Breast Cancer Induced Bone Osteolysis Prediction Using Temporal Variational Auto-Encoders [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2022
Objective and Impact Statement. We adopt a deep learning model for bone osteolysis prediction on computed tomography (CT) images of murine breast cancer bone metastases. Given the bone CT scans at previous time steps, the model incorporates the bone-cancer interactions learned from the sequential images and generates future CT images.
