Journal ArticleDOI

Molecular imaging for cancer diagnosis and surgery

TL;DR: A truly theranostic approach with the further addition of therapeutic agents to the molecular probe for adjuvant therapy is conceivable for the future.
Journal ArticleDOI

Analysis of age and disease status as predictors of thyroid cancer-specific mortality using the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results database.

TL;DR: Comparing HRs for T, N, and M stage between young and old patient subgroups showed that advanced disease increased the risk for DSS regardless of age, and was oftentimes a worse prognosticator in young patient groups.
Journal ArticleDOI

Fluorescently labeled peptide increases identification of degenerated facial nerve branches during surgery and improves functional outcome.

TL;DR: It is shown here that the use of fluorescently labeled nerve binding probe (F-NP41) can improve intraoperative visualization of chronically denervated nerves of chronically (up to 9 months) denervate nerves during surgical repair in live animals.
Journal ArticleDOI

Radioactive iodine in differentiated thyroid cancer: a national database perspective.

TL;DR: Iodine therapy showed varied efficacy within each subgroup of patients with differentiated thyroid cancer, and radioactive iodine therapy was protective in high-risk patients, but did not achieve statistical significance in most intermediate-risk subgroups.
Journal ArticleDOI

Laminin targeting of a peripheral nerve-highlighting peptide enables degenerated nerve visualization

TL;DR: Nerve highlighting has the potential to improve surgical outcomes by facilitating intraoperative nerve identification, reducing accidental nerve transection, and facilitating repair of damaged nerves, and a receptor capture method was developed, enabling covalent tagging and identification of proteins within close proximity to a bound ligand.
