Abstract The trans-sulfuration enzyme cystathionine-β-synthase (CBS) and its product hydrogen sulfide (H2S) are aberrantly upregulated in colorectal cancers, where they contribute to tumor growth progression by both autocrine paracrine mechanisms. However, it is unknown whether the CBS/H2S axis plays a role carcinogenesis. Here, we report upregulation of CBS human biopsies precancerous adenomatous polyps show that forced an adenoma-like colonic epithelial cell line sufficient induce...
Glioblastoma is an aggressive brain tumor with a propensity for intracranial recurrence. We hypothesized that tumors can be visualized diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) before they are detected on anatomical magnetic resonance (MR) images. retrospectively analyzed serial MR images from 30 patients, including the DTI and T1-weighted at recurrence, 2 months 4 1 month after radiation therapy. The maps T1 were deformably registered longitudinally. recurrent was manually segmented image then applied...
PURPOSE We developed a deep neural network that queries the lung computed tomography–derived feature space to identify radiation sensitivity parameters can predict treatment failures and hence guide individualization of radiotherapy dose. In this article, we examine transportability model across health systems. METHODS This multicenter cohort-based registry included 1,120 patients with cancer in treated stereotactic body radiotherapy. Pretherapy tomography images from internal study cohort...
Deep learning (DL) models that use medical images to predict clinical outcomes are poised for translation. For tumors reside in organs move, however, the impact of motion (i.e., degenerated object appearance or blur) on DL model accuracy remains unclear. We examine tumor an image-based framework predicts local failure risk after lung stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT).We input pre-therapy free breathing (FB) computed tomography (CT) from 849 patients treated with SBRT into a multitask...
Screening mammography has helped to identify countless incidences of breast cancer since its adoption in the 1960s. Over time, screening guidelines and techniques have been refined better detect malignancies avoid false positive results. However, weaknesses remain represent an opportunity for improvement. The interference natural tissue glands can obscure presence occult malignancies. Additionally, inability differentiate on basis depth, compounding densities that occurs as a consequence...
This secondary image analysis of a randomized trial proton radiotherapy (PT) versus photon intensity-modulated (IMRT) compares tumor progression based on clinical radiological assessment Response Assessment in Neuro-Oncology (RANO).Eligible patients were enrolled the and had MR imaging at baseline follow-up beyond 12 weeks from completion radiotherapy. "Clinical progression" was radiology report and/or change treatment for progression.Of 90 patients, 66 evaluable. Median progression-free...
