Three-Port Transoral Robotic Thyroidectomy in Papillary Thyroid Carcinoma.

BACKGROUND: Although transoral thyroidectomy has become popular in thyroid surgery, transoral robotic thyroidectomy (TORT) has only been successfully applied in a very small number of medical centers worldwide. In this video, we show a three-port TORT without an axillary incision for papillary thyroid carcinoma.

SPIN-AI: A Deep Learning Model That Identifies Spatially Predictive Genes.

Spatially resolved sequencing technologies help us dissect how cells are organized in space. Several available computational approaches focus on the identification of spatially variable genes (SVGs), genes whose expression patterns vary in space. The detection of SVGs is analogous to the identification of differentially expressed genes and permits us to understand how genes and associated molecula...

Prediction of MYCN Gene Amplification in Pediatric Neuroblastomas: Development of a Deep Learning-Based Tool for Automatic Tumor Segmentation and Comparative Analysis of Computed Tomography-Based Radiomics Features Harmonization.

OBJECTIVE: MYCN oncogene amplification is closely linked to high-grade neuroblastoma with poor prognosis. Accurate quantification is essential for ris...

Non-invasive grading of brain tumors using online support vector machine with dynamic fuzzy rule-based parameters optimization.

Non-invasive grading of brain tumors provides a valuable understanding of tumor growth that helps choose the proper treatment. In this paper, an onlin...

Domain-specific transfer learning in the automated scoring of tumor-stroma ratio from histopathological images of colorectal cancer.

Tumor-stroma ratio (TSR) is a prognostic factor for many types of solid tumors. In this study, we propose a method for automated estimation of TSR fro...

Multiscale deep learning framework captures systemic immune features in lymph nodes predictive of triple negative breast cancer outcome in large-scale studies.

The suggestion that the systemic immune response in lymph nodes (LNs) conveys prognostic value for triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) patients has n...

Biologically Interpretable Deep Learning To Predict Response to Immunotherapy In Advanced Melanoma Using Mutations and Copy Number Variations.
