    • Two-dimensional viscoelastic imaging using an enhanced FDTD-AHI approach
    Authors: Tran, Quang-Huy;  Advisor: Nguyen, Thi Hoang Yen; Le, Truong Giang; Tran, Duc-Tan T;  Co-Author: - (2021)

    Ultrasound viscoelastography is a quantitative and convenient imaging model that images soft tissues based on shear waves’ propagation. Thanks to the interaction between ultrasonic waves and shear waves, the physical features of soft tissues (elasticity, viscosity) are expressed by complex shear modulus (CSM) parameters, useful information for diagnosing tissue medical states. Therefore, this paper presented a new efficient approach to estimate CSM and reconstruct the viscoelastic images.
    • Emerging roles of non‑coding RNAs in the response of rectal cancer to radiotherapy
    Authors: Ha Thi, Huyen Trang;  Advisor: Duong, Hong‑Quan; Hong, Suntaek;  Co-Author: - (2021)

    Radiotherapy (RT) followed by radical surgery is an effective standard treatment strategy for various types of cancer, including rectal cancer. The response to RT varies among patients, and the radiosensitivity of cancer cells determines the clinical outcome of patients. However, the application of RT to patients with radioresistant tumors may result in radiation‑induced toxicity without clinical benefits. Currently, there are no effective methods to predict the response to RT. The limitations of the methods currently used to evaluate tumor radiosensitivity, which are mainly based on clinical and radiological features, are low sensitivity and specificity. Non‑coding RNAs (ncRNAs) have emerged as a class of biomarkers for predicting radiosensitivity. In particular, the expression pat...
