Abstract
BACKGROUND The molecular profile of gliomas is a prognostic indicator for survival, driving clinical decision-making for treatment. Pathology-based molecular diagnosis is challenging because of the invasiveness of the procedure, exclusion from neoadjuvant therapy options, and the heterogeneous nature of the tumor. PURPOSE We performed a systematic review of algorithms that predict molecular subtypes of gliomas from MR Imaging. DATA SOURCES Data sources were Ovid Embase, Ovid MEDLINE, Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials, Web of Science. STUDY SELECTION Per the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines, 12,318 abstracts were screened and 1323 underwent full-text review, with 85 articles meeting the inclusion criteria. DATA ANALYSIS We compared prediction results from different machine learning approaches for predicting molecular subtypes of gliomas. Bias analysis was conducted for each study, following the Prediction model Risk Of Bias Assessment Tool (PROBAST) guidelines. DATA SYNTHESIS Isocitrate dehydrogenase mutation status was reported with an area under the curve and accuracy of 0.88 and 85% in internal validation and 0.86 and 87% in limited external validation data sets, respectively. For the prediction of O6-methylguanine-DNA methyltransferase promoter methylation, the area under the curve and accuracy in internal validation data sets were 0.79 and 77%, and in limited external validation, 0.89 and 83%, respectively. PROBAST scoring demonstrated high bias in all articles. LIMITATIONS The low number of external validation and studies with incomplete data resulted in unequal data analysis. Comparing the best prediction pipelines of each study may introduce bias. CONCLUSIONS While the high area under the curve and accuracy for the prediction of molecular subtypes of gliomas are reported in internal and external validation data sets, limited use of external validation and the increased risk of bias in all articles may present obstacles for clinical translation of these techniques.

Abstract
PURPOSE Glioblastoma (GBM) is the most common and aggressive malignant glioma, with an overall median survival of less than two years. The ability to predict survival before treatment in GBM patients would lead to improved disease management, clinical trial enrollment, and patient care. METHODS GBM patients (N = 133, mean age 60.8 years, median survival 14.1 months, 57.9% male) were retrospectively recruited from the neurosurgery brain tumor service at Washington University Medical Center. All patients completed structural neuroimaging and resting state functional MRI (RS-fMRI) before surgery. Demographics, measures of cortical thickness (CT), and resting state functional network connectivity (FC) were used to train a deep neural network to classify patients based on survival (< 1y, 1-2y, >2y). Permutation feature importance identified the strongest predictors of survival based on the trained models. RESULTS The models achieved a combined cross-validation and hold out accuracy of 90.6% in classifying survival (< 1y, 1-2y, >2y). The strongest demographic predictors were age at diagnosis and sex. The strongest CT predictors of survival included the superior temporal sulcus, parahippocampal gyrus, pericalcarine, pars triangularis, and middle temporal regions. The strongest FC features primarily involved dorsal and inferior somatomotor, visual, and cingulo-opercular networks. CONCLUSION We demonstrate that machine learning can accurately classify survival in GBM patients based on multimodal neuroimaging before any surgical or medical intervention. These results were achieved without information regarding presentation symptoms, treatments, postsurgical outcomes, or tumor genomic information. Our results suggest GBMs have a global effect on the brain's structural and functional organization, which is predictive of survival.

Deep-learning and conventional radiomics to predict IDH genotyping status based on magnetic resonance imaging data in adult diffuse glioma. Front Oncol 2023; 13:1143688. [PMID: 37711207 PMCID: PMC10499353 DOI: 10.3389/fonc.2023.1143688] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/13/2023] [Accepted: 08/17/2023] [Indexed: 09/16/2023] Open
Abstract
Objectives In adult diffuse glioma, preoperative detection of isocitrate dehydrogenase (IDH) status helps clinicians develop surgical strategies and evaluate patient prognosis. Here, we aim to identify an optimal machine-learning model for prediction of IDH genotyping by combining deep-learning (DL) signatures and conventional radiomics (CR) features as model predictors. Methods In this study, a total of 486 patients with adult diffuse gliomas were retrospectively collected from our medical center (n=268) and the public database (TCGA, n=218). All included patients were randomly divided into the training and validation sets by using nested 10-fold cross-validation. A total of 6,736 CR features were extracted from four MRI modalities in each patient, namely T1WI, T1CE, T2WI, and FLAIR. The LASSO algorithm was performed for CR feature selection. In each MRI modality, we applied a CNN+LSTM-based neural network to extract DL features and integrate these features into a DL signature after the fully connected layer with sigmoid activation. Eight classic machine-learning models were analyzed and compared in terms of their prediction performance and stability in IDH genotyping by combining the LASSO-selected CR features and integrated DL signatures as model predictors. In the validation sets, the prediction performance was evaluated by using accuracy and the area under the curve (AUC) of the receiver operating characteristics, while the model stability was analyzed by using the relative standard deviation of the AUC (RSDAUC). Subgroup analyses of DL signatures and CR features were also individually conducted to explore their independent prediction values. Results Logistic regression (LR) achieved favorable prediction performance (AUC: 0.920 ± 0.043, accuracy: 0.843 ± 0.044), whereas support vector machine with the linear kernel (l-SVM) displayed low prediction performance (AUC: 0.812 ± 0.052, accuracy: 0.821 ± 0.050). With regard to stability, LR also showed high robustness against data perturbation (RSDAUC: 4.7%). Subgroup analyses showed that DL signatures outperformed CR features (DL, AUC: 0.915 ± 0.054, accuracy: 0.835 ± 0.061, RSDAUC: 5.9%; CR, AUC: 0.830 ± 0.066, accuracy: 0.771 ± 0.051, RSDAUC: 8.0%), while DL and DL+CR achieved similar prediction results. Conclusion In IDH genotyping, LR is a promising machine-learning classification model. Compared with CR features, DL signatures exhibit markedly superior prediction values and discriminative capability.

Abstract
(1) Background: Gliomas are the most common primary brain neoplasms accounting for roughly 40−50% of all malignant primary central nervous system tumors. We aim to develop a deep learning-based framework for automated segmentation and prediction of biomarkers and prognosis in patients with gliomas. (2) Methods: In this retrospective two center study, patients were included if they (1) had a diagnosis of glioma with known surgical histopathology and (2) had preoperative MRI with FLAIR sequence. The entire tumor volume including FLAIR hyperintense infiltrative component and necrotic and cystic components was segmented. Deep learning-based U-Net framework was developed based on symmetric architecture from the 512 × 512 segmented maps from FLAIR as the ground truth mask. (3) Results: The final cohort consisted of 208 patients with mean ± standard deviation of age (years) of 56 ± 15 with M/F of 130/78. DSC of the generated mask was 0.93. Prediction for IDH-1 and MGMT status had a performance of AUC 0.88 and 0.62, respectively. Survival prediction of <18 months demonstrated AUC of 0.75. (4) Conclusions: Our deep learning-based framework can detect and segment gliomas with excellent performance for the prediction of IDH-1 biomarker status and survival.

Abstract
Abstract
Radiomics is an advanced image-processing framework, which extracts image features and considers them as biomarkers towards personalized medicine. Applications include disease detection, diagnosis, prognosis, and therapy response assessment/prediction. As radiation therapy aims for further individualized treatments, radiomics could play a critical role in various steps before, during and after treatment. Elucidation of the concept of radiomics-guided radiation therapy (RGRT) is the aim of this review, attempting to highlight opportunities and challenges underlying the use of radiomics to guide clinicians and physicists towards more effective radiation treatments. This work identifies the value of RGRT in various steps of radiotherapy from patient selection to follow-up, and subsequently provides recommendations to improve future radiotherapy using quantitative imaging features.

Abstract
Glioblastoma, as the most aggressive brain tumor, is associated with a poor prognosis and outcome. To optimize prognosis and clinical therapy decisions, there is an urgent need to stratify patients with increased risk for recurrent tumors and low therapeutic success to optimize individual treatment. Radiogenomics establishes a link between radiological and pathological information. This review provides a state-of-the-art picture illustrating the latest developments in the use of radiogenomic markers regarding prognosis and their potential for monitoring recurrence. Databases PubMed, Google Scholar, and Cochrane Library were searched. Inclusion criteria were defined as diagnosis of glioblastoma with histopathological and radiological follow-up. Out of 321 reviewed articles, 43 articles met these inclusion criteria. Included studies were analyzed for the frequency of radiological and molecular tumor markers whereby radiogenomic associations were analyzed. Six main associations were described: radiogenomic prognosis, MGMT status, IDH, EGFR status, molecular subgroups, and tumor location. Prospective studies analyzing prognostic features of glioblastoma together with radiological features are lacking. By reviewing the progress in the development of radiogenomic markers, we provide insights into the potential efficacy of such an approach for clinical routine use eventually enabling early identification of glioblastoma recurrence and therefore supporting a further personalized monitoring and treatment strategy.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
The landscape of glioma research has evolved in the past 20 years to include numerous large, multi-institutional, database efforts compiling either clinical data on glioma patients, molecular data on glioma specimens, or a combination of both. While these strategies can provide a wealth of information for glioma research, obtaining information regarding data availability and access specifications can be challenging.
Methods
We reviewed the literature for ongoing clinical, molecular, and combined database efforts related to glioma research to provide researchers with a curated overview of the current state of glioma database resources.
Results
We identified and reviewed a total of 20 databases with data collection spanning from 1975 to 2022. Surveyed databases included both low- and high-grade gliomas, and data elements included over 100 clinical variables and 12 molecular data types. Select database strengths included large sample sizes and a wide variety of variables available, while limitations of some databases included complex data access requirements and a lack of glioma-specific variables.
Conclusions
This review highlights current databases and registries and their potential utility in clinical and genomic glioma research. While many high-quality resources exist, the fluid nature of glioma taxonomy makes it difficult to isolate a large cohort of patients with a pathologically confirmed diagnosis. Large, well-defined, and publicly available glioma datasets have the potential to expand the reach of glioma research and drive the field forward.

Abstract
Imaging diagnosis is crucial for early detection and monitoring of brain tumors. Radiomics enable the extraction of a large mass of quantitative features from complex clinical imaging arrays, and then transform them into high-dimensional data which can subsequently be mined to find their relevance with the tumor's histological features, which reflect underlying genetic mutations and malignancy, along with grade, progression, therapeutic effect, or even overall survival (OS). Compared to traditional brain imaging, radiomics provides quantitative information linked to meaningful biologic characteristics and application of deep learning which sheds light on the full automation of imaging diagnosis. Recent studies have shown that radiomics' application is broad in identifying primary tumor, differential diagnosis, grading, evaluation of mutation status and aggression, prediction of treatment response and recurrence in pituitary tumors, gliomas, and brain metastases. In this descriptive review, besides establishing a general understanding among protocols, results, and clinical significance of these studies, we further discuss the current limitations along with future development of radiomics.

Abstract
Objectives Phosphatase and tensin homolog (PTEN) mutation is an indicator of poor prognosis of low-grade and high-grade glioma. This study built a reliable model from multi-parametric magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) for predicting the PTEN mutation status in patients with glioma. Methods In this study, a total of 244 patients with glioma were retrospectively collected from our center (n = 77) and The Cancer Imaging Archive (n = 167). All patients were randomly divided into a training set (n = 170) and a validation set (n = 74). Three models were built from preoperative MRI for predicting PTEN status, including a radiomics model, a convolutional neural network (CNN) model, and an integrated model based on both radiomics and CNN features. The performance of each model was evaluated by accuracy and the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC). Results The CNN model achieved an AUC of 0.84 and an accuracy of 0.81, which performed better than did the radiomics model, with an AUC of 0.83 and an accuracy of 0.66. Combining radiomics with CNN will further benefit the predictive performance (accuracy = 0.86, AUC = 0.91). Conclusions The combination of both the CNN and radiomics features achieved significantly higher performance in predicting the mutation status of PTEN in patients with glioma than did the radiomics or the CNN model alone.

Abstract
A novel radiological research field pursuing comprehensive quantitative image, namely “Radiomics,” gained traction along with the advancement of computational technology and artificial intelligence. This novel concept for analyzing medical images brought extensive interest to the neuro-oncology and neuroradiology research community to build a diagnostic workflow to detect clinically relevant genetic alteration of gliomas noninvasively. Although quite a few promising results were published regarding MRI-based diagnosis of isocitrate dehydrogenase (IDH) mutation in gliomas, it has become clear that an ample amount of effort is still needed to render this technology clinically applicable. At the same time, many significant insights were discovered through this research project, some of which could be “reverse engineered” to improve conventional non-radiomic MR image acquisition. In this review article, the authors aim to discuss the recent advancements and encountering issues of radiomics, how we can apply the knowledge provided by radiomics to standard clinical images, and further expected technological advances in the realm of radiomics and glioma.

Abstract
Cancer is the second leading cause of human death globally. PI3K/Akt/mTOR signaling is one of the most frequently dysregulated signaling pathways observed in cancer patients that plays crucial roles in promoting tumor initiation, progression and therapy responses. This is largely due to that PI3K/Akt/mTOR signaling is indispensable for many cellular biological processes, including cell growth, metastasis, survival, metabolism, and others. As such, small molecule inhibitors targeting major kinase components of the PI3K/Akt/mTOR signaling pathway have drawn extensive attention and been developed and evaluated in preclinical models and clinical trials. Targeting a single kinase component within this signaling usually causes growth arrest rather than apoptosis associated with toxicity-induced adverse effects in patients. Combination therapies including PI3K/Akt/mTOR inhibitors show improved patient response and clinical outcome, albeit developed resistance has been reported. In this review, we focus on revealing the mechanisms leading to the hyperactivation of PI3K/Akt/mTOR signaling in cancer and summarizing efforts for developing PI3K/Akt/mTOR inhibitors as either mono-therapy or combination therapy in different cancer settings. We hope that this review will facilitate further understanding of the regulatory mechanisms governing dysregulation of PI3K/Akt/mTOR oncogenic signaling in cancer and provide insights into possible future directions for targeted therapeutic regimen for cancer treatment, by developing new agents, drug delivery systems, or combination regimen to target the PI3K/Akt/mTOR signaling pathway. This information will also provide effective patient stratification strategy to improve the patient response and clinical outcome for cancer patients with deregulated PI3K/Akt/mTOR signaling.

Accuracy of Machine Learning Algorithms for the Classification of Molecular Features of Gliomas on MRI: A Systematic Literature Review and Meta-Analysis. Cancers (Basel) 2021; 13:cancers13112606.

Abstract
Simple Summary Glioma prognosis and treatment are based on histopathological characteristics and molecular profile. Following the World Health Organization (WHO) guidelines (2016), the most important molecular diagnostic markers include IDH1/2-genotype and 1p/19q codeletion status, although more recent publications also include ARTX genotype and TERT- and MGMT promoter methylation. Machine learning algorithms (MLAs), however, were described to successfully determine these molecular characteristics non-invasively by using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) data. The aim of this review and meta-analysis was to define the diagnostic accuracy of MLAs with regard to these different molecular markers. We found high accuracies of MLAs to predict each individual molecular marker, with IDH1/2-genotype being the most investigated and the most accurate. Radiogenomics could therefore be a promising tool for discriminating genetically determined gliomas in a non-invasive fashion. Although encouraging results are presented here, large-scale, prospective trials with external validation groups are warranted. Abstract Treatment planning and prognosis in glioma treatment are based on the classification into low- and high-grade oligodendroglioma or astrocytoma, which is mainly based on molecular characteristics (IDH1/2- and 1p/19q codeletion status). It would be of great value if this classification could be made reliably before surgery, without biopsy. Machine learning algorithms (MLAs) could play a role in achieving this by enabling glioma characterization on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) data without invasive tissue sampling. The aim of this study is to provide a performance evaluation and meta-analysis of various MLAs for glioma characterization. Systematic literature search and meta-analysis were performed on the aggregated data, after which subgroup analyses for several target conditions were conducted. This study is registered with PROSPERO, CRD42020191033. We identified 724 studies; 60 and 17 studies were eligible to be included in the systematic review and meta-analysis, respectively. Meta-analysis showed excellent accuracy for all subgroups, with the classification of 1p/19q codeletion status scoring significantly poorer than other subgroups (AUC: 0.748, p = 0.132). There was considerable heterogeneity among some of the included studies. Although promising results were found with regard to the ability of MLA-tools to be used for the non-invasive classification of gliomas, large-scale, prospective trials with external validation are warranted in the future.

Abstract
Glioma is the most common primary intraparenchymal tumor of the brain and the 5-year survival rate of high-grade glioma is poor. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is essential for detecting, characterizing and monitoring brain tumors but definitive diagnosis still relies on surgical pathology. Machine learning has been applied to the analysis of MRI data in glioma research and has the potential to change clinical practice and improve patient outcomes. This systematic review synthesizes and analyzes the current state of machine learning applications to glioma MRI data and explores the use of machine learning for systematic review automation. Various datapoints were extracted from the 153 studies that met inclusion criteria and analyzed. Natural language processing (NLP) analysis involved keyword extraction, topic modeling and document classification. Machine learning has been applied to tumor grading and diagnosis, tumor segmentation, non-invasive genomic biomarker identification, detection of progression and patient survival prediction. Model performance was generally strong (AUC = 0.87 ± 0.09; sensitivity = 0.87 ± 0.10; specificity = 0.0.86 ± 0.10; precision = 0.88 ± 0.11). Convolutional neural network, support vector machine and random forest algorithms were top performers. Deep learning document classifiers yielded acceptable performance (mean 5-fold cross-validation AUC = 0.71). Machine learning tools and data resources were synthesized and summarized to facilitate future research. Machine learning has been widely applied to the processing of MRI data in glioma research and has demonstrated substantial utility. NLP and transfer learning resources enabled the successful development of a replicable method for automating the systematic review article screening process, which has potential for shortening the time from discovery to clinical application in medicine.

Abstract
Background Early identification of glioma molecular phenotypes can lead to understanding of patient prognosis and treatment guidance. We aimed to develop a multiparametric MRI texture analysis model using a combination of conventional and diffusion MRI to predict a wide range of biomarkers in patients with glioma. Methods In this retrospective study, patients were included if they (1) had diagnosis of gliomas with known IDH1, EGFR, MGMT, ATRX, TP53, and PTEN status from surgical pathology and (2) had preoperative MRI including FLAIR, T1c+ and diffusion for radiomic texture analysis. Statistical analysis included logistic regression and receiver-operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis to determine the optimal model for predicting glioma biomarkers. A comparative analysis between ROCs (conventional only vs conventional + diffusion) was performed. Results From a total of 111 patients included, 91 (82%) were categorized to training and 20 (18%) to test datasets. Constructed cross-validated model using a combination of texture features from conventional and diffusion MRI resulted in overall AUC/accuracy of 1/79% for IDH1, 0.99/80% for ATRX, 0.79/67% for MGMT, and 0.77/66% for EGFR. The addition of diffusion data to conventional MRI features significantly (P < .05) increased predictive performance for IDH1, MGMT, and ATRX. The overall accuracy of the final model in predicting biomarkers in the test group was 80% (IDH1), 70% (ATRX), 70% (MGMT), and 75% (EGFR). Conclusion Addition of MR diffusion to conventional MRI features provides added diagnostic value in preoperative determination of IDH1, MGMT, and ATRX in patients with glioma.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Molecular characterization of glioma has implications for prognosis, treatment planning, and prediction of treatment response. Current histopathology is limited by intratumoral heterogeneity and variability in detection methods. Advances in computational techniques have led to interest in mining quantitative imaging features to noninvasively detect genetic mutations. OBJECTIVE To evaluate the diagnostic accuracy of machine learning (ML) models in molecular subtyping gliomas on preoperative magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). METHODS A systematic search was performed following PRISMA (Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analysis) guidelines to identify studies up to April 1, 2020. Methodological quality of studies was assessed using the Quality Assessment for Diagnostic Accuracy Studies (QUADAS)-2. Diagnostic performance estimates were obtained using a bivariate model and heterogeneity was explored using metaregression. RESULTS Forty-four original articles were included. The pooled sensitivity and specificity for predicting isocitrate dehydrogenase (IDH) mutation in training datasets were 0.88 (95% CI 0.83-0.91) and 0.86 (95% CI 0.79-0.91), respectively, and 0.83 to 0.85 in validation sets. Use of data augmentation and MRI sequence type were weakly associated with heterogeneity. Both O6-methylguanine-DNA methyltransferase (MGMT) gene promoter methylation and 1p/19q codeletion could be predicted with a pooled sensitivity and specificity between 0.76 and 0.83 in training datasets. CONCLUSION ML application to preoperative MRI demonstrated promising results for predicting IDH mutation, MGMT methylation, and 1p/19q codeletion in glioma. Optimized ML models could lead to a noninvasive, objective tool that captures molecular information important for clinical decision making. Future studies should use multicenter data, external validation and investigate clinical feasibility of ML models.

Abstract
Purpose Craniopharyngiomas (CPs) are benign tumors, complete tumor resection is considered to be the optimal treatment. However, although histologically benign, the local invasiveness of CPs commonly contributes to incomplete resection and a poor prognosis. At present, some advocate less aggressive surgery combined with radiotherapy as a more reasonable and effective means of protecting hypothalamus function and preventing recurrence in patients with tight tumor adhesion to the hypothalamus. Hence, if a method can be developed to predict the invasiveness of CP preoperatively, it will help in the development of a more personalized surgical strategy. The aim of the study was to report a radiomics-clinical nomogram for the individualized preoperative prediction of the invasiveness of adamantinomatous CP (ACPs) before surgery. Methods In total, 1,874 radiomics features were extracted from whole tumors on contrast-enhanced T1-weighted images. A support vector machine trained a predictive model that was validated using receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analysis on an independent test set. Moreover, a nomogram was constructed incorporating clinical characteristics and the radiomics signature for individual prediction. Results Eleven features associated with the invasiveness of ACPs were selected by using the least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) method. These features yielded area under the curve (AUC) values of 79.09 and 73.5% for the training and test sets, respectively. The nomogram incorporating peritumoral edema and the radiomics signature yielded good calibration in the training and test sets with the AUCs of 84.79 and 76.48%, respectively. Conclusion The developed model yields good performance, indicating that the invasiveness of APCs can be predicted using noninvasive radiological data. This reliable, noninvasive tool can help clinical decision making and improve patient prognosis.

Abstract
Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is a noninvasive imaging tool for neuroradiological diagnosis. Numerous concepts of automated MRI analysis and the use of machine learning have been proposed to assist diagnosis and prognosis. While these academic innovations have proven effective in principle within controlled environments, their application to clinical practice has faced unmet requirements, such as the ability to perform reliably across a heterogeneous population, to work robustly in the presence of comorbidities, and to be invariant to scanner hardware and image quality. The lack of realistic confidence bounds and the inability to handle missing data have also reduced the application of most of these methods outside of academic studies. Mastering the complex challenges in the diagnostic process may help researchers discover novel biological constructs in multimodal data and improve stratification for clinical trials, paving the way for precision medicine. This review presents the state of the art of computerized brain MRI analysis for diagnostic purposes. We critically evaluate the current clinical usefulness of the methods and highlight challenges and future perspectives of the field.
