Evaluation of anthropometric and ultrasonographic measurements with different machine learning methods in predicting difficult intubation: a prospective observational study.

BMC anesthesiology
INTRODUCTION: Difficult intubation is one of the most challenging scenarios to deal with due to increased morbidity and mortality. Machine learning systems can help predict this process in advance. This study aimed to predict whether patients had dif...

Assessing the feasibility of deep learning-based attenuation correction using photon emission data inF-FDG images for dedicated head and neck PET scanners.

Biomedical physics & engineering express
This study aimed to evaluate the use of deep learning techniques to produce measured attenuation-corrected (MAC) images from non-attenuation-corrected (NAC) F-FDG PET images, focusing on head and neck imaging. A Residual Network (ResNet) was used to ...

Deep learning detects retropharyngeal edema on MRI in patients with acute neck infections.

European radiology experimental
BACKGROUND: In acute neck infections, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) shows retropharyngeal edema (RPE), which is a prognostic imaging biomarker for a severe course of illness. This study aimed to develop a deep learning-based algorithm for the auto...

Deep Learning Model of Primary Tumor and Metastatic Cervical Lymph Nodes From CT for Outcome Predictions in Oropharyngeal Cancer.

JAMA network open
IMPORTANCE: Primary tumor (PT) and metastatic cervical lymph node (LN) characteristics are highly associated with oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma (OPSCC) prognosis. Currently, there is a lack of studies to combine imaging characteristics of bot...

Intelligent Diagnosis of Cervical Lymph Node Metastasis Using a CNN Model.

Journal of dental research
Lymph node (LN) metastasis is a prevalent cause of recurrence in oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC). However, accurately identifying metastatic LNs (LNs+) remains challenging. This prospective clinical study aims to test the effectiveness of our con...

Distinguishing severe sleep apnea from habitual snoring using a neck-wearable piezoelectric sensor and deep learning: A pilot study.

Computers in biology and medicine
This study explores the development of a deep learning model using a neck-wearable piezoelectric sensor to accurately distinguish severe sleep apnea syndrome (SAS) from habitual snoring, addressing the underdiagnosis of SAS in adults. From 2018 to 20...

Dual-type deep learning-based image reconstruction for advanced denoising and super-resolution processing in head and neck T2-weighted imaging.

Japanese journal of radiology
PURPOSE: To assess the utility of dual-type deep learning (DL)-based image reconstruction with DL-based image denoising and super-resolution processing by comparing images reconstructed with the conventional method in head and neck fat-suppressed (Fs...

Artificial intelligence-assisted precise preoperative prediction of lateral cervical lymph nodes metastasis in papillary thyroid carcinoma via a clinical-CT radiomic combined model.

International journal of surgery (London, England)
OBJECTIVES: This study aimed to develop an artificial intelligence-assisted model for the preoperative prediction of lateral cervical lymph node metastasis (LCLNM) in papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC) using computed tomography (CT) radiomics, providi...

Artificial Intelligence in CT for Predicting Cervical Lymph Node Metastasis in Papillary Thyroid Cancer Patients: A Meta-analysis.

Academic radiology
PURPOSE: This meta-analysis aims to evaluate the diagnostic performance of CT-based artificial intelligence (AI) in diagnosing cervical lymph node metastasis (LNM) of papillary thyroid cancer (PTC).
