[PMID: 38992169 PMCID: PMC11239644 DOI: 10.1186/s13244-024-01739-z] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/26/2024] [Accepted: 06/08/2024] [Indexed: 07/13/2024] Open
Abstract
OBJECTIVES This study aimed to assess the predictive value of radiomics derived from intratumoral and peritumoral regions and to develop a radiomics nomogram to predict preoperative nuclear grade and overall survival (OS) in patients with clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC). METHODS The study included 395 patients with ccRCC from our institution. The patients in Center A (anonymous) institution were randomly divided into a training cohort (n = 284) and an internal validation cohort (n = 71). An external validation cohort comprising 40 patients from Center B also was included. Computed tomography (CT) radiomics features were extracted from the internal area of the tumor (IAT) and IAT combined peritumoral areas of the tumor at 3 mm (PAT 3 mm) and 5 mm (PAT 5 mm). Independent predictors from both clinical and radiomics scores (Radscore) were used to construct a radiomics nomogram. Kaplan-Meier analysis with a log-rank test was performed to evaluate the correlation between factors and OS. RESULTS The PAT 5-mm radiomics model (RM) exhibited exceptional predictive capability for grading, achieving an area under the curves of 0.80, 0.80, and 0.90 in the training, internal validation, and external validation cohorts. The nomogram and RM gained from the PAT 5-mm region were more clinically useful than the clinical model. The association between OS and predicted nuclear grade derived from the PAT 5-mm Radscore and the nomogram-predicted score was statistically significant (p < 0.05). CONCLUSION The CT-based radiomics and nomograms showed valuable predictive capabilities for the World Health Organization/International Society of Urological Pathology grade and OS in patients with ccRCC. CRITICAL RELEVANCE STATEMENT The intratumoral and peritumoral radiomics are feasible and promising to predict nuclear grade and overall survival in patients with clear cell renal cell carcinoma, which can contribute to the development of personalized preoperative treatment strategies. KEY POINTS The multi-regional radiomics features are associated with clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC) grading and prognosis. The combination of intratumoral and peritumoral 5 mm regional features demonstrated superior predictive performance for grading. The nomogram and radiomics models have a broad range of clinical applications.

Abstract
Develop a radiomics nomogram that integrates deep learning, radiomics, and clinical variables to predict epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) mutation status in patients with stage I non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). We retrospectively included 438 patients who underwent curative surgery and completed driver-gene mutation tests for stage I NSCLC from four academic medical centers. Predictive models were established by extracting and analyzing radiomic features in intratumoral, peritumoral, and habitat regions of CT images to identify EGFR mutation status in stage I NSCLC. Additionally, three deep learning models based on the intratumoral region were constructed. A nomogram was developed by integrating representative radiomic signatures, deep learning, and clinical features. Model performance was assessed by calculating the area under the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve. The established habitat radiomics features demonstrated encouraging performance in discriminating between EGFR mutant and wild-type, with predictive ability superior to other single models (AUC 0.886, 0.812, and 0.790 for the training, validation, and external test sets, respectively). The radiomics-based nomogram exhibited excellent performance, achieving the highest AUC values of 0.917, 0.837, and 0.809 in the training, validation, and external test sets, respectively. Decision curve analysis (DCA) indicated that the nomogram provided a higher net benefit than other radiomics models, offering valuable information for treatment.

Cardiovasc Intervent Radiol 2024; 47:964-977. [PMID: 38750156 DOI: 10.1007/s00270-024-03730-z] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/22/2023] [Accepted: 04/07/2024] [Indexed: 07/12/2024]
Abstract
PURPOSE To develop a model based on whole-liver radiomics features of pre-treatment enhanced MRI for predicting the prognosis of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) patients undergoing continued transarterial chemoembolization (TACE) after TACE-resistance. MATERIALS AND METHODS Data from 111 TACE-resistant HCC patients between January 2014 and March 2018 were retrospectively collected. At a ratio of 7:3, patients were randomly assigned to developing and validation cohorts. The whole-liver were manually segmented, and the radiomics signature was extracted. The tumor and liver radiomics score (TLrad-score) was calculated. Models were trained by machine learning algorithms and their predictive efficacies were compared. RESULTS Tumor stage, tumor burden, body mass index, alpha-fetoprotein, and vascular invasion were revealed as independent risk factors for survival. The model trained by Random Forest algorithms based on tumor burden, whole-liver radiomics signature, and clinical features had the highest predictive efficacy, with c-index values of 0.85 and 0.80 and areas under the ROC curve of 0.96 and 0.83 in the developing cohort and validation cohort, respectively. In the high-rad-score group (TLrad-score > - 0.34), the median overall survival (mOS) was significantly shorter than in the low-rad-score group (17 m vs. 37 m, p < 0.001). A shorter mOS was observed in patients with high tumor burden compared to those with low tumor burden (14 m vs. 29 m, p = 0.007). CONCLUSION The combined radiomics model from whole-liver signatures may effectively predict survival for HCC patients continuing TACE after TACE refractoriness. The TLrad-score and tumor burden are potential prognostic markers for TACE therapy following TACE-resistance.

Both intra- and peri-tumoral radiomics signatures can be used to predict lymphatic vascular space invasion and lymphatic metastasis positive status from endometrial cancer MR imaging. Abdom Radiol (NY) 2024:10.1007/s00261-024-04432-3. [PMID: 38916618 DOI: 10.1007/s00261-024-04432-3] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/28/2024] [Revised: 05/18/2024] [Accepted: 05/25/2024] [Indexed: 06/26/2024]
Abstract
OBJECTIVES To identify lymphatic vascular space invasion (LVSI) and lymphatic node metastasis (LNM) status of endometrial cancer (EC) patients, using radiomics based on MRI images. METHODS Five hundred and ninety-eight EC patients between January 2015 and September 2020 from two institutions were retrospectively included. Tumoral regions on DWI, T1CE, and T2W images were manually outlined. Radiomics features were extracted from tumor region and peri-tumor region of different thicknesses. We established sub-models to select features from each smaller category. Using this method, we separately constructed radiomic signatures for intra-tumoral and peri-tumoral images using different sequences. We constructed intra-tumoral and peri-tumoral models by combining their features, and a multi-sequence model by combining logits. Models were trained with 397 patients and validated with 170 internal and 31 external patients. RESULTS For LVSI positive/LNM positive status identification, the multi-parameter MRI radiomics model achieved the area under curve (AUC) values of 0.771 (95%CI: [0.692-0.849])/0.801 (95%CI: [0.704, 0.898]) and 0.864 (95%CI: [0.728-1.000])/0.976 (95%CI: [0.919, 1.000]) in internal and external test cohorts, respectively. CONCLUSIONS Intra-tumoral and peri-tumoral radiomics signatures based on mpMRI can both be used to identify LVSI or LNM status in EC patients non-invasively. Further studies on LVSI and LNM should pay attention to both of them.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The axillary lymph-node metastatic burden is closely associated with treatment decisions and prognosis in breast cancer patients. This study aimed to explore the value of 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose (18F-FDG) positron emission tomography (PET)/computed tomography (CT)-based radiomics in combination with ultrasound and clinical pathological features for predicting axillary lymph-node metastatic burden in breast cancer. METHODS A retrospective analysis was conducted and involved 124 patients with pathologically confirmed early-stage breast cancer who had undergone 18F-FDG PET/CT examination. The ultrasound, PET/CT, and clinical pathological features of all patients were analysed, and radiomic features from PET images were extracted to establish a multi-parameter predictive model. RESULTS The ultrasound lymph-node positivity rate and PET lymph-node positivity rate in the high nodal burden group were significantly higher than those in the low nodal burden group (χ2 = 19.867, p < 0.001; χ2 = 33.025, p < 0.001). There was a statistically significant difference in the PET-based radiomics score (RS) for predicting axillary lymph-node burden between the high and low lymph-node burden groups. (-1.04 ± 0.41 vs. -1.47 ± 0.41, t = -4.775, p < 0.001). The ultrasound lymph-node positivity (US_LNM) (odds ratio [OR] = 3.264, 95% confidence interval [CI] = 1.022-10.423), PET lymph-node positivity (PET_LNM) (OR = 14.242, 95% CI = 2.960-68.524), and RS (OR = 5.244, 95% CI = 3.16-20.896) are all independent factors associated with high lymph-node burden (p < 0.05). The area under the curve (AUC) of the multi-parameter (MultiP) model was 0.895, which was superior to those of US_LNM, PET_LNM, and RS models (AUC = 0.703, 0.814, 0.773, respectively), with statistically significant differences (Z = 2.888, 3.208, 3.804, respectively; p = 0.004, 0.002, < 0.001, respectively). Decision curve analysis indicated that the MultiP model provided a higher net benefit for all patients. CONCLUSION A MultiP model based on PET-based radiomics was able to effectively predict axillary lymph-node metastatic burden in breast cancer.

Abstract
AIM To explore the potential of utilising radiomics analysis and machine-learning models that incorporate intratumoural and peritumoural regions of interest (ROIs) for predicting brain metastasis (BM) in newly diagnosed lung cancer patients. MATERIALS AND METHODS The study comprised 183 lung cancer patients (training cohort: n=146; validation cohort: n=37) whose radiomics features were extracted from plain computed tomography (CT) images of the primary lesion. Four machine-learning algorithms (logistic regression [LR], support vector machine [SVM], k-nearest neighbour algorithm [KNN], and random forest [RF]) were employed to develop predictive models. Model diagnostic performance was assessed through receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analysis, and clinical utility was evaluated using decision curve analysis (DCA). Finally, the radiomics model's generalisation ability was further validated in the prediction of metachronous brain metastasis (MBM). RESULTS After feature screening, 22 radiomics features were identified as highly predictive, of which nine were derived from the peritumour region. All four machine-learning models demonstrated predictive capability, with SVM showing superior efficiency and robustness. The area under the ROC curve (AUC) of SVM was 0.918 in the training cohort and 0.901 in the validation cohort. DCA indicated the highest net benefit. Furthermore, the time-dependent ROC curve exhibited predictive efficacy for MBM occurrence across 1-, 2-, and 3-year follow-up periods, with all AUC values exceeding 0.7. CONCLUSION The optimal SVM model integrating intratumoural and peritumoural radiomics features was confirmed and defined as an imaging biomarker for predicting BM in newly diagnosed lung cancer patients, underscoring its potential to significantly impact clinical diagnosis and treatment.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Accurate prediction of visceral pleural invasion (VPI) in lung adenocarcinoma before operation can provide guidance and help for surgical operation and postoperative treatment. We investigate the value of intratumoral and peritumoral radiomics nomograms for preoperatively predicting the status of VPI in patients diagnosed with clinical stage IA lung adenocarcinoma. METHODS A total of 404 patients from our hospital were randomly assigned to a training set (n = 283) and an internal validation set (n = 121) using a 7:3 ratio, while 81 patients from two other hospitals constituted the external validation set. We extracted 1218 CT-based radiomics features from the gross tumor volume (GTV) as well as the gross peritumoral tumor volume (GPTV5, 10, 15), respectively, and constructed radiomic models. Additionally, we developed a nomogram based on relevant CT features and the radscore derived from the optimal radiomics model. RESULTS The GPTV10 radiomics model exhibited superior predictive performance compared to GTV, GPTV5, and GPTV15, with area under the curve (AUC) values of 0.855, 0.842, and 0.842 in the three respective sets. In the clinical model, the solid component size, pleural indentation, solid attachment, and vascular convergence sign were identified as independent risk factors among the CT features. The predictive performance of the nomogram, which incorporated relevant CT features and the GPTV10-radscore, outperformed both the radiomics model and clinical model alone, with AUC values of 0.894, 0.828, and 0.876 in the three respective sets. CONCLUSIONS The nomogram, integrating radiomics features and CT morphological features, exhibits good performance in predicting VPI status in lung adenocarcinoma.

Abstract
BACKGROUND This study aimed to explore the incidence of occult lymph node metastasis (OLM) in clinical T1 - 2N0M0 (cT1 - 2N0M0) small cell lung cancer (SCLC) patients and develop machine learning prediction models using preoperative intratumoral and peritumoral contrast-enhanced CT-based radiomic data. METHODS By conducting a retrospective analysis involving 242 eligible patients from 4 centeres, we determined the incidence of OLM in cT1 - 2N0M0 SCLC patients. For each lesion, two ROIs were defined using the gross tumour volume (GTV) and peritumoral volume 15 mm around the tumour (PTV). By extracting a comprehensive set of 1595 enhanced CT-based radiomic features individually from the GTV and PTV, five models were constucted and we rigorously evaluated the model performance using various metrics, including the area under the curve (AUC), accuracy, sensitivity, specificity, calibration curve, and decision curve analysis (DCA). For enhanced clinical applicability, we formulated a nomogram that integrates clinical parameters and the rad_score (GTV and PTV). RESULTS The initial investigation revealed a 33.9% OLM positivity rate in cT1 - 2N0M0 SCLC patients. Our combined model, which incorporates three radiomic features from the GTV and PTV, along with two clinical parameters (smoking status and shape), exhibited robust predictive capabilities. With a peak AUC value of 0.772 in the external validation cohort, the model outperformed the alternative models. The nomogram significantly enhanced diagnostic precision for radiologists and added substantial value to the clinical decision-making process for cT1 - 2N0M0 SCLC patients. CONCLUSIONS The incidence of OLM in SCLC patients surpassed that in non-small cell lung cancer patients. The combined model demonstrated a notable generalization effect, effectively distinguishing between positive and negative OLMs in a noninvasive manner, thereby guiding individualized clinical decisions for patients with cT1 - 2N0M0 SCLC.

[PMID: 38806374 DOI: 10.1016/j.acra.2024.05.021] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/15/2024] [Revised: 04/27/2024] [Accepted: 05/12/2024] [Indexed: 05/30/2024]
Abstract
RATIONALE AND OBJECTIVES We examined the effectiveness of computed tomography (CT)-based deep learning (DL) models in differentiating benign and malignant solid pulmonary nodules (SPNs) ≤ 8 mm. MATERIALS AND METHODS The study patients (n = 719) were divided into internal training, internal validation, and external validation cohorts; all had small SPNs and had undergone preoperative chest CTs and surgical resection. We developed five DL models incorporating features of the nodule and five different peri-nodular regions with the Multiscale Dual Attention Network (MDANet) to differentiate benign and malignant SPNs. We selected the best-performing model, which was then compared to four conventional algorithms (VGG19, ResNet50, ResNeXt50, and DenseNet121). Furthermore, another five DL models were constructed using MDANet to distinguish benign tumors from inflammatory nodules and the one performed best was selected out. RESULTS Model 4, which incorporated the nodule and 15 mm peri-nodular region, best differentiated benign and malignant SPNs. The model had an area under the curve (AUC), accuracy, recall, precision, and F1-score of 0.730, 0.724, 0.711, 0.705, and 0.707 in the external validation cohort. Model 4 also performed better than the other four conventional algorithms. Model 8, which incorporated the nodule and 10 mm peri-nodular region, was the best model for distinguishing benign tumors from inflammatory nodules. The model had an AUC, accuracy, recall, precision, and F1-score of 0.871, 0.938, 0.863, 0.904, and 0.882 in the external validation cohort. CONCLUSION The study concludes that CT-based DL models built with MDANet can accurately discriminate among small benign and malignant SPNs, benign tumors and inflammatory nodules.

Predictive value of radiomic features extracted from primary lung adenocarcinoma in forecasting thoracic lymph node metastasis: a systematic review and meta-analysis. BMC Pulm Med 2024; 24:246. [PMID: 38762472 PMCID: PMC11102161 DOI: 10.1186/s12890-024-03020-x] [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: 12/19/2023] [Accepted: 04/16/2024] [Indexed: 05/20/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND The application of radiomics in thoracic lymph node metastasis (LNM) of lung adenocarcinoma is increasing, but diagnostic performance of radiomics from primary tumor to predict LNM has not been systematically reviewed. Therefore, this study sought to provide a general overview regarding the methodological quality and diagnostic performance of using radiomic approaches to predict the likelihood of LNM in lung adenocarcinoma. METHODS Studies were gathered from literature databases such as PubMed, Embase, the Web of Science Core Collection, and the Cochrane library. The Radiomic Quality Score (RQS) and the Quality Assessment of Diagnostic Accuracy Studies-2 (QUADAS-2) were both used to assess the quality of each study. The pooled sensitivity, specificity, and area under the curve (AUC) of the best radiomics models in the training and validation cohorts were calculated. Subgroup and meta-regression analyses were also conducted. RESULTS Seventeen studies with 159 to 1202 patients each were enrolled between the years of 2018 to 2022, of which ten studies had sufficient data for the quantitative evaluation. The percentage of RQS was between 11.1% and 44.4% and most of the studies were considered to have a low risk of bias and few applicability concerns in QUADAS-2. Pyradiomics and logistic regression analysis were the most commonly used software and methods for radiomics feature extraction and selection, respectively. In addition, the best prediction models in seventeen studies were mainly based on radiomics features combined with non-radiomics features (semantic features and/or clinical features). The pooled sensitivity, specificity, and AUC of the training cohorts were 0.84 (95% confidence interval (CI) [0.73-0.91]), 0.88 (95% CI [0.81-0.93]), and 0.93(95% CI [0.90-0.95]), respectively. For the validation cohorts, the pooled sensitivity, specificity, and AUC were 0.89 (95% CI [0.82-0.94]), 0.86 (95% CI [0.74-0.93]) and 0.94 (95% CI [0.91-0.96]), respectively. CONCLUSIONS Radiomic features based on the primary tumor have the potential to predict preoperative LNM of lung adenocarcinoma. However, radiomics workflow needs to be standardized to better promote the applicability of radiomics. TRIAL REGISTRATION CRD42022375712.

Abstract
AIM To develop an aggregate model that integrated clinical data, habitat characteristics, and intratumoral and peritumoral features to assess the risk categorization of thymomas. MATERIALS AND METHODS We retrospectively analyzed 140 thymoma patients (70 low-risk and 70 high-risk), including pathological data. The patients were randomly divided into training cohort (n = 114) and test cohort (n = 26). The k-means clustering was utilized to partition the primary tumor into habitats based on intratumoral radiomic features, 6 distinct habitats were identified. By expanding the region of interest (ROI) mask, 2 peritumoral regions were obtained. Finally, 7 clinical characteristics, 3 habitat values, 20 radiomic features were utilized to develop an aggregated model, to predict the risk of thymoma. Shapley additive explanations (SHAP) interpretation was used for features importance ranking. The accuracy and area under curve (AUC) were used to analyze the performance of the models. RESULTS The aggregated model, which utilized the XGBoost classifier, demonstrated the best performance with an AUC of 0.811 and an accuracy of 0.769. In comparison, the radiomic model produced an AUC of 0.654 and an accuracy of 0.692. Additionally, the Intratumoral + peritumoral model exhibited an AUC of 0.728 and an accuracy of 0.769. CONCLUSION Our study establishes a novel tool to predict the risk of thymoma with a good performance. If prospectively validated, the model may refine thymoma patient selection for risk-adaptative therapy and improve prognosis.

Radiomics model based on MRI to differentiate spinal multiple myeloma from metastases: A two-center study. J Bone Oncol 2024; 45:100599. [PMID: 38601920 PMCID: PMC11004638 DOI: 10.1016/j.jbo.2024.100599] [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: 07/02/2023] [Revised: 12/19/2023] [Accepted: 01/09/2024] [Indexed: 04/12/2024] Open
Abstract
Purpose Spinal multiple myeloma (MM) and metastases are two common cancer types with similar imaging characteristics, for which differential diagnosis is needed to ensure precision therapy. The aim of this study is to establish radiomics models for effective differentiation between them. Methods Enrolled in this study were 263 patients from two medical institutions, including 127 with spinal MM and 136 with spinal metastases. Of them, 210 patients from institution I were used as the internal training cohort and 53 patients from Institution II were used as the external validation cohort. Contrast-enhanced T1-weighted imaging (CET1) and T2-weighted imaging (T2WI) sequences were collected and reviewed. Based on the 1037 radiomics features extracted from both CET1 and T2WI images, Logistic Regression (LR), AdaBoost (AB), Support Vector Machines (SVM), Random Forest (RF), and multiple kernel learning based SVM (MKL-SVM) were constructed. Hyper-parameters were tuned by five-fold cross-validation. The diagnostic efficiency among different radiomics models was compared by accuracy (ACC), sensitivity (SEN), specificity (SPE), area under the ROC curve (AUC), YI, positive predictive value (PPV), negative predictive value (NPY), and F1-score. Results Based on single-sequence, the RF model outperformed all other models. All models based on T2WI images performed better than those based on CET1. The efficiency of all models was boosted by incorporating CET1 and T2WI sequences, and the MKL-SVM model achieved the best performance with ACC, AUC, and F1-score of 0.862, 0.870, and 0.874, respectively. Conclusions The radiomics models constructed based on MRI achieved satisfactory diagnostic performance for differentiation of spinal MM and metastases, demonstrating broad application prospects for individualized diagnosis and treatment.

Abstract
The study aims to investigate the value of intratumoral and peritumoral radiomics and clinical-radiological features for predicting spread through air spaces (STAS) in patients with clinical stage IA non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). A total of 336 NSCLC patients from our hospital were randomly divided into the training cohort (n = 236) and the internal validation cohort (n = 100) at a ratio of 7:3, and 69 patients from the other two external hospitals were collected as the external validation cohort. Univariate and multivariate analyses were used to select clinical-radiological features and construct a clinical model. The GTV, PTV5, PTV10, PTV15, PTV20, GPTV5, GPTV10, GPTV15, and GPTV20 models were constructed based on intratumoral and peritumoral (5 mm, 10 mm, 15 mm, 20 mm) radiomics features. Additionally, the radscore of the optimal radiomics model and clinical-radiological predictors were used to construct a combined model and plot a nomogram. Lastly, the ROC curve and AUC value were used to evaluate the diagnostic performance of the model. Tumor density type (OR = 6.738) and distal ribbon sign (OR = 5.141) were independent risk factors for the occurrence of STAS. The GPTV10 model outperformed the other radiomics models, and its AUC values were 0.887, 0.876, and 0.868 in the three cohorts. The AUC values of the combined model constructed based on GPTV10 radscore and clinical-radiological predictors were 0.901, 0.875, and 0.878. DeLong test results revealed that the combined model was superior to the clinical model in the three cohorts. The nomogram based on GPTV10 radscore and clinical-radiological features exhibited high predictive efficiency for STAS status in NSCLC.

Development and validation of a deep learning signature for predicting lymphovascular invasion and survival outcomes in clinical stage IA lung adenocarcinoma: A multicenter retrospective cohort study. Transl Oncol 2024; 42:101894. [PMID: 38324961 PMCID: PMC10851213 DOI: 10.1016/j.tranon.2024.101894] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/28/2023] [Revised: 12/30/2023] [Accepted: 01/24/2024] [Indexed: 02/09/2024] Open
Abstract
PURPOSE The presence of lymphovascular invasion (LVI) influences the management and outcomes of patients with clinical stage IA lung adenocarcinoma. The objective was the development of a deep learning (DL) signature for the prediction of LVI and stratification of prognosis. METHODS A total of 2077 patients from three centers were retrospectively enrolled and divided into a training set (n = 1515), an internal validation set (n = 381), and an external set (n = 181). A -three-dimensional residual neural network was used to extract the DL signature and three models, namely, the clinical, DL, and combined models, were developed. Diagnostic efficiency was assessed by ROC curves and AUC values. Kaplan-Meier curves and Cox proportional hazards regression analyses were conducted to evaluate links between various factors and disease-free survival. RESULTS The DL model could effectively predict LVI, shown by AUC values of 0.72 (95 %CI: 0.68-0.76) and 0.63 (0.54-0.73) in the internal and external validation sets, respectively. The incorporation of DL signature and clinical-radiological factors increased the AUC to 0.74 (0.71-0.78) and 0.77 (0.70-0.84) in comparison with the DL and clinical models (AUC of 0.71 [0.68-0.75], 0.71 [0.61-0.81]) in the internal and external validation sets, respectively. Pathologic LVI, LVI predicted by both DL and combined models were associated with unfavorable prognosis (all p < 0.05). CONCLUSION The effectiveness of the DL signature in the diagnosis of LVI and prognosis prediction in patients with clinical stage IA lung adenocarcinoma was demonstrated. These findings suggest the potential of the model in clinical decision-making.

[PMID: 38517321 DOI: 10.1002/jmri.29359] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/20/2023] [Revised: 03/11/2024] [Accepted: 03/11/2024] [Indexed: 03/23/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND It remains unclear whether extracting peritumoral volume (PTV) radiomics features are useful tools for evaluating response to chemotherapy of epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC). PURPOSE To evaluate MRI radiomics signatures (RS) capturing subtle changes of PTV and their added evaluation performance to whole tumor volume (WTV) for response to chemotherapy in patients with EOC. STUDY TYPE Retrospective. POPULATION 219 patients aged from 15 to 79 years were enrolled. FIELD STRENGTH/SEQUENCE 3.0 or 1.5T, axial fat-suppressed T2-weighted imaging (FS-T2WI), diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI), and contrast enhanced T1-weighted imaging (CE-T1WI). ASSESSMENT MRI features were extracted from the four axial sequences and six different volumes of interest (VOIs) (WTV and WTV + PTV (WPTV)) with different peritumor sizes (PS) ranging from 1 to 5 mm. Those features underwent preprocessing, and the most informative features were selected using minimum redundancy maximum relevance and least absolute shrinkage and selection operator to construct the RS. The optimal RS, with the highest area under the curve (AUC) of receiver operating characteristic was then integrated with independent clinical characteristics through multivariable logistic regression to construct the radiomics-clinical model (RCM). STATISTICAL TESTS Mann-Whitney U test, chi-squared test, DeLong test, log-rank test. P < 0.05 indicated a significant difference. RESULTS All the RSs constructed on WPTV exhibited higher AUCs (0.720-0.756) than WTV (0.671). Of which, RS with PS = 2 mm displayed a significantly better performance (AUC = 0.756). International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics (FIGO) stage was identified as the exclusive independent clinical evaluation characteristic, and the RCM demonstrated higher AUC (0.790) than the RS, but without statistical significance (P = 0.261). DATA CONCLUSION The radiomics features extracted from PTV could increase the efficiency of WTV radiomics for evaluating the chemotherapy response of EOC. The cut-off of 2 mm PTV was a reasonable value to obtain effective evaluation efficiency. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE 4 TECHNICAL EFFICACY: Stage 2.

Abstract
BACKGROUND To investigate the association between Kirsten rat sarcoma viral oncogene homolog (KRAS) / neuroblastoma rat sarcoma viral oncogene homolog (NRAS) /v-raf murine sarcoma viral oncogene homolog B (BRAF) mutations and the tumor habitat-derived radiomic features obtained during pretreatment 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) positron emission tomography (PET) in patients with colorectal cancer (CRC). METHODS We retrospectively enrolled 62 patients with CRC who had undergone 18F-FDG PET/computed tomography from January 2017 to July 2022 before the initiation of therapy. The patients were randomly split into training and validation cohorts with a ratio of 6:4. The whole tumor region radiomic features, habitat-derived radiomic features, and metabolic parameters were extracted from 18F-FDG PET images. After reducing the feature dimension and selecting meaningful features, we constructed a hierarchical model of KRAS/NRAS/BRAF mutations by using the support vector machine. The convergence of the model was evaluated by using learning curve, and its performance was assessed based on the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC), calibration curve, and decision curve analysis. The SHapley Additive exPlanation was used to interpret the contributions of various features to predictions of the model. RESULTS The model constructed by using habitat-derived radiomic features had adequate predictive power with respect to KRAS/NRAS/BRAF mutations, with an AUC of 0.759 (95% CI: 0.585-0.909) on the training cohort and that of 0.701 (95% CI: 0.468-0.916) on the validation cohort. The model exhibited good convergence, suitable calibration, and clinical application value. The results of the SHapley Additive explanation showed that the peritumoral habitat and a high_metabolism habitat had the greatest impact on predictions of the model. No meaningful whole tumor region radiomic features or metabolic parameters were retained during feature selection. CONCLUSION The habitat-derived radiomic features were found to be helpful in stratifying the status of KRAS/NRAS/BRAF in CRC patients. The approach proposed here has significant implications for adjuvant treatment decisions in patients with CRC, and needs to be further validated on a larger prospective cohort.

Abstract
Purpose: To evaluate the value of intra- and peritumoral deep learning (DL) features based on multi-parametric magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) for identifying telomerase reverse transcriptase (TERT) promoter mutation in glioblastoma (GBM). Methods: In this study, we included 229 patients with GBM who underwent preoperative MRI in two hospitals between November 2016 and September 2022. We used four 2D Convolutional Neural Networks (GoogLeNet, DenseNet121, VGG16, and MobileNetV3-Large) to extract intra- and peritumoral DL features. The Mann-Whitney U test, Pearson correlation analysis, least absolute shrinkage and selection operator, and logistic regression analysis were used for feature selection and construction of DL radiomics (DLR) signatures in different regions. These multi-parametric and multi-region signatures were combined to identify TERT promoter mutation. The area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC) was used to evaluate the effects of the signatures. Results: The signatures based on the DL features from the peritumoral regions with expansion distances of 2 mm, 8 mm, and 10 mm using the GoogLeNet architecture correlated with the optimal AUC values (test set: .823, .753, and .768) in the T2-weighted, T1-weighted contrast-enhanced, and T1-weighted images. Using the stacking fusion method, DLR with multi-parameter and multi-region fusion achieved the best discrimination with AUC values of .948 and .902 in the training and test sets, respectively. Conclusions: The radiomics model based on the fusion of multi-parameter MRI intra- and peritumoral DLR signatures may help to identify TERT promoter mutation in patients with GBM.

Abstract
BACKGROUND To investigate whether intratumoral and peritumoral radiomics may predict pathological responses after neoadjuvant chemotherapy against advanced gastric cancer. METHODS Clinical, pathological, and CT data from 231 patients with advanced gastric cancer who underwent neoadjuvant chemotherapy at our hospital between July 2014 and February 2022 were retrospectively collected. Patients were randomly divided into a training group (n = 161) and a validation group (n = 70). The support vector machine classifier was used to establish radiomics models. A clinical model was established based on the selected clinical indicators. Finally, the radiomics and clinical models were combined to generate a radiomics-clinical model. ROC analyses were used to evaluate the prediction efficiency for each model. Calibration curves and decision curves were used to evaluate the optimal model. RESULTS A total of 91 cases were recorded with good response and 140 with poor response. The radiomics model demonstrated that the AUC was higher in the combined model than in the intratumoral and peritumoral models (training group: 0.949, 0.943, and 0.846, respectively; validation group: 0.815, 0.778, and 0.701, respectively). Age, Borrmann classification, and Lauren classification were used to construct the clinical model. Among the radiomics-clinical models, the combined-clinical model showed the highest AUC (training group: 0.960; validation group: 0.843), which significantly improved prediction efficiency. CONCLUSION The peritumoral model provided additional value in the evaluation of pathological response after neoadjuvant chemotherapy against advanced gastric cancer, and the combined-clinical model showed the highest predictive efficiency. CRITICAL RELEVANCE STATEMENT Intratumoral and peritumoral radiomics can noninvasively predict the pathological response against advanced gastric cancer after neoadjuvant chemotherapy to guide early treatment decision and provide individual treatment for patients. KEY POINTS 1. Radiomics can predict pathological responses after neoadjuvant chemotherapy against advanced gastric cancer. 2. Peritumoral radiomics has additional predictive value. 3. Radiomics-clinical models can guide early treatment decisions and improve patient prognosis.

Abstract
RATIONALE AND OBJECTIVES This study aimed to create and verify a nomogram for preoperative prediction of Ki-67 expression in breast malignancy to assist in the development of personalized treatment strategies. MATERIALS AND METHODS This retrospective study received approval from the institutional review board and included a cohort of 197 patients with breast malignancy who were admitted to our hospital. Ki-67 expression was divided into two groups based on a 14% threshold: low and high. A radiomics signature was built utilizing 1702 radiomics features based on an intra- and peritumoral (10 mm) regions of interest. Using multivariate logistic regression, radiomics signature, and ultrasound (US) characteristics, the nomogram was developed. To evaluate the model's calibration, clinical application, and predictive ability, decision curve analysis (DCA), the calibration curve, and the receiver operating characteristic curve were used, respectively. RESULTS The final nomogram included three independent predictors: tumor size (P = .037), radiomics signature (P < .001), and US-reported lymph node status (P = .018). The nomogram exhibited satisfactory performance in the training cohort, demonstrating a specificity of 0.944, a sensitivity of 0.745, and an area under the curve (AUC) of 0.905. The validation cohort recorded a specificity of 0.909, a sensitivity of 0.727, and an AUC of 0.882. The DCA showed the nomogram's clinical utility, and the calibration curve revealed a high consistency among the expected and detected values. CONCLUSION The nomogram used in this investigation can accurately predict Ki-67 expression in people with malignant breast tumors, helping to develop personalized treatment approaches.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The main metastatic route for lung cancer is lymph node metastasis, and studies have shown that non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) has a high risk of lymph node infiltration. OBJECTIVE This study aimed to compare the performance of handcrafted radiomics (HR) features and deep transfer learning (DTL) features in Computed Tomography (CT) of intratumoral and peritumoral regions in predicting the metastatic status of NSCLC lymph nodes in different machine learning classifier models. METHODS We retrospectively collected data of 199 patients with pathologically confirmed NSCLC. All patients were divided into training (n = 159) and validation (n = 40) cohorts, respectively. The best HR and DTL features in the intratumoral and peritumoral regions were extracted and selected, respectively. Support Vector Machine (SVM), k-Nearest Neighbors (KNN), Light Gradient Boosting Machine (Light GBM), Multilayer Perceptron (MLP), and Logistic Regression (LR) models were constructed, and the performance of the models was evaluated. RESULTS Among the five models in the training and validation cohorts, the LR classifier model performed best in terms of HR and DTL features. The AUCs of the training cohort were 0.841 (95% CI: 0.776-0.907) and 0.955 (95% CI: 0.926-0.983), and the AUCs of the validation cohort were 0.812 (95% CI: 0.677-0.948) and 0.893 (95% CI: 0.795-0.991), respectively. The DTL signature was superior to the handcrafted radiomics signature. CONCLUSIONS Compared with the radiomics signature, the DTL signature constructed based on intratumoral and peritumoral areas in CT can better predict NSCLC lymph node metastasis.

Abstract
Radiomics has become a research field that involves the process of converting standard nursing images into quantitative image data, which can be combined with other data sources and subsequently analyzed using traditional biostatistics or artificial intelligence (Al) methods. Due to the capture of biological and pathophysiological information by radiomics features, these quantitative radiomics features have been proven to provide fast and accurate non-invasive biomarkers for lung cancer risk prediction, diagnosis, prognosis, treatment response monitoring, and tumor biology. In this review, radiomics has been emphasized and discussed in lung cancer research, including advantages, challenges, and drawbacks.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To build T2WI-based multiregional radiomics for predicting tumor deposit (TD) and prognosis in patients with resectable rectal cancer. MATERIALS AND METHODS A total of 208 patients with pathologically confirmed rectal cancer from two hospitals were prospectively enrolled. Intra- and peritumoral features were extracted separately from T2WI images and the least absolute shrinkage and selection operator was used to screen the most valuable radiomics features. Clinical-radiomics nomogram was developed by radiomics signatures and the most predictive clinical parameters. Prognostic model for 3-year recurrence-free survival (RFS) was constructed using univariate and multivariate Cox analysis. RESULTS For TD, the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC) for intratumoral radiomics model was 0.956, 0.823, and 0.860 in the training cohort, test cohort, and external validation cohort, respectively. AUC for the peritumoral radiomics model was 0.929, 0.906, and 0.773 in the training cohort, test cohort, and external validation cohort, respectively. The AUC for combined intra- and peritumoral radiomics model was 0.976, 0.918, and 0.874 in the training cohort, test cohort, and external validation cohort, respectively. The AUC for clinical-radiomics nomogram was 0.989, 0.777, and 0.870 in the training cohort, test cohort, and external validation cohort, respectively. The prognostic model constructed by combining intra- and peritumoral radiomics signature score (radscore)-based TD and MRI-reported lymph nodes metastasis (LNM) indicated good performance for predicting 3-year RFS, with AUC of 0.824, 0.865, and 0.738 in the training cohort, test cohort and external validation cohort, respectively. CONCLUSION Combined intra- and peritumoral radiomics model showed good performance for predicting TD. Combining intra- and peritumoral radscore-based TD and MRI-reported LNM indicated the recurrence risk. CLINICAL RELEVANCE STATEMENT Combined intra- and peritumoral radiomics model could help accurately predict tumor deposits. Combining this predictive model-based tumor deposits with MRI-reported lymph node metastasis was associated with relapse risk of rectal cancer after surgery. KEY POINTS • Combined intra- and peritumoral radiomics model provided better diagnostic performance than that of intratumoral and peritumoral radiomics model alone for predicting TD in rectal cancer. • The predictive performance of the clinical-radiomics nomogram was not improved compared with the combined intra- and peritumoral radiomics model for predicting TD. • The prognostic model constructed by combining intra- and peritumoral radscore-based TD and MRI-reported LNM showed good performance for assessing 3-year RFS.

Abstract
PURPOSE To investigate the performance of deep learning and radiomics features of intra-tumoral region (ITR) and peri-tumoral region (PTR) in the diagnosing of breast cancer lung metastasis (BCLM) and primary lung cancer (PLC) with low-dose CT (LDCT). METHODS We retrospectively collected the LDCT images of 100 breast cancer patients with lung lesions, comprising 60 cases of BCLM and 40 cases of PLC. We proposed a fusion model that combined deep learning features extracted from ResNet18-based multi-input residual convolution network with traditional radiomics features. Specifically, the fusion model adopted a multi-region strategy, incorporating the aforementioned features from both the ITR and PTR. Then, we randomly divided the dataset into training and validation sets using fivefold cross-validation approach. Comprehensive comparative experiments were performed between the proposed fusion model and other eight models, including the intra-tumoral deep learning model, the intra-tumoral radiomics model, the intra-tumoral deep-learning radiomics model, the peri-tumoral deep learning model, the peri-tumoral radiomics model, the peri-tumoral deep-learning radiomics model, the multi-region radiomics model, and the multi-region deep-learning model. RESULTS The fusion model developed using deep-learning radiomics feature sets extracted from the ITR and PTR had the best classification performance, with the area under the curve of 0.913 (95% CI 0.840-0.960). This was significantly higher than that of the single region's radiomics model or deep learning model. CONCLUSIONS The combination of radiomics and deep learning features was effective in discriminating BCLM and PLC. Additionally, the analysis of the PTR can mine more comprehensive tumor information.

Abstract
PURPOSE The accurate assessment of axillary lymph node metastasis (LNM) in early-stage breast cancer (BC) is of great importance. This study aimed to construct an integrated model based on clinicopathology, ultrasound, PET/CT, and PET radiomics for predicting axillary LNM in early stage of BC. MATERIALS AND METHODS 124 BC patients who underwent 18 F-fluorodeoxyglucose (18 F-FDG) PET/CT and whose diagnosis were confirmed by surgical pathology were retrospectively analyzed and included in this study. Ultrasound, PET and clinicopathological features of all patients were analyzed, and PET radiomics features were extracted to establish an ultrasound model (clinicopathology and ultrasound; model 1), a PET model (clinicopathology, ultrasound, and PET; model 2), and a comprehensive model (clinicopathology, ultrasound, PET, and radiomics; model 3), and the diagnostic efficacy of each model was evaluated and compared. RESULTS The T stage, US_BIRADS, US_LNM, and PET_LNM in the positive axillary LNM group was significantly higher than that of in the negative LNM group (P = 0.013, P = 0.049, P < 0.001, P < 0.001, respectively). Radiomics score for predicting LNM (RS_LNM) for the negative LNM and positive LNM were statistically significant difference (-1.090 ± 0.448 vs. -0.693 ± 0.344, t = -4.720, P < 0.001), and the AUC was 0.767 (95% CI: 0.674-0.861). The ROC curves showed that model 3 outperformed model 1 for the sensitivity (model 3 vs. model 1, 82.86% vs. 48.57%), and outperformed model 2 for the specificity (model 3 vs. model 2, 82.02% vs. 68.54%) in the prediction of LNM. The AUC of mode 1, model 2 and model 3 was 0.687, 0.826 and 0.874, and the Delong test showed the AUC of model 3 was significantly higher than that of model 1 and model 2 (P < 0.05). Decision curve analysis showed that model 3 resulted in a higher degree of net benefit for all the patients than model 1 and model 2. CONCLUSION The use of a comprehensive model based on clinicopathology, ultrasound, PET/CT, and PET radiomics can effectively improve the diagnostic efficacy of axillary LNM in BC. TRIAL REGISTRATION This study was registered at ClinicalTrials Gov (number NCT05826197) on 7th, May 2023.

Abstract
AIM To develop a novel combined nomogram based on deep-learning-assisted computed tomography (CT) texture (DL-TA) and clinical-radiological features for the preoperative prediction of invasiveness in patients with clinical stage IA lung adenocarcinoma manifesting as part-solid nodules (PSNs). MATERIALS AND METHODS This study was conducted from January 2015 to October 2021 at three centres: 355 patients with 355 PSN lung adenocarcinomas who underwent surgical resection were included and classified into the training (n=222) and validation (n=133) cohorts. PSN segmentation on CT images was performed automatically with a commercial deep-learning algorithm, and CT texture features were extracted. The least absolute shrinkage and selection operator was used for feature selection and transformed into a DL-TA score. The combined nomogram that incorporated the DL-TA score and identified clinical-radiological features was developed for the prediction of pathological invasiveness of the PSNs and validated in terms of discrimination and calibration. RESULTS The present study generated a combined nomogram for predicting the invasiveness of PSNs that included age, consolidation-to-tumour ratio, smoking status, and DL-TA score, with a C-index of 0.851 (95% confidence interval: 0.826-0.877) for the training cohort and 0.854 (95% confidence interval: 0.817-0.891) for the validation cohort, indicating good discrimination. Furthermore, the model had a Brier score of 0.153 for the training cohort and 0.135 for the validation cohort, indicating good calibration. CONCLUSION The developed combined nomogram consisting of the DL-TA score and clinical-radiological features and has the potential to predict the individual risk for the invasiveness of stage IA PSN lung adenocarcinomas.

Abstract
The malignant tumors in nature share some common morphological characteristics. Radiomics is not only images but also data; we think that a probability exists in a set of radiomics signatures extracted from CT scan images of one cancer tumor in one specific organ also be utilized for overall survival prediction in different types of cancers in different organs. The retrospective study enrolled four data sets of cancer patients in three different organs (420, 157, 137, and 191 patients for lung 1 training, lung 2 testing, and two external validation set: kidney and head and neck, respectively). In the training set, radiomics features were obtained from CT scan images, and essential features were chosen by LASSO algorithm. Univariable and multivariable analyses were then conducted to find a radiomics signature via Cox proportional hazard regression. The Kaplan-Meier curve was performed based on the risk score. The integrated time-dependent area under the ROC curve (iAUC) was calculated for each predictive model. In the training set, Kaplan-Meier curve classified patients as high or low-risk groups (p-value < 0.001; log-rank test). The risk score of radiomics signature was locked and independently evaluated in the testing set, and two external validation sets showed significant differences (p-value < 0.05; log-rank test). A combined model (radiomics + clinical) showed improved iAUC in lung 1, lung 2, head and neck, and kidney data set are 0.621 (95% CI 0.588, 0.654), 0.736 (95% CI 0.654, 0.819), 0.732 (95% CI 0.655, 0.809), and 0.834 (95% CI 0.722, 0.946), respectively. We believe that CT-based radiomics signatures for predicting overall survival in various cancer sites may exist.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The diagnosis of sialadenitis, the most frequent disease of the salivary glands, is challenging when the symptoms are mild. In such cases, biomarkers can be used as definitive diagnostic indicators. Recently, biomarkers have been developed by extracting and analyzing pathological and morphological features from medical imaging. This study aimed to establish a diagnostic reference for sialadenitis based on the quantitative magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) biomarker IDEAL-IQ and assess its accuracy. METHODS Patients with sialadenitis (n = 46) and control subjects (n = 90) that underwent MRI were selected. Considering that the IDEAL-IQ value is a sensitive fat fractional marker to the body mass index (BMI), all subjects were also categorized as under-, normal-, and overweight. The fat fraction of parotid gland in the control and sialadenitis groups were obtained using IDEAL-IQ map. The values from the subjects in the control and sialadenitis groups were compared in each BMI category. For comparison, t-tests and receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analyses were performed. RESULTS The IDEAL-IQ fat faction of the control and sialadenitis glands were 38.57% and 23.69%, respectively, and the differences were significant. The values were significantly lower in the sialadenitis group (P), regardless of the BMI types. The area under the ROC curve (AUC) was 0.83 (cut-off value: 28.72) in patients with sialadenitis. The AUC for under-, normal-, and overweight individuals were 0.78, 0.81, and 0.92, respectively. CONCLUSIONS The fat fraction marker based on the IDEAL-IQ method was useful as an objective indicator for diagnosing sialadenitis. This marker would aid less-experienced clinicians in diagnosing sialadenitis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND To establish and validate radiomic models combining intratumoral (Intra) and peritumoral (Peri) features obtained from pretreatment MRI for the prediction of treatment response of lymph node metastasis from nasopharyngeal cancer (NPC). METHODS One hundred forty-five NPC patients (102 in the training and 43 in the validation set) were retrospectively enrolled. Radiomic features were extracted from Intra and Peri regions on the metastatic cervical lymph node, and selected with the least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO). Multivariate logistic regression analysis was applied to build radiomic models. Sensitivity, specificity, accuracy, and the area under the curve (AUC) of receiver operating characteristics were employed to evaluate the predictive power of each model. RESULTS The AUCs of the radiomic model of Intra, Peri, Intra + Peri, and Clinical-radiomic were 0.910, 0.887, 0.934, and 0.941, respectively, in the training set and 0.737, 0.794, 0.774, and 0.783, respectively, in the validation set. There were no significant differences in prediction performance among the radiomic models in the training and validation sets (all P > 0.05). The calibration curve of the radiomic model of Peri demonstrated good agreement between prediction and observation in the training and validation sets. CONCLUSIONS The pretreatment MRI-based radiomics model may be useful in predicting the treatment response of metastatic lymph nodes of NPC. Besides, the generalization ability of the radiomic model of Peri was better than that of Intra and Intra + Peri.

Development and validation of a deep learning signature for predicting lymph node metastasis in lung adenocarcinoma: comparison with radiomics signature and clinical-semantic model. Eur Radiol 2023; 33:1949-1962. [PMID: 36169691 DOI: 10.1007/s00330-022-09153-z] [Citation(s) in RCA: 11] [Impact Index Per Article: 11.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/27/2022] [Revised: 07/23/2022] [Accepted: 09/08/2022] [Indexed: 11/04/2022]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE To develop and validate a deep learning (DL) signature for predicting lymph node (LN) metastasis in patients with lung adenocarcinoma. METHODS A total of 612 patients with pathologically-confirmed lung adenocarcinoma were retrospectively enrolled and were randomly divided into training cohort (n = 489) and internal validation cohort (n = 123). Besides, 108 patients were enrolled and constituted an independent test cohort (n = 108). Patients' clinical characteristics and CT semantic features were collected. The radiomics features were derived from contrast-enhanced CT images. The clinical-semantic model and radiomics signature were built to predict LN metastasis. Furthermore, Swin Transformer was adopted to develop a DL signature predictive of LN metastasis. Model performance was evaluated by area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC), sensitivity, specificity, calibration curve, and decision curve analysis. The comparisons of AUC were conducted by the DeLong test. RESULTS The proposed DL signature yielded an AUC of 0.948-0.961 across all three cohorts, significantly superior to both clinical-semantic model and radiomics signature (all p < 0.05). The calibration curves show that DL signature predicted probabilities fit well the actual observed probabilities of LN metastasis. DL signature gained a higher net benefit than both clinical-semantic model and radiomics signature. The incorporation of radiomics signature or clinical-semantic risk predictors failed to reveal an incremental value over the DL signature. CONCLUSIONS The proposed DL signature based on Swin Transformer achieved a promising performance in predicting LN metastasis and could confer important information in noninvasive mediastinal LN staging and individualized therapeutic options. KEY POINTS • Accurate prediction for lymph node metastasis is crucial to formulate individualized therapeutic options for patients with lung adenocarcinoma. • The deep learning signature yielded an AUC of 0.948-0.961 across all three cohorts in predicting lymph node metastasis, superior to both radiomics signature and clinical-semantic model. • The incorporation of radiomics signature or clinical-semantic risk predictors into deep learning signature failed to reveal an incremental value over deep learning signature.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To investigate whether the tumour-pleura relationship on computed tomography (CT) is a risk factor for occult lymph node metastasis (OLNM) in peripheral clinical stage IA solid adenocarcinoma. METHODS A total of 232 patients were included in the study. The tumour-pleura relationship was divided into four types: type 1, the tumour was unrelated to the pleura; type 2, the tumour was not in contact with the pleura, and one or more linear or striated pleural tags were visible; type 3, the tumour was not in contact with the pleura, and one or more linear or striated pleural tags with soft tissue component at the pleural end were visible; and type 4, the tumour was in contact with the pleura. Univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses were used to identify the predictive factors, including the tumour-pleura relationship, clinical factors, conventional CT findings, and pathology-reported visceral pleural invasion, for OLNM. RESULTS Type 3 and 4 tumour-pleura relationships were more likely to have visceral pleural invasion than type 1 and 2 tumour-pleura relationships (p < 0.001). Univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses revealed that the type 3 or 4 tumour-pleura relationship (OR: 3.261, p = 0.026), carcinoembryonic antigen level (OR: 3.361, p = 0.006), cytokeratin 19 fragments level (OR: 2.539, p = 0.025), and mediastinal window tumour size (OR: 1.078, p = 0.020) were predictive factors for OLNM. CONCLUSIONS The type 3 or 4 tumour-pleura relationship is correlated with a greater risk of OLNM in peripheral clinical stage IA solid adenocarcinoma. KEY POINTS • The tumour-pleura relationship on CT is a risk factor for occult lymph node metastasis in peripheral clinical stage IA solid adenocarcinoma. • Other risk factors for OLNM include CEA level, CYFRA level, and mediastinal window tumour size. • Pathology-reported visceral pleural invasion is not a risk factor for OLNM.

Abstract
AIM To investigate the value of a radiomics nomogram integrating intratumoural and peritumoural features in predicting lymph node metastasis and overall survival (OS) in patients with clinical stage IA non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC). MATERIALS AND METHODS This study retrospectively enrolled 199 patients (training cohort: 71 patients from Affiliated Tumour Hospital of Nantong University; internal validation cohort: 46 patients from Affiliated Tumour Hospital of Nantong University; external validation cohort: 82 patients from the public database). CT radiomics models were constructed based on four volumes of interest: gross tumour volume (GTV), gross and 3 mm peritumoural volume (GPTV3), gross and 6 mm peritumoural volume (GPTV6), and gross and 9 mm peritumoural volume (GPTV9). The optimal radiomics signature was further combined with independent clinical predictors to develop a nomogram. Univariable and multivariable Cox regression analysis were applied to determine the relationship between factors and OS. RESULTS GPTV6 radiomics yielded better performance than GTV, GPTV3, and, GPTV9 radiomics in the training (area under the curve [AUC], 0.81), internal validation (AUC, 0.79), and external validation cohorts (AUC, 0.71), respectively. The nomogram integrating GPTV6 radiomics and spiculation improved predictive ability, with AUCs of 0.85, 0.80, and 0.74 in three cohorts, respectively. Pathological lymph node metastasis, nomogram-predicted lymph node metastasis, and pleural indentation were independent risk predictors of OS (p<0.05). CONCLUSIONS The nomogram integrating GPTV6 radiomics features and independent clinical predictors performed well in predicting lymph node metastasis and prognosis in patients with clinical stage IA NSCLC.

Abstract
AIM To evaluate peritumour radiomics in predicting benign and malignant pulmonary nodules with halo sign. MATERIALS AND METHODS In this retrospective study, 305 pulmonary nodules with halo sign (benign, 120; adenocarcinoma, 185) were collected. Manual segmentation was used to mark the gross tumour volume (GTV) and the peritumour volume (PTV) was established by uniform dilation (1 cm) of the tumour area in three dimensions. The GTV and PTV radiomic features were combined to produce the gross tumour and peritumour volume (GPTV). The minimum-redundancy maximum-relevance (mRMR) feature ranking method and least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) algorithm were used to eliminate redundant radiomic features. Predictive models combined with clinical features and radiomic signatures were established. Multivarible logistic regression analysis was used to establish the combined model and develop a nomogram. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis was used to evaluate the predictive performance of the model. RESULTS In the testing cohort, the area under the ROC curve (AUC) of the GTV, PTV, and GPTV radiomic models was 0.701 (95% CI: 0.589-0.814), 0.674 (95% CI: 0.557-0.791) and 0.755 (95% CI: 0.643-0.867), respectively. The AUC of the nomogram model based on clinical and GPTV radiomic signatures was 0.804 (95% CI: 0.707-0.901). CONCLUSION The nomogram model based on clinical and GPTV radiomic signatures can better predict benign and malignant pulmonary nodules with halo signs, demonstrating that the model has potential as a convenient and effective auxiliary diagnostic tool for radiologists.

Abstract
Lung Adenocarcinoma (LUAD) is a kind of Lung Cancer (LCA) with high incidence rate, which is very harmful to human body. It is hidden in the human body and is not easy to be discovered, so it brings great inconvenience to the treatment of LUAD. Artificial Intelligence (AI) technology provides technical support for the diagnosis and treatment of LUAD and has great application space in intelligent medicine. In this paper, 164 patients with primary LUAD who underwent surgery in Hospital A from January 2020 to December 2021 were selected as the study subjects, and the correlation between the imaging characteristics of LUAD and Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor (EGFR) gene mutation was analyzed. Finally, the conclusion was drawn. In terms of the study on the correlation between EGFR mutation of LUAD and the imaging characteristics of Computed Tomography (CT), it was concluded that there were significant differences between the patient's sex, smoking history, pulmonary nodule morphology and the EGFR gene, and there was no significant difference between the patient's tumor size and EGFR gene; in the study of the relationship between EGFR gene mutation and CT signs of LUAD lesions, it was found that there were significant differences between the symptoms of cavity sign, hair prick sign and chest depression sign and EGFR gene, but there was no significant difference between the symptoms of lobulation sign and EGFR gene; in the study of pathological subtype and EGFR gene mutation status of LUAD patients, it was concluded that the pathological subtype was mainly micropapillary. The mutation rate was 44.44%, which was the highest; in terms of CT manifestations of adjacent structures of lung cancer and the study of EGFR gene mutation status, it was found that there was a statistical difference between the tumor with vascular convergence sign and EGFR gene mutation, and pleural effusion, pericardial effusion, pleural thickening and other signs in tumor imaging were not significantly associated with EGFR gene mutation; in terms of the study of CT manifestations of adjacent structures of LCA and EGFR gene mutation status, it was concluded that pleural effusion, pericardial effusion, pleural thickening and other signs in tumor images were not significantly associated with EGFR gene mutation; in terms of analysis and cure of LUAD, it was concluded that the cure rate of patients was relatively high, and only a few people died of ineffective treatment. This paper provided a reference for the field of intelligent medicine and physical health.

Abstract
Purpose To establish and evaluate multiregional T2-weighted imaging (T2WI)-based clinical-radiomics model for predicting lymph node metastasis (LNM) and prognosis in patients with resectable rectal cancer. Methods A total of 346 patients with pathologically confirmed rectal cancer from two hospitals between January 2019 and December 2021 were prospectively enrolled. Intra- and peritumoral features were extracted separately, and least absolute shrinkage and selection operator regression was applied for feature selection. Radiomics signatures were built using the selected features from different regions. The clinical-radiomic nomogram was developed by combining the intratumoral and peritumoral radiomics signatures score (radscore) and the most predictive clinical parameters. The diagnostic performances of the nomogram and clinical model were evaluated using the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC). The prognostic model for 3-year recurrence-free survival (RFS) was constructed using univariate and multivariate Cox analysis. Results The intratumoral radscore (radscore 1) included four features, the peritumoral radscore (radscore 2) included five features, and the combined intratumoral and peritumoural radscore (radscore 3) included ten features. The AUCs for radscore 3 were higher than that of radscore 1 in training cohort (0.77 vs. 0.71, P=0.182) and internal validation cohort (0.76 vs. 0.64, P=0.041). The AUCs for radscore 3 were higher than that of radscore 2 in training cohort (0.77 vs. 0.74, P=0.215) and internal validation cohort (0.76 vs. 0.68, P=0.083). A clinical-radiomic nomogram showed a higher AUC compared with the clinical model in training cohort (0.84 vs. 0.67, P<0.001) and internal validation cohort (0.78 vs. 0.64, P=0.038) but not in external validation (0.72 vs. 0.76, P=0.164). Multivariate Cox analysis showed MRI-reported extramural vascular invasion (EMVI) (HR=1.099, 95%CI: 0.462-2.616; P=0.031) and clinical-radiomic nomogram-based LNM (HR=2.232, 95%CI:1.238-7.439; P=0.017) were independent risk factors for assessing 3-year RFS. Combined clinical-radiomic nomogram based LNM and MRI-reported EMVI showed good performance in training cohort (AUC=0.748), internal validation cohort (AUC=0.706) and external validation (AUC=0.688) for predicting 3-year RFS. Conclusion A clinical-radiomics nomogram exhibits good performance for predicting preoperative LNM. Combined clinical-radiomic nomogram based LNM and MRI-reported EMVI showed clinical potential for assessing 3-year RFS.

Abstract
Background Nephron sparing nephrectomy may not reduce the prognosis of nephroblastoma in the absence of involvement of the renal capsule, sinus vessels, and lymph nodes, However, there is no accurate preoperative noninvasive evaluation method at present. Materials and methods 105 nephroblastoma patients underwent contrast-enhanced CT scan between 2013 and 2020 in our hospital were retrospectively collected, including 59 cases with localized stage and 46 cases with non-localized stage, and then were divided into training cohort (n= 73) and validation cohort (n= 32) according to the order of CT scanning time. After lesion segmentation and data preprocessing, radiomic features were extracted from each volume of interest. The multi-step procedure including Pearson correlation analysis and sequential forward floating selection was performed to produce radiomic signature. Prediction model was constructed using the radiomic signature and Logistic Regression classifier for predicting the localized nephroblastoma in the training cohort. Finally, the model performance was validated in the validation cohort. Results A total of 1652 radiomic features have been extracted, from which TOP 10 features were selected as the radiomic signature. The area under the receiver operating characteristic curve, accuracy, sensitivity and specificity of the prediction model were 0.796, 0.795, 0.732 and 0.875 for the training cohort respectively, and 0.710, 0.719, 0.611 and 0.857 for the validation cohort respectively. The result comparison with prediction models composed of different machine learning classifiers and different parameters also manifest the effectiveness of our radiomic model. Conclusion A logistic regression model based on radiomic features extracted from preoperative CT images had good ability to noninvasively predict nephroblastoma without renal capsule, sinus vessel, and lymph node involvement.

Radiomics features based on internal and marginal areas of the tumor for the preoperative prediction of microsatellite instability status in colorectal cancer. Front Oncol 2022; 12:1020349. [PMID: 36276101 PMCID: PMC9583004 DOI: 10.3389/fonc.2022.1020349] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/16/2022] [Accepted: 09/20/2022] [Indexed: 11/21/2022] Open
Abstract
Objectives To explore whether the preoperative CT radiomics can predict the status of microsatellite instability (MSI) in colorectal cancer (CRC) patients and identify the region with the most stable and high-efficiency radiomics features. Methods This retrospective study involved 230 CRC patients with preoperative computed tomography scans and available MSI status between December 2019 and October 2021. Image segmentation and radiomic feature extraction were performed as follows. First, slices with the maximum tumor area (region of interest, ROI) were manually contoured. Subsequently, each ROI was shrunk inward by 1, 2, and 3 mm, respectively, where the remaining ROIs were considered as the internal region of the tumor (named as IROI1, IROI2, and IROI3), and the shrunk regions were considered as marginal regions of the tumor (named as MROI1, MROI2, and MROI3). Finally, radiomics features were extracted from each of the ROI. The intraclass correlation coefficient and least absolute shrinkage and selection operator method were used to choose the most reliable and relevant features of MSI status. Clinical, radiomics, and combined clinical radiomics models have been established. Calibration curve and decision curve analyses (DCA) were generated to explore the correction effect and assess the clinical applicability of the above models, respectively. Results In the testing cohort, the radiomics model based on IROI3 yielded the highest average area under the curve (AUC) value of 0.908, compared with the remaining radiomics models. Additionally, hypertension and N stage were considered as clinically independent factors of MSI status. The combined clinical radiomics model achieved excellent diagnostic efficacy (AUC: 0.928; sensitivity: 0.840; specificity: 0.867) in the testing cohort, as well as favorable calibration and clinical utility by calibration curve and DCA analyses. Conclusions The IROI3 model, which is based on a 3-mm shrink in the largest areas of the tumor, could noninvasively reflect the heterogeneity and genetic instability within the tumor. This suggests that it is an important biomarker for the preoperative prediction of MSI status. The model can extract more robust and effective radiomics features, which lays a foundation for the radiomics study of hollow organs, such as in CRC.

[PMID: 36238647 PMCID: PMC9553367 DOI: 10.1155/2022/7261786] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/18/2022] [Revised: 09/07/2022] [Accepted: 09/12/2022] [Indexed: 11/27/2022]
Abstract
Background Early stage hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) has a high recurrence rate after surgery and lacks reliable predictive tools. We explored the potential of combining enhanced CT with gut microbiome to develop a predictive model for recurrence after early HCC surgery. Methods A total of 112 patients with early HCC who underwent hepatectomy from September 2018 to December 2020 were included in this study, and the machine learning method was divided into a training group (N = 71) and a test group (N = 41) with the observed endpoint of recurrence-free survival (RFS). Features were extracted from the arterial and portal phases of enhanced computed tomography (CT) images and gut microbiome, and features with minimum absolute contraction and selection operator regression were created, and the extracted features were scored to create a preoperative prediction model by using the multivariate Cox regression analysis with risk stratification analysis. Results In the study cohort, the model constructed by combining radiological and gut flora features provided good predictive performance (C index, 0.811 (0.650-0.972)). The combined radiology and gut flora-based model constructed risk strata with high, intermediate, or low risk of recurrence and different characteristics of recurrent tumor imaging and gut flora. Recurrence of early stage hepatocellular carcinoma may be associated with oxidative stress in the intestinal flora. Conclusions This study successfully constructs a risk model integrating enhanced CT and gut microbiome characteristics that can be used for the risk of postoperative recurrence in patients with early HCC. In addition, intestinal flora associated with HCC recurrence may be involved in oxidative stress.

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.

Computed tomography-based radiomics quantification predicts epidermal growth factor receptor mutation status and efficacy of first-line targeted therapy in lung adenocarcinoma. Front Oncol 2022; 12:985284. [PMID: 36052262 PMCID: PMC9424619 DOI: 10.3389/fonc.2022.985284] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/03/2022] [Accepted: 07/25/2022] [Indexed: 11/23/2022] Open
Abstract
Background Biomarkers that predict the efficacy of first-line tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) are pivotal in epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) mutant advanced lung adenocarcinoma. Imaging-based biomarkers have attracted much attention in anticancer therapy. This study aims to use the machine learning method to distinguish EGFR mutation status and further explores the predictive role of EGFR mutation-related radiomics features in response to first-line TKIs. Methods We retrospectively analyzed pretreatment CT images and clinical information from a cohort of lung adenocarcinomas. We entered the top-ranked features into a support vector machine (SVM) classifier to establish a radiomics signature that predicted EGFR mutation status. Furthermore, we identified the best response-related features based on EGFR mutant-related features in first-line TKI therapy patients. Then we test and validate the predictive effect of the best response-related features for progression-free survival (PFS). Results Six hundred ninety-two patients were enrolled in building radiomics signatures. The 13 top-ranked features were input into an SVM classifier to establish the radiomics signature of the training cohort (n = 514), and the predictive score of the radiomics signature was assessed on an independent validation group with 178 patients and obtained an area under the curve (AUC) of 74.13%, an F1 score of 68.29%, a specificity of 79.55%, an accuracy of 70.79%, and a sensitivity of 62.22%. More importantly, the skewness-Low (≤0.882) or 10th percentile-Low group (≤21.132) had a superior partial response (PR) rate than the skewness-High or 10th percentile-High group (p < 0.01). Higher skewness (hazard ratio (HR) = 1.722, p = 0.001) was also found to be significantly associated with worse PFS. Conclusions The radiomics signature can be used to predict EGFR mutation status. Skewness may contribute to the stratification of disease progression in lung cancer patients treated with first-line TKIs.

Abstract
The aim of the study described here was to investigate the value of different machine learning models based on the clinical and radiomic features of 2-D ultrasound images to evaluate post-transplant renal function (pTRF). We included 233 patients who underwent ultrasound examination after renal transplantation and divided them into the normal pTRF group (group 1) and the abnormal pTRF group (group 2) based on their estimated glomerular filtration rates. The patients with abnormal pTRF were further subdivided into the non-severe renal function impairment group (group 2A) and the severe impairment group (group 2B). The radiomic features were extracted from the 2-D ultrasound images of each case. The clinical and ultrasound image features as well as radiomic features from the training set were selected, and then five machine learning algorithms were used to construct models for evaluating pTRF. Receiver operating characteristic curves were used to evaluate the discriminatory ability of each model. A total of 19 radiomic features and one clinical feature (age) were retained for discriminating group 1 from group 2. The area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC) values of the models ranged from 0.788 to 0.839 in the test set, and no significant differences were found between the models (all p values >0.05). A total of 17 radiomic features and 1 ultrasound image feature (thickness) were retained for discriminating group 2A from group 2B. The AUC values of the models ranged from 0.689 to 0.772, and no significant differences were found between the models (all p values >0.05). Machine learning models based on clinical and ultrasound image features, as well as radiomics features, from 2-D ultrasound images can be used to evaluate pTRF.

Preoperative CECT-based Radiomic Signature for Predicting the Response of Transarterial Chemoembolization (TACE) Therapy in Hepatocellular Carcinoma. Cardiovasc Intervent Radiol 2022; 45:1524-1533. [PMID: 35896687 DOI: 10.1007/s00270-022-03221-z] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/01/2022] [Accepted: 06/30/2022] [Indexed: 12/24/2022]
Abstract
PURPOSE To evaluate the efficiency of radiomics signatures in predicting the response of transarterial chemoembolization (TACE) therapy based on preoperative contrast-enhanced computed tomography (CECT). MATERIALS This study consisted of 111 patients with intermediate-stage hepatocellular carcinoma who underwent CECT at both the arterial phase (AP) and venous phase (VP) before and after TACE. According to mRECIST 1.1, patients were divided into an objective-response group (n = 38) and a non-response group (n = 73). Among them, 79 patients were assigned as the training dataset, and the remaining 32 cases were assigned as the test dataset. METHODS Radiomics features were extracted from CECT images. Two feature ranking methods and three classifiers were used to find the best single-phase radiomics signatures for both AP and VP on the training set. Meanwhile, multi-phase radiomics signatures were built upon integration of images from two CECT phases by decision-level fusion and feature-level fusion. Finally, multivariable logistic regression was used to develop a nomogram by combining radiomics signatures and clinic-radiologic characteristics. The prediction performance was evaluated by AUC on the test dataset. RESULTS The multi-phase radiomics signature (AUC = 0.883) performed better in predicting TACE therapy response compared to the best single-phase radiomics signature (AUC = 0.861). The nomogram (AUC = 0.913) showed better performance than any radiomics signatures. CONCLUSION The radiomics signatures and nomogram were developed and validated for predicting responses to TACE therapy, and the radiomics model may play a positive role in identifying patients who may benefit from TACE therapy in clinical practice.

Genomics Analysis and Nomogram Risk Prediction of Occult Lymph Node Metastasis in Non-Predominant Micropapillary Component of Lung Adenocarcinoma Measuring ≤ 3 cm. Front Oncol 2022; 12:945997. [PMID: 35912197 PMCID: PMC9326108 DOI: 10.3389/fonc.2022.945997] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/17/2022] [Accepted: 06/21/2022] [Indexed: 11/22/2022] Open
Abstract
Background The efficacy of sublobar resection and selective lymph node dissection is gradually being accepted by thoracic surgeons for patients within early-stage non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Nevertheless, there are still some NSCLC patients develop lymphatic metastasis at clinical T1 stage. Lung adenocarcinoma with a micropapillary (MP) component poses a higher risk of lymph node metastasis and recurrence even when the MP component is not predominant. Our study aimed to explore the genetic features and occult lymph node metastasis (OLNM) risk factors in patients with a non-predominant micropapillary component (NP-MPC) in a large of patient’s cohort with surgically resected lung adenocarcinoma. Methods Between January 2019 and December 2021, 6418 patients who underwent complete resection for primary lung adenocarcinoma at the Qilu Hospital of Shandong University. In our study, 442 patients diagnosed with lung adenocarcinoma with NP-MPC with a tumor size ≤3 cm were included. Genetic alterations were analyzed using amplification refractory mutation system-polymerase chain reaction (ARMS-PCR). Abnormal protein expression of gene mutations was validated using immunohistochemistry. A nomogram risk model based on clinicopathological parameters was developed to predict OLNM. This model was invalidated using the calibration plot and concordance index. Results In our retrospective cohort, the incidence rate of the micropapillary component was 11.17%, and OLNM was observed in 20.13% of the patients in our study. ARMS-PCR suggested that EGFR exon 19 del was the most frequent alteration in NP-MCP patients compared with other gene mutations (frequency: 21.2%, P<0.001). Patients harboring exon 19 del showed significantly higher risk of OLNM (P< 0.001). A nomogram was developed based on five risk parameters, which showed good calibration and reliable discrimination ability (C-index = 0.84) for evaluating OLNM risk. Conclusions. Intense expression of EGFR exon 19 del characterizes lung adenocarcinoma in patients with NP-MCP and it’s a potential risk factor for OLNM. We firstly established a nomogram based on age, CYFRA21-1 level, tumor size, micropapillary and solid composition, that was effective in predicting OLNM among NP-MCP of lung adenocarcinoma measuring ≤ 3 cm.

Differentiation of Cerebral Dissecting Aneurysm from Hemorrhagic Saccular Aneurysm by Machine-Learning Based on Vessel Wall MRI: A Multicenter Study. J Clin Med 2022; 11:jcm11133623. [PMID: 35806913 PMCID: PMC9267569 DOI: 10.3390/jcm11133623] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/19/2022] [Revised: 06/17/2022] [Accepted: 06/20/2022] [Indexed: 02/01/2023] Open
Abstract
The differential diagnosis of a cerebral dissecting aneurysm (DA) and a hemorrhagic saccular aneurysm (SA) often depends on the intraoperative findings; thus, improved non-invasive imaging diagnosis before surgery is essential to distinguish between these two aneurysms, in order to provide the correct formulation of surgical procedure. We aimed to build a radiomic model based on high-resolution vessel wall magnetic resonance imaging (VW-MRI) and a machine-learning algorithm. In total, 851 radiomic features from 146 cases were analyzed retrospectively, and the ElasticNet algorithm was used to establish the radiomic model in a training set of 77 cases. A clinico-radiological model using clinical features and MRI features was also built. Then an integrated model was built by combining the radiomic model and clinico-radiological model. The area under the ROC curve (AUC) was used to quantify the performance of models. The models were evaluated using leave-one-out cross-validation in a training set, and further validated in an external test set of 69 cases. The diagnostic performance of experienced radiologists was also assessed for comparison. Eight features were used to establish the radiomic model, and the radiomic model performs better (AUC = 0.831) than the clinico-radiological model (AUC = 0.717), integrated model (AUC = 0.813), and even experienced radiologists (AUC = 0.801). Therefore, a radiomic model based on VW-MRI can reliably be used to distinguish DA and hemorrhagic SA, and, thus, be widely applied in clinical practice.

Abstract
The spread through air spaces (STAS) is recognized as a negative prognostic factor in patients with early-stage lung adenocarcinoma. The present study aimed to develop a machine learning model for the prediction of STAS using peritumoral radiomics features extracted from preoperative CT imaging. A total of 339 patients who underwent lobectomy or limited resection for lung adenocarcinoma were included. The patients were randomly divided (3:2) into training and test cohorts. Two prediction models were created using the training cohort: a conventional model based on the tumor consolidation/tumor (C/T) ratio and a machine learning model based on peritumoral radiomics features. The areas under the curve for the two models in the testing cohort were 0.70 and 0.76, respectively (P = 0.045). The cumulative incidence of recurrence (CIR) was significantly higher in the STAS high-risk group when using the radiomics model than that in the low-risk group (44% vs. 4% at 5 years; P = 0.002) in patients who underwent limited resection in the testing cohort. In contrast, the 5-year CIR was not significantly different among patients who underwent lobectomy (17% vs. 11%; P = 0.469). In conclusion, the machine learning model for STAS prediction based on peritumoral radiomics features performed better than the C/T ratio model.

Abstract
Objective This study aimed to develop effective artificial intelligence (AI) diagnostic models based on CT images of pulmonary nodules only, on descriptional and quantitative clinical or image features, or on a combination of both to differentiate benign and malignant ground-glass nodules (GGNs) to assist in the determination of surgical intervention. Methods Our study included a total of 867 nodules (benign nodules: 112; malignant nodules: 755) with postoperative pathological diagnoses from two centers. For the diagnostic models to discriminate between benign and malignant GGNs, we adopted three different artificial intelligence (AI) approaches: a) an image-based deep learning approach to build a deep neural network (DNN); b) a clinical feature-based machine learning approach based on the clinical and image features of nodules; c) a fusion diagnostic model integrating the original images and the clinical and image features. The performance of the models was evaluated on an internal test dataset (the “Changzheng Dataset”) and an independent test dataset collected from an external institute (the “Longyan Dataset”). In addition, the performance of automatic diagnostic models was compared with that of manual evaluations by two radiologists on the ‘Longyan dataset’. Results The image-based deep learning model achieved an appealing diagnostic performance, yielding AUC values of 0.75 (95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.62, 0.89) and 0.76 (95% CI: 0.61, 0.90), respectively, on both the Changzheng and Longyan datasets. The clinical feature-based machine learning model performed well on the Changzheng dataset (AUC, 0.80 [95% CI: 0.64, 0.96]), whereas it performed poorly on the Longyan dataset (AUC, 0.62 [95% CI: 0.42, 0.83]). The fusion diagnostic model achieved the best performance on both the Changzheng dataset (AUC, 0.82 [95% CI: 0.71-0.93]) and the Longyan dataset (AUC, 0.83 [95% CI: 0.70-0.96]), and it achieved a better specificity (0.69) than the radiologists (0.33-0.44) on the Longyan dataset. Conclusion The deep learning models, including both the image-based deep learning model and the fusion model, have the ability to assist radiologists in differentiating between benign and malignant nodules for the precise management of patients with GGNs.

Prediction of Two-Year Recurrence-Free Survival in Operable NSCLC Patients Using Radiomic Features from Intra- and Size-Variant Peri-Tumoral Regions on Chest CT Images. Diagnostics (Basel) 2022; 12:diagnostics12061313. [PMID: 35741123 PMCID: PMC9221791 DOI: 10.3390/diagnostics12061313] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/15/2022] [Revised: 05/13/2022] [Accepted: 05/20/2022] [Indexed: 02/04/2023] Open
Abstract
To predict the two-year recurrence-free survival of patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), we propose a prediction model using radiomic features of the inner and outer regions of the tumor. The intratumoral region and the peritumoral regions from the boundary to 3 cm were used to extract the radiomic features based on the intensity, texture, and shape features. Feature selection was performed to identify significant radiomic features to predict two-year recurrence-free survival, and patient classification was performed into recurrence and non-recurrence groups using SVM and random forest classifiers. The probability of two-year recurrence-free survival was estimated with the Kaplan–Meier curve. In the experiment, CT images of 217 non-small-cell lung cancer patients at stages I-IIIA who underwent surgical resection at the Veterans Health Service Medical Center (VHSMC) were used. Regarding the classification performance on whole tumors, the combined radiomic features for intratumoral and peritumoral regions of 6 mm and 9 mm showed improved performance (AUC 0.66, 0.66) compared to T stage and N stage (AUC 0.60), intratumoral (AUC 0.64) and peritumoral 6 mm and 9 mm classifiers (AUC 0.59, 0.62). In the assessment of the classification performance according to the tumor size, combined regions of 21 mm and 3 mm were significant when predicting outcomes compared to other regions of tumors under 3 cm (AUC 0.70) and 3 cm~5 cm (AUC 0.75), respectively. For tumors larger than 5 cm, the combined 3 mm region was significant in predictions compared to the other features (AUC 0.71). Through this experiment, it was confirmed that peritumoral and combined regions showed higher performance than the intratumoral region for tumors less than 5 cm in size and that intratumoral and combined regions showed more stable performance than the peritumoral region in tumors larger than 5 cm.

Abstract
Objectives To build a radiomics model and combined model based on dual-energy CT (DECT) for diagnosing serosal invasion in gastric adenocarcinoma. Materials and methods 231 gastric adenocarcinoma patients were enrolled and randomly divided into a training (n = 132), testing (n = 58), and independent validation (n = 41) cohort. Radiomics features were extracted from the rectangular ROI of the 120-kV equivalent mixed images and iodine map (IM) images in the venous phase of DECT, which was manually delineated perpendicularly to the gastric wall in the deepest location of tumor infiltration, including the peritumoral adipose tissue within 5 mm outside the serosa. The random forest algorithm was used for radiomics model construction. Traditional features were collected by two radiologists. Univariate and multivariate logistic regression was used to construct the clinical model and combined model. The diagnostic efficacy of the models was evaluated using ROC curve analysis and compared using the Delong's test. The calibration curves were used to evaluate the calibration performance of the combined model. Results Both the radiomics model and combined model showed high efficacy in diagnosing serosal invasion in the training, testing and independent validation cohort, with AUC of 0.90, 0.90, and 0.85 for radiomics model; 0.93, 0.93, and 0.89 for combined model. The combined model outperformed the clinical model (AUC: 0.76, 0.76 and 0.81). Conclusion The radiomics model and combined model constructed based on tumoral and peritumoral radiomics features derived from DECT showed high diagnostic efficacy for serosal invasion in gastric adenocarcinoma.

Abstract
Abstract
Purpose. This study aims to develop and validate a multi-view learning method by the combination of primary tumor radiomics and lymph node (LN) radiomics for the preoperative prediction of LN status in gastric cancer (GC). Methods. A total of 170 contrast-enhanced abdominal CT images from GC patients were enrolled in this retrospective study. After data preprocessing, two-step feature selection approach including Pearson correlation analysis and supervised feature selection method based on test-time budget (FSBudget) was performed to remove redundance of tumor and LN radiomics features respectively. Two types of discriminative features were then learned by an unsupervised multi-view partial least squares (UMvPLS) for a latent common space on which a logistic regression classifier is trained. Five repeated random hold-out experiments were employed. Results. On 20-dimensional latent common space, area under receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC), precision, accuracy, recall and F1-score are 0.9531 ± 0.0183, 0.9260 ± 0.0184, 0.9136 ± 0.0174, 0.9468 ± 0.0106 and 0.9362 ± 0.0125 for the training cohort respectively, and 0.8984 ± 0.0536, 0.8671 ± 0.0489, 0.8500 ± 0.0599, 0.9118 ± 0.0550 and 0.8882 ± 0.0440 for the validation cohort respectively (reported as mean ± standard deviation). It shows a better discrimination capability than single-view methods, our previous method, and eight baseline methods. When the dimension was reduced to 2, the model not only has effective prediction performance, but also is convenient for data visualization. Conclusions. Our proposed method by integrating radiomics features of primary tumor and LN can be helpful in predicting lymph node metastasis in patients of GC. It shows multi-view learning has great potential for guiding the prognosis and treatment decision-making in GC.

Abstract
The accurate prediction of glioma grade before surgery is essential for treatment planning and prognosis. Since the gold standard (i.e., biopsy)for grading gliomas is both highly invasive and expensive, and there is a need for a noninvasive and accurate method. In this study, we proposed a novel radiomics-based pipeline by incorporating the intratumoral and peritumoral features extracted from preoperative mpMRI scans to accurately and noninvasively predict glioma grade. To address the unclear peritumoral boundary, we designed an algorithm to capture the peritumoral region with a specified radius. The mpMRI scans of 285 patients derived from a multi-institutional study were adopted. A total of 2153 radiomic features were calculated separately from intratumoral volumes (ITVs)and peritumoral volumes (PTVs)on mpMRI scans, and then refined using LASSO and mRMR feature ranking methods. The top-ranking radiomic features were entered into the classifiers to build radiomic signatures for predicting glioma grade. The prediction performance was evaluated with five-fold cross-validation on a patient-level split. The radiomic signatures utilizing the features of ITV and PTV both show a high accuracy in predicting glioma grade, with AUCs reaching 0.968. By incorporating the features of ITV and PTV, the AUC of IPTV radiomic signature can be increased to 0.975, which outperforms the state-of-the-art methods. Additionally, our proposed method was further demonstrated to have strong generalization performance in an external validation dataset with 65 patients. The source code of our implementation is made publicly available at https://github.com/chengjianhong/glioma_grading.git.
