IntroductionThyroid cancer is a common malignant tumor, and early diagnosis and timely treatment are crucial to improve patient prognosis. With the increasing use of enhanced CT scans, a new opportunity for early thyroid cancer screening has emerged....
PURPOSE: For patients suffering from differentiated thyroid cancer (DTC), several clinical, laboratory, and pathological features (including patient age, tumor size, extrathyroidal extension, or serum thyroglobulin levels) are currently used to ident...
Early detection of malignant thyroid nodules is crucial for effective treatment, but traditional diagnostic methods face challenges such as variability in expert opinions and limited integration of advanced imaging techniques. This prospective cohort...
BACKGROUND: Malignant tumors are a major global health crisis, causing 25% of deaths in China, with lung, liver, thyroid, breast, and colon cancers being the most common. Understanding the factors influencing hospitalization costs for these cancers i...
BACKGROUND: Popularized by ChatGPT, large language models (LLMs) are poised to transform the scalability of clinical natural language processing (NLP) downstream tasks such as medical question answering (MQA) and automated data extraction from clinic...
OBJECTIVE: The incidence of thyroid cancer (TC) is increasing in China, largely due to overdiagnosis from widespread screening and improved ultrasound technology. Identifying precise TC biomarkers is crucial for accurate diagnosis and effective treat...
OBJECTIVES: To develop and validate a machine learning (ML) model to differentiate malignant from benign thyroid nodules (TNs) based on the routine data and provide diagnostic assistance for medical professionals.

BACKGROUND: Differentiated thyroid cancer (DTC) is a common endocrine malignancy with rising incidence and frequent recurrence, despite a generally favorable prognosis. Accurate recurrence prediction is critical for guiding post-treatment strategies....
Artificial intelligence applications in oncology imaging often struggle with diagnosing rare tumors. We identify significant gaps in detecting uncommon thyroid cancer types with ultrasound, where scarce data leads to frequent misdiagnosis. Traditiona...
