Eur J Radiol Open 2024; 12:100548. [PMID: 38298532 PMCID: PMC10827674 DOI: 10.1016/j.ejro.2024.100548] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/09/2023] [Revised: 01/08/2024] [Accepted: 01/11/2024] [Indexed: 02/02/2024] Open
Abstract
Background Kirsten rat sarcoma virus (KRAS) has evolved from a genotype with predictive value to a therapeutic target recently. The study aimed to establish non-invasive radiomics models based on MRI to discriminate KRAS from epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) or anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK) mutations in lung cancer patients with brain metastases (BM), then further explore the optimal sequence for prediction. Methods This retrospective study involved 317 patients (218 patients in training cohort and 99 patients in testing cohort) who had confirmed of KRAS, EGFR or ALK mutations. Radiomics features were separately extracted from T2WI, T2 fluid-attenuated inversion recovery (T2-FLAIR), diffusion weighted imaging (DWI) and contrast-enhanced T1-weighted imaging (T1-CE) sequences. The maximal information coefficient and recursive feature elimination method were used to select informative features. Then we built four radiomics models for differentiating KRAS from EGFR or ALK using random forest classifier. ROC curves were used to validate the capability of the models. Results The four radiomics models for discriminating KRAS from EGFR all worked well, especially DWI and T2WI models (AUCs: 0.942, 0.942 in training cohort, 0.949, 0.954 in testing cohort). When KRAS compared to ALK, DWI and T2-FLAIR models showed excellent performance in two cohorts (AUCs: 0.947, 0.917 in training cohort, 0.850, 0.824 in testing cohort). Conclusions Radiomics classifiers integrating MRI have potential to discriminate KRAS from EGFR or ALK, which are helpful to guide treatment and facilitate the discovery of new approaches capable of achieving this long-sought goal of cure in lung cancer patients with KRAS.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES This study aimed to investigate radiomics based on primary nonsmall-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and distant metastases to predict epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) mutation status. METHODS A total of 290 patients (mean age, 58.21 ± 9.28) diagnosed with brain (BM, n = 150) or spinal bone metastasis (SM, n = 140) from primary NSCLC were enrolled as a primary cohort. An external validation cohort, consisting of 69 patients (mean age, 59.87 ± 7.23; BM, n = 36; SM, n = 33), was enrolled from another center. Thoracic computed tomography-based features were extracted from the primary tumor and peritumoral area and selected using the least absolute shrinkage and selection operator regression to build a radiomic signature (RS-primary). Contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging-based features were calculated and selected from the BM and SM to build RS-BM and RS-SM, respectively. The RS-BM-Com and RS-SM-Com were developed by integrating the most important features from the primary tumor, BM, and SM. RESULTS Six computed tomography-based features showed high association with EGFR mutation status: 3 from intratumoral and 3 from peritumoral areas. By combination of features from primary tumor and metastases, the developed RS-BM-Com and RS-SM-Com performed well with areas under curve in the training (RS-BM-Com vs RS-BM, 0.936 vs 0.885, P = 0.177; RS-SM-Com vs RS-SM, 0.929 vs 0.843, P = 0.003), internal validation (RS-BM-Com vs RS-BM, 0.920 vs 0.858, P = 0.492; RS-SM-Com vs RS-SM, 0.896 vs 0.859, P = 0.379), and external validation (RS-BM-Com vs RS-BM, 0.882 vs 0.805, P = 0.263; RS-SM-Com vs RS-SM, 0.865 vs 0.816, P = 0.312) cohorts. CONCLUSIONS This study indicates that the accuracy of detecting EGFR mutations significantly enhanced in the presence of metastases in primary NSCLC. The established radiomic signatures from this approach may be useful as new predictors for patients with distant metastases.

Tumor-liver interface in MRI of liver metastasis enables prediction of EGFR mutation in patients with lung cancer: A proof-of-concept study. Med Phys 2024; 51:1083-1091. [PMID: 37408393 DOI: 10.1002/mp.16581] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/18/2023] [Revised: 04/19/2023] [Accepted: 06/05/2023] [Indexed: 07/07/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Preoperative prediction of the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) status in non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients with liver metastasis (LM) may have potential clinical values for assisting in treatment decision-making. PURPOSE To explore the value of tumor-liver interface (TLI)-based magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) radiomics for detecting the EGFR mutation in NSCLC patients with LM. METHODS This retrospective study included 123 and 44 patients from hospital 1 (between Feb. 2018 and Dec. 2021) and hospital 2 (between Nov. 2015 and Aug. 2022), respectively. The patients received contrast-enhanced T1-weighted (CET1) and T2-weighted (T2W) liver MRI scans before treatment. Radiomics features were extracted from MRI images of TLI and the whole tumor region, separately. The least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) regression was used to screen the features and establish radiomics signatures (RSs) based on TLI (RS-TLI) and the whole tumor (RS-W). The RSs were evaluated by the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis. RESULTS A total of 5 and 6 features were identified highly correlated with the EGFR mutation status from TLI and the whole tumor, respectively. The RS-TLI showed better prediction performance than RS-W in the training (AUCs, RS-TLI vs. RS-W, 0.842 vs. 0.797), internal validation (AUCs, RS-TLI vs. RS-W, 0.771 vs. 0.676) and external validation (AUCs, RS-TLI vs. RS-W, 0.733 vs. 0.679) cohort. CONCLUSION Our study demonstrated that TLI-based radiomics can improve prediction performance of the EGFR mutation in lung cancer patients with LM. The established multi-parametric MRI radiomics models may be used as new markers that can potentially assist in personalized treatment planning.

Abstract
RATIONALE AND OBJECTIVES Recent advancements in artificial intelligence (AI) render a substantial promise for epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) mutation status prediction in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). We aimed to evaluate the performance and quality of AI algorithms that use radiomics features in predicting EGFR mutation status in patient with NSCLC. MATERIALS AND METHODS We searched PubMed (Medline), EMBASE, Web of Science, and IEEExplore for studies published up to February 28, 2022. Studies utilizing an AI algorithm (either conventional machine learning [cML] and deep learning [DL]) for predicting EGFR mutations in patients with NSLCL were included. We extracted binary diagnostic accuracy data and constructed a bivariate random-effects model to obtain pooled sensitivity, specificity, and 95% confidence interval. This study is registered with PROSPERO, CRD42021278738. RESULTS Our search identified 460 studies, of which 42 were included. Thirty-five studies were included in the meta-analysis. The AI algorithms exhibited an overall area under the curve (AUC) value of 0.789 and pooled sensitivity and specificity levels of 72.2% and 73.3%, respectively. The DL algorithms outperformed cML in terms of AUC (0.822 vs. 0.775) and sensitivity (80.1% vs. 71.1%), but had lower specificity (70.0% vs. 73.8%, p-value < 0.001) compared to cML. Subgroup analysis revealed that the use of positron-emission tomography/computed tomography, additional clinical information, deep feature extraction, and manual segmentation can improve diagnostic performance. CONCLUSION DL algorithms can serve as a novel method for increasing predictive accuracy and thus have considerable potential for use in predicting EGFR mutation status in patient with NSCLC. We also suggest that guidelines on using AI algorithms in medical image analysis should be developed with a focus on oncologic radiomics.

Abstract
The introduction of artificial intelligence (AI) represents an actual revolution in the radiological field, including bone lesion imaging. Bone lesions are often detected both in healthy and oncological patients and the differential diagnosis can be challenging but decisive, because it affects the diagnostic and therapeutic process, especially in case of metastases. Several studies have already demonstrated how the integration of AI-based tools in the current clinical workflow could bring benefits to patients and to healthcare workers. AI technologies could help radiologists in early bone metastases detection, increasing the diagnostic accuracy and reducing the overdiagnosis and the number of unnecessary deeper investigations. In addition, radiomics and radiogenomics approaches could go beyond the qualitative features, visible to the human eyes, extrapolating cancer genomic and behavior information from imaging, in order to plan a targeted and personalized treatment. In this article, we want to provide a comprehensive summary of the most promising AI applications in bone metastasis imaging and their role from diagnosis to treatment and prognosis, including the analysis of future challenges and new perspectives.

Abstract
Lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer deaths among both men and women, representing approximately 25% of cancer fatalities each year. The treatment landscape for non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is rapidly evolving due to the progress made in biomarker-driven targeted therapies. While advancements in targeted treatments have improved survival rates for NSCLC patients with actionable biomarkers, long-term survival remains low, with an overall 5-year relative survival rate below 20%. Artificial intelligence/machine learning (AI/ML) algorithms have shown promise in biomarker discovery, yet NSCLC-specific studies capturing the clinical challenges targeted and emerging patterns identified using AI/ML approaches are lacking. Here, we employed a text-mining approach and identified 215 studies that reported potential biomarkers of NSCLC using AI/ML algorithms. We catalogued these studies with respect to BEST (Biomarkers, EndpointS, and other Tools) biomarker sub-types and summarized emerging patterns and trends in AI/ML-driven NSCLC biomarker discovery. We anticipate that our comprehensive review will contribute to the current understanding of AI/ML advances in NSCLC biomarker research and provide an important catalogue that may facilitate clinical adoption of AI/ML-derived biomarkers.

Abstract
Background Osimertinib resistance is a major problem in the course of targeted therapy for non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients. To develop and validate a multisequence MRI-based radiomics nomogram for early prediction of osimertinib resistance in NSCLC with brain metastases (BM). Methods Pretreatment brain MRI of 251 NSCLC patients proven with BM were retrospectively enrolled from two centers (training cohort: 196 patients; testing cohort: 55 patients). According to the gene test result of osimertinib resistance, patients were labeled as resistance and non-resistance groups (training cohort: 65 versus 131 patients; testing cohort: 25 versus 30 patients). Radiomics features were extracted from T2WI, T2 fluid-attenuated inversion recovery (T2-FLAIR), diffusion weighted imaging (DWI) and contrast-enhanced T1-weighted imaging (T1-CE) sequences separately and radiomics score (rad-score) were built from the four sequences. Then a multisequence MRI-based nomogram was developed and the predictive ability was evaluated by ROC curves and calibration curves. Results The rad-scores of the four sequences has significant differences between resistance and non-resistance groups in both training and testing cohorts. The nomogram achieved the highest predictive ability with area under the curve (AUC) of 0.989 (95 % confidence interval, 0.976-1.000) and 0.923 (95 % confidence interval, 0.851-0.995) in the training and testing cohort respectively. The calibration curves showed excellent concordance between the predicted and actual probability of osimertinib resistance using the radiomics nomogram. Conclusions The multisequence MRI-based radiomics nomogram can be used as a noninvasive auxiliary tool to identify candidates who were resistant to osimertinib, which could guide clinical therapy for NSCLC patients with BM.

Abstract
PURPOSE To develop radiomics models of primary tumour and spinal metastases to predict epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) mutations and therapeutic response to EGFR-tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) in patients with metastatic non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC). METHODS We enrolled 203 patients with spinal metastases between December 2017 and September 2021, classified as patients with the EGFR mutation or EGFR wild-type. All patients underwent thoracic CT and spinal MRI scans before any treatment. Radiomics analysis was performed to extract features from primary tumour and metastases images and identify predictive features with the least absolute shrinkage and selection operator. Radiomics signatures (RS) were constructed based on primary tumour (RS-Pri), metastases (RS-Met), and in combination (RS-Com) to predict EGFR mutation status and response to EGFR-TKI. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis with 10-fold cross-validation was applied to assess the performance of the models. RESULTS To predict the EGFR mutation status, the RS based on the combination of primary tumour and metastases improved the prediction AUCs compared to those based on the primary tumour or metastasis alone in the training (RS-Com-EGFR: 0.927) and validation (RS-Com-EGFR: 0.812) cohorts. To predict response to EGFR-TKI, the developed RS based on combined primary tumour and metastasis generated the highest AUCs in the training (RS-Com-TKI: 0.880) and validation (RS-Com-TKI: 0.798) cohort. CONCLUSIONS Primary NSCLC and spinal metastases can provide complementary information to predict the EGFR mutation status and response to EGFR-TKI. The developed models that integrate primary lesions and metastases may be potential imaging markers to guide individual treatment decisions.

CT-based nomogram for early identification of T790M resistance in metastatic non-small cell lung cancer before first-line epidermal growth factor receptor-tyrosine kinase inhibitors therapy. Eur Radiol Exp 2023; 7:64. [PMID: 37914925 PMCID: PMC10620367 DOI: 10.1186/s41747-023-00380-7] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/18/2023] [Accepted: 08/31/2023] [Indexed: 11/03/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND To evaluate the value of computed tomography (CT) radiomics in predicting the risk of developing epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) T790M resistance mutation for metastatic non-small lung cancer (NSCLC) patients before first-line EGFR-tyrosine kinase inhibitors (EGFR-TKIs) therapy. METHODS A total of 162 metastatic NSCLC patients were recruited and split into training and testing cohort. Radiomics features were extracted from tumor lesions on nonenhanced CT (NECT) and contrast-enhanced CT (CECT). Radiomics score (rad-score) of two CT scans was calculated respectively. A nomogram combining two CT scans was developed to evaluate T790M resistance within up to 14 months. Patients were followed up to calculate the time of T790M occurrence. Models were evaluated by area under the curve at receiver operating characteristic analysis (ROC-AUC), calibration curve, and decision curve analysis (DCA). The association of the nomogram with the time of T790M occurrence was evaluated by Kaplan-Meier survival analysis. RESULTS The nomogram constructed with the rad-score of NECT and CECT for predicting T790M resistance within 14 months achieved the highest ROC-AUCs of 0.828 and 0.853 in training and testing cohorts, respectively. The DCA showed that the nomogram was clinically useful. The Kaplan-Meier analysis showed that the occurrence time of T790M difference between the high- and low-risk groups distinguished by the rad-score was significant (p < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS The CT-based radiomics signature may provide prognostic information and improve pretreatment risk stratification in EGFR NSCLC patients before EGFR-TKIs therapy. The multimodal radiomics nomogram further improved the capability. RELEVANCE STATEMENT Radiomics based on NECT and CECT images can effectively identify and stratify the risk of T790M resistance before the first-line TKIs treatment in metastatic non-small cell lung cancer patients. KEY POINTS • Early identification of the risk of T790M resistance before TKIs treatment is clinically relevant. • Multimodel radiomics nomogram holds potential to be a diagnostic tool. • It provided an imaging surrogate for identifying the pretreatment risk of T790M.

Abstract
RATIONALE AND OBJECTIVES Timely identifying T790M mutation for non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients with brain metastases (BM) is essential to adjust targeted treatment strategies. To develop and validate radiomics models based on multisequence MRI for differentiating patients with T790M resistance from no T790M mutation in BM and explore the optimal sequence for prediction. MATERIALS AND METHODS This retrospective study enrolled 233 patients with proven of BM in NSCLC which included 95 with T790M and 138 without T790M from two hospitals as the training cohort and testing cohort separately. Radiomics features extracted from T2WI, T2 fluid-attenuated inversion recovery (T2-FLAIR), diffusion weighted imaging (DWI) and contrast-enhanced T1-weighted imaging (T1-CE) sequence respectively. The most predictable features were selected based on the maximal information coefficient and Boruta method. Then four radiomics models were built to characterize T790M mutation by random forest classifier. ROC curves, F1 score and DCA curves were constructed to validate the capability and verify the performance of four models. RESULTS The DWI model showed best performance with AUC and F1 score of 0.886 and 0.789 in the training cohort, 0.850 and 0.743 in the testing cohort. DCA curves also showed higher overall net benefit from the DWI model than from the remaining three models in the testing cohort. Other three models also had some classification power whether in the training or testing cohort, especially T2-FLAIR model. CONCLUSION Multisequence MRI-based radiomics has potential to predict the emergence of EGFR T790M resistance mutations especially the radiomics signature based on DWI sequence.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The aims of the study are to explore spinal magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)-based radiomics to differentiate spinal metastases from primary nonsmall cell lung cancer (NSCLC) or breast cancer (BC) and to further predict the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) mutation and Ki-67 expression level. METHODS In total, 268 patients with spinal metastases from primary NSCLC (n = 148) and BC (n = 120) were enrolled between January 2016 and December 2021. All patients underwent spinal contrast-enhanced T1-weighted MRI before treatment. Two- and 3-dimensional radiomics features were extracted from the spinal MRI images of each patient. The least absolute shrinkage and selection operator regression were applied to identify the most important features related to the origin of the metastasis and the EGFR mutation and Ki-67 level. Radiomics signatures (RSs) were established using the selected features and evaluated using receiver operating characteristic curve analysis. RESULTS We identified 6, 5, and 4 features from spinal MRI to develop Ori-RS, EGFR-RS, and Ki-67-RS for predicting the metastatic origin, EGFR mutation, and Ki-67 level, respectively. The 3 RSs performed well in the training (area under the receiver operating characteristic curves: Ori-RS vs EGFR-RS vs Ki-67-RS, 0.890 vs 0.793 vs 0.798) and validation (area under the receiver operating characteristic curves: Ori-RS vs EGFR-RS vs Ki-67-RS, 0.881 vs 0.744 vs 0.738) cohorts. CONCLUSIONS Our study demonstrated the value of spinal MRI-based radiomics for identifying the metastatic origin and evaluating the EGFR mutation status and Ki-67 level in patients with NSCLC and BC, respectively, which may have the potential to guide subsequent individual treatment planning.

Abstract
AIM To explore the utility of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) characteristics and whole-lesion apparent diffusion coefficient histogram analysis of brain metastasis from non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) in the differentiation of epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) mutation status. MATERIALS AND METHODS Forty-eight patients with brain metastases from NSCLC were enrolled in this retrospective study. Patients were subtyped into EGFR mutation (23 cases) and wild-type (25 cases) groups. Whole-lesion histogram metrics were derived from the apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) maps, and imaging features were evaluated according to conventional MRI. Student's t-test or Mann-Whitney U-test, chi-squared test, and receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis were performed to discriminate the two groups and to determine the diagnostic efficacy of ADC histogram parameters. RESULTS EGFR mutation group had more multiple brain metastases, less peritumoural brain oedema (PTBO), and lower peritumoural brain oedema index (PTBO-I) than EGFR wild-type group (all p<0.05). In addition, 90th and 75th percentiles of ADC and maximum ADC in the EGFR mutation group were significantly higher than in the EGFR wild-type group (all p<0.05). Ninetieth percentile of ADC had the highest area under the curve (AUC; 0.711), and it was found to outperform 75th percentile of ADC (AUC, 0.662; p=0.039) and maximum ADC (AUC, 0.681). CONCLUSIONS Whole-lesion ADC histogram analysis and MRI features of brain metastasis from NSCLC are expected to be potential biomarkers to non-invasively differentiate the EGFR mutation status.

Abstract
Purpose To investigate the use of multiparameter MRI-based radiomics in the in-depth prediction of epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) mutation and subtypes based on the spinal metastasis in patients with primary lung adenocarcinoma. Methods A primary cohort was conducted with 257 patients who pathologically confirmed spinal bone metastasis from the first center between Feb. 2016 and Oct. 2020. An external cohort was developed with 42 patients from the second center between Apr. 2017 and Jun. 2021. All patients underwent sagittal T1-weighted imaging (T1W) and sagittal fat-suppressed T2-weight imaging (T2FS) MRI imaging. Radiomics features were extracted and selected to build radiomics signatures (RSs). Machine learning classify with 5-fold cross-validation were used to establish radiomics models for predicting the EGFR mutation and subtypes. Clinical characteristics were analyzed with Mann-Whitney U and Chi-Square tests to identify the most important factors. Nomogram models were developed integrating the RSs and important clinical factors. Results The RSs derived from T1W showed better performance for predicting the EGFR mutation and subtypes compared with those from T2FS in terms of AUC, accuracy and specificity. The nomogram models integrating RSs from combination of the two MRI sequences and important clinical factors achieved the best prediction capabilities in the training (AUCs, EGFR vs. Exon 19 vs. Exon 21, 0.829 vs. 0.885 vs.0.919), internal validation (AUCs, EGFR vs. Exon 19 vs. Exon 21, 0.760 vs. 0.777 vs.0.811), external validation (AUCs, EGFR vs. Exon 19 vs. Exon 21, 0.780 vs. 0.846 vs.0.818). DCA curves indicated potential clinical values of the radiomics models. Conclusions This study indicated potentials of multi-parametric MRI-based radiomics to assess the EGFR mutation and subtypes. The proposed clinical-radiomics nomogram models can be considered as non-invasive tools to assist clinicians in making individual treatment plans.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Preoperative assessment of the acquired resistance T790M mutation in patients with metastatic non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) based on brain metastasis (BM) is important for early treatment decisions. PURPOSE To investigate preoperative magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)-based radiomics for assessing T790M resistance mutation after epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR)-tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) treatment in NSCLC patients with BM. STUDY TYPE Retrospective. POPULATION One hundred and ten primary NSCLC patients with pathologically confirmed BM and T790M mutation status assessment from two centers divided into primary training (N = 53), internal validation (N = 27), and external validation (N = 30) sets. FIELD STRENGTH/SEQUENCE Contrast-enhanced T1-weighted (T1CE) and T2-weighted (T2W) fast spin echo sequences at 3.0 T. ASSESSMENT Forty-five (40.9%) patients were T790M-positive and 65 (59.1%) patients were T790M-negative. The tumor active area (TAA) and peritumoral edema area (POA) of BM were delineated on pre-treatment T1CE and T2W images. Radiomics signatures were built based on features selected from TAA (RS-TAA), POA (RS-POA), and their combination (RS-Com) to assess the T790M resistance mutation after EGFR-TKI treatment. STATISTICAL TESTS Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves were used to assess the capabilities of the developed RSs. The area under the ROC curves (AUC), sensitivity, and specificity were generated as comparison metrics. RESULTS We identified two features (from TAA) and three features (from POA) that are highly associated with the T790M mutation status. The developed RS-TAA, RS-POA, and RS-Com showed good performance, with AUCs of 0.807, 0.807, and 0.864 in the internal validation, and 0.783, 0.814, and 0.860 in the external validation sets, respectively. DATA CONCLUSION Pretreatment brain MRI of NSCLC patients with BM might effectively detect the T790M resistance mutation, with both TAA and POA having important values. The multi-region combined radiomics signature may have potential to be a new biomarker for assessing T790M mutation. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE 3 TECHNICAL EFFICACY: Stage 2.

Abstract
Purpose Multiple myeloma (MM) and metastasis originated are the two common malignancy diseases in the spine. They usually show similar imaging patterns and are highly demanded to differentiate for precision diagnosis and treatment planning. The objective of this study is therefore to construct a novel deep-learning-based method for effective differentiation of two diseases, with the comparative study of traditional radiomics analysis. Methods We retrospectively enrolled a total of 217 patients with 269 lesions, who were diagnosed with spinal MM (79 cases, 81 lesions) or spinal metastases originated from lung cancer (138 cases, 188 lesions) confirmed by postoperative pathology. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) sequences of all patients were collected and reviewed. A novel deep learning model of the Multi-view Attention-Guided Network (MAGN) was constructed based on contrast-enhanced T1WI (CET1) sequences. The constructed model extracts features from three views (sagittal, coronal and axial) and fused them for a more comprehensive differentiation analysis, and the attention guidance strategy is adopted for improving the classification performance, and increasing the interpretability of the method. The diagnostic efficiency among MAGN, radiomics model and the radiologist assessment were compared by the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC). Results Ablation studies were conducted to demonstrate the validity of multi-view fusion and attention guidance strategies: It has shown that the diagnostic model using multi-view fusion achieved higher diagnostic performance [ACC (0.79), AUC (0.77) and F1-score (0.67)] than those using single-view (sagittal, axial and coronal) images. Besides, MAGN incorporating attention guidance strategy further boosted performance as the ACC, AUC and F1-scores reached 0.81, 0.78 and 0.71, respectively. In addition, the MAGN outperforms the radiomics methods and radiologist assessment. The highest ACC, AUC and F1-score for the latter two methods were 0.71, 0.76 & 0.54, and 0.69, 0.71, & 0.65, respectively. Conclusions The proposed MAGN can achieve satisfactory performance in differentiating spinal MM between metastases originating from lung cancer, which also outperforms the radiomics method and radiologist assessment.

Abstract
Background This study aimed to develop and externally validate contrast-enhanced (CE) T1-weighted MRI-based radiomics for the identification of epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) mutation, exon-19 deletion and exon-21 L858R mutation from MR imaging of spinal bone metastasis from primary lung adenocarcinoma. Methods A total of 159 patients from our hospital between January 2017 and September 2021 formed a primary set, and 24 patients from another center between January 2017 and October 2021 formed an independent validation set. Radiomics features were extracted from the CET1 MRI using the Pyradiomics method. The least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) regression was applied for selecting the most predictive features. Radiomics signatures (RSs) were developed based on the primary training set to predict EGFR mutations and differentiate between exon-19 deletion and exon-21 L858R. The RSs were validated on the internal and external validation sets using the Receiver Operating Characteristic (ROC) curve analysis. Results Eight, three, and five most predictive features were selected to build RS-EGFR, RS-19, and RS-21 for predicting EGFR mutation, exon-19 deletion and exon-21 L858R, respectively. The RSs generated favorable prediction efficacies for the primary (AUCs, RS-EGFR vs. RS-19 vs. RS-21, 0.851 vs. 0.816 vs. 0.814) and external validation (AUCs, RS-EGFR vs. RS-19 vs. RS-21, 0.807 vs. 0.742 vs. 0.792) sets. Conclusions Radiomics features from the CE MRI could be used to detect the EGFR mutation, increasing the certainty of identifying exon-19 deletion and exon-21 L858R mutations based on spinal metastasis MR imaging.

Abstract
RATIONALE AND OBJECTIVES The research aims to investigate whether MRI radiomics on hepatic metastasis from primary nonsmall cell lung cancer (NSCLC) can be used to differentiate patients with epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) mutations from those with EGFR wild-type, and develop a prediction model based on combination of primary tumor and the metastasis. MATERIALS AND METHODS A total of 130 patients were enrolled between Aug. 2017 and Dec. 2021, all pathologically confirmed harboring hepatic metastasis from primary NSCLC. The pyradiomics was used to extract radiomics features from intra- and peritumoral areas of both primary tumor and metastasis. The least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) regression was applied to identify most predictive features and to develop radiomics signatures (RSs) for prediction of the EGFR mutation status. The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis was performed to assess the prediction capability of the developed RSs. RESULTS A RS-Primary and a RS-Metastasis were derived from the primary tumor and metastasis, respectively. The RS-Combine by combination of the primary tumor and metastasis achieved the highest prediction performance in the training (AUCs, RS-Primary vs. RS-Metastasis vs. RS-Combine, 0.826 vs. 0.821 vs. 0.908) and testing (AUCs, RS-Primary vs. RS-Metastasis vs. RS-Combine, 0.760 vs. 0.791 vs. 0.884) set. The smoking status showed significant difference between EGFR mutant and wild-type groups (p < 0.05) in the training set. CONCLUSION The study indicates that hepatic metastasis-based radiomics can be used to detect the EGFR mutation. The developed multiorgan combined radiomics signature may be helpful to guide individual treatment strategies for patients with metastatic NSCLC.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Endometrial carcinoma (EC) is one of the most common gynecological malignancies with an increasing incidence, and an accurate preoperative diagnosis of deep myometrial invasion (DMI) is crucial for personalized treatment. OBJECTIVE To determine the predictive value of an MRI-based radiomics nomogram for the presence of DMI in FIGO I stage EC. METHODS We retrospectively collected 163 patients with pathologically confirmed stage I EC from two centers and divided all samples into a training group (center 1) and a validation group (center 2). Clinical and routine imaging indicators were analyzed by logistical regression to construct a conventional diagnostic model (M1). Radiomics features extracted from the axial T2-weighted (T2W) and axial contrast-enhanced T1-weighted (CE-T1W) images were treated with the intraclass correlation coefficient, Mann-Whitney U test, least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO), and logistic regression analysis with Akaike information criterion (AIC) to build a combined radiomics signature (M2). A nomogram (M3) was constructed by M1 and M2. Calibration and decision curves were drawn to evaluate the nomogram in the training and validation cohorts. The diagnostic performance of each indicator and model was evaluated by the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC). RESULT The four most significant radiomics features were finally selected from the CE-T1W MRI. For the diagnosis of DMI, the AUCT /AUCV of M1 was 0.798/0.738, the AUCT /AUCV of M2 was 0.880/0.852, and the AUCT /AUCV of M3 was 0.936/0.871 in the training and validation groups, respectively. The calibration curves showed that M3 was in good agreement with the ideal values. The decision curve analysis suggested potential clinical application values of the nomogram. CONCLUSION A nomogram based on MRI radiomics and clinical imaging indicators can improve the diagnosis of DMI in patients with FIGO I stage EC. This article is protected by copyright.

Development and externally validate MRI-based nomogram to assess EGFR and T790M mutations in patients with metastatic lung adenocarcinoma. Eur Radiol 2022; 32:6739-6751. [PMID: 35729427 DOI: 10.1007/s00330-022-08955-5] [Citation(s) in RCA: 10] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/07/2022] [Revised: 05/20/2022] [Accepted: 06/08/2022] [Indexed: 11/26/2022]
Abstract
OBJECTIVES This study aims to explore values of multi-parametric MRI-based radiomics for detecting the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) mutation and resistance (T790M) mutation in lung adenocarcinoma (LA) patients with spinal metastasis. METHODS This study enrolled a group of 160 LA patients from our hospital (between Jan. 2017 and Feb. 2021) to build a primary cohort. An external cohort was developed with 32 patients from another hospital (between Jan. 2017 and Jan. 2021). All patients underwent spinal MRI (including T1-weighted (T1W) and T2-weighted fat-suppressed (T2FS)) scans. Radiomics features were extracted from the metastasis for each patient and selected to develop radiomics signatures (RSs) for detecting the EGFR and T790M mutations. The clinical-radiomics nomogram models were constructed with RSs and important clinical parameters. The receiver operating characteristics (ROC) curve was used to evaluate the predication capabilities of each model. Calibration and decision curve analyses (DCA) were constructed to verify the performance of the models. RESULTS For detecting the EGFR and T790M mutation, the developed RSs comprised 9 and 4 most important features, respectively. The constructed nomogram models incorporating RSs and smoking status showed favorite prediction efficacy, with AUCs of 0.849 (Sen = 0.685, Spe = 0.885), 0.828 (Sen = 0.964, Spe = 0.692), and 0.778 (Sen = 0.611, Spe = 0.929) in the training, internal validation, and external validation sets for detecting the EGFR mutation, respectively, and with AUCs of 0.0.842 (Sen = 0.750, Spe = 0.867), 0.823 (Sen = 0.667, Spe = 0.938), and 0.800 (Sen = 0.875, Spe = 0.800) in the training, internal validation, and external validation sets for detecting the T790M mutation, respectively. CONCLUSIONS Radiomics features from the spinal metastasis were predictive on both EGFR and T790M mutations. The constructed nomogram models can be potentially considered as new markers to guild treatment management in LA patients with spinal metastasis. KEY POINTS • To our knowledge, this study was the first approach to detect the EGFR T790M mutation based on spinal metastasis in patients with lung adenocarcinoma. • We identified 13 MRI features that were strongly associated with the EGFR T790M mutation. • The proposed nomogram models can be considered as potential new markers for detecting EGFR and T790M mutations based on spinal metastasis.

Abstract
Abstract
Objective. To develop and externally validate habitat-based MRI radiomics for preoperative prediction of the EGFR mutation status based on brain metastasis (BM) from primary lung adenocarcinoma (LA). Approach. We retrospectively reviewed 150 and 38 patients from hospital 1 and hospital 2 between January 2017 and December 2021 to form a primary and an external validation cohort, respectively. Radiomics features were calculated from the whole tumor (W), tumor active area (TAA) and peritumoral oedema area (POA) in the contrast-enhanced T1-weighted (T1CE) and T2-weighted (T2W) MRI image. The least absolute shrinkage and selection operator was applied to select the most important features and to develop radiomics signatures (RSs) based on W (RS-W), TAA (RS-TAA), POA (RS-POA) and in combination (RS-Com). The area under receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC) and accuracy analysis were performed to assess the performance of radiomics models. Main results. RS-TAA and RS-POA outperformed RS-W in terms of AUC, ACC and sensitivity. The multi-region combined RS-Com showed the best prediction performance in the primary validation (AUCs, RS-Com versus RS-W versus RS-TAA versus RS-POA, 0.901 versus 0.699 versus 0.812 versus 0.883) and external validation (AUCs, RS-Com versus RS-W versus RS-TAA versus RS-POA, 0.900 versus 0.637 versus 0.814 versus 0.842) cohort. Significance. The developed habitat-based radiomics models can accurately detect the EGFR mutation in patients with BM from primary LA, and may provide a preoperative basis for personal treatment planning.

Abstract
(1) Background: The purpose of this review is to study the role of radiomics as a supporting tool in predicting bone disease status, differentiating benign from malignant bone lesions, and characterizing malignant bone lesions. (2) Methods: Two reviewers conducted the literature search independently. Thirteen articles on radiomics as a decision support tool for bone lesions were selected. The quality of the methodology was evaluated according to the radiomics quality score (RQS). (3) Results: All studies were published between 2018 and 2021 and were retrospective in design. Eleven (85%) studies were MRI-based, and two (15%) were CT-based. The sample size was <200 patients for all studies. There is significant heterogeneity in the literature, as evidenced by the relatively low RQS value (average score = 22.6%). There is not a homogeneous protocol used for MRI sequences among the different studies, although the highest predictive ability was always obtained in T2W-FS. Six articles (46%) reported on the potential application of the model in a clinical setting with a decision curve analysis (DCA). (4) Conclusions: Despite the variability in the radiomics method application, the similarity of results and conclusions observed is encouraging. Substantial limits were found; prospective and multicentric studies are needed to affirm the role of radiomics as a supporting tool.

Abstract
The present study intended to use radiomic analysis of spinal metastasis subregions to detect epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) mutation. In total, 94 patients with thoracic spinal metastasis originated from primary lung adenocarcinoma (2017-2020) were studied. All patients underwent T1-weighted (T1W) and T2 fat-suppressed (T2FS) MRI scans. The spinal metastases (tumor region) were subdivided into phenotypically consistent subregions based on patient- and population-level clustering: Three subregions, S1, S2 and S3, and the total tumor region. Radiomics features were extracted from each subregion and from the whole tumor region as well. Least shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) regression were used for feature selection and radiomics signature definition. Detection performance of S3 was better than all other regions using T1W (AUCs, S1 versus S2 versus S3 versus whole tumor, 0.720 versus 0.764 versus 0.786 versus 0.758) and T2FS (AUCs, S1 versus S2 versus S3 versus whole tumor, 0.791 versus 0.708 versus 0.838 versus 0.797) MRI. The multi-regional radiomics signature derived from the joint of inner subregion S3 from T1W and T2FS MRI achieved the best detection capabilities with AUCs of 0.879 (ACC = 0.774, SEN = 0.838, SPE = 0.840) and 0.777 (ACC = 0.688, SEN = 0.947, SPE = 0.615) in the training and test sets, respectively. Our study revealed that MRI-based radiomic analysis of spinal metastasis subregions has the potential to detect the EGFR mutation in patients with primary lung adenocarcinoma.
