OBJECTIVE: Early and accurate prediction of axillary lymph node metastasis (ALNM) is crucial in determining appropriate treatment strategies for patients with early-stage breast cancer. The aim of this study was to evaluate the efficacy of radiomic f...
PURPOSE: Computer vision and artificial intelligence (AI) offer the opportunity to rapidly and accurately interpret standardized x-rays. We trained and validated a machine learning tool that identified key reference points and determined glenoid retr...
The axillary lymph node status remains an important prognostic factor in breast cancer, and nodal staging using sentinel lymph node biopsy (SLNB) is routine. Randomized clinical trials provide evidence supporting de-escalation of axillary surgery and...
RATIONALE AND OBJECTIVES: The aim of this study was to evaluate the capability of an ultrasound (US)-based deep learning (DL) nomogram for predicting axillary lymph node (ALN) status after neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) in breast cancer patients and ...
BACKGROUND: Axillary lymph node dissection (ALND) is a standard procedure for early-stage breast cancer (BC) patients with three or more positive sentinel lymph nodes (SLNs). However, ALND can lead to significant postoperative complications without a...

BACKGROUND: The accuracy of traditional clinical methods for assessing the metastatic status of axillary lymph nodes (ALNs) is unsatisfactory. In this study, the authors propose the use of radiomic technology and three-dimensional (3D) visualization ...
RATIONALE AND OBJECTIVES: This study aims to explore the feasibility of the deep learning radiomics nomogram (DLRN) for predicting tumor status and axillary lymph node metastasis (ALNM) after neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) in patients with breast can...

BACKGROUND: Pathological axillary lymph node (pALN) burden is an important factor for treatment decision-making in clinical T1-T2 (cT1-T2) stage breast cancer. Preoperative assessment of the pALN burden and prognosis aids in the individualized select...
To investigate whether peritumoral edema (PE) could enhance deep learning radiomic (DLR) model in predicting axillary lymph node metastasis (ALNM) burden in breast cancer. Invasive breast cancer patients with preoperative MRI were retrospectively enr...
PURPOSE: In breast cancer (BC) patients with clinical axillary lymph node metastasis (cN+) undergoing neoadjuvant therapy (NAT), precise axillary lymph node (ALN) assessment dictates therapeutic strategy. There is a critical demand for a precise meth...
