Official Title: Development and Validation of a Tumor Microenvironmental Collagen Signature Based on Multiphoton Microscopy to Predict Upper Mediastinal Lymph Node Metastasis of Patients with Thyroid Cancer
Brief Summary:
About 7-13% thyroid cancer patients have upper mediastinal lymph node metastasis, but its clinical identification is insufficient.Effective and individualized identification strategy need to be studied.Multi-photon imaging technology can accurately image tissue collagen fibers by femtosecond laser, and quantitatively extract parameters such as morphology and texture from them, which can be used to predict lymph node metastasis of gastric cancer and intestinal cancer.Therefore, the investigators speculate that the…
