A multi-perspective information aggregation network for automated-staging detection of nasopharyngeal carcinoma.

Physics in medicine and biology
Accurate-staging is important when planning personalized radiotherapy. However,-staging via manual slice-by-slice inspection is time-consuming while tumor sizes and shapes are heterogeneous, and junior physicians find such inspection challenging. Wit...

Improved accuracy of auto-segmentation of organs at risk in radiotherapy planning for nasopharyngeal carcinoma based on fully convolutional neural network deep learning.

Oral oncology
OBJECTIVE: We examined a modified encoder-decoder architecture-based fully convolutional neural network, OrganNet, for simultaneous auto-segmentation of 24 organs at risk (OARs) in the head and neck, followed by validation tests and evaluation of cli...

DeepMTS: Deep Multi-Task Learning for Survival Prediction in Patients With Advanced Nasopharyngeal Carcinoma Using Pretreatment PET/CT.

IEEE journal of biomedical and health informatics
Nasopharyngeal Carcinoma (NPC) is a malignant epithelial cancer arising from the nasopharynx. Survival prediction is a major concern for NPC patients, as it provides early prognostic information to plan treatments. Recently, deep survival models base...

Deep Learning Fuzzy Inference: An Interpretable Model for Detecting Indirect Immunofluorescence Patterns Associated with Nasopharyngeal Cancer.

The American journal of pathology
The detection of serum Epstein-Barr virus antibodies by immunofluorescence assay (IFA) is considered the gold standard screening test for nasopharyngeal cancer (NPC) in high-risk populations. Given the high survival rate after early detection in asym...

Magnetic Resonance Imaging Features on Deep Learning Algorithm for the Diagnosis of Nasopharyngeal Carcinoma.

Contrast media & molecular imaging
The objective of this research was to investigate the application values of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) features of the deep learning-based image super-resolution reconstruction algorithm optimized convolutional neural network (OPCNN) algorithm ...

Deep learning signatures reveal multiscale intratumor heterogeneity associated with biological functions and survival in recurrent nasopharyngeal carcinoma.

European journal of nuclear medicine and molecular imaging
PURPOSE: How to discriminate different risks of recurrent nasopharyngeal carcinoma (rNPC) patients and guide individual treatment has become of great importance. This study aimed to explore the associations between deep learning signatures and biolog...

Deep learning for locally advanced nasopharyngeal carcinoma prognostication based on pre- and post-treatment MRI.

Computer methods and programs in biomedicine
PURPOSE: We aimed to predict the prognosis of advanced nasopharyngeal carcinoma (stage Ⅲ-Ⅳa) using Pre- and Post-treatment MR images based on deep learning (DL).

Dose prediction via distance-guided deep learning: Initial development for nasopharyngeal carcinoma radiotherapy.

Radiotherapy and oncology : journal of the European Society for Therapeutic Radiology and Oncology
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Geometric information such as distance information is essential for dose calculations in radiotherapy. However, state-of-the-art dose prediction methods use only binary masks without distance information. This study aims to de...

Deep Learning-Based Automatic Assessment of Radiation Dermatitis in Patients With Nasopharyngeal Carcinoma.

International journal of radiation oncology, biology, physics
PURPOSE: Radiation dermatitis (RD) is a common, unpleasant side effect of patients receiving radiation therapy. In clinical practice, the severity of RD is graded manually through visual inspection, which is labor intensive and often leads to large i...

The contrast-enhanced MRI can be substituted by unenhanced MRI in identifying and automatically segmenting primary nasopharyngeal carcinoma with the aid of deep learning models: An exploratory study in large-scale population of endemic area.

Computer methods and programs in biomedicine
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: Administration of contrast is not desirable for all cases in clinical setting, and no consensus in sequence selection for deep learning model development has been achieved, thus we aim to explore whether contrast-enhanced m...
