INTRODUCTION: According to the World Health Organization, the tall cell variant (TCV) is an aggressive subtype of papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC) comprising at least 30% epithelial cells two to three times as tall as they are wide. In practice, app...
BACKGROUND: Thyroid cancer (THCA) is the most common endocrine malignancy and incidence is increasing. There is an urgent need to better understand the molecular differences between THCA tumors at different pathologic stages so appropriate diagnostic...

OBJECTIVES: We aimed to design a radiomics model for differential diagnosis of thyroid carcinoma based on dynamic ultrasound video, and compare its diagnostic performance with that of radiomics model based on static ultrasound images.
In the last decade, robot-assisted trans-axillary thyroidectomy has spread rapidly and has been proven to be a safe and effective procedure. However, several case series have reported new complications that have led to criticism regarding this approa...
Accurate quantification of nerves in cancer specimens is important to understand cancer behaviour. Typically, nerves are manually detected and counted in digitised images of thin tissue sections from excised tumours using immunohistochemistry. Howeve...
Early detection of malignant thyroid nodules leading to patient-specific treatments can reduce morbidity and mortality rates. Currently, thyroid specialists use medical images to diagnose then follow the treatment protocols, which have limitations du...
PURPOSE: The incidence of thyroid cancer has significantly increased in the last few decades. However, diagnosis of the thyroid nodules is labor and time intensive for radiologists and strongly depends on the personal experience of the radiologists. ...
BACKGROUND: This study aims to report the results of a pioneering clinical study using the single-port transaxillary robotic thyroidectomy (START) for 200 patients with thyroid tumor and to introduce our novel two-step retraction method.
To compare the diagnostic performances of physicians and a deep convolutional neural network (CNN) predicting malignancy with ultrasonography images of thyroid nodules with atypia of undetermined significance (AUS)/follicular lesion of undetermined s...
When approaching thyroid gland tumor classification, the differentiation between samples with and without "papillary thyroid carcinoma-like" nuclei is a daunting task with high inter-observer variability among pathologists. Thus, there is increasing ...
