Deep learning combines breast imaging data to predict cancer prognosis

AuntMinnie

The researchers included data from 1,242 patients recruited between 2013 and 2018 and divided them into training (n = 1,014) and testing groups (n = 228). They collected imaging data to establish deep-learning models using ResNet50. They used area under the receiver operating curve (AUC) to measure the predictive performance of the models.

Low risk of oropharynx cancer on PET/CT, surgeons advise

AuntMinnie

To bridge this knowledge gap, the group analyzed 327 PET/CT diagnostic radiology reports between January 2001 and December 2018 at their institution that included descriptions of the finding. These signs often prompt otolaryngology referral to rule out malignancy yet the true risk based on the finding is unknown, they noted.
