Endocrine Surgery, 2021 Understanding Carcinoid Syndrome It’s common knowledge that cancer tumors can occur in different shapes and sizes. What’s less known is how they can travel at different speeds. Carcinoid tumors have been called "cancers in slow motion".

Improving Segmentation and Detection of Lesions in CT Scans Using Intensity Distribution Supervision [PDF]
, 2023 We propose a method to incorporate the intensity information of a target lesion on CT scans in training segmentation and detection networks. We first build an intensity-based lesion probability (ILP) function from an intensity histogram of the target lesion. It is used to compute the probability of being the lesion for each voxel based on its intensity.

Late-stage diagnosis of carcinoid heart disease due to lack of access to health care
Cardio-Oncology, 2023 Carcinoid syndrome (CS) is a unique constellation of symptoms caused by release of vasoactive substances from neuroendocrine tumors (Pandit et al., StatPearls, 2022).

Decoding of Quantum Data-Syndrome Codes via Belief Propagation [PDF]
in Proc. IEEE International Symposium on Information Theory
(ISIT), 2021, pp. 1552--1557, 2021 Quantum error correction is necessary to protect logical quantum states and operations. However, no meaningful data protection can be made when the syndrome extraction is erroneous due to faulty measurement gates. Quantum data-syndrome (DS) codes are designed to protect the data qubits and syndrome bits concurrently.
