BACKGROUND: Medulloblastoma (MB) is the pediatric population's most frequent malignant intracranial lesions. Prognostication plays a crucial role in optimizing treatment strategy in the MB setting. Several studies have developed ML-based models to pr...
Medulloblastoma is a malignant neuroepithelial tumor of the central nervous system. Accurate prediction of prognosis is essential for therapeutic decisions in medulloblastoma patients. We analyzed data from 2,322 medulloblastoma patients using the SE...
RATIONALE AND OBJECTIVES: Medulloblastoma (MB) and Ependymoma (EM) in children, share similarities in age group, tumor location, and clinical presentation. Distinguishing between them through clinical diagnosis is challenging. This study aims to expl...
PURPOSE: We aimed to evaluate the effect of deep learning-based reconstruction (DLR) on high-spatial-resolution three-dimensional T2-weighted fast asymmetric spin-echo (HR-3D T2-FASE) imaging in the preoperative evaluation of cerebellopontine angle (...

BACKGROUND: Hemangioblastoma (HB) is a highly vascularized tumor most commonly occurring in the posterior cranial fossa, requiring accurate preoperative diagnosis to avoid accidental intraoperative hemorrhage and even death.
OBJECTIVES: To develop a dynamic nomogram containing radiomics signature and clinical features for estimating the overall survival (OS) of patients with medulloblastoma (MB) and design an automatic image segmentation model to reduce labor and time co...
BACKGROUND: Longitudinal measurement of tumor burden with magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is an essential component of response assessment in pediatric brain tumors. We developed a fully automated pipeline for the segmentation of tumors in pediatric...
To determine if apparent diffusion coefficients (ADC) can discriminate between posterior fossa brain tumours on a multicentre basis. A total of 124 paediatric patients with posterior fossa tumours (including 55 Medulloblastomas, 36 Pilocytic Astrocyt...
Approximately 30% of medulloblastoma (MB) patients exhibit metastasis at initial diagnosis, which often leads to a poor prognosis. Here, by using univariate Cox regression analysis, two machine learning methods (Lasso-penalized Cox regression and ran...
