PURPOSE: Neuroblastoma (NB) is a childhood malignancy with a poor prognosis and a propensity for distant metastasis (DM). We aimed to establish machine learning (ML) based model to accurately predict risk of DM and prognosis of NB patients with DM.
PURPOSE: Sex classification is a major benchmark of previous work in learning on the structural connectome, a naturally occurring brain graph that has proven useful for studying cognitive function and impairment. While graph neural networks (GNNs), s...
BACKGROUND: Amebiasis represents a significant global health concern. This is especially evident in developing countries, where infections are more common. The primary diagnostic method in laboratories involves the microscopy of stool samples. Howeve...
BACKGROUND: Minimizing radiation exposure is crucial in monitoring adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS). Generative adversarial networks (GANs) have emerged as valuable tools being able to generate high-quality synthetic images. This study explores ...
BACKGROUND: Identifying independent risk factors and implementing high-quality assessment tools for early detection of patients at high risk of central venous access device (CVAD)-related thrombosis (CRT) plays a critical role in delivering timely pr...

INTRODUCTION: Unsupervised feature learning methods inspired by natural language processing (NLP) models are capable of constructing patient-specific features from longitudinal Electronic Health Records (EHR).
This study developed a predictive model using deep learning (DL) and natural language processing (NLP) to identify emergency cases in pediatric emergency departments. It analyzed 87,759 pediatric cases from a South Korean tertiary hospital (2012-2021...
Deep learning-based tractography implicitly learns anatomical prior knowledge that is required to resolve ambiguities inherent in traditional streamline tractography. TractSeg is a particularly widely used example of such an approach. Even though it ...
BACKGROUND: Hydronephrosis developing at the ureteropelvic junction due to obstruction poses clinical challenges as it has the potential to cause renal damage.
With the emergence of numerous classifications, surgical treatment for adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS) can be guided more effectively. However, surgical decision-making and optimal strategies still lack standardization and personalized customiz...
