Background Neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) is the standard of care for patients with
locally advanced breast cancer (LABC). The study was conducted to investigate the utility of …

Background This study was conducted in order to develop a model for predicting response
to neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) in patients with locally advanced breast cancer (LABC) …

Background Pathological response of breast cancer to chemotherapy is a prognostic
indicator for long-term disease free and overall survival. Responses of locally advanced …

Purpose This study demonstrated the ability of quantitative ultrasound (QUS) parameters in
providing an early prediction of tumor response to neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) in …

PURPOSE: The purpose of this study was to develop computational algorithms to best
determine tumor responses early after the start of neoadjuvant chemotherapy, based on …

Objective To develop and validate a radiomics nomogram based on pre-treatment, early
treatment ultrasound (US) radiomics features combined with clinical characteristics for early …

Anti-cancer therapies including chemotherapy aim to induce tumour cell death. Cell death
introduces alterations in cell morphology and tissue micro-structures that cause measurable …

Background: To investigate quantitative ultrasound (QUS) based higher-order texture
derivatives in predicting the response to neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) in patients with …

Quantitative ultrasound (QUS) can probe tissue structure and analyze tumour
characteristics. Using a 6-MHz ultrasound system, radiofrequency data were acquired from …

The incidence and mortality rate of breast cancer (BC) in women currently ranks first
worldwide, and neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) is widely used in patients with BC. A …
