Pediatric low-grade gliomas (pLGGs) exhibit heterogeneous prognoses and variable responses to treatment, leading to tumor progression and adverse outcomes in cases where complete resection is unachievable. Early prediction of treatment responsiveness...
Deep learning methods have been widely used for various glioma predictions. However, they are usually task-specific, segmentation-dependent and lack of interpretable biomarkers. How to accurately predict the glioma histological grade and molecular su...
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Timely identification of local failure after stereotactic radiotherapy for brain metastases allows for treatment modifications, potentially improving outcomes. While previous studies showed that adding radiomics or Deep Learni...

BackgroundEffective brain tumour therapy and better patient outcomes depend on early tumour diagnosis. Accurate diagnosis can be hampered by traditional imaging techniques' frequent struggles with low resolution and noise, especially in Low Dose CT s...
Brain tumors are among the most dangerous, due to their location in the organ that governs all life processes. Moreover, the high differentiation of these poses a challenge in diagnostics. Therefore, this study focused on the chemical differentiation...
Glioblastoma Multiforme (GBM), classified as a grade IV glioma by the World Health Organization (WHO), is a prevalent and notably aggressive form of brain tumor derived from glial cells. It stands as one of the most severe forms of primary brain canc...
We aimed to systematically review and meta-analyze the predictive value of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)-derived radiomics/end-to-end deep learning (DL) models in predicting glioma alpha thalassemia/mental retardation syndrome X-linked (ATRX) stat...

PURPOSE: We investigate the feasibility of using a biophysically guided approach for delineating the Clinical Target Volume (CTV) in Glioblastoma Multiforme (GBM) by evaluating its impact on the treatment outcomes, specifically Overall Survival (OS) ...
OBJECTIVE: Differentiating between brain metastasis (BM) and glioblastoma (GBM) preoperatively is challenging due to their similar imaging features on conventional brain MRI. This study aimed to enhance diagnostic accuracy through a machine learning ...
