BACKGROUND: Endobronchial ultrasound (EBUS) is a widely used imaging modality for evaluating thoracic lymph nodes (LNs), particularly in the staging of lung cancer. Artificial intelligence (AI)-assisted EBUS has emerged as a promising tool to enhance...
To develop and validate a machine learning-based prediction model to predict axillary lymph node (ALN) metastasis in triple negative breast cancer (TNBC) patients using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and clinical characteristics. This retrospective...
The rapid advancements in spatially resolved transcriptomics (SRT) enable the characterization of gene expressions while preserving spatial information. However, high dropout rates and noise hinder accurate spatial domain identification for understan...
INTRODUCTION: Early and accurate diagnosis of tuberculosis (TB) is central to ensuring the proper treatment and curbing the transmission of the disease. Despite the significant burden, the diagnosis of peripheral lymph node(LN)TB, the most prevalent ...
BACKGROUND: In the prognosis of breast cancer, the status of axillary lymph nodes (ALN) is critically important. While traditional axillary lymph node dissection (ALND) provides comprehensive information, it is associated with high risks. Sentinel ly...
BACKGROUND: The early prediction of lymph node positivity (LN+) after neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) is crucial for optimizing individualized treatment strategies. This study aimed to integrate radiomic features and clinical biomarkers through machin...
IMPORTANCE: Primary tumor (PT) and metastatic cervical lymph node (LN) characteristics are highly associated with oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma (OPSCC) prognosis. Currently, there is a lack of studies to combine imaging characteristics of bot...

BACKGROUND: The appropriate ligation level of the inferior mesenteric artery (IMA) in left-sided colorectal cancer (CRC) surgery is debated, with metastasis in No. 253 lymph node (No. 253 LN) being a key determining factor. This study aimed to develo...
Radiation therapy remains a cornerstone in the treatment of cancer, with the delineation of Organs at Risk (OARs), tumors, and malignant lymph nodes playing a critical role in the planning process. However, the manual segmentation of these anatomical...
BACKGROUND: Invasive micropapillary carcinoma (IMPC) is a rare subtype of breast cancer characterized by a high risk of lymph node metastasis (LNM). The study aimed to identify predictors of LNM and to develop a machine learning (ML)-based risk predi...
