A Pathological Image-Based Pathomics Signature Combined with Clinicopathological Features for Predicting Lymph Node Metastasis in Esophageal Squamous Cell Carcinoma: A Development and External Validation Study
2026-08-25
Abstract excerpt
<h4>Background: </h4> Esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) accounts for over 80% of esophageal cancer cases globally. Accurate preoperative prediction of lymph node metastasis (LNM) is critical for treatment decision-making, yet current clinical staging frequently underestimates nodal disease burden. Pathomics — the high-throughput quantitative analysis of histopathological images — offers an opportunity to c...
