Quantifying allowable motion to achieve safe dose escalation in pancreatic SBRT [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Tumor motion plays a key role in the safe delivery of Stereotactic Body Radiotherapy (SBRT) for pancreatic cancer. The purpose of this study was to use tumor motion data measured in patients to establish limits on motion magnitude for safe delivery of pancreatic SBRT.

CTG-Net: An Efficient Cascaded Framework Driven by Terminal Guidance Mechanism for Dilated Pancreatic Duct Segmentation [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2023
Pancreatic duct dilation indicates a high risk of various pancreatic diseases. Segmentation of dilated pancreatic ducts on computed tomography (CT) images shows the potential to assist the early diagnosis, surgical planning and prognosis. Because of the ducts' tiny sizes, slender tubular structures and the surrounding distractions, most current ...

Fluorescent humanized anti-CEA antibody specifically labels metastatic pancreatic cancer in a patient-derived orthotopic xenograft (PDOX) mouse model. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Pancreatic cancer is a highly lethal disease in part due to incomplete tumor resection. Targeting by tumor-specific antibodies conjugated with a fluorescent label can result in selective labeling of cancer in vivo for surgical navigation.

Intrapancreatic accessory spleen false positive to 68Ga-Dotatoc: case report and literature review [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Background: Intrapancreatic accessory spleen (IPAS) is an uncommon finding of pancreatic mass. Differential diagnosis with pancreatic tumor, especially with non-functional neuroendocrine tumor (NF-NET), may be very hard and sometimes it entails ...

Unlocking the potential of tumor‐derived DNA in urine for cancer detection: methodological challenges and opportunities

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Urine is a rich source of biomarkers for cancer detection. Tumor‐derived material is released into the bloodstream and transported to the urine. Urine can easily be collected from individuals, allowing non‐invasive cancer detection. This review discusses the rationale behind urine‐based cancer detection and its potential for cancer diagnostics ...

Splenectomy is associated with an aggressive tumor growth pattern and altered host immunity in an orthotopic syngeneic murine pancreatic cancer model. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
The purpose of this study was to investigate whether splenectomy influences the tumor growth and metastatic pattern in an orthotopic syngeneic murine pancreatic cancer model.

A Pancreatic Polypeptide-Producing Pancreatic Tumor Causing WDHA Syndrome [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
We report the case of a 46-year-old female patient with WDHA (watery diarrhea/hypokalemia/achlorhydria) syndrome caused by a pancreatic polypeptide-producing tumor in the head of the pancreas.

Identification of functional and diverse circulating cancer‐associated fibroblasts in metastatic castration‐naïve prostate cancer patients

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Cancer‐associated fibroblasts (CAFs) promote cancer growth, invasion (metastasis), and drug resistance. Here, we identified functional and diverse circulating CAFs (cCAFs) in patients with metastatic prostate cancer (mPCa). cCAFs were found in higher numbers and were functional and diverse in mPCa patients versus healthy individuals, suggesting their ...

In Vivo Assessment of Hypoxia Levels in Pancreatic Tumors Using a Dual-Modality Ultrasound/Photoacoustic Imaging System

open access: yesMicromachines, 2021
Noninvasive anatomical and functional imaging has become an essential tool to evaluate tissue oxygen saturation dynamics in preclinical or clinical studies of hypoxia. Our dual-wavelength technique for photoacoustic (PA) imaging based on the differential
