A novel and simple machine learning algorithm for preoperative diagnosis of acute appendicitis in children.

Pediatric surgery international
INTRODUCTION: There is a tendency toward nonoperative management of appendicitis resulting in an increasing need for preoperative diagnosis and classification. For medical purposes, simple conceptual decision-making models that can learn are widely u...

Deep learning radiomics can predict axillary lymph node status in early-stage breast cancer.

Nature communications
Accurate identification of axillary lymph node (ALN) involvement in patients with early-stage breast cancer is important for determining appropriate axillary treatment options and therefore avoiding unnecessary axillary surgery and complications. Her...

Assessment of utilization efficiency using machine learning techniques: A study of heterogeneity in preoperative healthcare utilization among super-utilizers.

American journal of surgery
INTRODUCTION: In the United States, 5% of patients represent up to 55% of all health care costs. This study sought to define healthcare utilization patterns among super-utilizers, as well as assess possible variation in patient outcomes.

A machine learning model for the prediction of survival and tumor subtype in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma from preoperative diffusion-weighted imaging.

European radiology experimental
BACKGROUND: To develop a supervised machine learning (ML) algorithm predicting above- versus below-median overall survival (OS) from diffusion-weighted imaging-derived radiomic features in patients with pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC).

An automated machine learning-based model predicts postoperative mortality using readily-extractable preoperative electronic health record data.

British journal of anaesthesia
BACKGROUND: Rapid, preoperative identification of patients with the highest risk for medical complications is necessary to ensure that limited infrastructure and human resources are directed towards those most likely to benefit. Existing risk scores ...

Preoperative Prediction of Value Metrics and a Patient-Specific Payment Model for Primary Total Hip Arthroplasty: Development and Validation of a Deep Learning Model.

The Journal of arthroplasty
BACKGROUND: The primary objective was to develop and test an artificial neural network (ANN) that learns and predicts length of stay (LOS), inpatient charges, and discharge disposition for total hip arthroplasty. The secondary objective was to create...

Machine Learning Can Improve Estimation of Surgical Case Duration: A Pilot Study.

Journal of medical systems
Operating room (OR) utilization is a significant determinant of hospital profitability. One aspect of this is surgical scheduling, which depends on accurate predictions of case duration. This has been done historically by either the surgeon based on ...

MRI radiomics analysis of molecular alterations in low-grade gliomas.

International journal of computer assisted radiology and surgery
PURPOSE: Low-grade gliomas (LGG) are classified into three distinct groups based on their IDH1 mutation and 1p/19q codeletion status, each of which is associated with a different clinical expression. The genomic sub-classification of LGG requires tum...
