Title
Development and validation of a survival model for lung cancer using pathological images
Summary
Lung cancer is a serious disease that affects the quality of people's lives worldwide, and its survival evaluation is greatly significant. Pathological images can play a crucial role in predicting the survival outcome of patient, in that the growth of tumor cells and the micro-environment of tumor tissues can intuitively reflect the status of cancer. Therefore, an interesting topic is to construct the survival model for lung cancer based on pathological images.
Aims
This project aims to construct a model for lung cancer survival prediction using pathology images, which can identify important pathological features and indicate the risk level of patients.
