Head and Neck Cancer [PDF]

Acta Oncologica, 1996
This synthesis of the literature on radiotherapy for head and neck cancer is based on 424 scientific articles, including 3 meta-analyses, 38 randomized studies, 45 prospective studies, and 246 retrospective studies. These studies involve 79174 patients. The literature review shows that radiotherapy, either alone or in combination with surgery, plays an

Recruitment, response rates and characteristics of 5511 people enrolled in a prospective clinical cohort study:head and neck 5000 [PDF]

, 2015
Head and neck cancer is an important cause of ill health with rapidly changing aetiology. Survival appears to have improved but the reasons for this are unclear.

Radiomics strategies for risk assessment of tumour failure in head-and-neck cancer [PDF]

Scientific Reports, 2017
Quantitative extraction of high-dimensional mineable data from medical images is a process known as radiomics. Radiomics is foreseen as an essential prognostic tool for cancer risk assessment and the quantification of intratumoural heterogeneity. In this

Investigation of radiomic signatures for local recurrence using primary tumor texture analysis in oropharyngeal head and neck cancer patients

Scientific Reports, 2018
Radiomics is one such “big data” approach that applies advanced image refining/data characterization algorithms to generate imaging features that can quantitatively classify tumor phenotypes in a non-invasive manner.

Head and neck cancer

The Lancet, 2008
Most head and neck cancers are squamous cell carcinomas that develop in the upper aerodigestive epithelium after exposure to carcinogens such as tobacco and alcohol. Human papillomavirus has also been strongly implicated as a causative agent in a subset of these cancers. The complex anatomy and vital physiological role of the tumour-involved structures

Head and Neck Cancers [PDF]

Journal of the National Comprehensive Cancer Network, 2011
Overview This shortened version of the NCCN Clinical Practice Guidelines in Oncology (NCCN Guidelines) for Head and Neck (H&N) Cancers addresses tumors arising in the oral cavity, oropharynx, hypopharynx, and nasopharynx (see Figure 1).1 Other types of H&N cancer (e.g., lip, larynx, paranasal sinus, salivary gland, mucosal melanoma, and occult primary ...

Regional outcome disparities in German head and neck cancer patients: Shorter survival in Eastern Germany

Cancer Medicine, 2023
Introduction Demographics are important prognostic factors in malignant diseases. A nationwide analysis concerning the prognostic impact of demographics in head and neck cancer (HNC) patients (HNCP) has not been performed previously.

Head and neck cancer in the elderly: a retrospective study over 10 years (1999 - 2008) [PDF]

, 2010
INTRODUCTION: Treatment of elderly patients is in many ways different from that for younger ones. The aim of the present study was to identify the particular characteristics and needs of elderly patients suffering from head and neck cancer.

Loss of PIM1 correlates with progression and prognosis of salivary adenoid cystic carcinoma (SACC)

Cancer Cell International, 2018
Background Increasing evidence indicates that PIM1 is a potential prognostic marker and target for cancer treatment but its precise mechanisms of action remain to be determined in salivary adenoid cystic carcinoma (SACC).
