Leveraging Semantic Asymmetry for Precise Gross Tumor Volume Segmentation of Nasopharyngeal Carcinoma in Planning CT [PDF]
In the radiation therapy of nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC), clinicians typically delineate the gross tumor volume (GTV) using non-contrast planning computed tomography to ensure accurate radiation dose delivery. However, the low contrast between tumors and adjacent normal tissues necessitates that radiation oncologists manually delineate the tumors ...

ABSTRACT Background Oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) can present as cancer of unknown primary, where only cervical lymph node metastases are identified. Most tumors, particularly human‐papillomavirus‐associated ones, are located in the palatine/lingual tonsils.

ABSTRACT Background This study aimed at identifying acoustic features of airway protective maneuvers as biomarkers of radiation‐associated dysphagia, involving penetration/aspiration and pharyngeal residue. Methods Temporal and spectral acoustical analyses were carried out on voluntary coughs, voluntary throat clearings, and reflexive coughs.

A dataset of primary nasopharyngeal carcinoma MRI with multi-modalities segmentation [PDF]
Multi-modality magnetic resonance imaging data with various sequences facilitate the early diagnosis, tumor segmentation, and disease staging in the management of nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC). The lack of publicly available, comprehensive datasets limits advancements in diagnosis, treatment planning, and the development of machine learning algorithms

ABSTRACT Background Determining whether to treat the elective cervical lymph node (LN) area remains a dilemma in maxillary sinus squamous cell carcinoma (SCC). This study analyzed the patterns of initial LN involvement and recurrence to guide treatment strategies. Methods We retrospectively reviewed 119 patients with maxillary sinus SCC treated between

Single‐cell landscape and clinical outcomes of infiltrating B cells in colorectal cancer
Our study provides deep insights into infiltrating B cells, including their phenotypes, location, antibody isotypes and interplay within the TME. Moreover, it was found that a B cell‐rich group, which was characterized by microsatellite instability‐high (MSI‐H) and high tumour mutation burden (TMB‐H), as well as immunosuppressive property in particular,
