Cervical cancer is the fourth most common cancer in the world. Whole-slide images (WSIs) are an important standard for the diagnosis of cervical cancer. Missed diagnoses and misdiagnoses often occur due to the high similarity in pathological cervical...
BACKGROUND: Colposcopy diagnosis and directed biopsy are the key components in cervical cancer screening programs. However, their performance is limited by the requirement for experienced colposcopists. This study aimed to develop and validate a Colp...

PURPOSE: The delineation of the clinical target volume (CTV) is a crucial, laborious and subjective step in cervical cancer radiotherapy. The aim of this study was to propose and evaluate a novel end-to-end convolutional neural network (CNN) for full...
Electronic health records (EHRs) contain rich documentation regarding disease symptoms and progression, but EHR data is challenging to use for diagnosis prediction due to its high dimensionality, relative scarcity, and substantial level of noise. We ...
