Percutaneous thermal ablation is a validated treatment option for small hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Steatotic HCC can be reliably detected by magnetic resonance imaging. To determine the clinical relevance of this radiological variant, we include...
Metastasis is the leading cause of mortalities in cancer patients due to the spreading of cancer cells to various organs. Detecting cancer and identifying its metastatic potential at the early stage is important. This may be achieved based on the qua...
Cancer mortality is mostly related to metastasis. Metastasis is currently prognosed via histopathology, disease-statistics, or genetics; those are potentially inaccurate, not rapidly available and require known markers. We had developed a rapid (~ 2 ...
BACKGROUND: Contemporary deep learning approaches show cutting-edge performance in a variety of complex prediction tasks. Nonetheless, the application of deep learning in healthcare remains limited since deep learning methods are often considered as ...
We present a robust deep learning-based framework for dose calculations of abdominal tumours in a 1.5 T MRI radiotherapy system. For a set of patient plans, a convolutional neural network is trained on the dose of individual multi-leaf-collimator seg...
Thyroid cancer (TC) is the most common endocrine malignancy. Most TCs have a favorable prognosis, whereas anaplastic thyroid carcinoma (ATC) is a lethal form of cancer. Different genetic and epigenetic alterations have been identified in aggressive f...
BACKGROUND: Today, there are a lot of markers on the prognosis and diagnosis of complex diseases such as primary breast cancer. However, our understanding of the drivers that influence cancer aggression is limited.
Cancer of unknown primary (CUP) origin is an enigmatic group of diagnoses in which the primary anatomical site of tumour origin cannot be determined. This poses a considerable challenge, as modern therapeutics are predominantly specific to the primar...
Epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) and its reverse process, mesenchymal-epithelial transition (MET), are believed to play key roles in facilitating the metastatic cascade. Metastatic lesions often exhibit a similar epithelial-like state to that ...
Background Patterns of metastasis in cancer are increasingly relevant to prognostication and treatment planning but have historically been documented by means of autopsy series. Purpose To show the feasibility of using natural language processing (NL...
