PURPOSE: Medical imaging can be used to estimate a patient's biological age, which may provide complementary information to clinicians compared to chronological age. In this study, we aimed to develop a method to estimate a patient's age based on the...
INTRODUCTION: B downward-shifting is a rare bronchial anomaly characterized by abnormal pulmonary arteries associated with downward displacement of B and complete fusion between the right upper and middle lobes.
BACKGROUND: The detection of epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) mutations in patients with non-small cell lung cancer is critical for tyrosine kinase inhibitor therapy. EGFR detection requires tissue samples, which are difficult to obtain in som...
Lung cancer is a serious disease responsible for millions of deaths every year. Early stages of lung cancer can be manifested in pulmonary lung nodules. To assist radiologists in reducing the number of overseen nodules and to increase the detection a...
BACKGROUND: Deformable Image Registration (DIR) is an essential technique required in many applications of radiation oncology. However, conventional DIR approaches typically take several minutes to register one pair of 3D CT images and the resulting ...
To investigate whether the combination scheme of deep learning score (DL-score) and radiomics can improve preoperative diagnosis in the presence of micropapillary/solid (MPP/SOL) patterns in lung adenocarcinoma (ADC). A retrospective cohort of 514 co...
AIM: To develop a deep-learning model using contrast-enhanced chest computed tomography (CT) images to predict programmed death-ligand 1 (PD-L1) expression in patients with non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC).
Protein mutation detection using liquid biopsy can be simply performed periodically, making it easy to detect the occurrence of newly emerging mutations rapidly. However, it has low diagnostic accuracy since there are more normal proteins than mutate...
To investigate the perioperative outcomes of patients who underwent robot-assisted thoracoscopic (RATS) segmentectomy for identifying the intersegmental plane (ISP) by improved modified inflation-deflation (MID) combined with near-infrared fluorescen...
