Classification of Nasopharyngeal Cases using DenseNet Deep Learning Architecture [PDF]
arXivNasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) is one of the understudied yet deadliest cancers in South East Asia. In Malaysia, the prevalence is identified mainly in Sarawak, among the ethnic of Bidayuh. NPC is often late-diagnosed because it is asymptomatic at the early stage.

Radiation induced lichen planus - an uncommon side effect [PDF]
, 2019 Cutaneous lichen planus is classically characterized by violaceous, pruritic, planar papules and plaques, most commonly affecting the extremities. Lichen planus following radiation therapy is extremely rare and lichen planus following radiation therapy ...

Random-set methods identify distinct aspects of the enrichment signal in gene-set analysis
, 2007 A prespecified set of genes may be enriched, to varying degrees, for genes that have altered expression levels relative to two or more states of a cell.

MicroRNAs as Therapeutic Targets in Nasopharyngeal Carcinoma
Frontiers in Oncology, 2019 Nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) is a malignancy of epithelial origin that is prone to local invasion and early distant metastasis. Although concurrent chemotherapy and radiotherapy improves the 5-year survival outcomes, persistent or recurrent disease ...

Head &Neck, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Introduction The past two decades have seen a paradigm shift in the surgical treatment of sinonasal malignancies, moving from traditional open approaches to minimally invasive endoscopic techniques. Technological advancements have enabled the use of the endoscopic endonasal transcribriform approach (EETA) for tumors involving the anterior ...

Universality of a mesenchymal transition signature in invasive solid cancers [PDF]
, 2012 In this brief communication, additional computational validation is provided consistent with the unifying hypothesis that a shared biological mechanism of mesenchymal transition, reflected by a precise gene expression signature, may be present in all ...

Head &Neck, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background Evaluating the minimum distance (dTICA) between the internal carotid artery (ICA) and tonsillar tumors (TT) on imaging is essential for preoperative planning; we propose a tool to automatically extract dTICA. Methods CT scans of 96 patients with TT were selected from the cancer imaging archive.

Leveraging Semantic Asymmetry for Precise Gross Tumor Volume Segmentation of Nasopharyngeal Carcinoma in Planning CT [PDF]
arXivIn 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 ...

OncoTargets and Therapy, 2019 Objective: Shikonin has inhibitory effects against nasopharyngeal carcinoma that are mediated through the apoptotic pathway. However, necroptosis signaling pathways may enable the elimination of apoptosis-resistant cancers when induced with targeted ...
