Bayesian Inference of Tissue Heterogeneity for Individualized Prediction of Glioma Growth

Personalized Prediction of Glioma Growth Using Bayesian Inference Introduction Glioblastoma is the most aggressive type of primary brain tumor, characterized by highly invasive tumor cells that spread to surrounding tissues. Conventional medical imaging techniques cannot precisely identify these diffuse tumor boundaries, leading to suboptimal clini...

Deep Learning of Imaging Phenotype and Genotype for Predicting Overall Survival Time of Glioblastoma Patients

Deep Learning of Imaging Phenotype and Genotype for Predicting Overall Survival Time of Glioblastoma Patients

Globally, the most common and deadly malignant brain tumor is glioblastoma (Glioblastoma, GBM). In recent years, research has continuously attempted to predict the overall survival time (OS) of GBM patients using machine learning techniques based on preoperative single-modality or multi-modality imaging phenotypes. Although these machine learning m...
