Other: No specific interventions.
Registration Number
NCT06442839
Lead Sponsor
Third Affiliated Hospital, Sun Yat-Sen University
Brief Summary

Bladder cancer is the ninth most common malignant tumor worldwide, characterized by high malignancy and poor prognosis. We intend to develop a CT-based tumor budding predictive model for bladder cancer using deep learning algorithms. This model will facilitate preoperative assessment of patient conditions, enabling the formulation of more precise and personalized treatment plans.

Tumor Budding: An OverviewOne year after being discharged following surgery

Tumor budding is a histopathological phenomenon observed in various types of cancer, including bladder cancer. It refers to the presence of single cells or small clusters of cells (less than five) at the invasive front of tumors. These buds are indicative of an epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT), a process where epithelial cells acquire mesenchymal, invasive characteristics, which is crucial for cancer invasion and metastasis.
