Radiomics analysis of contrast-enhanced CT for classification of hepatic focal lesions in colorectal cancer patients: its limitations compared to radiologists

European Radiology November 2021

The authors of this retrospective study aimed to evaluate the diagnostic performance of a radiomics model in order to classify hepatic cyst, hemangioma, and metastasis in patients who have been diagnosed with colorectal cancer (CRC) from portal-phase abdominopelvic CT images. The study found that, although inferior to radiologists, the radiomics model was able to achieve substantial diagnostic performance when differentiating

Radiomics approach for survival prediction in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease

Joon Beom Seo June 2021

The idea of quantification of disease severity of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) with CT has been introduced as early as the late 1980s with the so-called ‘density mask’ method for emphysema quantification. Since then, many novel methods of quantification, including the assessment of airway wall thickening, air trapping, vascular change and so on, have been introduced, and many studies

A decade of radiomics research: are images really data or just patterns in the noise?

Daniel Pinto dos Santos January 2021

Radiomics as a research topic in radiology is certainly a promising field. Over the last years, many publications have shown promising results, showing that image analysis using a radiomics approach could potentially help guide clinical decision making by allowing for accurate, non-invasive diagnosis and prognosis. However, despite the large number of publications, we see only little to no translation of

Radiologists with MRI-based radiomics aids to predict the pelvic lymph node metastasis in endometrial cancer: a multicenter study

European Radiology January 2021

The purpose of this study, performed between January 2014 and May 2019 across five different centers, was to construct an MRI radiomics model and help radiologists to improve the preoperative assessments of pelvic lymph node metastasis (PLNM) in endometrial cancer (EC). The authors were able to find that the MRI-based radiomics model could be used to assess the status of

Radiomics risk score may be a potential imaging biomarker for predicting survival in isocitrate dehydrogenase wild-type lower-grade gliomas

European Radiology December 2020

This study aimed to evaluate whether radiomics from magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) would allow for the prediction of the overall survival in patients with isocitrate dehydrogenase wild-type (IDHwt) lower-grade gliomas. The authors of this study also investigated the added prognostic value of radiomics over clinical features. The authors found that radiomics has the potential for noninvasive risk stratification and can

Radiomics nomogram of contrast-enhanced spectral mammography for prediction of axillary lymph node metastasis in breast cancer: a multicenter study

European Radiology October 2020

The aim of this retrospective study was to establish and validate a radiomics nomogram that was based on contrast-enhanced spectral mammography (CESM) for the prediction of axillary lymph node (ALN) metastasis in breast cancer. The authors found that the CESM-based radiomics nomogram showed good application prospects in the preoperative prediction of ALN metastasis in breast cancer. Key points The CESM-based

CT-based radiomics and machine learning to predict spread through air space in lung adenocarcinoma

European Radiology October 2020

The authors of this retrospective study aimed to develop and validate a CT-based radiomics model for preoperative prediction of spread through air space (STAS) in lung adenocarcinoma. They found that a CT-based radiomics model can preoperatively predict, with good diagnosis performance, STAS in lung adenocarcinoma. Key points CT-based radiomics and machine learning model can predict spread through air space (STAS)

Combining molecular and imaging metrics in cancer: radiogenomics

Katja Pinker June 2020

In oncology, we are in the era of personalized medicine that enables increasingly precise, often molecular-based approaches (genomics, transcriptomics, proteomics, metabolomics, etc.) to disease treatments and prevention strategies for our patients. Molecular testing remains expensive, invasive, and time-consuming, and thus unavailable for all patients. In addition, invasive tumor sampling only provides a snap-shot of often heterogeneous tumors and is not

Deep learning for fully automated tumor segmentation and extraction of magnetic resonance radiomics features in cervical cancer

European Radiology June 2020

The purpose of this retrospective study was to develop and evaluate the performance of U-Net to determine whether U-Net-based deep learning could accurately perform fully automated localization and segmentation of cervical tumors in MR images, as well as the robustness of extracting apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) radiomics features. Key points U-Net-based deep learning can perform accurate fully automated localization and

Dual-energy CT–based deep learning radiomics can improve lymph node metastasis risk prediction for gastric cancer

European Radiology March 2020

In this study, the authors aimed to build a dual-energy CT (DECT)-based deep learning radiomics nomogram that could be used for lymph node metastasis prediction in gastric cancer. Ultimately, the DECT-based deep learning radiomics nomogram operated well in predicting lymph node metastasis in gastric cancer. Key points This study investigated the value of deep learning dual-energy CT–based radiomics in predicting
