Medical Physics, EarlyView.Abstract Background In recent advancements in proton therapy, magnetic resonance (MR)‐based treatment planning is gaining momentum due to its excellent soft tissue contrast and high potential to minimize extra radiation exposure compared to traditional computed tomography (CT)‐based methods. This transition underscores the critical need for accurate MR‐

Methods of causal effect estimation for high‐dimensional treatments: A radiotherapy simulation study
Medical Physics, EarlyView.Abstract Background Radiotherapy, the use of high‐energy radiation to treat cancer, presents a challenge in determining treatment outcome relationships due to its complex nature. These challenges include its continuous, spatial, high‐dimensional, multi‐collinear treatment, and personalized nature, which introduces confounding bias.

Local block-wise self attention for normal organ segmentation [PDF]
arXiv, 2019 We developed a new and computationally simple local block-wise self attention based normal structures segmentation approach applied to head and neck computed tomography (CT) images. Our method uses the insight that normal organs exhibit regularity in their spatial location and inter-relation within images, which can be leveraged to simplify the ...

Can Manual Therapy Alter Muscle Stiffness in Patients With Spinal Accessory Nerve Injury?
Otolaryngology–Head and Neck Surgery, EarlyView.Abstract Objective Shoulder and neck dysfunctions resulting from spinal accessory nerve injury impair quality of life. This study aims to investigate the effects of manual therapy in combination with standard physiotherapy on the mechanical properties of muscle, neck and shoulder function, pain, and quality of life in head and neck cancer patients ...

Traumatic Sialocele of Parotid Duct: Report of a Case with Review of Literature
Journal of Indian Academy of Oral Medicine and Radiology, 2010 Parotid gland or duct injury can be caused by assault with a knife, bottle, or more rarely gunshot. Post-traumatic parotid gland and duct injuries are not common. The low rate of occurence of parotid injury may account for the missed diagnosis of parotid

Congenital sialoblastoma of the accessory parotid gland
South African Journal of Radiology, 2012 Sialoblastomas are rare, locally aggressive, perinatal or congenital salivary gland tumours that mostly originate in the parotid gland. Significant variability in histological range and clinical course exists.

Joint Cell Nuclei Detection and Segmentation in Microscopy Images Using 3D Convolutional Networks [PDF]
arXiv, 2018 We propose a 3D convolutional neural network to simultaneously segment and detect cell nuclei in confocal microscopy images. Mirroring the co-dependency of these tasks, our proposed model consists of two serial components: the first part computes a segmentation of cell bodies, while the second module identifies the centers of these cells.
