Prediction of pathological risk subtypes of thymic anterior mediastinal cysts and thymic epithelial tumors based on CT radiomics and deep learning methods: a retrospective study

In this study, a model for predicting pathological risk classification of thymic anterior mediastinal cysts and thymic epithelial tumors was developed by combining radiomics and deep learning, and its superior prediction was confirmed in verification. The results show that the model is capable of preoperatively assessing the pathological risk classification of patients, which provides strong support for the need of individual treatment strategies.
