Abstract

OBJECTIVES: Patients with T4 obstructive colorectal cancer (OCC) have a high mortality rate. Therefore, an accurate distinction between T4 and T1-T3 (NT4) in OCC is an important part of preoperative evaluation, especially in the emergency setting. This paper introduces three models of radiomics, deep learning, and deep learning-based radiomics to identify T4 OCC.
