Immune cells are pivotal components in the tumor microenvironment (TME), which can interact with tumor cells and significantly influence cancer progression and therapeutic outcomes. Therefore, classifying cancer patients based on the status of immune...
BACKGROUND/AIMS: Inaccurate prediction of lymph node metastasis (LNM) may lead to unnecessary surgery following endoscopic resection of T1 colorectal cancer (CRC). We aimed to validate the usefulness of artificial intelligence (AI) models for predict...
"PolynetDWTCADx" is a sophisticated hybrid model that was developed to identify and distinguish colorectal cancer. In this study, the CKHK-22 dataset, comprising 24 classes, served as the introduction. The proposed method, which combines CNNs, DWTs, ...
Colorectal cancer (CRC) is a form of cancer that impacts both the rectum and colon. Typically, it begins with a small abnormal growth known as a polyp, which can either be non-cancerous or cancerous. Therefore, early detection of colorectal cancer as...
Accurate polyp segmentation is crucial for early diagnosis and treatment of colorectal cancer. This is a challenging task for three main reasons: (i) the problem of model overfitting and weak generalization due to the multi-center distribution of dat...
BACKGROUND: Artificial intelligence (AI) has significantly impacted medical imaging, particularly in gastrointestinal endoscopy. Computer-aided detection and diagnosis systems (CADe and CADx) are thought to enhance the quality of colonoscopy procedur...
Tumour content plays a pivotal role in directing the bioinformatic analysis of molecular profiles such as copy number variation (CNV). In clinical application, tumour purity estimation (TPE) is achieved either through visual pathological review [conv...

BACKGROUND: To verify overall survival predictions made with residual convolutional neural network-determined morphological response (ResNet-MR) in patients with unresectable synchronous liver-only metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC) treated with bev...
BACKGROUND: Inflammation-related biomarkers, such as systemic inflammation score (SIS) and neutrophil-lymphocyte ratio (NLR), are associated with colorectal cancer prognosis. However, the combined role of SIS, NLR, and clinicopathological factors in ...
