Abstract:
Brain and central nervous cancer presents a significant clinical burden, accounting for 2.4% of all cancer deaths. High grade glioma is particularly deadly, with 5 year survival times of 35% or less. Traditional treatment includes tumor resection followed by radiation therapy or chemotherapy. Aggressive resection is essential in order to prolong patient life. In fact, several studies have shown that life expectancy increases with increased extent of resection. Extent of resection is burdened by the fact that surgeons must be careful not to remove functional brain tissue. Resection is

A brain tumor diagnosis is traumatic and has a devastating impact upon the caregiver and the family unit. The effects of the tumor growth and treatment often cause significant neurologic injury and dramatically affect the quality of life (QOL) for the patient and their entire family unit. Caregivers are constantly challenged to provide care, yet they feel untrained and underprepared as they struggle to adjust to new roles and responsibilities. The purpose of this study is to gain an understanding of the lived experiences of caregivers of individuals with primary benign brain tumor (PBBT). An i

Background: Brain tumors are the most common solid tumors found in children. Current research is determining whether diagnosing brain tumors earlier will help improve prognosis and reduce long-term deficits; however, childhood brain tumors are often diagnosed late with a median time of 1-4 months from onset of symptoms. Prolonged symptom intervals before diagnosis have been associated with life-threatening risks, neuro-cognitive disabilities, and detrimental professional relationships between healthcare providers and families.

Protein microarrays are becoming powerful tools to screen and identify tumor markers for cancer diagnosis, because of the multiplex detection and minute volume of sample requirement. Due to the diversity and variation in different cancers, no single tumor marker is sensitive and specific enough to meet strict diagnostic criteria. Therefore, a combination of tumor markers is required to increase sensitivity and to establish distinct patterns to increase specificity.

碩士<br>國立中央大學<br>生物醫學工程研究所<br>98<br>This thesis presents an artificial neural network (ANN) technique for breast tumor diagnosis expected to shorten measurement time and discriminate tumor categories. The method is design with four inputs (AD, AW1, AW2, α) passing through the artificial neural network (ANN) to obtain the tumor categories (contrast, radius, distance, radiation angle). The inputs represent the characteristics from the difference between the measured intensities of the inhomogeneous and the homogeneous phantom, and then the ANN is training by simulation data, which is simulated b

Abstract:
碩士<br>國立臺灣大學<br>資訊工程學研究所<br>98<br>Since the Doppler ultrasound (US) is successfully applied for detecting the blood flow, the studies of tumor vascularity have played important roles to diagnose diseases of breast recently. The tumor vascularity is critical for growth, invasion, and metastasis. In general, malignant tumors need more complex blood vessels to obtain sufficient nutrients for growing. In the past, researches about vascularity just count the number of vascular pixel or voxel to analyze the malignancy of tumor. However, the morphology characteristic can be employed to provide more i
