Lymph node metastasis (LNM) detection can be automated using artificial intelligence (AI)-based diagnostic tools. Only limited studies have addressed this task for colorectal cancer (CRC). This study aimed to develop of a clinical-grade digital patho...
OBJECTIVES: This study aimed to investigate tumor heterogeneity of colorectal liver metastases (CRLM) and stratify the patients into different risk groups of prognoses following liver resection by applying an unsupervised radiomics machine-learning a...
OBJECTIVES: Accurate risk stratification of patients with stage II and III colorectal cancer (CRC) prior to treatment selection enables limited health resources to be efficiently allocated to patients who are likely to benefit from adjuvant chemother...
BACKGROUND & AIMS: The key step of the Global Leadership Initiative on Malnutrition (GLIM) is nutritional risk screening, while the most appropriate screening tool for colorectal cancer (CRC) patients is yet unknown. The GLIM diagnosis relies on weig...
Early identification of safe and efficacious disease targets is crucial to alleviating the tremendous cost of drug discovery projects. However, existing experimental methods for identifying new targets are generally labor-intensive and failure-prone....
