This aim of this research was to explore the evaluation and prediction value of diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) under artificial intelligence algorithm in the vomiting management and chemotherapy of early lung cancer under comfort care. 118 patients...
Background A deep learning (DL) model to identify lung cancer screening candidates based on their chest radiographs requires external validation with a recent real-world non-U.S. sample. Purpose To validate the DL model and identify added benefits to...
The convolutional neural network (CNN) has become a powerful tool in machine learning (ML) that is used to solve complex problems such as image recognition, natural language processing, and video analysis. Notably, the idea of exploring convolutional...
RATIONALE AND OBJECTIVES: Computed tomography (CT) is preferred for evaluating solitary pulmonary nodules (SPNs) but access or availability may be lacking, in addition, overlapping anatomy can hinder detection of SPNs on chest radiographs. We develop...

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: During lung cancer radiotherapy, the position of infrared reflective objects on the chest can be recorded to estimate the tumor location. However, radiotherapy systems have a latency inherent to robot control limitations tha...
BACKGROUND: The development of an advanced robotic platform in 2014 led to increased adoption of minimally invasive (MI) approaches in thoracic surgery. Due to dataset reporting lag, a comprehensive assessment of trends in thoracic approaches has not...
PURPOSE: To assess the value of novel deep learning (DL) scores combined with complementary lung imaging reporting and data system 1.1 (cLung-RADS 1.1) in managing the risk stratification of ground-glass nodules (GGNs) and therefore improving the eff...
