Abstract

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Distant metastasis in bladder cancer is linked to poor prognosis and significant mortality. Machine learning (ML), a key area of artificial intelligence, has shown promise in the diagnosis, staging, and treatment of bladder cancer. This study aimed to employ various ML techniques to predict distant metastasis in patients with bladder cancer.
