AI predicts lung cancer mutations from scans using multi-label learning

Researchers have developed a multi-label learning approach using deep learning to predict specific gene mutations (EGFR, TP53, and KRAS) in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) from PET/CT scans. The study, conducted on a UK-based cohort, found that the effectiveness of multi-label learning varied depending on the gene mutation pairs, with joint prediction of KRAS and TP53 showing improved AUC scores. These findings suggest that mutation-specific modeling strategies may be more beneficial for PET/CT radiogenomic prediction. AI

IMPACT This research could lead to less invasive methods for identifying key genetic mutations in lung cancer, potentially improving treatment selection and patient outcomes.

    PET/CT Radiogenomic Mutation Prediction in Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer Using Multi-Label Learning

    arXiv:2608.09721v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Lung cancer remains one of the leading causes of cancer- related mortality worldwide. Although targeted therapies have improved outcomes for patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), they rely on mutation profiling through t…
