‐layer detector spectral CT (DLCT) in preoperative assessment of cervical lymph node metastasis in patients with papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC), and to compare its performance with other spectral CT quantitative parameters and conventional CT ...

Indocyanine green for intraoperative ureteral identification in gynecologic surgery: A preliminary systematic review of feasibility, safety, and surgical outcomes

open access: yesInternational Journal of Gynecology &Obstetrics, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Intraoperative ureteral injury, although uncommon, can result in significant morbidity and medicolegal consequences, particularly during complex gynecologic procedures such as endometriosis excision and prolapse repair. Conventional ureteral identification techniques, including stents and methylene blue, have recognized limitations.
