Lung Cancer

Deep Learning Model for Predicting Immunotherapy Response in Advanced Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer.

IMPORTANCE: Only a small fraction of patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) respond to immune checkpoint inhibitor (ICI) treatment. For optimal personalized NSCLC care, it is imperative to identify patients who are most likely to benefit from immunotherapy.

Augmented Intelligence for Multimodal Virtual Biopsy in Breast Cancer Using Generative Artificial Intelligence

Full-Field Digital Mammography (FFDM) is the primary imaging modality for routine breast cancer screening; however, its effectiveness is limited in patients with dense breast tissue or fibrocystic conditions.
