Artificial Intelligence (AI) already powers search results and chat bots, but what if it could help physicians diagnose cancer? In this episode of the BackTable ENT podcast, laryngologist Dr. Anthony Law of Emory University discusses applications of AI to laryngology with host Dr. Ashley Agan and guest host Dr. Mihir Patel, also of Emory. --- CHECK OUT OUR SPONSOR PearsonRavitz https://pearsonravitz.com/backtable --- SYNPOSIS First, Dr. Law discusses how he connects his passions for laryngology and machine learning as a surgeon-scientist. Before opening the conversation, he defines terms needed to understand AI in medicine. Then, he discusses his work using deep learning models to identify laryngeal cancer patients based on voice recordings. Ideally, he envisions deploying his model (which is over 90% accurate) to help primary care physicians make timely ENT referrals. Mindful of the impact technology has, Dr. Law reviews technical and ethical concerns accompanying use of AI in medicine, which include underrepresented patient groups in research, patient privacy, and safe use of technology. Finally, he offers insight into the future of AI research more broadly. --- TIMESTAMPS 00:00 - Introduction 04:18 - Understanding Deep Neural Networks 07:13 - Applications of AI in Clinical Practice 15:08 - Data Security and Privacy Concerns 25:09 - Collecting Representative Data 31:13 - Biometrics: The Future of Medicine? 39:12 - Challenges & Costs of AI 42:26 - Final Thoughts & Future Directions --- RESOURCES Pearson Ravitz https://pearsonravitz.com/ Dr. Anthony Law's Emory University Profile: https://winshipcancer.emory.edu/profiles/law-anthony.php Dr. Anthony Law Lab: https://anthonylaw2.wixsite.com/website “What Our Voice Reveals About Our Health,” Dr. Anthony Law at TedxAtlanta: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-J2W5IVCECE

Send us a Text Message.In the final episode of series 4 of BLA Connections: A Clear Voice, host Natalie Watson is joined by Professor Reza Nouraei, Consultant Laryngologist and Tracheal Surgeon at Queen's Medical Centre, Nottingham, to discuss how to oxygenate our patients whilst operating on the larynx under general anaesthetic. Prof Nouraei walks us step-by-step through THRIVE and other tubeless ventilation methods. “You have all the time in the world to put a scope in, as long as it's less than three minutes.”This quote from Prof David Howard, a global Laryngology pioneer and a friend and mentor to many UK Laryngologists including Prof Nouraei, was an inspiration to search for methods of increasing apnoea time.THRIVE is essentially a method of ventilating patients who are under general anaesthesia and under conditions of muscle paralysis (i.e. apnoea), by filling the upper airways with oxygen and by activating a ventilatory exchange process which increases the time to desaturation. As well as explaining the functions and indications for THRIVE, Prof Nouraei shares his tips and insights for using the procedure successfully, including which patients and conditions might not be suitable for it. We also discuss other ventilation strategies and new airway management tools for further improving them.To ensure that patients with acutely compromised airways are managed safely, it is vital to understand the anatomy of laryngoscopy and to appreciate how the sharp angle between the lips and the larynx is converted into a straight line. This enables the laryngologist to create safe access corridors for oxygenation and for shared-airway surgery after the patient has been anaesthetised and has been rendered apnoeic. Apnoeic ventilation has been a major game changer for our specialty, as well, more broadly, for the care of patients with complex and compromised airways whom, as laryngologists, we are regularly called upon to support. For more expert insight into all things laryngology, please do look back at other episodes in this series, including the management and patient journey of airway stenosis, persistent throat symptoms, and the ageing voice.

Send us a Text Message.In this episode of BLA Connections, A Clear Voice, we are joined by Professor Reza Nouraei, Consultant Laryngologist and Tracheal Surgeon at Queens Medical Center, Nottingham, UK, to discuss the exciting subject of artificial intelligence (AI) and its role in the future of laryngology and global healthcare.AI gives us the ability to classify voice signals, develop imaging programs for stroboscopy and high-speed laryngoscopy and identify regions of interest for further scrutiny. This can all help with areas where we are trying to take activity out of the operating room and into the outpatient setting. It has the potential to impact survival rates and early diagnosis of diseases such as Parkinson's.What about ‘big data'? “Big data is the engine of artificial intelligence.” It's most relevant to laryngology in terms of population science and feeds into personalised medicine. Big data sets can help increase access to healthcare, clear COVID-19 backlogs and, with multi-centre collaborations, it can help reduce health inequalities across the UK and around the world. So, what part will this kind of technology play in the future of laryngology? Prof Nouraei believes that technology can extend the reach of subspecialist laryngologists and be a means of supporting allied health colleagues. With AI and big data, we can bridge the healthcare gap and offer more specialised services with less need for supervision. This technology can make specialist knowledge that takes years to acquire more accessible and inclusive. “The big driving force in the NHS, and probably healthcare worldwide, is to get the right person in the right place to see the right [clinician] in the shortest possible time.” Artificial Intelligence can go a long way towards making this a reality.Contact InformationVisit www.britishlaryngological.org or download BLA Connect from your app store for further information and details on becoming a BLA member.Email: enquiries@britishlaryngological.org for any questions or topic suggestions you may have for future episodes.This show is brought to you by the BLA, you can follow us on Twitter, Facebook, Linkedin Contact InformationVisit www.britishlaryngological.org or download BLA Connect from your app store for further information and details on becoming a BLA member.Register for Cutting Edge Laryngology 2024, 2-4 October 2024, at the Royal Society of Medicine London, here.

Hello and welcome to Informatics in the Round, a podcast designed to help everyone become a part of the dialog about topics in biomedical informatics. To paraphrase Dorothy, “Exomes and genomes and VUSes…oh my!” Time to go back to high school biology, but not the version most of us took!!!!….the one they're teaching now. Our fourth episode of this year covers a very current informatics topic—how health care is using your genomic information to understand your symptoms and your diagnoses. This idea of genome-informed medicine is a major part of precision medicine. It's been at the center of cancer therapy for a few decades and is now becoming a part of health care beyond cancer. Here's the rub: most doctors don't know very much about it. So it's up to those of us who understand it and who specialize in informatics to come to the rescue. You'll meet three such informatician/genomic medicine experts on this episode. Sarah Bland, one of the most insightful and quick-witted people I have the pleasure of working with is on this podcast as both an expert in the issues and as the person who keeps it real. Melissa McPheeters is a public health informatics and epidemiology expert. For those of you who've been listening to IIR for over a year, you've heard Melissa discuss COVID with us before. However, her other life at Vanderbilt has been helping to coordinate and think critically about how we can bring patient's genomics into the care of everyday physicians and advanced practices nurses. As you'll see, although this is a relatively new area for her, she has mastered much of it! Travis Osterman is a physician I've often called the doctor's doctor (at least this doctor, should I ever get cancer.) He's the consummate professional and a terrific communicator. Because of his expertise in cancer informatics, he's one of the most knowledgeable people in the country about genome-informed care, and brings that knowledge to a very challenging discussion. We start off the discussion not with a songwriter/singer, but with a Songwriter/singer's most essential team member. Gaelyn Garrett is Senior Executive Medical Director of the Vanderbilt Voice Center, Guy M. Maness Chair, Laryngology and Voice, and Professor of Otolaryngology.
This episode features Dr. Inna Husain, section head of Laryngology and director of the Voice, Airway, and Swallowing Disorders Program at Rush University. She is also the Departmental Wellness Committee Chair, associate residency program director, and assistant professor in the Department of Otorhinolaryngology and Department of Communication Disorders and Sciences. We discuss maintaining wellness, challenging biases that women face, and demonstrating genuine interest as a student. She completed her medical degree at UT Southwestern in Dallas. She then went onto complete her otolaryngology residency at Northwestern, followed by a fellowship in laryngology and professional voice at Massachusetts Eye and Ear Infirmary.
This episode features Dr. Hayley Born, Laryngology fellow at the Sean Parker Institute for the Voice at Weill Cornell. She breaks down the subspecialty of laryngology, the value of a productive research year, and the art of communication. She completed her medical degree at Columbia University's College of Physicians and Surgeons. She then went onto complete her otolaryngology residency at University of Cincinnati. She serves as a leader in the Academy of Otolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, SRF, and Women in Otolaryngology Section. She has published 20 chapters and peer reviewed journal articles.
Our sixth episode takes an inside look into the subspecialty of laryngology with our guest Dr. Jun Lin! Dr. Lin attended medical school and otolaryngology residency at the University of British Columbia. She has a fellowship in laryngology and care of the professional voice, and a master's degree in science specializing in clinical research from the University of Pittsburgh Medical Center. She is an otolaryngologist and associate scientist at St. Michael's Hospital, and an assistant professor at the University of Toronto.

Tara interviews Dr. David Opperman, laryngologist from the Colorado Voice Clinic. He chats about when it's time to see a voice doctor, how they can find the vocal issues and the types of treatment that are available. It's a discussion that you won't want to miss if you are a singer! (5:15) The difference between an ENT (otolaryngologist) and a laryngologist (a true voice specialist) (7:35) Dr. Opperman explains what laryngitis is and how we can become hoarse as singers. (8:35) If hoarseness is happening more than 10 days, it is a good idea to have your voice checked. (10:00) Dr. Opperman talks about what kinds of vocal issues he sees that are the most common. Voice overuse is one of the big ones. (12:30) Assessing a vocal issue can be from hearing the voice and also doing a video stroboscopy (15:01) Injuries to the voice can happen in many ways. Often it can start in the speaking voice. (17:01) Stress environment factors and lack of hydration can cause vocal issues too. (18:25) Injections can help spasmodic dysphonia. It's a disease that is still hard to figure out. (19:30) Injections can be used for things like Parkinson's Disease and Spasmodic Dysphonia. (20:35) Nodules—how they form and how they are treated. Vocal therapy, botox, vocal rest and hydration can all help. (22:19) Surgery can benefit people when the voice issue necessitates help that only removal of something can do. (22:35) Transition using therapy after surgery or diagnosis is often administered. Speech therapy can be one aspect of that transition. (24:17) Also looking at bad habits and adjusting them can help. (25:20) If you have pain while singing, stop and get it checked out! (26:22) Take the time to identify and observe your voice and get help sooner than later. (27:33) Is it wise to do a vocal checkup at the voice doctor annually or at least to get a baseline? (28:50) Dr. Opperman can consult over the phone to help you find a way to get your issues diagnosed. If he can't get you into his clinic, he will try to find help with a laryngologist near you. To contact Dr. Opperman, go to his website: www.coloradovoiceclinic.com Phone: 1-303-844-3000 Also, there is the Academy of Otolaryngologists where you can get a list of physicians around the country. https://www.entnet.org For more discussion and and keeping the conversation going, please feel free to join my new FACEBOOK group: The Engaging Voice Singers (community) Here is the link: https://www.facebook.com/groups/275720043147345/ You can find this and other episodes on theengingvoice.com and at Stitcher, Google Play, Spotify, iHeart radio, and iTunes Please go to iTunes and click on RATINGS AND REVIEWS to rate this podcast.
