Pancreatic Diseases

Prognostic assessment capability of a five-gene signature in pancreatic cancer: a machine learning based-study.

BACKGROUND: A prognostic assessment method with good sensitivity and specificity plays an important role in the treatment of pancreatic cancer patients. Finding a way to evaluate the prognosis of pancreatic cancer is of great significance for the treatment of pancreatic cancer.

Evaluation of deep learning based implanted fiducial markers tracking in pancreatic cancer patients.

Real-time target position verification during pancreas stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) is important for the detection of unplanned tumour motions. Fast and accurate fiducial marker segmentation is a Requirement of real-time marker-based verification. Deep learning (DL) segmentation techniques are ideal because they don't require additional learning imaging or prior marker information (e...
