Abstract

PURPOSE: Medical imaging data of lung cancer in different stages contain a large amount of time information related to its evolution (emergence, development, or extinction). We try to explore the evolution process of lung images in time dimension to improve the prediction of lung cancer survival by using longitudinal CT images and clinical data jointly.
