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.
OBJECTIVES: Lymph node (LN) metastasis is a common cause of recurrence in oral cancer; however, the accuracy of distinguishing positive and negative LNs is not ideal. Here, we aimed to develop a deep learning model that can identify, locate, and dist...
BACKGROUND: It is difficult to predict normal-sized lymph node metastasis (LNM) in cervical cancer clinically. We aimed to investigate the feasibility of using deep learning (DL) nomogram based on readout segmentation of long variable echo-trains dif...
Lymphovascular invasion, specifically lymph-blood vessel invasion (LBVI), is a risk factor for metastases in breast invasive ductal carcinoma (IDC) and is routinely screened using hematoxylin-eosin histopathological images. However, routine reports o...
OBJECTIVES: To develop and validate a deep learning (DL) model based on quantitative analysis of contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) images that predicts early recurrence (ER) after thermal ablation (TA) of colorectal cancer liver metastasis (CRLM).

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: Whole slide image (WSI) classification and lesion localization within giga-pixel slide are challenging tasks in computational pathology that requires context-aware representations of histological features to adequately infer...
BACKGROUND: Neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) can downstage tumors and axillary lymph nodes in breast cancer (BC) patients. However, tumors and axillary response to NAC are not parallel and vary among patients. This study aims to explore the feasibility...
RATIONALE AND OBJECTIVES: Accurate identification of axillary lymph node (ALN) status in breast cancer patients is important for determining treatment options and avoiding axillary overtreatments. Our study aims to comprehensively compare the perform...
