Head and neck cancer is a common disease and is associated with a poor prognosis. A promising approach to improving patient outcomes is personalized treatment, which uses information from a variety of modalities. However, only little progress has bee...
Clinical drivers for real-time head and neck (H&N) tumor tracking during radiation therapy (RT) are accounting for motion caused by changes to the immobilization mask fit, and to reduce mask-related patient distress by replacing the masks with patien...
OBJECTIVES: Radiation-induced xerostomia is a common sequela in patients who undergo head and neck radiation therapy. This study aims to develop a three-dimensional deep learning model to predict xerostomia by fusing data from the gross tumor volume ...
OBJECTIVE: Head and neck cancers (HNCs) are a significant global health concern, contributing to substantial morbidity and mortality. AI-powered chatbots such as ChatGPT, Google Gemini, Microsoft Copilot, and Open Evidence are increasingly used by pa...
BACKGROUND: Head and neck cancer (HNC) presents significant research challenges due to the complexity of its tumor microenvironment (TME) and the heterogeneity across different cancer subtypes. Recent advancements in three-dimensional (3D) culture mo...
Reconstructive flap surgery aims to restore the substance and function losses associated with tumor resection. Automatic flap segmentation could allow quantification of flap volume and correlations with functional outcomes after surgery or post-opera...
BACKGROUND: Time/resource constraints might preclude a randomized controlled trial. Single-arm oncology trials with historical controls are an alternative. With causal inference, treatment effect estimates can be computed in the absence of randomizat...

Head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) remains a globally prevalent malignancy with high morbidity and mortality. Despite therapeutic advances, patient outcomes are hindered by tumor heterogeneity, treatment-related toxicity, and the limitatio...
Head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) is a highly aggressive malignancy with complex molecular underpinnings. Hodgkin lymphoma (HL), another distinct cancer type, shares several biological characteristics with HNSCC, particularly regarding im...
