The suggestion that the systemic immune response in lymph nodes (LNs) conveys prognostic value for triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) patients has not previously been investigated in large cohorts. We used a deep learning (DL) framework to quantify...
OBJECTIVES: To develop an artificial intelligence (AI) system for predicting cervical lymph node metastasis (CLNM) preoperatively in patients with papillary thyroid cancer (PTC) based on CT images.
BACKGROUND: Identifying lymph node metastasis (LNM) relies mainly on indirect radiology. Current studies omitted the quantified associations with traits beyond cancer types, failing to provide generalisation performance across various tumour types.

BACKGROUND: In melanoma patients, surgical excision of the first draining lymph node, the sentinel lymph node (SLN), is a routine procedure to evaluate lymphogenic metastases. Metastasis detection by histopathological analysis assesses multiple tissu...
Histopathology is a crucial diagnostic tool in cancer and involves the analysis of gigapixel slides. Multiple instance learning (MIL) promises success in digital histopathology thanks to its ability to handle gigapixel slides and work with weak label...

OBJECTIVES: Lymph node metastasis (LNM) prediction for T1 colorectal cancer (CRC) is critical for determining the need for surgery after endoscopic resection because LNM occurs in 10%. We aimed to develop a novel artificial intelligence (AI) system u...
The objective of this study is to develop a radiomic signature constructed from deep learning features and a nomogram for prediction of axillary lymph node metastasis (ALNM) in breast cancer patients. Preoperative magnetic resonance imaging data from...
The treatment of lateral pelvic lymph node (LPLN) metastasis of rectal cancer has evolved because of technical difficulties from open surgery to laparoscopy and, recently, robot-assisted surgery. This study aimed to evaluate the technical feasibility...
OBJECTIVES: This study aimed to investigate whether a deep learning (DL) model based on preoperative MR images of primary tumors can predict lymph node metastasis (LNM) in patients with stage T1-2 rectal cancer.
