In this study an artificial intelligence (AI) tool for skin cancer diagnosis is implemented in a teleldermatoscopy platform. The aim is to study the effects on clinician diagnostic accuracy, management decisions, and confidence. Furthermore, this prospective randomized study investigates the role of human factors in determining clinician reliance on AI tools and the consequent accuracy in a real-world setting.
Background: The worldwide incidence of skin cancer has been rising for 50 years, in particular the incidence of malignant melanoma has increased approx. 2-7% annually and is the most common cancer amongst Danes aged 15-34. Currently there is a significant amount of misdiagnosis of skin cancer and mole cancer, and most excised skin lesions are benign. Previous studies have shown that there is no significant increase in doctors diagnostic accuracy during the first 6 years of clinical work. The resources spend on healthy people could be put to better use, if the Benign-Malignant Ratio could be lowered. This could...
This study is conducted in the United States of America (USA). The aim of the study is to monitor the number of annual new adult cases of medullary thyroid carcinoma (MTC) and to establish a registry for these new cases in order to identify any possible increase related to the introduction of liraglutide, exenatide once-weekly, and other GLP-1 receptor agonists into the US market.
Background: - People with chronic illness often are at risk for developing neurobehavioral problems due to effects of the disease or associated treatments. These problems may include cognitive impairments involving problem-solving, remembering things, paying attention, and understanding and using language, or emotional functioning or quality of life. - The National Cancer Institute Medical Illness Counseling Center Neuropsychology Group has collected data from neurobehavioral evaluations of infants, children, adolescents and adults with chronic illnesses enrolled in NIH protocols since 1987 and...
Multiple sensory cues are typically generated by discrete events, and while they do not reach the cerebrum simultaneously, the brain can bind them temporally if they are interpreted as corresponding to a single event. The temporal binding of vestibular and non-vestibular sensory cues is poorly understood and has not been studied in detail, despite the fact that the vestibular system operates in an inherently multimodal environment. In this study, the researchers are investigating the physiology and pathophysiology of vestibular temporal binding by studying normal subjects, patients with peripheral and central vestibular dysfunction,...
The goal of this clinical trial is provide new treatment for patients with advanced melanoma who have failed previous immunotherapy. The main questions it aims to answer are: - Efficacy of PD1 monoclonal antibody combined with recombinant human adenovirus type 5 injection in patients with advanced malignant melanoma. - Safety of PD1 monoclonal antibody combined with recombinant human adenovirus type 5 injection in patients with advanced malignant melanoma.
The purpose of this research study is to test new ways to improve the usefulness of the world's first total-body positron emission tomography (PET)/computed tomography (CT) scanner (EXPLORER) by collecting data from PET scans using one of three different imaging agents: 18F-PSMA; 18F-FES; or, 68Ga DOTATATE. These imaging agents are approved by the FDA to be used for patients diagnosed with prostate cancer (18F-PSMA), neuroendocrine tumor (68Ga DOTATATE), or breast cancer (18F-FES).
The purpose of this study is to investigate the pathologic features, complications, and prognostic factors of functioning adrenal adenoma and suggest follow-up algorithms for adrenal incidentaloma.
Background: Sleep disturbances are among the most common and severe symptoms reported by people with primary brain tumors (PBT). Smart wearable devices like Fitbits may be able to give detailed data about people s sleep and circadian rhythms. In this study, researchers will use Fitbits to learn more about sleep disruptions caused by tumors. This might help them design better future treatment and supportive care studies. Objective: To describe sleep disturbances and circadian disruption in people with PBT. Eligibility: English-speaking adults ages 18 and older who have PBT and are enrolled in the NIH study, ...
This research is being done to determine if CEST Magnetic Resonance Imaging and F-dopa PET are feasible techniques to detect metabolic differences between tumor and brain.
