Objectives: Pancreatic cancer is a lethal disease, hard to diagnose and usually results in poor prognosis and high mortality. Developing an artificial intelligence (AI) algorithm to accurately and universally predict the early cancer risk of all kinds of pancreatic cancer is extremely important. We propose an ensemble AI algorithm to predict universally cancer risk of all kinds of pancreatic lesions with noncontrast CT. Methods: Our algorithm combines the radiomics method and a support tensor machine (STM) by the …
