Detection of Incidental Esophageal Cancers on Chest CT by Deep Learning

ObjectiveTo develop a deep learning-based model using esophageal thickness to detect esophageal cancer from unenhanced chest CT images.MethodsWe retrospectively identified 141 patients with esophageal cancer and 273 patients negative for esophageal cancer (at the time of imaging) for model training....
