Latest AI and machine learning research in oncology/hematology for healthcare professionals.
To develop a deep learning system based on 3D convolutional neural networks (CNNs), and to automatically predict EGFR-mutant pulmonary adenocarcinoma in CT images. A dataset of 579 nodules with EGFR mutation status labels of mutant (Mut) or wild-type (WT) was retrospectively analyzed. A deep learning system, namely 3D DenseNets, was developed to process 3D patches of nodules from CT data, and lear...
With deep convolutional neural networks and fiber optic Raman spectroscopy, this study presents a novel classification method that discriminates tongue squamous cell carcinoma (TSCC) from non-tumorous tissue. To achieve this purpose, 24 tissues spectral data were first collected from 12 patients who had undergone a surgical resection due to the tongue squamous cell carcinomas. Then 6 blocks with e...
BACKGROUND AND AIMS: Cancer invasion depth is a critical factor affecting the choice of treatment in patients with superficial squamous cell carcinoma...
We use Raman microscopic images with high spatial and spectral resolution to investigate differences between human follicular thyroid (Nthy-ori 3-1) a...
BACKGROUND: Approximately 10%-15% of patients with breast cancer die of cancer metastasis or recurrence, and early diagnosis of it can improve prognos...
Background Mammographic density improves the accuracy of breast cancer risk models. However, the use of breast density is limited by subjective assess...
The Cox proportional hazards model commonly used to evaluate prognostic variables in survival of cancer patients may be too simplistic to properly pre...
Irinotecan (CPT-11) is a drug used against a wide variety of tumors, which can cause severe toxicity, possibly leading to the delay or suspension of t...
PURPOSE: To predict the neoadjuvant chemoradiation therapy (CRT) response in patients with locally advanced rectal cancer (LARC) using radiomics and d...
Recent analysis identified distinct genomic subtypes of lower-grade glioma tumors which are associated with shape features. In this study, we propose ...
The diagnosis of pancreatic cystic lesions remains challenging. This study aimed to investigate the diagnostic ability of carcinoembryonic antigen (CE...
IMPORTANCE: Biological therapies have revolutionized inflammatory bowel disease management, but many patients do not respond to biological monotherapy...
Biological tumour volume (GTV) delineation on F-FDG PET acquired during induction chemotherapy (ICT) is challenging due to the reduced metabolic uptak...
BACKGROUND: Detecting and segmenting brain metastases is a tedious and time-consuming task for many radiologists, particularly with the growing use of...
Small nucleolar RNAs (snoRNAs) are a new type of functional small RNAs involved in the chemical modifications of rRNAs, tRNAs, and small nuclear RNAs....
Machine learning (ML) is the ability of computers to learn from data autonomously. It is a core branch of artificial intelligence (AI), which is defin...
PURPOSE: We address the automatic segmentation of healthy and cancerous liver tissues (parenchyma, active and necrotic parts of hepatocellular carcino...
To investigate the efficacy, safety, and associated mechanisms of injected ozonated saline in the treatment of VX2 tumors. A total of 90 rabbits bea...
Automatic and precise segmentation and classification of tumor area in medical images is still a challenging task in medical research. Most of the con...
Rapid classification of tumors that are detected in the medical images is of great importance in the early diagnosis of the disease. In this paper, a ...
