| Core Tip |
To better predict lymph node metastasis (LNM) in advanced colorectal cancer, this pilot study developed a case-level deep learning framework. By analysing the pathology slides of all patients and emulating a pathologist's workflow, the model achieved a high area under the curve of 0.899, outperforming traditional methods. Integrating the clinical data further increased the accuracy to 0.904. This interpretable approach is a promising tool for refining LNM risk assessments and guiding adjuvant therapy decisions. |
