BACKGROUND: Robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP) with extended lymphadenectomy (ePLND) is the gold standard for surgical treatment of prostate cancer (PCa). Recently, the en-bloc ePLND has been proposed but no studies reported on the standardi...
RATIONALE AND OBJECTIVES: This study aimed to construct a machine learning radiomics-based model using dynamic contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (DCE-MRI) images to evaluate non-sentinel lymph node (NSLN) metastasis in Chinese breast cance...

BACKGROUND: Early and accurate identification of lymphatic node metastasis (LNM) and lymphatic vascular space invasion (LVSI) for endometrial cancer (EC) patients is important for treatment design, but difficult on multi-parametric MRI (mpMRI) images...
BACKGROUND: Total marrow irradiation (TMI) and total marrow and lymphoid irradiation (TMLI) have the advantages. However, delineating target lesions according to TMI and TMLI plans is labor-intensive and time-consuming. In addition, although the deli...
PURPOSE: It is crucial to preoperatively diagnose lateral cervical lymph node (LN) metastases (LNMs) in papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC) patients. This study aims to develop deep-learning models for the automatic segmentation and classification of L...
BACKGROUND: Endoscopic full-thickness gastric resection (EFTGR) with regional lymph node dissection (LND) has been used for early gastric cancer (EGC) exceeding the indications for endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD). The extent of the dissected l...
INTRODUCTION: Extended pelvic lymph node dissection (ePLND) in men undergoing robot-assisted laparoscopic radical prostatectomy (RARP) is a widely used procedure. However, little is known about anatomical site-specific yields and subsequent metastati...
OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the value of an integrated model incorporating deep learning (DL), hand-crafted radiomics and clinical and US imaging features for diagnosing central lymph node metastasis (CLNM) in patients with papillary thyroid cancer (PTC).
