Multi-view Contrastive Learning with Additive Margin for Adaptive Nasopharyngeal Carcinoma Radiotherapy Prediction [PDF]
The prediction of adaptive radiation therapy (ART) prior to radiation therapy (RT) for nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) patients is important to reduce toxicity and prolong the survival of patients. Currently, due to the complex tumor micro-environment, a single type of high-resolution image can provide only limited information.

MiRNAs in Radiotherapy Resistance of Nasopharyngeal Carcinoma
Nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) is one of the most common malignant tumors of the head and neck in Southeast Asia and southern China. Although the comprehensive treatment based on intensity-modulated radiation therapy improves outcomes, the five-year ...

Weighted Concordance Index Loss-based Multimodal Survival Modeling for Radiation Encephalopathy Assessment in Nasopharyngeal Carcinoma Radiotherapy [PDF]
Radiation encephalopathy (REP) is the most common complication for nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) radiotherapy. It is highly desirable to assist clinicians in optimizing the NPC radiotherapy regimen to reduce radiotherapy-induced temporal lobe injury (RTLI) according to the probability of REP onset.

Programmed death ligand 1 expression levels, clinicopathologic features, and survival in surgically resected sarcomatoid lung carcinoma [PDF]
Aim: To determine the programmed death ligand-1 (PD-L1) expression rates in sarcomatoid lung carcinomas and to compare clinicopathologic features and survival rates of PD-L1-positive and negative patients. Methods: PD-L1 expression was evaluated in 65 surgically resected sarcomatoid carcinomas.
