Machine learning based gray-level co-occurrence matrix early warning system enables accurate detection of colorectal cancer pelvic bone metastases on MRI.

Objective: The mortality of colorectal cancer patients with pelvic bone metastasis is imminent, and timely diagnosis and intervention to improve the prognosis is particularly important. Therefore, this study aimed to build a bone metastasis prediction model based on Gray level Co-occurrence Matrix (GLCM) - based Score to guide clinical diagnosis and treatment.

Methods: We retrospectively included 614 patients with colorectal cancer who underwent pelvic multiparameter magnetic resonance image(MRI) from January 2015 to January 2022 in the gastrointestinal surgery department of Gezhouba Central Hospital of Sinopharm.

Supervised Learning Based Systemic Inflammatory Markers Enable Accurate Additional Surgery for pT1NxM0 Colorectal Cancer: A Comparative Analysis of Two Practical Prediction Models for Lymph Node Metastasis.

Purpose: Predicting lymph node metastasis (LNM) after endoscopic resection is crucial in determining whether patients with pT1NxM0 colorectal cancer (CRC) should undergo additional surgery. This study was aimed to develop a predictive model that can be used to reduce the current likelihood of overtreatment.

Patients And Methods: We recruited a total of 1194 consecutive CRC patients with pT1NxM0 who underwent endoscopic or surgical resection at the Gezhouba Central Hospital of Sinopharm between January 1, 2006, and August 31, 2021.

Combining CRF and multi-hypothesis detection for accurate lesion segmentation in breast sonograms.

The implementation of lesion segmentation for breast ultrasound image relies on several diagnostic rules on intensity, texture, etc. In this paper, we propose a novel algorithm to achieve a comprehensive decision upon these rules by incorporating image over-segmentation and lesion detection in a pairwise CRF model, rather than a term-by-term translation. Multiple detection hypotheses are used to propagate object-level cues to segments and a unified classifier is trained based on the concatenated features.
