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...
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...

Papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC) is a common endocrine malignancy with a generally favorable prognosis, but lymph node metastasis (LNM) complicates treatment and increases recurrence risk. Current preoperative methods like neck ultrasound often miss...
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...
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...

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...
BACKGROUND: Deep learning(DL) models can improve significantly discrimination of lymph node metastasis(LNM) of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma(PDAC), but have not been systematically assessed.
