Machine Learning for the Prediction of Lymph Nodes Micrometastasis in Patients with Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer: A Comparative Analysis of Two Practical Prediction Models for Gross Target Volume Delineation

We successfully established an accurate and optimized RF model that could be used to predict LNM in patients with NSCLC. This model can be used to evaluate the risk of an individual patient experiencing LNM and therefore facilitate the choice of treatment.
