Abstract

PURPOSE: We want to develop a model for predicting lymph node status based on positron emission computed tomography (PET) images of untreated ovarian cancer patients. We use the feature map formed by wavelet transform and the parameters obtained by image segmentation to build the model. The model is expected to help clinicians and provide additional information about what to do with first-visit patients.
