Abstract:<b><i>Introduction:</i></b> Renal cell carcinoma (RCC) is the ninth most common cancer worldwide, with clear cell RCC (ccRCC) being the most frequent histological subtype. The tumor immune microenvironment (TIME) of ccRCC is an important factor to guide treatment, but current assessments are tissue-based, which can be time-consuming and resource-intensive. In this study, we used radiomics extracted from clinically performed computed tomography (CT) as a noninvasive surrogate for CD68 tu… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
