INTRODUCTION: Hemolytic uremic syndrome (HUS) in Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV)-positive patients has become a rare cause of kidney injury since the era of highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART). Plasma exchange and antiretroviral therapy w...
BACKGROUND: Tumor volume in head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) was mainly measured in nonsurgically treated patients. We analyzed the influence of tumor volume on complete response (CR), overall survival (OS), and clear surgical margins al...
Accurate cell grading of cancerous tissue pathological image is of great importance in medical diagnosis and treatment. This paper proposes a joint multiple fully connected convolutional neural network with extreme learning machine (MFC-CNN-ELM) arch...
Lung cancer is the most common cause of cancer-related death, and early detection can reduce the mortality rate. Patients with lung nodules greater than 10 mm usually undergo a computed tomography (CT)-guided biopsy. However, aligning the needle with...
INTRODUCTION: To compare the pre- and post-operative Gleason scores (GS) in patients with localized prostate cancer treated with robot-assisted laparoscopic radical prostatectomy.
IMPORTANCE: Population-based information on the distribution of histologic diagnoses associated with skin biopsies is unknown. Electronic medical records (EMRs) enable automated extraction of pathology report data to improve our epidemiologic underst...

To evaluate the accuracy and feasibility of a custom robot system guided by navigation for lateral skull base tumor biopsy. Two cadaver heads were used, with iopamidol injected into different areas in the skull base and infratemporal region to imit...
While the interaction between a needle and the surrounding tissue is known to cause a significant targeting error in prostate biopsy leading to false-negative results, few studies have demonstrated how it impacts in the actual procedure. We performed...
The level of PD-L1 expression in immunohistochemistry (IHC) assays is a key biomarker for the identification of Non-Small-Cell-Lung-Cancer (NSCLC) patients that may respond to anti PD-1/PD-L1 treatments. The quantification of PD-L1 expression current...
OBJECTIVES: To retrospectively evaluate the diagnostic performance of a convolutional neural network (CNN) model in detecting pneumothorax on chest radiographs obtained after percutaneous transthoracic needle biopsy (PTNB) for pulmonary lesions.
