Aim and objective

Melanoma is one of the fatal forms of skin-cancers and requires immediate attention. New prognostic markers and strategies are needed for more accurate risk prediction. The model implemented here achieves this risk stratification with a minimal number of features and a greater accuracy than using individual features. Following this risk estimation, better therapy choices can be implemented and survival chances of melanoma patients can be improved. See supplement section for more information. .

Predict

Users are provided with four input fields 1) N stage 2) M stage 3) Ulceration Status and 4) Breslow Thickness. Based on this input, a RG value is assigned according to the model (see Supplement). The results displayed show the survival probability (life expectancy) with respect to time in years. A table is also provided for the same. These results correspond to the patients in the dataset with the same RG value.

Mobile Compatibility
