The diagnostic value of machine learning for the classification of malignant bone tumor: a systematic evaluation and meta-analysis.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Malignant bone tumors are a type of cancer with varying malignancy and prognosis. Accurate diagnosis and classification are crucial for treatment and prognosis assessment. Machine learning has been introduced for early differential diagnosis of malignant bone tumors, but its performance is controversial. This systematic review and meta-analysis aims to explore the diagnostic value of machine learning for malignant bone tumors.

Methods

PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Library, and Web of Science were searched for literature on machine learning in the differential diagnosis of malignant bone tumors up to October 31, 2022. The risk of bias assessment was conducted using QUADAS-2. A bivariate mixed-effects model was used for meta-analysis, with subgroup analyses by machine le
