Radiomics-based MRI models for predicting breast cancer axillary lymph node involvement in comparison with Node-RADS: a proof-of-concept study.

European radiology experimental
BACKGROUND: Detection of axillary lymph node (LN) involvement is essential for staging breast cancer and optimizing treatment. This proof-of-concept two-center study explored the feasibility of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) radiomics-based machine...

Ultrasound-based radiomics model for predicting axillary lymph node metastasis of breast cancer.

BMC medical imaging
OBJECTIVE: This study aims to explore the impact of different ROI delineation strategies on the axillary lymph nodes metastasis (ALNM) prediction model by analyzing two-dimensional ultrasound images of lymph nodes. In addition, we integrated clinical...

Axillary lymph node dissection offers no survival benefit in breast cancer patients with sentinel lymph node micrometastases after neoadjuvant therapy.

Clinical and experimental medicine
The role of axillary lymph node dissection (ALND) in breast cancer patients with sentinel lymph node (SLN) micrometastases, particularly after neoadjuvant therapy, remains debated. The present study aimed to assess whether adding ALND provides a surv...

Deep learning-powered multi-parametric ultrasound for classifying metastatic versus reactive axillary lymph nodes.

Breast cancer research : BCR
PURPOSE: To propose a multi-parametric ultrasound imaging-based deep learning method for accurately classifying metastatic and non-metastatic axillary lymph nodes in breast cancer patients.

An explainable predictive machine learning model for axillary lymph node metastasis in breast cancer based on multimodal data: A retrospective single-center study.

Journal of translational medicine
OBJECTIVE: To develop explainable machine learning models that integrate multimodal imaging and pathological biomarkers to predict axillary lymph node metastasis (ALNM) in breast cancer patients and assess their clinical utility.

Ultrasound derived deep learning features for predicting axillary lymph node metastasis in breast cancer using graph convolutional networks in a multicenter study.

Scientific reports
The purpose of this study was to create and validate an ultrasound-based graph convolutional network (US-based GCN) model for the prediction of axillary lymph node metastasis (ALNM) in patients with breast cancer. A total of 820 eligible patients wit...

Establishment of an interpretable MRI radiomics-based machine learning model capable of predicting axillary lymph node metastasis in invasive breast cancer.

Scientific reports
This study sought to develop a radiomics model capable of predicting axillary lymph node metastasis (ALNM) in patients with invasive breast cancer (IBC) based on dual-sequence magnetic resonance imaging(MRI) of diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) and dy...

Prediction of axillary lymph node metastasis in triple negative breast cancer using MRI radiomics and clinical features.

Scientific reports
To develop and validate a machine learning-based prediction model to predict axillary lymph node (ALN) metastasis in triple negative breast cancer (TNBC) patients using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and clinical characteristics. This retrospective...

Preoperative DBT-based radiomics for predicting axillary lymph node metastasis in breast cancer: a multi-center study.

BMC medical imaging
BACKGROUND: In the prognosis of breast cancer, the status of axillary lymph nodes (ALN) is critically important. While traditional axillary lymph node dissection (ALND) provides comprehensive information, it is associated with high risks. Sentinel ly...

A comparative analysis of three graph neural network models for predicting axillary lymph node metastasis in early-stage breast cancer.

Scientific reports
The presence of axillary lymph node metastasis (ALNM) in breast cancer patients is an important factor in deciding whether to have axillary surgery or pursue alternative treatments. Based on axillary ultrasound (US) and histopathologic data, three gr...
