Endobronchial Carcinoid and Concurrent Carcinoid Syndrome in an Adolescent Female
Endobronchial carcinoid tumors are the most common intrabronchial tumors in children and adolescents. Common signs and symptoms include persistent cough and wheezing not responsive to bronchodilators, hemoptysis, and recurrent fever.

Carcinoid tumor of the kidney: An unusual renal tumor
Carcinoid tumors are low-grade malignant tumors that arise from neuroendocrine cells. Primary renal carcinoid is extremely rare. We present a case of 57-year-old male with primary renal carcinoid tumor.

Simultaneous surgical treatment of primary ovarian carcinoid and carcinoid heart disease
The incidence of neuroendocrine tumors (NET) is 2.5–5 per 100 000 population. Up to 20% of patients with NET develop carcinoid syndrome (CS), and in 40–50% of those carcinoid heart disease (CHD) is reported (0.27 per 100 000 population per year) [1 ...

Brain Tumors Classification for MR images based on Attention Guided Deep Learning Model [PDF]
In the clinical diagnosis and treatment of brain tumors, manual image reading consumes a lot of energy and time. In recent years, the automatic tumor classification technology based on deep learning has entered people's field of vision. Brain tumors can be divided into primary and secondary intracranial tumors according to their source. However, to our

Synthetic Tumors Make AI Segment Tumors Better [PDF]
We develop a novel strategy to generate synthetic tumors. Unlike existing works, the tumors generated by our strategy have two intriguing advantages: (1) realistic in shape and texture, which even medical professionals can confuse with real tumors; (2) effective for AI model training, which can perform liver tumor segmentation similarly to a model ...

Label-Free Liver Tumor Segmentation [PDF]
We demonstrate that AI models can accurately segment liver tumors without the need for manual annotation by using synthetic tumors in CT scans. Our synthetic tumors have two intriguing advantages: (I) realistic in shape and texture, which even medical professionals can confuse with real tumors; (II) effective for training AI models, which can perform ...
