Interventions for the treatment of oral and oropharyngeal cancers: surgical treatment. [PDF]

, 2011
BACKGROUND: Surgery is an important part of the management of oral cavity cancer with regard to both the removal of the primary tumour and removal of lymph nodes in the neck. Surgery is less frequently used in oropharyngeal cancer.

Long‐Term Survival of Two Versus Three Courses of Preoperative Cisplatin and Fluorouracil Plus Docetaxel for Locally Advanced Esophageal Cancer: A Multicenter Randomized Phase II Trial

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
This multi‐institutional, randomized, phase II trial aimed to investigate the long‐term survival outcomes of two versus three courses of DCF for locally advanced esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC). The 5‐year overall survival and progression‐free survival rates for the three and two course groups were 70.7% vs. 63.8% (hazard ratio (HR) = 0.91, p

CT Synthesis with Conditional Diffusion Models for Abdominal Lymph Node Segmentation [PDF]

arXiv
Despite the significant success achieved by deep learning methods in medical image segmentation, researchers still struggle in the computer-aided diagnosis of abdominal lymph nodes due to the complex abdominal environment, small and indistinguishable lesions, and limited annotated data.

Identifying Metastases in Sentinel Lymph Nodes with Deep Convolutional Neural Networks [PDF]

arXiv, 2016
Metastatic presence in lymph nodes is one of the most important prognostic variables of breast cancer. The current diagnostic procedure for manually reviewing sentinel lymph nodes, however, is very time-consuming and subjective. Pathologists have to manually scan an entire digital whole-slide image (WSI) for regions of metastasis that are sometimes ...

Imaging of Cervical Lymph Nodes

Iranian Journal of Radiology, 2017
: The imaging assessment of nodal disease can be challenging for the radiologist because there are multiple sites to review and differing opinions about criteria for abnormal nodes. The ability to accurately detect nodal metastases is improved with knowledge of the criteria for abnormal nodes, the nodal drainage patterns, and common imaging pitfalls ...

Surgery for Older Cancer Patients: Cross‐Organ Review and Good Practice Statement by the Japanese Geriatric Oncology Guideline Committee

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
We conducted a cross‐organ review of surgical outcomes in older cancer patients based on literature cited in Japanese clinical guidelines. This study summarizes postoperative complication rates and survival outcomes across five major cancer types. The findings aim to support the development of geriatric oncology surgical guidelines tailored to Japan's ...

A Fully-Automated Pipeline for Detection and Segmentation of Liver Lesions and Pathological Lymph Nodes [PDF]

arXiv, 2017
We propose a fully-automated method for accurate and robust detection and segmentation of potentially cancerous lesions found in the liver and in lymph nodes. The process is performed in three steps, including organ detection, lesion detection and lesion segmentation.

Label‐Free Microscale Technologies for Isolation of Heterogeneous Circulating Tumor Cells

Advanced NanoBiomed Research, EarlyView.
The isolation of circulating tumor cells (CTCs) from liquid biopsy samples is crucial for cancer treatment and monitoring. This review evaluates primary label‐free isolation methods for capturing heterogeneous CTCs and examines their potential to provide deeper insights into tumor heterogeneity and dynamics of cancer progression.

Review of the anatomical basis for predicting plutonium alpha particle radiation induced osteogenic cancers

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Plutonium was discovered and first synthesized in the early 1940's. Several isotopes of plutonium are used in nuclear technologies, 238Pu for heat generation and 239Pu for energy production and weapons. Both isotopes emit alpha particles, which pose a significant radiation hazard when incorporated into the body.
