Toward Optimized VR/AR Ergonomics: Modeling and Predicting User Neck Muscle Contraction [PDF]
, 2023 Ergonomic efficiency is essential to the mass and prolonged adoption of VR/AR experiences. While VR/AR head-mounted displays unlock users' natural wide-range head movements during viewing, their neck muscle comfort is inevitably compromised by the added hardware weight.

Primary extranodal diffuse large B‐cell lymphoma: Molecular features, treatment, and prognosis
Aging and Cancer, Volume 3, Issue 3-4, Page 133-146, September-December 2022., 2022 One‐third of DLBCL arises from extranodal organs and is challenging to manage. Molecular features are critical to elucidate the differences in clinical features, predict the disease prognosis, and improve effective targeted therapeutic strategies. Abstract Diffuse large B‐cell lymphoma (DLBCL) is the most common subtype of non‐Hodgkin's lymphoma and ...

Squeeze-and-Excitation Normalization for Automated Delineation of Head and Neck Primary Tumors in Combined PET and CT Images [PDF]
In: Andrearczyk V., Oreiller V., Depeursinge A. (eds) Head and
Neck Tumor Segmentation. HECKTOR 2020. Lecture Notes in Computer Science, vol
12603. Springer, Cham, 2021 Development of robust and accurate fully automated methods for medical image segmentation is crucial in clinical practice and radiomics studies. In this work, we contributed an automated approach for Head and Neck (H&N) primary tumor segmentation in combined positron emission tomography / computed tomography (PET/CT) images in the context of the MICCAI

Neuroendocrine tumours of the head and neck: anatomical, functional and molecular imaging and contemporary management [PDF]
, 2013 Neuroendocrine tumours (NETs) of the head and neck are rare neoplasms and can be of epithelial or non-epithelial differentiation. Although the natural history of NETs is variable, it is crucial to establish an early diagnosis of these tumours as they can

Radiomics-enhanced Deep Multi-task Learning for Outcome Prediction in Head and Neck Cancer [PDF]
Head and Neck Tumor Segmentation and Outcome Prediction (HECKTOR
2022), pp.135-143, 2022 Outcome prediction is crucial for head and neck cancer patients as it can provide prognostic information for early treatment planning. Radiomics methods have been widely used for outcome prediction from medical images. However, these methods are limited by their reliance on intractable manual segmentation of tumor regions.

A small footprint couch‐top support device for image‐guided radiotherapy of heavy patients
Journal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, Volume 23, Issue 12, December 2022., 2022 Abstract Purpose Patients with body weights close to or above 400 lbs present unique challenges in radiation therapy since the weight limit of most treatment couches decreases as the couch‐top extends toward the treatment gantry. The purpose of this work was to develop a small footprint couch‐top support platform to safely perform image‐guided ...

Journal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, Volume 23, Issue 12, December 2022., 2022 Abstract Purpose MRI is increasingly used for brain and head and neck radiotherapy treatment planning due to its superior soft tissue contrast. Flexible array coils can be arranged to encompass treatment immobilization devices, which do not fit in diagnostic head/neck coils. Selecting a flexible coil arrangement to replace a diagnostic coil should rely
