Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Cancer
  • Surgery
  • Internal medicine

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Surgery, Pathology, Radiation therapy, Neck dissection and Head and neck cancer. Alfio Ferlito has included themes like Cancer, Carcinoma and Epidermoid carcinoma in his Surgery study. His research in Pathology intersects with topics in Larynx and Metastasis.

His research investigates the connection between Metastasis and topics such as Lymph node that intersect with problems in Cervical lymph nodes. His work carried out in the field of Radiation therapy brings together such families of science as Salvage therapy and Otorhinolaryngology. His study in Neck dissection is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Stage, Mucosal melanoma, Accessory nerve and Dissection.

His most cited work include:

  • Consensus Statement on the Classification and Terminology of Neck Dissection (316 citations)
  • Incidence and Sites of Distant Metastases from Head and Neck Cancer (265 citations)
  • Current trends in initial management of oropharyngeal cancer: the declining use of open surgery. (242 citations)

What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?

Alfio Ferlito spends much of his time researching Pathology, Surgery, Larynx, Radiation therapy and Cancer. Pathology is closely attributed to Metastasis in his study. His Surgery study combines topics in areas such as Epidermoid carcinoma and Neck dissection.

His Larynx research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Neoplasm, Lesion and Paraganglioma. His Radiation therapy research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Neurosurgery and Chemotherapy. The Cancer study combines topics in areas such as Malignancy and Oncology.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Pathology (36.19%)
  • Surgery (33.44%)
  • Larynx (22.78%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2015-2021)?

  • Radiology (16.16%)
  • Radiation therapy (18.42%)
  • Head and neck cancer (16.16%)

In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:

His primary scientific interests are in Radiology, Radiation therapy, Head and neck cancer, Pathology and Internal medicine. The concepts of his Radiology study are interwoven with issues in NODAL, Primary tumor and Neck dissection. The study incorporates disciplines such as Occult, Lymph node, General surgery, Adenoid cystic carcinoma and Cervical lymph nodes in addition to Neck dissection.

Radiation therapy is a subfield of Surgery that he explores. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Clinical trial, Intensive care medicine and Head and neck. His work on Larynx expands to the thematically related Pathology.

Between 2015 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • COVID-19 pandemic: Effects and evidence-based recommendations for otolaryngology and head and neck surgery practice. (135 citations)
  • Cumulative cisplatin dose in concurrent chemoradiotherapy for head and neck cancer: A systematic review. (81 citations)
  • Treatment of late sequelae after radiotherapy for head and neck cancer (72 citations)

In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:

  • Cancer
  • Internal medicine
  • Surgery

Alfio Ferlito mainly investigates Surgery, Pathology, Oncology, Internal medicine and Head and neck cancer. Pathology is closely attributed to Positron emission tomography in his research. He combines subjects such as Lymph node, Head and neck, Apocrine, Myoepithelioma and Rheumatology with his study of Oncology.

His Lymph node research integrates issues from Oropharyngeal Carcinoma, Adenoid cystic carcinoma, Carcinoma and Lymph node metastasis. Cancer and Radiation therapy are inextricably linked to his Head and neck cancer research. His Radiation therapy research includes elements of Review article and Retrospective cohort study.
