CT4CMS: Preoperative Computed Tomography-Based Consensus Molecular Subtyping Prediction in Colorectal Cancer Using Interpretable Deep Learning

Consensus molecular subtyping (CMS) defines the transcriptomic taxonomy of colorectal cancer (CRC) and guides precision therapy. Although current approaches can predict CMS from histopathology, they rely on surgical specimens, limiting their preoperative applicability. In this study, we developed a deep learning model to infer CMS directly from preoperative computed tomography (CT) scans, enabling...

Hospital AI and Robotics Adoption, Access Inequality, and County Mortality: A National Study Across 3,143 U.S. Counties

Hospital artificial intelligence (AI) and robotics are spreading unevenly across the United States, yet national evidence on how these technologies are associated with hospital performance and population health remains limited. This observational study linked the 2024 American Hospital Association Annual Survey, capturing calendar-year 2023 adoption across 6,166 hospitals, to CMS, CDC, and County ...
