An ultrasound-based ensemble machine learning model for the preoperative classification of pleomorphic adenoma and Warthin tumor in the parotid gland.

European radiology
OBJECTIVES: The preoperative classification of pleomorphic adenomas (PMA) and Warthin tumors (WT) in the parotid gland plays an essential role in determining therapeutic strategies. This study aims to develop and validate an ultrasound-based ensemble...

Neural network and spline-based regression for the prediction of salivary hypofunction in patients undergoing radiation therapy.

Radiation oncology (London, England)
BACKGROUND: This study leverages a large retrospective cohort of head and neck cancer patients in order to develop machine learning models to predict radiation induced hyposalivation from dose-volume histograms of the parotid glands.

Deep learning-assisted diagnosis of parotid gland tumors by using contrast-enhanced CT imaging.

Oral diseases
OBJECTIVES: Imaging interpretation of the benignancy or malignancy of parotid gland tumors (PGTs) is a critical consideration prior to surgery in view of therapeutic and prognostic values of such discrimination. This study investigates the applicatio...

Deep learning model developed by multiparametric MRI in differential diagnosis of parotid gland tumors.

European archives of oto-rhino-laryngology : official journal of the European Federation of Oto-Rhino-Laryngological Societies (EUFOS) : affiliated with the German Society for Oto-Rhino-Laryngology - Head and Neck Surgery
PURPOSE: To create a new artificial intelligence approach based on deep learning (DL) from multiparametric MRI in the differential diagnosis of common parotid tumors.

Feasibility of using the postauricular-groove approach without endoscopic assistant for excision of parotid tumors. Results from a series of 58 cases.

Journal of cranio-maxillo-facial surgery : official publication of the European Association for Cranio-Maxillo-Facial Surgery
The aim of the study was to evaluate the efficacy and preliminary outcomes of using a postauricular-groove approach without endoscopic assistance for the excision of parotid tumors. Patients who underwent parotidectomy using a postauricular-groove in...

Quantitative salivary gland SPECT/CT using deep convolutional neural networks.

Scientific reports
Quantitative single-photon emission computed tomography/computed tomography (SPECT/CT) using Tc-99m pertechnetate aids in evaluating salivary gland function. However, gland segmentation and quantitation of gland uptake is challenging. We develop a sa...

Machine Learning Models for Predicting Facial Nerve Palsy in Parotid Gland Surgery for Benign Tumors.

The Journal of surgical research
BACKGROUND: Despite the increasing use of intraoperative facial nerve monitoring during parotid gland surgery (PGS) and the improvement in the preoperative radiological assessment, facial nerve injury (FNI) remains the most severe complication after ...

Investigating the potential of deep learning for patient-specific quality assurance of salivary gland contours using EORTC-1219-DAHANCA-29 clinical trial data.

Acta oncologica (Stockholm, Sweden)
INTRODUCTION: Manual quality assurance (QA) of radiotherapy contours for clinical trials is time and labor intensive and subject to inter-observer variability. Therefore, we investigated whether deep-learning (DL) can provide an automated solution to...

Diagnostic accuracy of deep-learning with anomaly detection for a small amount of imbalanced data: discriminating malignant parotid tumors in MRI.

Scientific reports
We hypothesized that, in discrimination between benign and malignant parotid gland tumors, high diagnostic accuracy could be obtained with a small amount of imbalanced data when anomaly detection (AD) was combined with deep leaning (DL) model and the...
