- Malignant seeding of the PEG stoma is a rare complication associated with PEG procedures in head and neck cancer patients.
- A specific case supports the idea of vascular spread rather than just direct seeding as a cause of metastasis.
- The text includes images to aid non-gastroenterology healthcare providers in recognizing and managing this unusual condition.
Background: The objective of the current study was to test the hypothesis that the cytologic diagnosis of cancer cells can be enhanced by the technique of hyperspectral imaging (HSI).
Methods: As a proof of principle, HSI was employed to obtain hyperspectrum from a normal human fibroblast, as well as its telomerase-immortalized and SV40-transformed derivatives. Novel algorithms were developed to differentiate among these cell models based on spectral and spatial differences.
