This study aimed to predict positive surgical margins in breast-conserving surgery (BCS) using multiparametric MRI (mpMRI) and radiomics. A retrospective analysis was conducted on data from 444 BCS patients from three Chinese hospitals between 2019 a...
Raman spectroscopy is a promising non-invasive technique not only for the rapid and accurate detection of colorectal cancer (CRC) but also for the identification of positive surgical margins. In this study, micro-Raman spectroscopy was used to explor...

BACKGROUND: Head and neck cancers, constituting 3-5% of all cancer cases, often require surgical resection for optimal outcomes. Achieving complete resection (R0) is crucial, but current methods, relying on white light endoscopy and microscopy, have ...
Direct sampling mass spectrometry (MS) has rapidly advanced with the development of ambient ionization MS techniques. Swab touch-spray (TS)-MS has shown promise for rapid clinical diagnostics. However, commercially available swabs are notorious for t...
PURPOSE: Balancing surgical margins and functional outcomes is crucial during radical prostatectomy for prostate cancer. Stimulated Raman histology (SRH) is a novel, real-time imaging technique that provides histologic images of fresh, unprocessed, a...
PURPOSE: Specimen Mammography (SM) is commonly used in Breast Conserving Surgery (BCS) for intraoperative margin analysis. A systematic scoping review was conducted to identify sources of methodological variation in Specimen Mammography Interpretatio...
SIGNIFICANCE: Oral cancer surgery requires accurate margin delineation to balance complete resection with post-operative functionality. Current fluorescence imaging systems provide two-dimensional margin assessment yet fail to quantify tumor depth p...
