A knowledge-enhanced interpretable network for early recurrence prediction of hepatocellular carcinoma via multi-phase CT imaging.

BACKGROUND: Predicting early recurrence (ER) of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) accurately can guide treatment decisions and further enhance survival. Computed tomography (CT) imaging, analyzed by deep learning (DL) models combining domain knowledge, has been employed for the prediction. However, these DL models utilized late fusion, restricting the interaction between domain knowledge and images d...

Deep Learning for Histopathological Assessment of Esophageal Adenocarcinoma Precursor Lesions.

Histopathological assessment of esophageal biopsies is a key part in the management of patients with Barrett esophagus (BE) but prone to observer variability and reliable diagnostic methods are needed. Artificial intelligence (AI) is emerging as a powerful tool for aided diagnosis but often relies on abstract test and validation sets while real-world behavior is unknown. In this study, we develope...
