Predictive potential of intratumoral and multiregion peritumoral radiomics

This study published in Insights into Imaging highlighted the potential of a multiparametric MRI-based radiomic model that integrated intratumoral and peritumoral features as a tool to predict differentiation in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). The authors found that the IntraPeri model showed an outstanding ability to predict individualized HCC differentiation through integrating intratumoral and optimal peritumoral features. Key points: Article: Multiparametric MRI-based

Predicting microvascular invasion in small (≤ 5 cm) HCC using radiomics-based peritumoral analysis

This study assessed the predictive capacity of CT-enhanced radiomics models when determining microvascular invasion (MVI) for isolated hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). The radiomics model was shown to be a promising noninvasive biomarker for preoperatively predicting MVI in individuals with a solitary HCC ≤ 5 cm and has applications in shaping personalized treatment policies. Key points: Article: Predicting microvascular invasion in small (≤ 5 cm)

Enhancing recurrence risk prediction for bladder cancer using multi-sequence MRI radiomics

This study aimed to develop a radiomics-clinical nomogram using multi-sequence MRI to predict recurrence-free survival (RFS) in patients with bladder cancer (BCa). Using a retrospective cohort of 229 BCa patients, the authors determined that the radiomics-clinical nomogram was able to effectively assess BCa recurrence risk, outperforming both the radiomics model and the clinical model. Key points: Article: Enhancing recurrence risk

CT-based radiomics combined with hematologic parameters for survival prediction

This study aimed to investigate the prognostic significance of radiomics in conjunction with hematological parameters relating to the overall survival (OS) of patients diagnosed with esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) after undergoing definitive chemoradiotherapy (dCRT). Utilizing radiomics and hematologic parameters, the authors were able to develop a prognostic model that enabled the prediction of OS in ESCC patients. This approach

Sharing is Caring – Promoting Radiomics Research Transparency and Sustainability

Radiomics, a rapidly growing and innovative field in medical imaging, extracts detailed features from medical scans that could play a pivotal future adjunct role in patient care. However, the clinical adoption of radiomics is stalled by significant research heterogeneity and reproducibility issues [1]. The complex radiomics pipeline, requiring multidisciplinary expertise, often lacks transparency regarding sharing crucial details like software tools

Evaluating Radiomics Research Reporting Assessment Tools to Improve Quality and Generalizability

As computational capabilities in healthcare continue to advance, the realm of texture analysis within medical imaging, known as radiomics, offers a promising avenue for uncovering novel imaging biomarkers aiding precision medicine [1].Nevertheless, clinical translation faces significant hurdles, primarily stemming from the heterogeneity of research questions and inconsistent quality of radiomics reporting, leading to a scarcity of studies that are comparable,

Predicting tertiary lymphoid structures status of ICC patients using CT radiomics

The authors of this study used preoperative CT radiomics in order to predict the tertiary lymphoid structures (TLSs) status and recurrence-free survival (RFS) of intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (ICC) patients. Enhanced CT images from a total of 116 ICC patients were included when using the radiomics model. The study results showed that the radiomics nomogram displayed better performance in predicting TLSs than

Reproducibility of radiomics quality score: an intra- and inter-rater reliability study

The rapidly evolving field of radiomics research holds the potential to revolutionize medicine by transforming diagnostic images into quantifiable data. Assessing the quality of radiomics research is challenging and requires reliable tools for standardization. Our results, published in European Radiology, have revealed some room for improvement regarding the reproducibility of the widely used Radiomics Quality Score (RQS). We recruited multiple

New radiomics model to predict the Leibovich risk groups for ccRCC patients

This study developed and validated a triphasic CT-based radiomics model, which incorporated radiomics features and significant clinical factors, for preoperative risk stratification of patients with localized clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC). The model showed a favorable performance in preoperatively predicting the Leibovich low-risk and intermediate-high-risk groups in localized ccRCC patients. The authors determined that this model can be used

Radiomics-based prediction of FIGO grade for placenta accreta spectrum

Placenta Accreta Spectrum (PAS) is a serious, life-threatening pregnancy complication. Although rare, as more women are giving birth by Caesarean section, PAS is becoming more common. The most important factor in improving outcomes for mothers and babies is the detection of PAS during pregnancy to ensure the appropriate multi-disciplinary team care is implemented for the pregnancy and birth. However, up
