Narrow Band Imaging and Autofluorescence Imaging for the Detection and Optical Diagnosis of Colorectal Polyps

Proceedings of Singapore Healthcare, 2010
Colorectal cancer is the most common cancer in Singapore and polyps which are detected during screening colonoscopy are routinely removed. Conventional white light colonoscopy has a substantial miss-rate for polyps and limited accuracy in differentiating

Indicators to identify cancer screening providers with suboptimal case detection: A scoping review

International Journal of Cancer, EarlyView.
What's New? Quality control of cancer screening programs is essential to maintaining high public health standards. Here, the authors reviewed monitoring of case detection in cervical and colorectal cancer screening programs in Europe, and evaluated its effectiveness. They analysed 20 different measures used for this purpose and showed that many of them

UNet++: A Nested U-Net Architecture for Medical Image Segmentation

, 2018
In this paper, we present UNet++, a new, more powerful architecture for medical image segmentation. Our architecture is essentially a deeply-supervised encoder-decoder network where the encoder and decoder sub-networks are connected through a series of ...

Organ‐sparing strategies in patients with MSI/dMMR tumors including Lynch syndrome: Current state of the art and future perspectives for clinical decision‐making

International Journal of Cancer, EarlyView.
Abstract Deficiency in DNA mismatch repair (dMMR) is a common pathway of carcinogenesis across different tumor types and confers a characteristic microsatellite instability‐high (MSI‐H) molecular phenotype. The MSI‐H/dMMR phenotype may arise from an inherited pathogenic variant in the context of Lynch syndrome and is most frequently observed in ...

Cap-assisted endoscopy: Do we have enough evidence?

Endoscopy International Open, 2018
So, is there enough evidence to incorporate CC in clinical practice? If we interpret the literature and the meta-analysis by Nutalapati et al., the answer for the clinically-focused endoscopist, with regard to adenoma detection rate (ADR), at present ...

A multilevel perspective on MSH6‐associated Lynch syndrome: Integrating molecular, biological, and clinical insights

International Journal of Cancer, EarlyView.
Abstract Lynch syndrome (LS) is the most common hereditary colorectal cancer syndrome, caused by a germline pathogenic variant in one of the mismatch repair (MMR) genes. Among these, MSH6‐associated LS represents a distinct subtype with unique molecular and clinical characteristics.

Transvaginal hemiperitoneal cervical cerclage for cervical insufficiency: A single‐center retrospective study

International Journal of Gynecology &Obstetrics, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Cervical insufficiency (CI) is thought to be responsible for 8% of miscarriages and preterm births. Cervical cerclage is the main treatment for CI. There are different approaches to cervical cerclage, and it is particularly important to find a method of cervical cerclage that is simple to perform and results in better pregnancy ...

Detection of Serrated Adenoma in NBI Based on Multi-Scale Sub-Pixel Convolution

International Journal of Computational Intelligence Systems
Colorectal cancer ranks third in global malignancy incidence, and serrated adenoma is a precursor to colon cancer. However, current studies primarily focus on polyp detection, neglecting the crucial discrimination of polyp nature, hindering effective ...

A novel technique for reducing false positive detections in CAD-CTC [PDF]

, 2006
Computed tomography colonoscopy (CTC) is an emerging alternative to conventional colonoscopy for colorectal cancer screening. A series of computer assisted diagnosis (CAD) techniques have been developed for use in CTC.

Preliminary Study on the Value of Contrast‐Enhanced Ultrasound in Enhancing Early Vascular Architecture for the Differential Diagnosis of Benign and Malignant Endometrial Lesions

Journal of Clinical Ultrasound, EarlyView.
This study aimed to analyze the microvascular morphology and distribution (i.e., early vascular architecture) of endometrial carcinoma lesions during the early enhancement phase using contrast‐enhanced ultrasound (CEUS). The results confirmed that quantitative parameters based on the early vascular architecture possess certain diagnostic efficacy for ...
