Computer-aided detection of breast cancer: has promise outstripped performance?
The article by Gur et al. (1) in this issue of the Journal makes an important contribution to the literature on mammography screening in that it reports no difference in breast cancer detection and recall rates between mammograms read with computeraided detection and those interpreted by a single radiologist without computer-aided detection. Gur et al. present the recall rates and cancer detect...
متن کاملEarliest Detection of Oral Cancer Using Non-Invasive Brush Biopsy Including DNA-Image-Cytometry: Report on Four Cases
OBJECTIVE We describe four patients presenting early oral cancers, detected cytologically on non-invasive brush biopsies including DNA-image cytometry as an adjunctive method before histology on scalpel biopsies confirmed the evidence of malignancy. METHODS Brush biopsies were performed and smears thereof investigated cytologically. After Feulgen restaining, DNA-measurements were performed us...
متن کاملHigh throughput image cytometry for detection of suspicious lesions in the oral cavity.
The successful management of oral cancer depends upon early detection, which relies heavily on the clinician's ability to discriminate sometimes subtle alterations of the infrequent premalignant lesions from the more common reactive and inflammatory conditions in the oral mucosa. Even among experienced oral specialists this can be challenging, particularly when using new wide field-of-view dire...
متن کاملDNA cytometry of oral leukoplakia and oral lichen planus.
BACKGROUND DNA cytometry is a technique that allows densitometric analysis of nuclear DNA of cells and in this way the evaluation of DNA ploidy. OBJECTIVE The purpose of the present study was the evaluation of DNA ploidy in oral leukoplakia and oral lichen planus and correlation with histological dysplasia. METHODS We analyzed oral incisional biopsies from a group of 40 patients with oral l...
متن کاملUse of DNA image cytometry in addition to flow cytometry for the study of patients with advanced ovarian cancer.
Forty-five patients with advanced ovarian cancer were studied with both DNA flow cytometry (FCM) and automatic DNA image cytometry carried out with the Leiden Television Analysis System (Leytas). There was a significant difference in survival between the diploid and nondiploid cases as determined by FCM. Furthermore, the presence of nuclei with a high DNA content (defined as a DNA content highe...
