Integrating tumor location into artificial intelligence-based prognostic models in cancer

Figure 1 Tumor types where anatomical location affects prognosis. It illustrates multiple cancer types where tumor prognosis varies with anatomical location. Examples include brain tumors (brainstem vs non-eloquent regions), lung cancer (central vs peripheral), intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (perihilar vs peripheral), renal cell carcinoma (hilar vs peripheral), pancreatic cancer (head vs body/tail), esophageal cancer (upper vs lower), breast cancer (upper lateral quadrant vs other quadrants), gastric cancer (cardia vs non-cardia), colorectal cancer (right-sided vs left-sided), and melanoma (head and neck, trunk, upper extremities, lower extremities). GEJ: Gastroesophageal junction.
