Using PET/CT radiomics in the preoperative prediction of clinical and pathological stages for esophageal cancer patients
In this study, the feasibility and accuracy of PET-CT-based radiomics in preoperative prediction of clinical and pathological stages for esophageal cancer (EC) patients was investigated using a sample of 100 EC patients. The authors observed accurate prediction ability with combined PET and CT radiomics in the prediction of T stage, lymph node metastasis (LNM), and pstage, showing that PET-CT-based radiomics
