The diagnosis of preoperative lymph node (LN) metastasis is crucial to evaluate possible therapy options for T1 lung adenocarcinoma patients. Radiologists preoperatively diagnose LN metastasis by evaluating signs related to LN metastasis, like spicul...
BACKGROUND: Artificial intelligence (AI) is increasingly being used in medical imaging analysis. We aimed to evaluate the diagnostic accuracy of AI models used for detection of lymph node metastasis on pre-operative staging imaging for colorectal can...

PURPOSE: The identification of pathological mediastinal lymph nodes is an important step in the staging of lung cancer, with the presence of metastases significantly affecting survival rates. Nodes are currently identified by a physician, but this pr...
PURPOSE: To study and investigate the synergistic benefit of incorporating both conventional handcrafted and learning-based features in disease identification across a wide range of clinical setups.
OBJECTIVE: Over the past years, the application of artificial intelligence (AI) in medicine has increased rapidly, especially in diagnostics, and in the near future, the role of AI in medicine will become progressively more important. In this study, ...
The purpose of this study was to evaluate an artificial intelligence (AI) system for the classification of axillary lymph nodes on ultrasound compared to radiologists. Ultrasound images of 317 axillary lymph nodes from patients referred for ultrasoun...
When doctors use contrast-enhanced computed tomography (CECT) images to predict the metastasis of axillary lymph nodes (ALN) for breast cancer patients, the prediction performance could be degraded by subjective factors such as experience, psychologi...
