Enhancing Diagnostic Accuracy in Sinonasal Neuroendocrine Tumors: The Case for DOTATATE PET Over FDG PET

International Forum of Allergy &Rhinology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Neuroendocrine tumors (NET) are a heterogeneous group of neoplasms that arise from neuroendocrine cells and commonly originate in the GI tract, lungs, and pancreas, but can also present in the skull base and paranasal sinuses. While fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography (FDG PET) scans are routinely used in the evaluation of ...

Complications in Endoscopic Sinus Surgery: A TriNetX Network Analysis

International Forum of Allergy &Rhinology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background The potential complications of endoscopic sinus surgery (ESS) remain a critical surgical consideration. This study aims to examine complication rates and identify trends in ESS‐related complications. Methods The TriNetX network was queried for patients undergoing ESS between 2005 and 2024.

Olfactory Function Recovery in Endoscopic Transsphenoidal Pituitary Surgery

International Forum of Allergy &Rhinology, EarlyView.
Key Points Olfactory flap preservation in transsphenoidal surgery (TSA) promotes early olfactory recovery. Objective olfactory function recovers faster than subjective olfaction following TSA. Olfactory‐specific and sinonasal olfactory‐specific quality of life (QOL) smell scores show divergent recovery timelines.

Comparative analysis of short‐term and long‐term LL‐37‐induced rosacea‐like mouse models: Histopathological features and inflammatory immune responses

Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
The aim of this study was to improve the long‐term LL‐37 mouse model and compare the disease manifestations and pathophysiology of short‐term and long‐term LL‐37‐induced rosacea‐like models. The results show that the long‐term LL‐37 induced mouse model provides a practical animal model for further study of the pathological mechanism of severe rosacea ...

The cost of radiology procedures using Activity Based Costing (ABC) for development of cost weights in implementation of casemix system in Malaysia [PDF]

, 2018
Presently there is a gross lack of information on cost and cost weights in many developing countries that implement casemix system. Furthermore, studies that employed Activity Based Costing method (ABC) to estimate the costs of radiology procedures were ...

Segmentation of cortical bone, trabecular bone, and medullary pores from micro‐CT images using 2D and 3D deep learning models

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Computed tomography (CT) enables rapid imaging of large‐scale studies of bone, but those datasets typically require manual segmentation, which is time‐consuming and prone to error. Convolutional neural networks (CNNs) offer an automated solution, achieving superior performance on image data.

Review of the anatomical basis for predicting plutonium alpha particle radiation induced osteogenic cancers

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Plutonium was discovered and first synthesized in the early 1940's. Several isotopes of plutonium are used in nuclear technologies, 238Pu for heat generation and 239Pu for energy production and weapons. Both isotopes emit alpha particles, which pose a significant radiation hazard when incorporated into the body.
