IMPORTANCE: Oral squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) is a lethal malignant neoplasm with a high rate of tumor metastasis and recurrence. Accurate diagnosis, prognosis prediction, and metastasis detection can improve patient outcomes. Deep learning for clin...
Rectal magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is the preferred method for the diagnosis of rectal cancer as recommended by the guidelines. Rectal MRI can accurately evaluate the tumor location, tumor stage, invasion depth, extramural vascular invasion, and...
OBJECTIVE: We aim to present a case of a 43-year-old patient dia-gnosed with cervical adenocarcinoma in the 15th week of pregnancy, who underwent robotically-assisted staging in a laparoscopic pelvic lymphadenectomy. Further therapeutic approach was ...

To generate synthetic CT (sCT) images with high quality from CBCT and planning CT (pCT) for dose calculation by using deep learning methods. 169 NPC patients with a total of 20926 slices of CBCT and pCT images were included. In this study the Cycle...
BACKGROUND: Prognostic modeling in health care has been predominantly statistical, despite a rapid growth of literature on machine-learning approaches in biological data analysis. We aim to assess the relative importance of variables in predicting ov...
OBJECTIVE: Among western males, prostate cancer is the most frequent oncological disease. Since the widespread of PSA, diagnoses in younger adults is increasing. The aim of this study is to analyze pathological features and biochemical recurrence eve...
PURPOSE: For patients with early-stage breast cancer, predicting the risk of metastatic relapse is of crucial importance. Existing predictive models rely on agnostic survival analysis statistical tools (eg, Cox regression). Here we define and evaluat...
