Deep Convolutional Neural Networks Detect Tumor Genotype from Pathological Tissue Images in Gastrointestinal Stromal Tumors

Gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GIST) are common mesenchymal tumors, and their effective treatment depends upon the mutational subtype of the <i>KIT/PDGFRA</i> genes. We established deep convolutional neural network (DCNN) models to rapidly predict drug-sensitive mutation subtypes from...
