RATIONALE AND OBJECTIVES: To systematically evaluate the application value of radiomics and deep learning (DL) in the differential diagnosis of benign and malignant soft tissue tumors (STTs).
BACKGROUND: Soft tissue sarcoma (STS) is a highly heterogeneous musculoskeletal tumor with a significant impact on human health due to its high incidence and malignancy. Long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) and Neutrophil Extracellular Traps (NETs) have cruc...
BACKGROUND: Most of superficial soft-tissue masses are benign tumors, and very few are malignant tumors. However, persistent growth, of both benign and malignant tumors, can be painful and even life-threatening. It is necessary to improve the differe...
The accuracy and timeliness of the pathologic diagnosis of soft tissue tumors (STTs) critically affect treatment decision and patient prognosis. Thus, it is crucial to make a preliminary judgement on whether the tumor is benign or malignant with hema...
Uterine sarcomas have very poor prognoses and are sometimes difficult to distinguish from uterine leiomyomas on preoperative examinations. Herein, we investigated whether deep neural network (DNN) models can improve the accuracy of preoperative MRI-b...
OBJECTIVES: Malignancy of lipomatous soft-tissue tumours diagnosis is suspected on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and requires a biopsy. The aim of this study is to compare the performances of MRI radiomic machine learning (ML) analysis with deep l...
BACKGROUND: Soft tissue sarcoma is a rare and highly heterogeneous tumor in clinical practice. Pathological grading of the soft tissue sarcoma is a key factor in patient prognosis and treatment planning while the clinical data of soft tissue sarcoma ...
Positron emission tomography-computed tomography (PET-CT) is regarded as the imaging modality of choice for the management of soft-tissue sarcomas (STSs). Distant metastases (DM) are the leading cause of death in STS patients and early detection is i...

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: The delineation of the gross tumor volume (GTV) is a critical step for radiation therapy treatment planning. The delineation procedure is typically performed manually which exposes two major issues: cost and reproducibility. D...
OBJECTIVE: To develop high-quality synthetic CT (sCT) generation method from low-dose cone-beam CT (CBCT) images by using attention-guided generative adversarial networks (AGGAN) and apply these images to dose calculations in radiotherapy.
