Deep learning for end-to-end kidney cancer diagnosis on multi-phase abdominal computed tomography
Abstract In 2020, it is estimated that 73,750 kidney cancer cases were diagnosed, and 14,830 people died from cancer in the United States. Preoperative multi-phase abdominal computed tomography (CT) is often used for detecting lesions and classifying histologic subtypes of renal tumor to avoid unnec...
