"miRNA colorectal cancer" (https://mirna-coadread.omics.si/) is a freely available web application for studying microRNA and mRNA expression and their correlation in colorectal cancer. To the best of our knowledge, "miRNA colorectal cancer" has the l...
BACKGROUND AND AIMS: The quality of bowel preparation is an important factor that can affect the effectiveness of a colonoscopy. Several tools, such as the Boston Bowel Preparation Scale (BBPS) and Ottawa Bowel Preparation Scale, have been developed ...
Machine learning algorithms hold the promise to effectively automate the analysis of histopathological images that are routinely generated in clinical practice. Any machine learning method used in the clinical diagnostic process has to be extremely a...

The objective of our study was to analyze the feasibility and potential role of robotic-assisted transrectal MRI-guided biopsy for the diagnosis of prostate cancer. A total of 57 patients (mean age, 67 ± 6 [SD] years; age range, 57-83 years; mean p...
PURPOSE: To develop and validate an Artificial Intelligence (AI) model based on texture analysis of high-resolution T2 weighted MR images able 1) to predict pathologic Complete Response (CR) and 2) to identify non-responders (NR) among patients with ...
PURPOSE: To predict the neoadjuvant chemoradiation therapy (CRT) response in patients with locally advanced rectal cancer (LARC) using radiomics and deep learning based on pre-treatment MRI and a mid-radiation follow-up MRI taken 3-4 weeks after the ...
BACKGROUND: Although recent advances in multiparametric magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) led to an increase in MRI-transrectal ultrasound (TRUS) fusion prostate biopsies, these are time consuming, laborious, and costly. Introduction of deep-learning ...
Accurate segmentation of the prostate and organs at risk (e.g., bladder and rectum) in CT images is a crucial step for radiation therapy in the treatment of prostate cancer. However, it is a very challenging task due to unclear boundaries, large intr...
