Abstract

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Recurrence is the main risk for high-grade serous ovarian cancer (HGSOC) and few prognostic biomarkers were reported. In this study, we proposed a novel deep learning (DL) method to extract prognostic biomarkers from preoperative computed tomography (CT) images, aiming at providing a non-invasive recurrence prediction model in HGSOC.
