Overview
This study aims to develop an ultrasound image-based deep learning system to enable automatic segmentation, T-staging, and pathological grading prediction of bladder tumors. It seeks to enhance the objectivity, accuracy, and efficiency of bladder cancer diagnosis, reduce reliance on physician experience, and provide support for precision medicine and resource optimization.
Eligibility
Inclusion Criteria:① Suspected bladder mass detected by abdominal ultrasound (age ≥18 years);② Patients scheduled for surgical treatment of bladder tumors.
Exclusion Criteria:
- Age >85 years;
- Patients unable to undergo abdominal/transrectal ultrasound (e.g.,
uncooperative individuals, technically inadequate images);
- History of bladder tumor surgery, radiotherapy, chemotherapy, or systemic
therapy within 3 months; ④ Patients with indwelling medical devices (e.g.,
double-J ureteral stents, urinary catheters);
- Failure to undergo bladder tumor surgery within 2 weeks post-ultrasound; ⑥ Non-urothelial carcinoma or pathologically unconfirmed diagnoses.
- History of bladder tumor surgery, radiotherapy, chemotherapy, or systemic
therapy within 3 months; ④ Patients with indwelling medical devices (e.g.,
double-J ureteral stents, urinary catheters);
- Patients unable to undergo abdominal/transrectal ultrasound (e.g.,
uncooperative individuals, technically inadequate images);
