PURPOSE: Nuclear pleomorphic patterns are essential for Fuhrman grading of clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC). Manual observation of renal histopathologic slides may lead to subjective and inconsistent assessment between pathologists. An automat...
We investigate the viability of statistical relational machine learning algorithms for the task of identifying malignancy of renal masses using radiomics-based imaging features. Features characterizing the texture, signal intensity, and other relevan...
MOTIVATION: As a highly heterogeneous disease, the progression of tumor is not only achieved by unlimited growth of the tumor cells, but also supported, stimulated, and nurtured by the microenvironment around it. However, traditional qualitative and/...
