Deep Learning for nasopharyngeal Carcinoma Identification Using Both White Light and Narrow-Band Imaging Endoscopy.

The Laryngoscope
OBJECTIVES/HYPOTHESIS: To develop a deep-learning-based automatic diagnosis system for identifying nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) from noncancer (inflammation and hyperplasia), using both white light imaging (WLI) and narrow-band imaging (NBI) nasoph...

A deep learning-based radiomic nomogram for prognosis and treatment decision in advanced nasopharyngeal carcinoma: A multicentre study.

EBioMedicine
BACKGROUND: Induction chemotherapy (ICT) plus concurrent chemoradiotherapy (CCRT) and CCRT alone were the optional treatment regimens in locoregionally advanced nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) patients. Currently, the choice of them remains equivocal ...

Deep Learning-Guided Fiberoptic Raman Spectroscopy Enables Real-Time Diagnosis and Assessment of Nasopharyngeal Carcinoma and Post-treatment Efficacy during Endoscopy.

Analytical chemistry
In this work, we develop a deep learning-guided fiberoptic Raman diagnostic platform to assess its ability of real-time nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) diagnosis and post-treatment follow-up of NPC patients. The robust Raman diagnostic platform is es...

An interpretable machine learning prognostic system for locoregionally advanced nasopharyngeal carcinoma based on tumor burden features.

Oral oncology
OBJECTIVES: We aimed to build a survival system by combining a highly-accurate machine learning (ML) model with explainable artificial intelligence (AI) techniques to predict distant metastasis in locoregionally advanced nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC...

Computer-aided diagnosis and regional segmentation of nasopharyngeal carcinoma based on multi-modality medical images.

International journal of computer assisted radiology and surgery
PURPOSE: Nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) is a category of tumors with high incidence in head-and-neck (H&N) body region, and the diagnosis and treatment planning are usually conducted by radiologists manually, which is tedious, time-consuming and unre...

Convolutional neural network in nasopharyngeal carcinoma: how good is automatic delineation for primary tumor on a non-contrast-enhanced fat-suppressed T2-weighted MRI?

Japanese journal of radiology
PURPOSE: Convolutional neural networks (CNNs) show potential for delineating cancers on contrast-enhanced MRI (ce-MRI) but there are clinical scenarios in which administration of contrast is not desirable. We investigated performance of the CNN for d...

DVH Prediction for VMAT in NPC with GRU-RNN: An Improved Method by Considering Biological Effects.

BioMed research international
PURPOSE: A recurrent neural network (RNN) and its variants such as gated recurrent unit-based RNN (GRU-RNN) were found to be very suitable for dose-volume histogram (DVH) prediction in our previously published work. Using the dosimetric information g...

Continual improvement of nasopharyngeal carcinoma segmentation with less labeling effort.

Physica medica : PM : an international journal devoted to the applications of physics to medicine and biology : official journal of the Italian Association of Biomedical Physics (AIFB)
PURPOSE: Convolutional neural networks (CNNs) offer a promising approach to automated segmentation. However, labeling contours on a large scale is laborious. Here we propose a method to improve segmentation continually with less labeling effort.
