BACKGROUND: Accurate lymph node staging is important for the diagnosis and treatment of patients with bladder cancer. We aimed to develop a lymph node metastases diagnostic model (LNMDM) on whole slide images and to assess the clinical effect of an a...
BACKGROUND: Pelvic lymph node dissection (PLND) is the gold standard for diagnosis of lymph node involvement (LNI) in patients with prostate cancer. The Roach formula, Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center (MSKCC) calculator, and Briganti 2012 nomog...

BACKGROUND: Although the surgical treatment strategy for rectal cancer (RC) is usually based on the preoperative diagnosis of lymph node metastasis (LNM), the accurate diagnosis of LNM has been a clinical challenge. In this study, we developed machin...
OBJECTIVE: Central lymph node metastasis (CLNM) is a predictor of poor prognosis for papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC) patients. The options for surgeon operation or follow-up depend on the state of CLNM while accurate prediction is a challenge for r...
OBJECTIVE: The blood flow in lymph nodes reflects important pathological features. However, most intelligent diagnosis based on contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) video focuses only on CEUS images, ignoring the process of extracting blood flow infor...
BACKGROUND: Few highly accurate tests can diagnose central lymph node metastasis (CLNM) of papillary thyroid cancer (PTC). Genetic sequencing of tumor tissue has allowed the targeting of certain genetic variants for personalized cancer therapy develo...

Screening of lymph node metastases in colorectal cancer (CRC) can be a cumbersome task, but it is amenable to artificial intelligence (AI)-assisted diagnostic solution. Here, we propose a deep learning-based workflow for the evaluation of CRC lymph n...
BACKGROUND: In the West, patients with cervical lymph node metastasis of resectable esophageal cancer at diagnosis are generally precluded from curative treatment. This study prospectively explored the safety and feasibility of neoadjuvant chemoradio...
BACKGROUND: Accurate diagnosis of N2 lymph node status of the resectable stage I-II non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) before surgery is crucial, while there is lack of corresponding method clinically.
