Article Synopsis
  • Peritoneal washing cytology (CY) is primarily used for staging pancreatic cancer and assessing intraperitoneal status for better prognosis predictions.
  • This study explored using deep learning techniques like Vision Transformer (ViT) and Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) to analyze CY specimen images from 88 patients to predict their 1-year survival rates.
  • The findings revealed that both AI models had high accuracy in prognosis prediction, with ViT being slightly more effective, and identified neutrophils as a potential negative prognostic marker for these patients.
