Head & neck oncologic / reconstructive surgeon at the University of Kansas Medical Center, AI researcher, improving cancer care with compassionate technologies
Proud of another product from our multidisciplinary team @KU_ENT working to improve outcomes for patients with head and neck cancer. Thanks especially to @drandresbur@JohnFlynnENT Heather Gibbs, PhD for launching this idea.

It was great to visit Penn (virtually) to give grand rounds this morning on AI in otorhinolaryngology. I enjoyed catching up with mentors and old friends!
#ASCO2021@RobertFerrisMD presents ECOG 3311 update - 3y PFS 94.9% (TOS+50Gy) vs 93.5% (TOS+60Gy). Potential QoL/tox benefits with 50Gy.
Do we need more evidence to recommend 50Gy following TOS for close margins (<3mm), 2-3 LN, ≤1mm ENE and PNI/LVI? #hncsm
We finished a busy afternoon head and neck clinic with a new patient presenting with a hard palate mass (torus palatinus) who was very grateful for Dr. Kavookjian’s frenulectomy skills. @KU_ENT
Last day in the OR with our awesome head and neck fellow, Dr. Kahue. Memphis will be lucky to have her. And she gave me an emergency laryngopharyngectomy reconstruction kit. In case if emergency, break glass.
Head and neck surgeons in the US and Canada- please complete our 5 minute survey designed to assess priorities and concerns in treating head and neck cancer patients during the COVID-19 pandemic. Thank you! https://t.co/g4P2q3WO6i
The president promised that every American would have access to coronavirus testing.
But Kansas has so few tests right now that you can't get one in Johnson County, even if you have symptoms.
I’m disappointed in the federal government.
It was an honor to receive the @NSDA_SD Travel Award for our study. Thanks to @Triological for the opportunity to present and to my collaborator @s_kraft
@NSDA_SD Travel Award winner: Automated Detection & Classification of Laryngeal Lesions Using Deep Learning from @KU_ENT. This may help improve training novice clinicians or patients who have limited access to otolaryngologists. #Trio2020#Triological
