Description

Ghezzo and co-authors test whether a PET-based radiomics signature for prostate cancer works beyond its home center. The signature reads patterns in PSMA-11 PET scans to characterize primary prostate tumors. Tissue pathology served as the reference truth. A two-center validation checked external generalisability, the weak point of many scan-based models, where accuracy often drops on data from new hospitals and scanners.
