Dual-Reference Source-Free Active Domain Adaptation for Nasopharyngeal Carcinoma Tumor Segmentation across Multiple Hospitals [PDF]

arXiv, 2023
Nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) is a prevalent and clinically significant malignancy that predominantly impacts the head and neck area. Precise delineation of the Gross Tumor Volume (GTV) plays a pivotal role in ensuring effective radiotherapy for NPC.

Long non‐coding RNAs as therapeutic targets in head and neck squamous cell carcinoma and clinical application

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Long non‐coding RNAs (lncRNAs) occupy an abundant fraction of the eukaryotic transcriptome and an emerging area in cancer research. Regulation by lncRNAs is based on their subcellular localization in HNSCC. This cartoon shows the various functions of lncRNAs in HNSCC discussed in this review.

Multi-Omics Fusion with Soft Labeling for Enhanced Prediction of Distant Metastasis in Nasopharyngeal Carcinoma Patients after Radiotherapy [PDF]

Computers in Biology and Medicine, 168, 107684 (2024)
Omics fusion has emerged as a crucial preprocessing approach in the field of medical image processing, providing significant assistance to several studies. One of the challenges encountered in the integration of omics data is the presence of unpredictability arising from disparities in data sources and medical imaging equipment.

Genome sequencing analysis identifies Epstein-Barr virus subtypes associated with high risk of nasopharyngeal carcinoma

Nature Genetics, 2019
Epstein–Barr virus (EBV) infection is ubiquitous worldwide and is associated with multiple cancers, including nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC). The importance of EBV viral genomic variation in NPC development and its striking epidemic in southern China has

Advantages and limitations of navigation‐based multicriteria optimization (MCO) in selectively sparing pharyngeal constrictor muscles in head and neck radiotherapy treatment planning

Journal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose Sparing pharyngeal constrictor muscles (PCMs) during radiotherapy improves patient‐reported swallowing function. This study aimed to explore the feasibility of integrating knowledge‐based planning (KBP) with multicriteria optimization (MCO) in Eclipse v18.0 to selectively spare PCM, quantify the required trade‐off in prophylactic ...
