Risk factors and development of machine learning diagnostic models for lateral lymph node metastasis in rectal cancer: multicentre study.

Journal: BJS open
PMID: 39016280

Abstract

BACKGROUND: The diagnostic criteria for lateral lymph node metastasis in rectal cancer have not been established. This research aimed to investigate the risk factors for lateral lymph node metastasis and develop machine learning models combining these risk factors to improve the diagnostic performance of standard imaging.
