On tumor development: fractional transport approach [PDF]
arXiv, 2004 A growth of malignant neoplasm is considered as a fractional transport approach. We suggested that the main process of the tumor development through a lymphatic net is fractional transport of cells. In the framework of this fractional kinetics we were able to show that the mean size of main growth is due to subdiffusion, while the appearance of ...

Automated Treatment Planning in Radiation Therapy using Generative Adversarial Networks [PDF]
arXiv, 2018 Knowledge-based planning (KBP) is an automated approach to radiation therapy treatment planning that involves predicting desirable treatment plans before they are then corrected to deliverable ones. We propose a generative adversarial network (GAN) approach for predicting desirable 3D dose distributions that eschews the previous paradigms of site ...

Head &Neck, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Objectives To determine if the assessment of CD8+ tumor‐infiltrating lymphocytes (TILs) adds prognostic information to the PD‐L1 combined positive score (CPS) in recurrent/metastatic (R/M) head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC). Methods A retrospective case series was performed of 77 patients with R/M HNSCC between 2003 and 2019.
