Exploratory analysis of using supervised machine learning in [18F] FDG PET/CT images to predict treatment response in patients with metastatic and recurrent Brest tumors

Aim: Despite grate progress in treatments, breast cancer is still the most common invasive cancer and the most cause of cancer related death in women. Treatment could be improved and perhaps standardized if more reliable markers for tumour progression and poor prognosis could be developed. The aim of this study was to evaluate whether patient-based machine learning (ML) driven ...

Hypoxia in Head and Neck Cancer in Theory and Practice: A PET-Based Imaging Approach

Hypoxia plays an important role in tumour recurrence among head and neck cancer patients. The identification and quantification of hypoxic regions are therefore an essential aspect of disease management. Several predictive assays for tumour oxygenation status have been developed in the past with varying degrees of success. To date, functional imaging techniques employing positron emission tomog...

Predicting tumour response

Response prediction is an important emerging concept in oncologic imaging, with tailored, individualized treatment regimens increasingly becoming the standard of care. This review aims to define tumour response and illustrate the ways in which imaging techniques can demonstrate tumour biological characteristics that provide information on the likely benefit to be received by treatment. Two imag...

In vivo imaging of cellular proliferation in renal cell carcinoma using 18F-fluorothymidine PET

Objective(s): The ability to measure cellular proliferation non-invasively in renal cell carcinoma may allow prediction of tumour aggressiveness and response to therapy. The aim of this study was to evaluate the uptake of 18Ffluorothymidine (FLT) PET in renal cell carcinoma (RCC), and to compare this to 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG), and to an immunohistochemical measure of cellular proliferatio...

Investigating the functional communication network in patients with knee osteoarthritis using graph-based statistical models

Introduction: Osteoarthritis of the knee is the most prevalent type of arthritis that causes persistent pain and reduces the quality of life. However, no treatment alleviates symptoms or stops the disease from progressing. Functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) studies can provide information on neural mechanisms of pain by assessing correlation patterns among the different regions of the...
