Lung cancer is the most prevalent cancer and is the leading cause of cancer deaths worldwide. The overall survival rate of lung cancer patients is only 14%. Lives of cancer patients can be saved if the cancer is detected in the initial stages. Positron Emission Tomography / Computed Tomography (PET/CT) is the preferred imaging modality in cancer detection with improved diagnostic accuracy due to the...
Positron emission tomography - computed tomography (PETCT) is now accepted as the best imaging technique to accurately stage lung cancer. The consistent and accurate interpretation of PET-CT images, however, is not a trivial task. We propose a content-based image retrieval system for retrieving similar cases from an imaging database as a reference dataset to aid the physicians in PET-CT scan interpretation...
MicroRNAs are small non-coding RNAs of 21-25 nucleotides that might impact regulatory mechanisms in cancer. Due to their influence on cell physiology, alteration of miRNA regulation can be implicated in carcinogenesis and disease progression. In general, one miRNA is predicted to regulate several hundred genes, and as a result, miRNA profiling could serve as a better classifier than gene expression...
Coregistered fluoro-deoxy-glucose (FDG) positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT) has shown potential to improve the accuracy of radiation targeting of head and neck cancer (HNC) when compared to the use of CT simulation alone. The objective of this study was to identify textural features useful in distinguishing tumor from normal tissue in head and neck via quantitative texture analysis...
