Nested-block self-attention for robust radiotherapy planning segmentation [PDF]
arXiv, 2021 Although deep convolutional networks have been widely studied for head and neck (HN) organs at risk (OAR) segmentation, their use for routine clinical treatment planning is limited by a lack of robustness to imaging artifacts, low soft tissue contrast on CT, and the presence of abnormal anatomy.

Study of morphological subtypes of major Salivary gland tumors [PDF]
Perspectives In Medical Research, 2017 ntroduction: Salivary glands are the site of origin of neoplastic and non neoplastic lesions. Salivary gland tumours account for 2-6% of all the neoplasms of the Head and Neck.

AnatomyNet: Deep Learning for Fast and Fully Automated Whole-volume Segmentation of Head and Neck Anatomy [PDF]
, 2018 Methods: Our deep learning model, called AnatomyNet, segments OARs from head and neck CT images in an end-to-end fashion, receiving whole-volume HaN CT images as input and generating masks of all OARs of interest in one shot. AnatomyNet is built upon the popular 3D U-net architecture, but extends it in three important ways: 1) a new encoding scheme to ...

Indian Journal of Case ReportsSalivary gland tumors represent only 1–4% of head-and-neck tumors, with submandibular gland tumors representing around 10% of salivary gland tumors. Although rarely seen, submandibular pleomorphic adenoma is the most common of the submandibular gland ...

A Rare Variety of Adenoid Cystic Carcinoma involving Submandibular Salivary Gland
Bengal Journal of Otolaryngology and Head Neck Surgery, 2015 Introduction Adenoid cystic carcinoma, an uncommon malignant salivary gland neoplasm, is known for its long clinical course, indolent growth, neural invasion, local recurrence and late distant metastasis.

The proliferation marker Chromatin Assembly Factor-1 is of clinical value in predicting the biological behaviour of salivary gland tumours. [PDF]
, 2011 Salivary gland tumours (SGT) constitute a diagnostically challenging group of neoplasms with frequently unpredictable clinical outcome. The proliferation rate facilitates the identification of aggressive SGT.

Classification of anatomic structures in head and neck by CT-based radiomics [PDF]
arXiv, 2022 Background and Purpose: Radiomics features are used to identify disease types and predict therapy outcomes. However, how the radiomics features are different among different anatomical structures has never been investigated. Hence, we analyzed the radiomics features of 22 anatomical structures in the head and neck area in CT images.

Metastasizing Pleomorphic Adenoma: A Fascinating Enigma
Case Reports in Medicine, 2012 Among salivary gland neoplasms, metastasizing pleomorphic adenoma (MPA) constitutes an extremely rare group of tumors. The present paper reports a case of pleomorphic adenoma (PA) in submandibular gland that, after more than 30 years of initial treatment,
