Abstract
PURPOSE: Thyroid nodules are common in the general population, and assessing their malignancy risk is the initial step in care. Surgical exploration remains the sole definitive option for indeterminate nodules. Extensive database access is crucial for improving this initial assessment. Our objective was to develop an automated process using convolutional neural networks (CNNs) to extract and structure biomedical insights from electronic health reports (EHRs) in a large thyroid pathology cohort.
