Abstract

OBJECTIVES: The prediction of primary treatment failure (PTF) is necessary for patients with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) since it serves as a prominent means for improving front-line outcomes. Using interim F-fluoro-2-deoxyglucose ([F]FDG) positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT) imaging data, we aimed to construct multimodal deep learning (MDL) models to predict possible PTF in low-risk DLBCL.
