A novel comprehensive metric balancing imaging dose and setup accuracy in image-guided radiotherapy: concept proposal and clinical validation by Jiang Liu, Xinhui Fu, Xinhui Fu, Zhiyao Luo, Chuou Yin, Qiao Li, Xigang Fan, Tian Li, Chen Lin, Shouping Xu, Yibao Zhang, Yibao Zhang

“…Using w1=w2 = 0.5 as an example, the smallest mean, standard deviation, and IQR of DAPw were observed on the 100 kV CBCT, indicating optimal balance between dose and accuracy than the other two methods. Analysis of variance (ANOVA) showed statistically significant differences in DAPw among the different imaging methods (P<0.01, F=50.57).ConclusionUsing registration consistency as a surrogate indicator of image quality, this study proposed and validated a novel “DAPw” parameter based on real patient data, providing a purpose-specific tool for balancing setup accuracy and radiation dose in clinic.…”

Integrating proteomics and machine learning reveals characteristics and risks of lymph node-independent distant metastasis in colorectal cancer by Chenxiao Zheng, Baiwang Zhu, Yanyu Chen, Numan Shahid, Yiwang Hu, Hajar Mansoor Ahmed Ali Husain, Binbin Ou, Qiongying Zhang, Haobo Jin, Yating Zheng, Peng Li, Yifei Pan, Xiaodong Zhang, Xiaodong Zhang

“…The biological traits of lymph node-independent metastasis in CRC are unclear, and early synchronous metastasis is hard to predict with current imaging or clinicopathological methods.MethodWe collected samples from 12 CRC patients with synchronous distant metastasis without LNM (T1-3N0M1). Data-Independent Acquisition Mass Spectrometry (DIA-MS), multi-omics data integration, and machine learning were used to develop a Lymph node-Independent Metastasis Genes (LIMGs) signature to predict synchronous distant metastasis risk in stage I-II CRC patients and validate it in multi-cohort. …”
