OBJECTIVE: This study aims to both develop and evaluate a predictive model for ureteral access sheath(UAS)placement success using preoperative CT-based 3D ureteral imaging and machine learning techniques. Specifically, it investigates the impact of u...
PURPOSE: To develop a machine learning model for predicting stone-free (SF) outcomes following extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy (SWL) and to identify key clinical and stone-related predictors using interpretable machine learning techniques.
OBJECTIVES: This study aimed to develop and validate a machine learning (ML) model that integrates radiomics and conventional radiological features to predict the success of single-session extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy (ESWL) for ureteral sto...
Diagnosing ureteral stones with low-dose CT in patients with metal hardware can be challenging because of image noise. The purpose of this study was to compare ureteral stone detection and image quality of low-dose and conventional CT scans with and...
OBJECTIVES: To develop a deep learning (DL) model based on computed tomography (CT) images to predict the success of extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy (SWL) treatment for patients with ureteral stones larger than 1 cm.
Urinary tract stones are a common and frequently recurring medical issue. Accurately predicting the success rate after surgery can help avoid ineffective medical procedures and reduce unnecessary healthcare costs. This study collected data from patie...
PURPOSE: To establish a prediction model for repeated shockwave lithotripsy (SWL) efficacy to help choose an appropriate treatment plan for patients with a single failed lithotripsy, reducing their treatment burden.
INTRODUCTION: Among upper urinary tract stones, a significant proportion comprises uric acid stones. The aim of this study was to use machine learning techniques to analyze CT scans and blood and urine test data, with the aim of establishing multiple...
