A Deep Learning Model to Predict the Response to Neoadjuvant Chemoradiotherapy by the Pretreatment Apparent Diffusion Coefficient Images of Locally Advanced Rectal Cancer

Background and PurposePretreatment prediction of the response to neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy (NCRT) helps to determine the subsequent plans for the patients with locally advanced rectal cancer (LARC). If the good responders (GR) and non-good responders (non-GR) can be accurately predicted, they ca...
