Cancer classification based on gene expression using neural networks.

Genetics and molecular research : GMR
Based on gene expression, we have classified 53 colon cancer patients with UICC II into two groups: relapse and no relapse. Samples were taken from each patient, and gene information was extracted. Of the 53 samples examined, 500 genes were considere...

Novel structural descriptors for automated colon cancer detection and grading.

Computer methods and programs in biomedicine
The histopathological examination of tissue specimens is necessary for the diagnosis and grading of colon cancer. However, the process is subjective and leads to significant inter/intra observer variation in diagnosis as it mainly relies on the visua...

Natural language processing as an alternative to manual reporting of colonoscopy quality metrics.

Gastrointestinal endoscopy
BACKGROUND AND AIMS: The adenoma detection rate (ADR) is a quality metric tied to interval colon cancer occurrence. However, manual extraction of data to calculate and track the ADR in clinical practice is labor-intensive. To overcome this difficulty...

Automated colon cancer detection using hybrid of novel geometric features and some traditional features.

Computers in biology and medicine
Automatic classification of colon into normal and malignant classes is complex due to numerous factors including similar colors in different biological constituents of histopathological imagery. Therefore, such techniques, which exploit the textural ...

Robotic right colectomy with intracorporeal anastomosis compared with laparoscopic right colectomy with extracorporeal and intracorporeal anastomosis: a retrospective multicentre study.

Surgical endoscopy
BACKGROUND: Growing evidence suggests that the intracorporeal fashioning of an anastomosis after a laparoscopic right colectomy may offer several advantages. However, due to the difficulty of the intracorporeal technique, laparoscopic extracorporeal ...

Robotic left colon cancer resection: a dual docking technique that maximizes splenic flexure mobilization.

Surgical endoscopy
BACKGROUND: Techniques for robotic resection of the left colon are not well defined and have not been widely adopted due to limited range of motion of the robotic arms. We have developed a dual docking technique for both the splenic flexure and the p...

Analyzing factors influencing hospitalization costs for five common cancers in China using neural network models.

Journal of medical economics
BACKGROUND: Malignant tumors are a major global health crisis, causing 25% of deaths in China, with lung, liver, thyroid, breast, and colon cancers being the most common. Understanding the factors influencing hospitalization costs for these cancers i...

Deep Learning and Radiomic Signatures Associated with Tumor Immune Heterogeneity Predict Microvascular Invasion in Colon Cancer.

Academic radiology
RATIONALE AND OBJECTIVES: This study aims to develop and validate a deep learning radiomics signature (DLRS) that integrates radiomics and deep learning features for the non-invasive prediction of microvascular invasion (MVI) in patients with colon c...

Weakly-supervised semantic segmentation in histology images using contrastive learning and self-training.

Computers in biology and medicine
This paper presents a novel method for weakly-supervised semantic segmentation (WSSS) of histology images, where only global image-level labels are employed. We leverage an existing weakly-supervised object localization (WSOL) method to generate clas...
