BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: This study investigates the use of Vision Transformers (ViTs) to predict Freedom from Local Failure (FFLF) in patients with brain metastases using pre-operative MRI scans. The goal is to develop a model that enhances risk stra...
INTRODUCTION: We assessed the outcomes of stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) for small intact brain metastases (SBM) (≤ 2 cm) and developed machine learning (ML) algorithms to predict the probability of local failure (LF).

PURPOSE: With increasing use of human epithelial growth factor receptor two (HER2)-targeted therapies, outcomes for numerous breast cancer patients have improved. Nevertheless, patients with HER2-positive tumours face a comparatively heightened risk ...
BACKGROUND: Vestibular schwannomas (VS) are benign tumors that can lead to hearing loss, balance issues, and tinnitus. Gamma Knife Radiosurgery (GKS) is a common treatment for VS, aimed at halting tumor growth and preserving neurological function. Ac...
