Abstract:
Esophageal cancer is a common upper gastrointestinal cancer with high rates of morbidity and mortality,resulting in a poor prognosis.Treatment options for it primarily depends on the TNM stage.Precise stage diagnosis and prognosis evaluation can provide important reference for doctors to choose appropriate treatment strategies.Radiomics can extract a large number of quantitative features from medical images,revealing information about lesions that may be hidden from human doctors.This approach can effectively evaluate the heterogeneity of tumors in an objective and non-destructive manner,making it a valuable tool in the diagnosis,classification and prognosis evaluation of various types of cancer.This paper analyzes the recent researches and applications at home and abroad related to the clinical stage diagnosis and prognosis evaluation of esophageal cancer.By exploring current research statuses and progress,as well as potential future research directions,this paper aims to provide a precise reference for the stage diagnosis and prognosis evaluation of esophageal cancer that can guide doctors in making reasonable treatment decisions.
