DeepDoseNet: A Deep Learning model for 3D Dose Prediction in Radiation Therapy [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2021
The DeepDoseNet 3D dose prediction model based on ResNet and Dilated DenseNet is proposed. The 340 head-and-neck datasets from the 2020 AAPM OpenKBP challenge were utilized, with 200 for training, 40 for validation, and 100 for testing. Structures include 56Gy, 63Gy, 70Gy PTVs, and brainstem, spinal cord, right parotid, left parotid, larynx, esophagus,

Ultra2Speech -- A Deep Learning Framework for Formant Frequency Estimation and Tracking from Ultrasound Tongue Images [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2020
Thousands of individuals need surgical removal of their larynx due to critical diseases every year and therefore, require an alternative form of communication to articulate speech sounds after the loss of their voice box. This work addresses the articulatory-to-acoustic mapping problem based on ultrasound (US) tongue images for the development of a ...

Accurate and Noninvasive Dysphagia Assessment via a Soft High‐Density sEMG Electrode Array Conformal to the Submental and Infrahyoid Muscles

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
A stretchable, breathable, large‐area high‐density sEMG (HD‐sEMG) electrode array is reported, which enables seamless integration to the complex surface of the submental and infrahyoid muscles to detect high‐fidelity HD‐sEMG signals during swallowing.

Glottal Closure Instants Detection From Pathological Acoustic Speech Signal Using Deep Learning [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2018
In this paper, we propose a classification based glottal closure instants (GCI) detection from pathological acoustic speech signal, which finds many applications in vocal disorder analysis. Till date, GCI for pathological disorder is extracted from laryngeal (glottal source) signal recorded from Electroglottograph, a dedicated device designed to ...

Risk factors for pneumonia after endoscopic laryngopharyngeal surgery in cases with prior esophageal cancer treatment

open access: yesAnnals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
This study found that the risk factors for postoperative pneumonia after endoscopic laryngopharyngeal surgery for superficial laryngopharyngeal cancer were multiple lesions and larger lesion diameter. Prior esophagectomy for esophageal cancer did not increase the incidence of pneumonia, suggesting the procedure can be safely performed with careful ...

Perioperative outcomes of esophagectomy after doublet versus docetaxel‐based triplet neoadjuvant chemotherapy in older patients: A nationwide inpatient database study in Japan

open access: yesAnnals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
In this nationwide inpatient database study of 5229 patients aged 70–79 years who underwent esophagectomy for cancer after neoadjuvant chemotherapy, overlap propensity score weighting analysis showed that neoadjuvant docetaxel‐based triplet regimen (docetaxel, cisplatin, and 5‐fluorouracil) was not associated with a higher incidence of perioperative ...
