Abstract
The role of computer vision in extracting radiographic (radiomics) and histopathologic (pathognomics) features is an extension of molecular biomarkers that have been foundational to our understanding across the spectrum of head and neck disorders. Especially within head and neck cancers, machine learning and deep learning applications have yielded advances in the characterization of tumor features, nodal features, and various outcomes. This review aims to overview the landscape of radiomic and pathognomic applications, informing future work to address gaps. Novel methodologies will be needed to potentially engineer ways of integrating multidimensional data inputs to examine disease features to guide prognosis comprehensively and ultimately clinical management.

Effect of fully automatic classification model from different tube voltage images on bone density screening: A self-controlled study. Eur J Radiol 2024; 177:111521. [PMID: 38850722 DOI: 10.1016/j.ejrad.2024.111521] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/12/2023] [Revised: 04/27/2024] [Accepted: 05/19/2024] [Indexed: 06/10/2024]
Abstract
PURPOSE To develop two bone status prediction models combining deep learning and radiomics based on standard-dose chest computed tomography (SDCT) and low-dose chest computed tomography (LDCT), and to evaluate the effect of tube voltage on reproducibility of radiomics features and predictive efficacy of these models. METHODS A total of 1508 patients were enrolled in this retrospective study. LDCT was conducted using 80 kVp, tube current ranging from 100 to 475 mA. On the other hand, SDCT was performed using 120 kVp, tube current ranging from 100 to 520 mA. We developed an automatic thoracic vertebral cancellous bone (TVCB) segmentation model. Subsequently, 1184 features were extracted and two classifiers were developed based on LDCT and SDCT images. Based on the diagnostic results of quantitative computed tomography examination, the first-level classifier was initially developed to distinguish normal or abnormal BMD (including osteoporosis and osteopenia), while the second-level classifier was employed to identify osteoporosis or osteopenia. The Dice coefficient was used to evaluate the performance of the automated segmentation model. The Concordance Correlation Coefficients (CCC) of radiomics features were calculated between LDCT and SDCT, and the performance of these models was evaluated. RESULTS Our automated segmentation model achieved a Dice coefficient of 0.98 ± 0.01 and 0.97 ± 0.02 in LDCT and SDCT, respectively. Alterations in tube voltage decreased the reproducibility of the extracted radiomic features, with 85.05 % of the radiomic features exhibiting low reproducibility (CCC < 0.75). The area under the curve (AUC) using LDCT-based and SDCT-based models was 0.97 ± 0.01 and 0.94 ± 0.02, respectively. Nonetheless, cross-validation with independent test sets of different tube voltage scans suggests that variations in tube voltage can impair the diagnostic efficacy of the model. Consequently, radiomics models are not universally applicable to images of varying tube voltages. In clinical settings, ensuring consistency between the tube voltage of the image used for model development and that of the acquired patient image is critical. CONCLUSIONS Automatic bone status prediction models, utilizing either LDCT or SDCT images, enable accurate assessment of bone status. Tube voltage impacts reproducibility of features and predictive efficacy of models. It is necessary to account for tube voltage variation during the image acquisition.

JOURNAL OF IMAGING INFORMATICS IN MEDICINE 2024; 37:1054-1066. [PMID: 38351221 PMCID: PMC11169408 DOI: 10.1007/s10278-024-01024-x] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/08/2023] [Revised: 01/05/2024] [Accepted: 01/08/2024] [Indexed: 06/13/2024]
Abstract
The aim of this study was to use multimodal imaging (contrast-enhanced T1-weighted (T1C), T2-weighted (T2), and diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI)) to develop a radiomics model for preoperatively predicting venous sinus invasion in meningiomas. This prediction would assist in selecting the appropriate surgical approach and forecasting the prognosis of meningiomas. A retrospective analysis was conducted on 331 participants who had been pathologically diagnosed with meningiomas. For each participant, 3948 radiomics features were acquired from the T1C, T2, and DWI images. Minimum redundancy maximum correlation, rank sum test, and multi-factor recursive elimination were used to extract the most significant features of different models. Then, multivariate logistic regression was used to build classification models to predict meningioma venous sinus invasion. The diagnostic capabilities were assessed using receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analysis. In addition, a nomogram was constructed by incorporating clinical and radiological characteristics and a radiomics signature. To assess the clinical usefulness of the nomogram, a decision curve analysis (DCA) was performed. Tumor shape, boundary, and enhancement features were independent predictors of meningioma venous sinus invasion (p = 0.013, p = 0.013, p = 0.005, respectively). Eleven (T2:1, T1C:4, DWI:6) of the 3948 radiomics features were screened for strong association with meningioma sinus invasion. The areas under the ROC curves for the training and external test sets were 0.946 and 0.874, respectively. The clinicoradiomic model showed excellent predictive performance for invasive meningioma, which may help to guide surgical approaches and predict prognosis.

Abstract
RATIONALE AND OBJECTIVES To develop and validate a radiogenomics model integrating clinical data, radiomics-based machine learning (RBML) classifiers, and transcriptomics data for predicting the response to induction chemotherapy (IC) in patients with head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC). MATERIALS AND METHODS Radiomics features derived from T2-weighted, pre- and post-contrast-enhanced T1-weighted MRI sequences, clinical data, and RNA sequencing data of 150 patients with HNSCC were included in the study. Analysis of variance or recursive feature elimination was used to reduce radiomics features. Three RBML classifiers were developed to distinguish non-responders from responders. Weighted correlation network analysis (WGCNA) was performed to identify the correlation between clinical data or radiomics features and molecular features; subsequently, protein interaction and functional enrichment analyses were performed. The predictive performance of the radiogenomics model integrating significant clinical variables, RBML classifiers, and molecular features was evaluated using receiver operating characteristic curve analysis. RESULTS Five radiomics features and two conventional MRI findings significantly stratified HNSCC patients into responders and non-responders. On WGCNA analysis, 809 genes showed a significant correlation with two radiomics features. Functional enrichment analysis suggested that our proposed radiomics features could reflect the T cell-mediated immune response and immune infiltration of HNSCC. The radiogenomics model showed the highest area under the curve (0.88[95%CI 0.75-0.96]) for predicting IC response, which was better than MRI findings(p = 0.0407) or molecular features(p = 0.004) alone, but showed no significant difference with that of RBML model (p = 0.2254) in test cohort. CONCLUSION Merging imaging phenotypes with transcriptomic data improved the prediction of IC response in HNSCC.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Develop two fully automatic osteoporosis screening systems using deep learning (DL) and radiomics (Rad) techniques based on low-dose chest CT (LDCT) images and evaluate their diagnostic effectiveness. METHODS In total, 434 patients who underwent LDCT and bone mineral density (BMD) examination were retrospectively enrolled and divided into the development set (n = 333) and temporal validation set (n = 101). An automatic thoracic vertebra cancellous bone (TVCB) segmentation model was developed. The Dice similarity coefficient (DSC) was used to evaluate the segmentation performance. Furthermore, the three-class Rad and DL models were developed to distinguish osteoporosis, osteopenia, and normal bone mass. The diagnostic performance of these models was evaluated using the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve and decision curve analysis (DCA). RESULTS The automatic segmentation model achieved excellent segmentation performance, with a mean DSC of 0.96 ± 0.02 in the temporal validation set. The Rad model was used to identify osteoporosis, osteopenia, and normal BMD in the temporal validation set, with respective area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC) values of 0.943, 0.801, and 0.932. The DL model achieved higher AUC values of 0.983, 0.906, and 0.969 for the same categories in the same validation set. The Delong test affirmed that both models performed similarly in BMD assessment. However, the accuracy of the DL model is 81.2%, which is better than the 73.3% accuracy of the Rad model in the temporal validation set. Additionally, DCA indicated that the DL model provided a greater net benefit compared to the Rad model across the majority of the reasonable threshold probabilities Conclusions: The automated segmentation framework we developed can accurately segment cancellous bone on low-dose chest CT images. These predictive models, which are based on deep learning and radiomics, provided comparable diagnostic performance in automatic BMD assessment. Nevertheless, it is important to highlight that the DL model demonstrates higher accuracy and precision than the Rad model.
