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...
Accurate preoperative diagnosis of papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC) histological subtypes and lymph node metastasis is essential for formulating personalized treatment strategies. However, their preoperative diagnosis is challenged by the limited re...
PURPOSE: Lymph node metastasis (LNM) significantly affects prognosis and treatment strategies in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Current diagnostic methods, including imaging and histopathology, have limited sensitivity and specificity. This stud...
BACKGROUND: Accurate preoperative evaluation of cT1N0M0 papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC) is essential for guiding appropriate treatment strategies. Although ultrasound is widely used for clinical staging, it has limitations in detecting lymph node m...
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...

Prostate cancer (PCa) requires improved diagnostic strategies beyond conventional imaging. This review aimed to evaluate the role of prostate-specific membrane antigen positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PSMA PET/CT) in diagnosing advan...
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...
