Triage-driven diagnosis for early detection of oesophageal cancer
… early detection feasible. A novel test called Cytosponge for diagnosing Barrett by cell collection coupled with an immunohistochemical test (Trefoil factor 3 / TFF3) has been developed. I have investigated two distinct topics, which are key to implement the Cytosponge-TFF3 test in primary and …

Enhancing Early Detection of Oesophageal Squamous Cell Carcinoma Through Shallow Whole-Genome Sequencing and Non-Endoscopic Sponge Sampling
… sponge pan-oesophageal sampling device (Cytosponge) for the early detection of OSCC and its precursor lesions, oesophageal squamous cell dysplasia (OSD). To achieve this, I utilised previously unexamined samples from two prospective studies: the Early Detection and Surveillance of …

Deep learning on whole-slide images for early detection and risk prediction of oesophageal cancer
… screening device for BE detection called the Cytosponge presents a solution. Despite this advance, only 0.3% of BE cases progress to cancer per patient-year, leading to a large number of costly and invasive follow-up procedures. I have therefore developed machine learning systems to predict …
