Artificial Neural Network Modelling Using Pre-Operative MRI Features to Predict Obesity in Pediatric Patients With Craniopharyngioma Treated With Proton Therapy
CONCLUSION: A predictive model of post-treatment BMI increase for pediatric patients with craniopharyngioma was developed with relatively high accuracy and AUC. This model could facilitate early identification of patients at risk for obesity after treatment for close surveillance and intervention.PMID:34700733 | DOI:10.1016/j.ijrobp.2021.07.549
