OBJECTIVES: Reliable methods for predicting pathological complete response (pCR) in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients undergoing neoadjuvant chemoimmunotherapy are still under exploration. Although Fluorine-18 fluorodeoxyglucose-positron em...
BACKGROUND: Classification of the etiologies of pleural effusion is a critical challenge in clinical practice. Traditional diagnostic methods rely on a simple cut-off method based on the laboratory tests. However, machine learning (ML) offers a novel...
BACKGROUND: The growing demand for follow-up imaging highlights the need for tools supporting the assessment of pulmonary nodules over time. We evaluated the performance of an artificial intelligence (AI)-based system for automated nodule matching.
BACKGROUND: Breast magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) protocols often include T2-weighted fat-saturated (T2w-FS) sequences, which support tissue characterization but significantly increase scan time. This study aims to evaluate whether a 2D-U-Net neura...
Purpose To develop and validate a deep multitask network, MultiRecNet, for fully automatic prediction of disease-free survival (DFS) in patients with neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy (nCRT)-treated locally advanced rectal cancer (LARC). Materials and Me...
Purpose To develop and evaluate a novel deep learning-based approach for registering presurgical MR and whole-mount histopathology (WMHP) images of the prostate. Materials and Methods This retrospective study included patients who underwent prostate ...
Purpose To develop an artificial intelligence (AI) model based on gadoxetic acid-enhanced MRI to assist radiologists in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) diagnosis. Materials and Methods This retrospective study included patients with focal liver lesion...
BACKGROUND: Lymph node metastasis (LNM) poses a considerable threat to survival in lung adenocarcinoma. Currently, minor resection is the recommended surgical approach for small-diameter lung cancer. The accurate preoperative identification of LNM in...
INTRODUCTION: Obstructive type of urination requires accurate and timely diagnosis to prevent complications and improve the quality of life of patients. Traditional diagnostic methods such as uroflowmetry, although they remain the standard, have thei...
