Advancing Cancer Care: Predicting Mesothelioma Survival Time Using Deep Learning

Cancer treatment is complex. Doctors need to estimate how long patients might live to choose the best treatments. New technologies like machine learning and deep learning have improved this process. These technologies are especially good at predicting how long cancer patients might survive. Novel Approach A new study focuses on a rare cancer called epithelioid malignant peritoneal mesothelioma. Researchers have developed a new deep learning network to predict how long patients with this cancer might live. This new approach is more efficient than others because it doesn’t require manual note-taking. The new model was tested using clinical data. They included factors like the Peritoneal Cancer Index and whether patients received chemotherapy. The results showed that the model performed better than…
