Abstract

BACKGROUND: Trophoblast cell surface antigen 2 (TROP2) is a promising target for various cancers, including breast cancer. The development of noninvasive techniques for assessing TROP2 expression in tumors holds considerable importance. This study aims to explore the efficacy of machine learning models based on multi-b-value diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) using the stretched-exponential model (SEM) for predicting TROP2 expression in breast cancer in nude mouse models.
