BACKGROUND: Accurate and standardized descriptions of organs at risk (OARs) are essential in radiation therapy for treatment planning and evaluation. Traditionally, physicians have contoured patient images manually, which, is time-consuming and subje...
Digital care management programs can reduce health care costs and improve quality of care. However, it is unclear how to target patients who are most likely to benefit from these programs ex ante, a shortcoming of current "risk score"-based approache...
Ultrasound guidance is not in widespread use in prostate cancer radiotherapy workflows. This can be partially attributed to the need for image interpretation by a trained operator during ultrasound image acquisition. In this work, a one-class regress...
PURPOSE: Our study assessed the ability F-fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) positron emission tomography (PET)/computed tomography (CT) radiomics to differentiate breast carcinoma from breast lymphoma using machine-learning approach.

BACKGROUND: Health-related quality of life (HRQoL) and well-being refer to the positive, subjective state that is contrary to illness. HRQoL instruments include some common questionnaires, which may often be understood differently depending on the le...
OBJECTIVE: Osteoporosis is hard to detect before it manifests symptoms and complications. In this study, we evaluated machine learning models for identifying individuals with abnormal bone mineral density (BMD) through an analysis of spine X-ray feat...
In patients with locally advanced breast cancer undergoing neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC), some patients achieve a complete pathologic response (pCR), some achieve a partial response, and some do not respond at all or even progress. Accurate predicti...
BACKGROUND: Reported data regarding the relation between the incidence of spontaneous subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) and weather conditions are conflicting and do so far not allow prognostic models.
OBJECTIVE: Promptly establishing maintenance therapy could reduce morbidity and mortality in patients with bipolar disorder. Using a machine learning approach, we sought to evaluate whether lithium responsiveness (LR) is predictable using clinical ma...
