DeepMTS: Deep Multi-task Learning for Survival Prediction in Patients with Advanced Nasopharyngeal Carcinoma using Pretreatment PET/CT [PDF]
IEEE Journal of Biomedical and Health Informatics, vol. 26, no. 9,
pp. 4497-4507, 2022, 2021 Nasopharyngeal Carcinoma (NPC) is a malignant epithelial cancer arising from the nasopharynx. Survival prediction is a major concern for NPC patients, as it provides early prognostic information to plan treatments. Recently, deep survival models based on deep learning have demonstrated the potential to outperform traditional radiomics-based survival ...

Prediction of 5-year Progression-Free Survival in Advanced Nasopharyngeal Carcinoma with Pretreatment PET/CT using Multi-Modality Deep Learning-based Radiomics [PDF]
Frontiers in Oncology, vol. 12, pp. 899352, 2022, 2021 Objective: Deep Learning-based Radiomics (DLR) has achieved great success in medical image analysis and has been considered a replacement for conventional radiomics that relies on handcrafted features. In this study, we aimed to explore the capability of DLR for the prediction of 5-year Progression-Free Survival (PFS) in Nasopharyngeal Carcinoma (NPC ...
