PURPOSE: To investigate the use and efficiency of 3-D deep learning, fully convolutional networks (DFCN) for simultaneous tumor cosegmentation on dual-modality nonsmall cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and positron emission tomography (PET)-computed tomograp...

PURPOSE: To design a deep learning algorithm that automatically delineates lung tumors seen on weekly magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scans acquired during radiotherapy and facilitates the analysis of geometric tumor changes.
INTRODUCTION/BACKGROUND: Many patients with early stage non-small-cell lung cancer (ES-NSCLC) undergoing stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) develop metastases, which is associated with poor outcomes. We sought to identify factors predictive o...
In this paper, we propose a new Internet of Things (IoT) based predictive modelling by using fuzzy cluster based augmentation and classification for predicting the lung cancer disease through continuous monitoring and also to improve the healthcare b...
PURPOSE: This study aimed to evaluate the feasibility of using a single-institution, knowledge-based planning (KBP) model as a dosimetric plan quality control (QC) for multi-institutional clinical trials. The efficacy of this QC tool was retrospectiv...

OBJECTIVE: We conducted a phase I trial of neoadjuvant nivolumab, a monoclonal antibody to the programmed cell death protein 1 checkpoint receptor, in patients with resectable non-small cell lung cancer. We analyzed perioperative outcomes to assess t...
BACKGROUND: In transplant recipients, due to the use of immunosuppressive therapy, it is occasionally difficult to distinguish between an infection and malignancy, especially in the case of a lung lesion. Here, we report a case of isolated pulmonary ...
Existing deep-learning-based pulmonary nodule classification models usually use images and benign-malignant labels as inputs for training. Image attributes of the nodules, as human-nameable high-level semantic labels, are rarely used to build a convo...
BACKGROUND: Non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients often demonstrate varying clinical courses and outcomes, even within the same tumor stage. This study explores deep learning applications in medical imaging allowing for the automated quantifica...
The level of PD-L1 expression in immunohistochemistry (IHC) assays is a key biomarker for the identification of Non-Small-Cell-Lung-Cancer (NSCLC) patients that may respond to anti PD-1/PD-L1 treatments. The quantification of PD-L1 expression current...
