CT-based radiomics combined with hematologic parameters for survival prediction

Insights into Imaging August 2024

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

Hyun Soo Ko June 2024

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

Hyun Soo Ko April 2024

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

Insights into Imaging April 2024

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

Tugba Akinci D’Antonoli March 2024

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

Insights into Imaging March 2024

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

Helena Bartels February 2024

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

Beyond diagnosis: is there a role for radiomics in prostate cancer management?

Andrea Ponsiglione November 2023

At present, therapeutic and prognostic recommendations for prostate cancer (PCa) predominantly hinge on risk-stratification tools that are built upon clinical parameters. Recent evidence indicates that incorporating imaging can enhance the precision of prognostic models based on clinical factors. However, challenges like subjective interpretation, variability in image analysis, and the absence of reliable quantitative measures need to be overcome to fully

Are deep models in radiomics performing better than generic models?

Aydin Demircioğlu October 2023

In radiomics, deep learning methods are increasingly used because they promise higher predictive performance than models based on generic, hand-crafted features. However, sample sizes in radiomics are often small, and it is known that the performance of deep learning models is often critically dependent on sample size. Therefore, it is unclear whether deep models can outperform generic models. In our

QuantImage v2: physician-centered cloud platform for radiomics and machine learning research

European Radiology Experimental October 2023

The authors of this study proposed a physician-centered vision of radiomics research to help aid the translation of radiomics prediction models into clinical practice and workflow. Free-to-access radiomics tools and frameworks were reviewed to help identify best practices and gaps in the existing software. The authors designed QuantImage V2 (QI2) to help implement this vision and address any issues they
