Introduction: Precision medicine refers to managing brain tumors according to each patient's unique characteristics when it was realized that patients with the same type of tumor differ greatly in terms of survival, responsiveness to treatment, and toxicity of medication. Precision diagnostics can now be advanced through the establishment of imaging biomarkers, which necessitates quantitative image acquisition and processing. The VASARI (Visually AcceSAble Rembrandt Images) manual annotation methodology is an ideal and suitable way to determine the accurate association between genotype and imaging phenotype.

The aim of this study was to assess whether the extent of previous endoscopic sinus surgeries, assessed by means of the Amsterdam Classification of Completeness of Endoscopic Sinus Surgery (ACCESS) score, may influence clinical outcomes in refractory CRSwNP patients treated with dupilumab.
Materials And Methods: A consecutive sample of patients treated with dupilumab for previously operated recalcitrant CRSwNP were enrolled in the study.
Background: Hospital at Home (HaH) is a growing care model requiring significant investments. Critical to starting a program is estimating census and enrollments. The objective of this study was to compare expected versus actual consults, enrollments, and barriers in a novel HaH program.
