Abstract
BACKGROUND: Neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) can downstage tumors and axillary lymph nodes in breast cancer (BC) patients. However, tumors and axillary response to NAC are not parallel and vary among patients. This study aims to explore the feasibility of deep learning radiomics nomogram (DLRN) for independently predicting the status of tumors and lymph node metastasis (LNM) after NAC.
