Serum Fusion Transcripts to Assess the Risk of Hepatocellular Carcinoma and the Impact of Cancer Treatment through Machine Learning.

Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is one of the most fatal malignancies. Early diagnosis of HCC is crucial in reducing the risk for mortality. This study analyzed a panel of nine fusion transcripts in serum samples from 61 patients with HCC and 75 patients with non-HCC conditions, using TaqMan real-time quantitative RT-PCR. Seven of the nine fusions frequently detected in patients with HCC included: ...

A Deep Learning-Based Assessment Pipeline for Intraepithelial and Stromal Tumor-Infiltrating Lymphocytes in High-Grade Serous Ovarian Carcinoma.

Tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (TILs) are associated with improved survival in patients with epithelial ovarian cancer. However, TIL evaluation has not been used in routine clinical practice because of reproducibility issues. The current study developed two convolutional neural network models to detect TILs and to determine their spatial location in whole slide images, and established a spatial as...

Machine learning-based analysis of Ga-PSMA-11 PET/CT images for estimation of prostate tumor grade.

Early diagnosis of prostate cancer, the most common malignancy in men, can improve patient outcomes. Since the tissue sampling procedures are invasive...
