Multimodal radiopathological integration for prognosis of limited and extensive stage small cell lung cancer

Small-cell lung cancer (SCLC) is an aggressive malignancy with poor survival and no validated prognostic biomarkers. We developed and validated a multimodal artificial intelligence–based radiopathomic framework to predict progression-free survival (PFS) by integrating radiologic...
