(FRONTIERS MEDIA SA, 2021-01-20)High computational cost associated with digital pathology image analysis approaches is a challenge towards their translation in routine pathology clinic. Here, we propose a computationally efficient framework (SuperHistopath), ... -
Superpixel-Based Conditional Random Fields (SuperCRF): Incorporating Global and Local Context for Enhanced Deep Learning in Melanoma Histopathology.
(FRONTIERS MEDIA SA, 2019-10-11)Computational pathology-based cell classification algorithms are revolutionizing the study of the tumor microenvironment and can provide novel predictive/prognosis biomarkers crucial for the delivery of precision oncology. ... -
Supervised Machine-Learning Enables Segmentation and Evaluation of Heterogeneous Post-treatment Changes in Multi-Parametric MRI of Soft-Tissue Sarcoma.
(FRONTIERS MEDIA SA, 2019-10-10)Background: Multi-parametric MRI provides non-invasive methods for response assessment of soft-tissue sarcoma (STS) from non-surgical treatments. However, evaluation of MRI parameters over the whole tumor volume may not ... -
Survival and New Prognosticators in Metastatic Seminoma: Results From the IGCCCG-Update Consortium.
(LIPPINCOTT WILLIAMS & WILKINS, 2021-05-10)PURPOSE: The classification of the International Germ-Cell Cancer Collaborative Group (IGCCCG) has been a major advance in the management of germ-cell tumors, but relies on data of only 660 patients with seminoma treated ... -
Synergistic antitumour effects of rapamycin and oncolytic reovirus.
(NATURE PUBLISHING GROUP, 2018-05-01)There are currently numerous oncolytic viruses undergoing clinical trial evaluation in cancer patients and one agent, Talimogene laherparepvec, has been approved for the treatment of malignant melanoma. This progress ... -
Synovial Sarcoma of the Thyroid Gland, Diagnostic Pitfalls and Clinical Management.
(2018-09)Background/aim Synovial sarcoma is a soft tissue sarcoma that tends to affect young adults. There are few reports on primary synovial sarcoma of the thyroid and the aim of this study was to document the clinical and ... -
Synthetic 4D-CT of the thorax for treatment plan adaptation on MR-guided radiotherapy systems.
(IOP PUBLISHING LTD, 2019-05-23)MR-guided radiotherapy treatment planning utilises the high soft-tissue contrast of MRI to reduce uncertainty in delineation of the target and organs at risk. Replacing 4D-CT with MRI-derived synthetic 4D-CT would support ... -
T2-adjusted computed diffusion-weighted imaging: A novel method to enhance tumour visualisation.
(PERGAMON-ELSEVIER SCIENCE LTD, 2016-12-01)PURPOSE: To introduce T2-adjusted computed DWI (T2-cDWI), a method that provides synthetic images at arbitrary b-values and echo times (TEs) that improve tissue contrast by removing or increasing T2 contrast in diffusion-weighted ... -
T2-Weighted 4D Magnetic Resonance Imaging for Application in Magnetic Resonance-Guided Radiotherapy Treatment Planning.
(LIPPINCOTT WILLIAMS & WILKINS, 2017-10-01)OBJECTIVES: The aim of this study was to develop and verify a method to obtain good temporal resolution T2-weighted 4-dimensional (4D-T2w) magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) by using motion information from T1-weighted 4D ... -
Talimogene Laherparepvec and Pembrolizumab in Recurrent or Metastatic Squamous Cell Carcinoma of the Head and Neck (MASTERKEY-232): A Multicenter, Phase 1b Study.
(AMER ASSOC CANCER RESEARCH, 2020-10-01)PURPOSE: The prognosis for patients with recurrent or metastatic head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (R/M HNSCC) is poor, and only a minority of patients benefit from checkpoint immunotherapy. Talimogene laherparepvec ... -
Targeted deep sequencing of urothelial bladder cancers and associated urinary DNA: a 23-gene panel with utility for non-invasive diagnosis and risk stratification.
(WILEY, 2019-09-01)OBJECTIVES: To develop a focused panel of somatic mutations (SMs) present in the majority of urothelial bladder cancers (UBCs), to investigate the diagnostic and prognostic utility of this panel, and to compare the ... -
