LNQ Challenge 2023: Learning Mediastinal Lymph Node Segmentation with a Probabilistic Lymph Node Atlas [PDF]
The evaluation of lymph node metastases plays a crucial role in achieving precise cancer staging, influencing subsequent decisions regarding treatment options. Lymph node detection poses challenges due to the presence of unclear boundaries and the diverse range of sizes and morphological characteristics, making it a resource-intensive process.

Convolutional neural network with a hybrid loss function for fully automated segmentation of lymphoma lesions in FDG PET images [PDF]
Segmentation of lymphoma lesions is challenging due to their varied sizes and locations in whole-body PET scans. This work presents a fully-automated segmentation technique using a multi-center dataset of diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) with heterogeneous characteristics.

Mediastinal hemangioma: Masquerading as pleural effusion
We present a rare case of mediastinal hemangioma in a 4-year-old child. The child presented with cough and fever and the chest radiograph revealed right pleural effusion. On further work-up with chest computed tomography mediastinal cystic mass occupying

Airway obstruction after biopsy by cervical mediastinoscopy in a patient with a mediastinal mass -A case report- [PDF]
Biopsy, using mediastinoscopy is commonly employed for accurate histologic diagnosis of a mediastinal mass. However, since the mass is not removed during the procedure, it may cause compression of vital structures such as major airways, the heart, the ...

Semi-supervised learning towards automated segmentation of PET images with limited annotations: Application to lymphoma patients [PDF]
The time-consuming task of manual segmentation challenges routine systematic quantification of disease burden. Convolutional neural networks (CNNs) hold significant promise to reliably identify locations and boundaries of tumors from PET scans. We aimed to leverage the need for annotated data via semi-supervised approaches, with application to PET ...

ABSTRACT Objective In advanced non‐small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), immune‐checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) can achieve significant clinical responses. This raises the question of whether to consider salvage surgery as a curative treatment option. Few case series reported encouraging results in terms of pathological response.

Mediastinal Masses: Review of 105 Cases [PDF]
There has been a highly significant increase in the number of patients with malignant mediastinal tumors in the last four decades. Since these lesions are infrequently encountered and there are very few reports in Iran concerning this issue, we performed

Huge mediastinal ancient schwannoma causing acute respiratory failure: a case report
Benign mediastinal tumor is usually asymptomatic and exhibits uncomplicated clinical course. Posterior mediastinal schwannoma is common, but a huge benign tumor causing acute respiratory failure due to mass effect is unusual.
