The future role of cytologists regarding Telecytology and Rapid On-Site Evaluation (ROSE), a meta-narrative review
Get PDFThe use of Telecytology in conjunction with rapid on-site evaluation (ROSE) is currently at the forefront of discussion among cytologists and cytopathologists. In this meta-narrative review, the advancements of Telecytology and ROSE within the discipline of Cytology are discussed. Advancements in telecytology and ROSE enable off-site cytology slide evaluation and diagnosis through digital image transfer. ROSE allows for preliminary cytological assessment during image-guided biopsy procedures to determine specimen adequacy. The meta-narrative review concluded that the combination of these two technologies increases the efficacy of patient diagnosis without sacrificing the quality of patient care.
Improved communication between the presiding technician, the cytologists, and the pathologists was observed as a prominent result of the review. Additionally, the research recommends further testing in different anatomical areas to better understand how these technologies can benefit both patients and clinicians.
The methodology for this review involved determining a viable search criterion to comprehensively examine the advancements in telecytology and ROSE within the field of cytology. The phrases “telecytology”, “ROSE (rapid on-site evaluation)”, and “cytotechnology” were used to bring up peer-reviewed articles within the database, PubMed. From there, articles were dismissed from use according to date of publication. All articles over 5 years old were disregarded, exception of one article was used for a chronological timeline outlining the advancement of technology. The review concluded that the combination of these two technologies increases the efficacy of patient diagnosis without sacrificing quality of care. It also noted improved communication between technicians, cytologists, and pathologists as a key benefit.https://openworks.mdanderson.org/rmps24/1005/thumbnail.jp

The Role of Depression on the Ability to Achieve Smoking Abstinence
Get PDFWe investigated how depression affects smoking abstinence among cancer patients who participated in MD Anderson Cancer Center\u27s Tobacco Research and Treatment Program (TRTP), assessing outcomes three months post-enrollment. We also compared the likelihood of abstaining from smoking while accounting for nicotine dependence measured by the Fagerström Test for Cigarette Dependence (FTCD). The findings aimed to guide clinical practices in optimizing treatment of tobacco use disorder (TUD) to improve abstinence rates. Integrating comprehensive treatments for depression alongside standard TUD treatment holds promise for improving overall abstinence outcomes.https://openworks.mdanderson.org/stronger24/1005/thumbnail.jp
Auto-segmentation of structures in cervical cancer treatment planning using a deep learning framework
Get PDFIn this study, we explore whether the streamlined PocketNet architecture can perform comparably to the more robust nnU-Net framework for the auto-segmentation of pelvic structures and tumor volumes in the CT scans of cervical cancer patients.https://openworks.mdanderson.org/soar24/1004/thumbnail.jp
