Neural Transformers for Intraductal Papillary Mucosal Neoplasms (IPMN) Classification in MRI images [PDF]
Early detection of precancerous cysts or neoplasms, i.e., Intraductal Papillary Mucosal Neoplasms (IPMN), in pancreas is a challenging and complex task, and it may lead to a more favourable outcome. Once detected, grading IPMNs accurately is also necessary, since low-risk IPMNs can be under surveillance program, while high-risk IPMNs have to be ...

Mathematical modelling, selection and hierarchical inference to determine the minimal dose in IFN$α$ therapy against Myeloproliferative Neoplasms [PDF]
Myeloproliferative Neoplasms (MPN) are blood cancers that appear after acquiring a driver mutation in a hematopoietic stem cell. These hematological malignancies result in the overproduction of mature blood cells and, if not treated, induce a risk of cardiovascular events and thrombosis. Pegylated IFN$\alpha$ is commonly used to treat MPN, but no clear

Intraosseous Mucoepidermoid Carcinoma of the Jaw: Report of Three Cases
Mucoepidermoid carcinoma (MEC) is the most common malignant tumor of the salivary glands and is seen most commonly in the parotid gland. Intraosseous MECs can be rarely seen and is mostly detected in the posterior part of the mandible. This condition can

Giant Osteoma of the Mandible: Ultrasonography Guided Surgery [PDF]
Osteomas are rare, benign osteogenic neoplasms arising from the bone surface or medullary bone. They are most commonly encountered on the craniofacial skeleton. Complaints including pain and facial asymmetry are managed by surgical excision.

Conservative Decompression Management with Functional Appliance in Pediatric Plexiform Ameloblastoma
Ameloblastoma is an infiltrative benign neoplasm in the mandible or maxilla that is locally aggressive with rare metastasizing capacity. This lesion is the most common tumor of the odontogenic epithelium.

The management of obstructive sleep apnea accompanied with mandibular retrognathia across the lifespan from orthodontic perspective [PDF]
Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is a complex disease with complex etiology, which requires multidisciplinary cooperation in diagnosis and treatment. Mandibular retrognathia is strongly associated with OSA. Orthodontists can either correct the mandibular retrognathia of pediatric OSA via various kinds of orthodontic appliances, following adenoidectomy and

Dual-Stage Deeply Supervised Attention-based Convolutional Neural Networks for Mandibular Canal Segmentation in CBCT Scans [PDF]
Accurate segmentation of mandibular canals in lower jaws is important in dental implantology. Medical experts determine the implant position and dimensions manually from 3D CT images to avoid damaging the mandibular nerve inside the canal. In this paper, we propose a novel dual-stage deep learning-based scheme for the automatic segmentation of the ...

Loss of any anatomical structure leads to functional insufficiency and psychological trauma. Malignant neoplasms of mandible are often surgically treated by hemimandibulectomy which greatly affects the function postoperatively.

Automatic tracing of mandibular canal pathways using deep learning [PDF]
There is an increasing demand in medical industries to have automated systems for detection and localization which are manually inefficient otherwise. In dentistry, it bears great interest to trace the pathway of mandibular canals accurately. Proper localization of the position of the mandibular canals, which surrounds the inferior alveolar nerve (IAN),
