We developed a hybrid deep learning network combining convolutional neural (CNN) and long short-term memory (LTSM) networks to predict slice-to-slice consistent responses to neoadjuvant systematic therapy (NAST) in triple negative breast cancer (TNBC) patients using multislice quantitative SyntheticMR images. We demonstrated that neural networks originally developed for video feature classification can be adapted to predict treatment response of cancer patients using MR images. Our hybrid network was able to overcome the slice-to-slice inconsistency that would have resulted if a 2D network is applied directly, therefore providing higher prediction accuracy.
