Fig. 4

Sankey diagram illustrating the episode change of three malignant tumor diagnoses up to 5 time steps. The diagram begins with three initial nodes representing the cancer diagnoses: Metastasis (blue), Glioma (red), and Lymphoma (green). Links carry the diagnosis colors and connect to subsequent nodes representing time-step-specific episode states: Progression (orange), Stable (light blue), and Improvement (yellow). The flows visualize transitions across up to 5 time steps (t0 ~ t4), with link thickness indicating transition counts.
