Preoperative DBT-based radiomics for predicting axillary lymph node metastasis in breast cancer: a multi-center study.

BMC medical imaging
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...

Deep Learning Model of Primary Tumor and Metastatic Cervical Lymph Nodes From CT for Outcome Predictions in Oropharyngeal Cancer.

JAMA network open
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...

Development and validation of machine learning models for predicting no. 253 lymph node metastasis in left-sided colorectal cancer using clinical and CT-based radiomic features.

Cancer imaging : the official publication of the International Cancer Imaging Society
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...

Deep learning for malignant lymph node segmentation and detection: a review.

Frontiers in immunology
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...

Intelligent Diagnosis of Cervical Lymph Node Metastasis Using a CNN Model.

Journal of dental research
Lymph node (LN) metastasis is a prevalent cause of recurrence in oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC). However, accurately identifying metastatic LNs (LNs+) remains challenging. This prospective clinical study aims to test the effectiveness of our con...

Preoperative lymph node metastasis risk assessment in invasive micropapillary carcinoma of the breast: development of a machine learning-based predictive model with a web-based calculator.

World journal of surgical oncology
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...

A comparative analysis of three graph neural network models for predicting axillary lymph node metastasis in early-stage breast cancer.

Scientific reports
The presence of axillary lymph node metastasis (ALNM) in breast cancer patients is an important factor in deciding whether to have axillary surgery or pursue alternative treatments. Based on axillary ultrasound (US) and histopathologic data, three gr...

Comparison of Predictive Performance of Three Lymph Node Staging Systems in Colorectal Signet Ring Cell Carcinoma Based on Machine Learning Model.

Journal of visualized experiments : JoVE
Lymph node status is a critical prognostic predictor for patients; however, the prognosis of colorectal signet-ring cell carcinoma (SRCC) has garnered limited attention. This study investigates the prognostic predictive capacity of the log odds of po...

Enhancing Specificity in Predicting Axillary Lymph Node Metastasis in Breast Cancer through an Interpretable Machine Learning Model with CEM and Ultrasound Integration.

Technology in cancer research & treatment
IntroductionThe study aims to evaluate the performance of an interpretable machine learning model in predicting preoperative axillary lymph node metastasis using primary breast cancer and lymph node features derived from contrast-enhanced mammography...
