BACKGROUND
The objective of this study was to evaluate the short‐term and long‐term outcomes of adult patients with hematologic malignancies who received chemotherapy in the intensive care unit (ICU).
METHODS
This was a retrospective, single‐center study comparing the outcomes of patients with hematologic malignancies who received chemotherapy in the ICU with a matched cohort of ICU patients who...
In clinical practice, renal cancer diagnosis is performed by manual quantifications of tumor size and enhancement, which are time consuming and show high variability. We propose a computer-assisted clinical tool to assess and classify renal tumors in contrast-enhanced CT for the management and classification of kidney tumors. The quantification of lesions used level-sets and a statistical refinement...
It is estimated that a quarter of a million people in the USA are living with kidney cancer. In clinical practice, the response to treatment is monitored by manual measurements of tumor size, which are time consuming and show high intra- and inter-operator variability. We propose a computer-assisted radiology tool to assess renal tumors in contrast-enhanced CT for the management of tumor diagnoses...
This randomized controlled trial aimed to determine whether an interactive CD-ROM improved cancer patients’ recall of chemotherapy treatment information over standard written information, and whether demographic, cognitive, and psychological factors better predicted recall than this format of delivery.One-hundred-and-one new patients about to commence chemotherapy were randomized to receive written...
