A multimodal MRI-based deep learning model for non-invasive diagnosis of pineal region germinoma
PURPOSE: To develop a deep learning model for the preoperative, non-invasive identification of germinomas in the pineal region. This retrospective study included 114 patients with pathologically confirmed pineal region tumors. The cohort was randomly divided into a training set (n = 91) and a test set (n = 23). The training set was further partitioned into three folds for cross-validation. A convolutional neural network (CNN) enhanced with contrastive learning was used to extract discriminative features from ind…
A CNN with contrastive learning and mixed-attention fusion of multimodal MRI and demographic data achieved test set ACC 0.855 and AUC 0.919 for preoperative identification of pineal region germinoma, outperforming single-modality models.
Retrospective design with small single-cohort sample (114 total, 23 test) limits generalizability and requires external validation before clinical use.

How to verify without trusting this page
Fetch the canonical text of any version from /api/record/TRV-2026-0825 and hash it yourself — for example shasum -a 256 on the saved canonical field. The result must equal content_hash, and each version’s text ends with prev:followed by the prior version’s hash (version 1 chains to 64 zeros). If a single character of any version had been altered since certification, the chain would not reproduce.
