Predictors of residual disease after debulking surgery in advanced stage ovarian cancer
ObjectiveOptimal debulking with no macroscopic residual disease strongly predicts ovarian cancer survival. The ability to predict likelihood of optimal debulking, which may be partially dependent on tumor biology, could inform clinical decision-making ...

Will it Crease or Cease? A study of Debulking of Air Pockets in Automated Prepreg Composite Layup [PDF]
Automatic draping of carbon-fiber prepreg plies for the aerospace industry is a promising technique for lowering the manufacturing costs and to this end, a thorough in-process quality control is crucial. In this paper, out-of-plane defects in the layup are investigated. After draping, air pockets are occasionally encountered.

Developing a Novel Image Marker to Predict the Clinical Outcome of Neoadjuvant Chemotherapy (NACT) for Ovarian Cancer Patients [PDF]
Objective Neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NACT) is one kind of treatment for advanced stage ovarian cancer patients. However, due to the nature of tumor heterogeneity, the clinical outcomes to NACT vary significantly among different subgroups. Partial responses to NACT may lead to suboptimal debulking surgery, which will result in adverse prognosis.
