Eur Radiol 2024:10.1007/s00330-024-10921-2. [PMID: 38990325 DOI: 10.1007/s00330-024-10921-2] [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: 11/27/2023] [Revised: 04/24/2024] [Accepted: 05/19/2024] [Indexed: 07/12/2024]
Abstract
OBJECTIVES This study aimed to establish a hematoma expansion (HE) prediction model for hypertensive intracerebral hemorrhage (HICH) patients by combining CT radiomics, clinical information, and conventional imaging signs. METHODS A retrospective continuous collection of HICH patients from three medical centers was divided into a training set (n = 555), a validation set (n = 239), and a test set (n = 77). Extract radiomics features from baseline CT plain scan images and combine them with clinical information and conventional imaging signs to construct radiomics models, clinical imaging sign models, and hybrid models, respectively. The models will be evaluated using the area under the curve (AUC), clinical decision curve analysis (DCA), net reclassification index (NRI), and integrated discrimination improvement (IDI). RESULTS In the training, validation, and testing sets, the radiomics model predicts an AUC of HE of 0.885, 0.827, and 0.894, respectively, while the clinical imaging sign model predicts an AUC of HE of 0.759, 0.725, and 0.765, respectively. Glasgow coma scale score at admission, first CT hematoma volume, irregular hematoma shape, and radiomics score were used to construct a hybrid model, with AUCs of 0.901, 0.838, and 0.917, respectively. The DCA shows that the hybrid model had the highest net profit rate. Compared with the radiomics model and the clinical imaging sign model, the hybrid model showed an increase in NRI and IDI. CONCLUSION The hybrid model based on CT radiomics combined with clinical and radiological factors can effectively individualize the evaluation of the risk of HE in patients with HICH. CLINICAL RELEVANCE STATEMENT CT radiomics combined with clinical information and conventional imaging signs can identify HICH patients with a high risk of HE and provide a basis for clinical-targeted treatment. KEY POINTS HE is an important prognostic factor in patients with HICH. The hybrid model predicted HE with training, validation, and test AUCs of 0.901, 0.838, and 0.917, respectively. This model provides a tool for a personalized clinical assessment of early HE risk.

Abstract
PURPOSE Early identification of hematoma enlargement and persistent hematoma expansion (HE) in patients with cerebral hemorrhage is increasingly crucial for determining clinical treatments. However, due to the lack of clinically effective tools, radiomics has been gradually introduced into the early identification of hematoma enlargement. Though, radiomics has limited predictive accuracy due to variations in procedures. Therefore, we conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis to explore the value of radiomics in the early detection of HE in patients with cerebral hemorrhage. METHODS Eligible studies were systematically searched in PubMed, Embase, Cochrane and Web of Science from inception to April 8, 2024. English articles are considered eligible. The radiomics quality scoring (RQS) tool was used to evaluate included studies. RESULTS A total of 34 studies were identified with sample sizes ranging from 108 to 3016. Eleven types of models were involved, and the types of modeling contained mainly clinical, radiomic, and radiomic plus clinical features. The radiomics models seem to have better performance (0.77 and 0.73 C-index in the training cohort and validation cohort, respectively) than the clinical models (0.69 C-index in the training cohort and 0.70 C-index in the validation cohort) in discriminating HE. However, the C-index was the highest for the combined model in both the training (0.82) and validation (0.79) cohorts. CONCLUSIONS Machine learning based on radiomic plus clinical features has the best predictive performance for HE, followed by machine learning based on radiomic features, and can be used as a potential tool to assist clinicians in early judgment.

Abstract
Hematoma expansion (HE) is an important risk factor for death or poor prognosis in patients with hypertensive intracerebral hemorrhage (HICH). Accurately predicting the risk of HE in patients with HICH is of great clinical significance for timely intervention and improving patient prognosis. Many imaging signs reported in literatures showed the important clinical value for predicting HE. In recent years, the development of radiomics and artificial intelligence has provided new methods for HE prediction with high accuracy. Therefore, this article reviews the latest research progress in CT imaging, radiomics, and artificial intelligence of HE, in order to help identify high-risk patients for HE in clinical practice.

Abstract
The mortality rate of acute intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) can reach up to 40%. Although the radiomics of ICH have been linked to hematoma expansion and outcomes, no research to date has explored their correlation with mortality. In this study, we determined the admission non-contrast head CT radiomic correlates of survival in supratentorial ICH, using the Antihypertensive Treatment of Acute Cerebral Hemorrhage II (ATACH-II) trial dataset. We extracted 107 original radiomic features from n = 871 admission non-contrast head CT scans. The Cox Proportional Hazards model, Kaplan-Meier Analysis, and logistic regression were used to analyze survival. In our analysis, the "first-order energy" radiomics feature, a metric that quantifies the sum of squared voxel intensities within a region of interest in medical images, emerged as an independent predictor of higher mortality risk (Hazard Ratio of 1.64, p < 0.0001), alongside age, National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS), and baseline International Normalized Ratio (INR). Using a Receiver Operating Characteristic (ROC) analysis, "the first-order energy" was a predictor of mortality at 1-week, 1-month, and 3-month post-ICH (all p < 0.0001), with Area Under the Curves (AUC) of >0.67. Our findings highlight the potential role of admission CT radiomics in predicting ICH survival, specifically, a higher "first-order energy" or very bright hematomas are associated with worse survival outcomes.

Abstract
Hypertensive Intracerebral Hemorrhage (HICH) is one of the most common types of cerebral hemorrhage with a high mortality and disability rate. Currently, preoperative non-contrast computed tomography (NCCT) scanning-guided stereotactic hematoma removal has achieved good results in treating HICH, but some patients still have poor prognoses. This study collected relevant clinical and radiomic data by retrospectively collecting and analyzing 432 patients who underwent stereotactic hematoma removal for HICH from January 2017 to December 2020 at the Liuzhou Workers Hospital. The prognosis of patients after 90 days was judged by the modified Rankin Scale (mRS) scale and divided into the good prognosis group (mRS ≤ 3) and the poor prognosis group (mRS > 3). The 268 patients were randomly divided into training and test sets in the ratio of 8:2, with 214 patients in the training set and 54 patients in the test set. The least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (Lasso) was used to screen radiomics features. They were combining clinical features and radiomic features to build a joint prediction model of the nomogram. The AUCs of the clinical model for predicting different prognoses of patients undergoing stereotactic HICH were 0.957 and 0.922 in the training and test sets, respectively, while the AUCs of the radiomics model were 0.932 and 0.770, respectively, and the AUCs of the combined prediction model for building a nomogram were 0.987 and 0.932, respectively. Compared with a single clinical or radiological model, the nomogram constructed by fusing clinical variables and radiomic features could better identify the prognosis of HICH patients undergoing stereotactic hematoma removal after 90 days.

Abstract
Hematoma expansion (HE) is a modifiable risk factor and a potential treatment target in patients with intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH). We aimed to train and validate deep-learning models for high-confidence prediction of supratentorial ICH expansion, based on admission non-contrast head Computed Tomography (CT). Applying Monte Carlo dropout and entropy of deep-learning model predictions, we estimated the model uncertainty and identified patients at high risk of HE with high confidence. Using the receiver operating characteristics area under the curve (AUC), we compared the deep-learning model prediction performance with multivariable models based on visual markers of HE determined by expert reviewers. We randomly split a multicentric dataset of patients (4-to-1) into training/cross-validation (n = 634) versus test (n = 159) cohorts. We trained and tested separate models for prediction of ≥6 mL and ≥3 mL ICH expansion. The deep-learning models achieved an AUC = 0.81 for high-confidence prediction of HE≥6 mL and AUC = 0.80 for prediction of HE≥3 mL, which were higher than visual maker models AUC = 0.69 for HE≥6 mL (p = 0.036) and AUC = 0.68 for HE≥3 mL (p = 0.043). Our results show that fully automated deep-learning models can identify patients at risk of supratentorial ICH expansion based on admission non-contrast head CT, with high confidence, and more accurately than benchmark visual markers.

Machine-learning-based performance comparison of two-dimensional (2D) and three-dimensional (3D) CT radiomics features for intracerebral haemorrhage expansion. Clin Radiol 2024; 79:e26-e33.

Abstract
AIM To investigate the value of non-contrast CT (NCCT)-based two-dimensional (2D) radiomics features in predicting haematoma expansion (HE) after spontaneous intracerebral haemorrhage (ICH) and compare its predictive ability with the three-dimensional (3D) signature. MATERIALS AND METHODS Three hundred and seven ICH patients who received baseline NCCT within 6 h of ictus from two stroke centres were analysed retrospectively. 2D and 3D radiomics features were extracted in the manner of one-to-one correspondence. The 2D and 3D models were generated by four different machine-learning algorithms (regularised L1 logistic regression, decision tree, support vector machine and AdaBoost), and the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was used to compare their predictive performance. A robustness analysis was performed according to baseline haematoma volume. RESULTS Each feature type of 2D and 3D modalities used for subsequent analyses had excellent consistency (mean ICC >0.9). Among the different machine-learning algorithms, pairwise comparison showed no significant difference in both the training (mean area under the ROC curve [AUC] 0.858 versus 0.802, all p>0.05) and validation datasets (mean AUC 0.725 versus 0.678, all p>0.05), and the 10-fold cross-validation evaluation yielded similar results. The AUCs of the 2D and 3D models were comparable either in the binary or tertile volume analysis (all p>0.5). CONCLUSION NCCT-derived 2D radiomics features exhibited acceptable and similar performance to the 3D features in predicting HE, and this comparability seemed unaffected by initial haematoma volume. The 2D signature may be preferred in future HE-related radiomic works given its compatibility with emergency condition of ICH.

High-resolution magnetic resonance imaging-based radiomic features aid in selecting endovascular candidates among patients with cerebral venous sinus thrombosis. Thromb J 2023; 21:116.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Cerebral venous sinus thrombosis (CVST) can cause sinus obstruction and stenosis, with potentially fatal consequences. High-resolution magnetic resonance imaging (HRMRI) can diagnose CVST qualitatively, although quantitative screening methods are lacking for patients refractory to anticoagulation therapy and who may benefit from endovascular treatment (EVT). Thus, in this study, we used radiomic features (RFs) extracted from HRMRI to build machine learning models to predict response to drug therapy and determine the appropriateness of EVT. MATERIALS AND METHODS RFs were extracted from three-dimensional T1-weighted motion-sensitized driven equilibrium (MSDE), T2-weighted MSDE, T1-contrast, and T1-contrast MSDE sequences to build radiomic signatures and support vector machine (SVM) models for predicting the efficacy of standard drug therapy and the necessity of EVT. RESULTS We retrospectively included 53 patients with CVST in a prospective cohort study, among whom 14 underwent EVT after standard drug therapy failed. Thirteen RFs were selected to construct the RF signature and CVST-SVM models. In the validation dataset, the sensitivity, specificity, and area under the curve performance for the RF signature model were 0.833, 0.937, and 0.977, respectively. The radiomic score was correlated with days from symptom onset, history of dyslipidemia, smoking, fibrin degradation product, and D-dimer levels. The sensitivity, specificity, and area under the curve for the CVST-SVM model in the validation set were 0.917, 0.969, and 0.992, respectively. CONCLUSIONS The CVST-SVM model trained with RFs extracted from HRMRI outperformed the RF signature model and could aid physicians in predicting patient responses to drug treatment and identifying those who may require EVT.

Abstract
PURPOSE Rapid identification of hematoma expansion (HE) risk at baseline is a priority in intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) patients and may impact clinical decision making. Predictive scores using clinical features and Non-Contract Computed Tomography (NCCT)-based features exist, however, the extent to which each feature set contributes to identification is limited. This paper aims to investigate the relative value of clinical, radiological, and radiomics features in HE prediction. METHODS Original data was retrospectively obtained from three major prospective clinical trials ["Spot Sign" Selection of Intracerebral Hemorrhage to Guide Hemostatic Therapy (SPOTLIGHT)NCT01359202; The Spot Sign for Predicting and Treating ICH Growth Study (STOP-IT)NCT00810888] Patients baseline and follow-up scans following ICH were included. Clinical, NCCT radiological, and radiomics features were extracted, and multivariate modeling was conducted on each feature set. RESULTS 317 patients from 38 sites met inclusion criteria. Warfarin use (p=0.001) and GCS score (p=0.046) were significant clinical predictors of HE. The best performing model for HE prediction included clinical, radiological, and radiomic features with an area under the curve (AUC) of 87.7%. NCCT radiological features improved upon clinical benchmark model AUC by 6.5% and a clinical & radiomic combination model by 6.4%. Addition of radiomics features improved goodness of fit of both clinical (p=0.012) and clinical & NCCT radiological (p=0.007) models, with marginal improvements on AUC. Inclusion of NCCT radiological signs was best for ruling out HE whereas the radiomic features were best for ruling in HE. CONCLUSION NCCT-based radiological and radiomics features can improve HE prediction when added to clinical features.

Perihematomal edema-based CT-radiomics model to predict functional outcome in patients with intracerebral hemorrhage. Diagn Interv Imaging 2023; 104:391-400. [PMID: 37179244 DOI: 10.1016/j.diii.2023.04.008] [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: 02/03/2023] [Revised: 04/18/2023] [Accepted: 04/24/2023] [Indexed: 05/15/2023]
Abstract
PURPOSE The purpose of this study was to identify possible association between noncontrast computed tomography (NCCT)-based radiomics features of perihematomal edema (PHE) and poor functional outcome at 90 days after intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) and to develop a NCCT-based radiomics-clinical nomogram to predict 90-day functional outcomes in patients with ICH. MATERIALS AND METHODS In this multicenter retrospective study, 107 radiomics features were extracted from 1098 NCCT examinations obtained in 1098 patients with ICH. There were 652 men and 446 women with a mean age of 60 ± 12 (SD) years (range: 23-95 years). After harmonized and univariable and multivariable screening, seven of these radiomics features were closely associated with the 90-day functional outcome of patients with ICH. The radiomics score (Rad-score) was calculated based on the seven radiomics features. A clinical-radiomics nomogram was developed and validated in three cohorts. The model performance was evaluated using area under the curve analysis and decision and calibration curves. RESULTS Of the 1098 patients with ICH, 395 had a good outcome at 90 days. Hematoma hypodensity sign and intraventricular and subarachnoid hemorrhages were identified as risk factors for poor outcomes (P < 0.001). Age, Glasgow coma scale score, and Rad-score were independently associated with outcome. The clinical-radiomics nomogram showed good predictive performance with AUCs of 0.882 (95% CI: 0.859-0.905), 0.834 (95% CI: 0.776-0.891) and 0.905 (95% CI: 0.839-0.970) in the three cohorts and clinical applicability. CONCLUSION NCCT-based radiomics features from PHE are highly correlated with outcome. When combined with Rad-score, radiomics features from PHE can improve the predictive performance for 90-day poor outcome in patients with ICH.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The angiographic spot sign (AS) on CT angiography (CTA) is known to be useful for predicting expansion in intracranial hemorrhage, but its use is limited due to its relatively low sensitivity. Recently, dual-energy computed tomography (DECT) has been shown to be superior in distinguishing between hemorrhage and iodine. This study aimed to evaluate the diagnostic performance of hematoma expansion (HE) using DECT AS in traumatic intracranial hemorrhage. METHODS We recruited participants with intracranial hemorrhage confirmed via CTA for suspected traumatic cerebrovascular injuries. We evaluated AS on both conventional-like and fusion images of DECT. AS is grouped into three categories: intralesional enhancement without change, delayed enhancement (DE), and growing contrast leakage (GL). HE was evaluated by measuring hematoma size on DECT and follow-up CT. Logistic regression analysis was used to evaluate whether AS on fusion images was a significant risk factor for HE. Diagnostic accuracy was calculated, and the results from conventional-like and fusion images were compared. RESULTS Thirty-nine hematomas in 24 patients were included in this study. Of these, 18 hematomas in 13 patients showed expansion on follow-up CT. Among the expanders, AS and GL on fusion images were noted in 13 and 5 hematomas, respectively. In non-expanders, 10 and 1 hematoma showed AS and GL, respectively. In the logistic regression model, GL on the fusion image was a significant independent risk factor for predicting HE. However, when AS was used on conventional-like images, no factors significantly predicted HE. In the receiver operating characteristic curve analysis, the area under the curve of AS on the fusion images was 0.71, with a sensitivity and specificity of 66.7% and 76.2%, respectively. CONCLUSIONS GL on fusion images of DECT in traumatic intracranial hemorrhage is a significant independent radiologic risk factor for predicting HE. The AS of DECT fusion images has improved sensitivity compared to that of conventional-like images.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To investigate the predictive value of noncontrast computed tomography (NCCT) models based on radiomics features and machine learning for early perihematomal edema (PHE) expansion in patients with spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH). METHODS We retrospectively reviewed NCCT data from 214 patients with spontaneous ICH. All radiomics features were extracted from volume of interest of hematomas on admission scans. A total of 8 machine learning methods were applied for constructing models in the training and the test set. Receiver operating characteristic analysis and the areas under the curve were used to evaluate the predictive value. RESULTS A total of 23 features were finally selected to establish models of early PHE expansion after feature screening. Patients were randomly assigned into training (n = 171) and test (n = 43) sets. The accuracy, sensitivity, and specificity in the test set were 72.1%, 90.0%, and 66.7% for the support vector machine model; 79.1%, 70.0%, and 84.4% for the k-nearest neighbor model; 88.4%, 90.0%, and 87.9% for the logistic regression model; 74.4%, 90.0%, and 69.7% for the extra tree model; 74.4%, 90.0%, and 69.7% for the extreme gradient boosting model; 83.7%, 100%, and 78.8% for the multilayer perceptron (MLP) model; 72.1%, 100%, and 65.6% for the light gradient boosting machine model; and 60.5%, 90.0%, and 53.1% for the random forest model, respectively. CONCLUSIONS The MLP model seemed to be the best model for prediction of PHE expansion in patients with ICH. NCCT models based on radiomics features and machine learning could predict early PHE expansion and improve the discrimination of identify spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhage patients at risk of early PHE expansion.

Multimodal-based machine learning strategy for accurate and non-invasive prediction of intramedullary glioma grade and mutation status of molecular markers: a retrospective study. BMC Med 2023; 21:198. [PMID: 37248527 DOI: 10.1186/s12916-023-02898-4] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 6.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/31/2023] [Accepted: 05/10/2023] [Indexed: 05/31/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Determining the grade and molecular marker status of intramedullary gliomas is important for assessing treatment outcomes and prognosis. Invasive biopsy for pathology usually carries a high risk of tissue damage, especially to the spinal cord, and there are currently no non-invasive strategies to identify the pathological type of intramedullary gliomas. Therefore, this study aimed to develop a non-invasive machine learning model to assist doctors in identifying the intramedullary glioma grade and mutation status of molecular markers. METHODS A total of 461 patients from two institutions were included, and their sagittal (SAG) and transverse (TRA) T2-weighted magnetic resonance imaging scans and clinical data were acquired preoperatively. We employed a transformer-based deep learning model to automatically segment lesions in the SAG and TRA phases and extract their radiomics features. Different feature representations were fed into the proposed neural networks and compared with those of other mainstream models. RESULTS The dice similarity coefficients of the Swin transformer in the SAG and TRA phases were 0.8697 and 0.8738, respectively. The results demonstrated that the best performance was obtained in our proposed neural networks based on multimodal fusion (SAG-TRA-clinical) features. In the external validation cohort, the areas under the receiver operating characteristic curve for graded (WHO I-II or WHO III-IV), alpha thalassemia/mental retardation syndrome X-linked (ATRX) status, and tumor protein p53 (P53) status prediction tasks were 0.8431, 0.7622, and 0.7954, respectively. CONCLUSIONS This study reports a novel machine learning strategy that, for the first time, is based on multimodal features to predict the ATRX and P53 mutation status and grades of intramedullary gliomas. The generalized application of these models could non-invasively provide more tumor-specific pathological information for determining the treatment and prognosis of intramedullary gliomas.

Abstract
Prediction of the hematoma expansion (HE) of spontaneous basal ganglia hematoma (SBH) from the first non-contrast CT can result in better management, which has the potential of improving outcomes. This study has been designed to compare the performance of "Radiomics analysis," "radiology signs," and "clinical-laboratory data" for this task. We retrospectively reviewed the electronic medical records for clinical, demographic, and laboratory data in patients with SBH. CT images were reviewed for the presence of radiologic signs, including black-hole, blend, swirl, satellite, and island signs. Radiomic features from the SBH on the first brain CT were extracted, and the most predictive features were selected. Different machine learning models were developed based on clinical, laboratory, and radiology signs and selected Radiomic features to predict hematoma expansion (HE). The dataset used for this analysis included 116 patients with SBH. Among different models and different thresholds to define hematoma expansion (10%, 20%, 25%, 33%, 40%, and 50% volume enlargement thresholds), the Random Forest based on 10 selected Radiomic features achieved the best performance (for 25% hematoma enlargement) with an area under the curve (AUC) of 0.9 on the training dataset and 0.89 on the test dataset. The models based on clinical-laboratory and radiology signs had low performance (AUCs about 0.5-0.6).

Abstract
PURPOSE To build three prognostic models using radiomics analysis of the hemorrhagic lesions, clinical variables, and their combination, to predict the outcome of stroke patients with spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhage (sICH). MATERIALS AND METHODS Eighty-three sICH patients were included. Among them, 40 patients (48.2%) had poor prognosis with modified Rankin scale (mRS) of 5 and 6 at discharge, and the prognostic model was built to differentiate mRS ≤ 4 vs. 5 + 6. The region of interest (ROI) of intraparenchymal hemorrhage (IPH) and intraventricular hemorrhage (IVH) were separately segmented. Features were extracted using PyRadiomics, and the support vector machine was applied to select features and build radiomics models based on IPH and IPH + IVH. The clinical models were built using multivariate logistic regression, and then the radiomics scores were combined with clinical variables to build the combined model. RESULTS When using IPH, the AUC for radiomics, clinical, and combined model was 0.78, 0.82, and 0.87, respectively. When using IPH + IVH, the AUC was increased to 0.80, 0.84, and 0.90, respectively. The combined model had a significantly improved AUC compared to the radiomics by DeLong test. A clinical prognostic model based on the ICH score of 0-1 only achieved AUC of 0.71. CONCLUSIONS The combined model using the radiomics score derived from IPH + IVH and the clinical factors could achieve a high accuracy in prediction of sICH patients with poor outcome, which may be used to assist in making the decision about the optimal care.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Post-stroke epilepsy (PSE) is associated with increased morbidity and mortality. This study aimed to develop and validate a novel prediction model combining clinical factors and radiomics features to accurately identify patients at high risk of developing PSE after intracerebral haemorrhage (ICH). METHODS Researchers performed a retrospective medical chart review to extract derivation and validation cohorts of patients with first-ever ICH that attended two tertiary hospitals in China between 2010 and 2020. Clinical data were extracted from electronic medical records and supplemented by tele-interview. Predictive clinical variables were selected by multivariable logistic regression to build the clinical model. Predictive radiomics features were identified, and a Rad-score was calculated according to the coefficient of the selected feature. Both clinical variables and radiomic features were combined to build the radiomics-clinical model. Performances of the clinical, Rad-score, and combined models were compared. RESULTS A total of 1571 patients were included in the analysis. Cortical involvement, early seizures within 7 days of ICH, NIHSS score, and ICH volume were included in the clinical model. Rad-score, instead of ICH volume, was included in the combined model. The combined model exhibited better discrimination ability and achieved an overall better benefit against threshold probability than the clinical model in the decision curve analysis (DCA). CONCLUSIONS The combined radiomics-clinical model was better able to predict ICH-associated PSE compared to the clinical model. This can help clinicians better predict an individual patient's risk of PSE following a first-ever ICH and facilitate earlier PSE diagnosis and treatment. KEY POINTS • Radiomics has not been used in predicting the risk of developing PSE. • Higher Rad-scores were associated with higher risk of developing PSE. • The combined model showed better performance of PSE prediction ability.

Abstract
Radiomics is a rapidly developing field of research focused on the extraction of quantitative features from medical images, thus converting these digital images into minable, high-dimensional data, which offer unique biological information that can enhance our understanding of disease processes and provide clinical decision support. To date, most radiomics research has been focused on oncological applications; however, it is increasingly being used in a raft of other diseases. This review gives an overview of radiomics for a clinical audience, including the radiomics pipeline and the common pitfalls associated with each stage. Key studies in oncology are presented with a focus on both those that use radiomics analysis alone and those that integrate its use with other multimodal data streams. Importantly, clinical applications outside oncology are also presented. Finally, we conclude by offering a vision for radiomics research in the future, including how it might impact our practice as radiologists.

Abstract
Objectives To develop and validate a radiomic-based model for differentiating hemorrhage from iodinated contrast extravasation of intraparenchymal hyperdense areas (HDA) following mechanical thrombectomy treatment in acute ischemic stroke. Methods A total of 100 and four patients with intraparenchymal HDA on initial post-operative CT were included in this study. The patients who met criteria were divided into a primary and a validation cohort. A training cohort was constructed using Synthetic Minority Oversampling Technique on the primary cohort to achieve group balance. Thereafter, a radiomics score was calculated and the radiomic model was constructed. Clinical factors were assessed to build clinical model. Combined with the Rad-score and independent clinical factors, a combined model was constructed. Different models were assessed using the area under the receiver operator characteristic curves. The combined model was visualized as nomogram, and assessed with calibration and clinical usefulness. Results Cardiogenic diseases, intraoperative tirofiban administration and preoperative national institute of health stroke scale were selected as independent predictors to construct the clinical model with area under curve (AUC) of 0.756 and 0.693 in the training and validation cohort, respectively. Our data demonstrated that the radiomic model showed good discrimination in the training (AUC, 0.955) and validation cohort (AUC, 0.869). The combined nomogram model showed optimal discrimination in the training (AUC, 0.972) and validation cohort (AUC, 0.926). Decision curve analysis demonstrated the combined model had a higher overall net benefit in differentiating hemorrhage from iodinated contrast extravasation in terms of clinical usefulness. Conclusions The nomogram shows favorable efficacy for differentiating hemorrhage from iodinated contrast extravasation, which might provide an individualized tool for precision therapy.

Abstract
Background This meta-analysis aimed to assess the efficacy of radiomics using non-enhanced computed tomography (NCCT) for predicting hematoma expansion in patients with spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhage. Methods Throughout the inception of the project to April 11, 2022, a comprehensive search was conducted on PubMed, Embase, and Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials. The methodological quality of studies in this analysis was assessed by the radiomics quality scoring system (RQS). A meta-analysis of radiomic studies based on NCCT for predicting hematoma expansion in patients with intracerebral hemorrhage was performed. The efficacy of the radiomics approach and non-contrast CT markers was compared using network meta-analysis (NMA). Results Ten articles comprising a total of 1525 patients were quantitatively analyzed for hematoma expansion after cerebral hemorrhage using radiomics. Based on the included studies, the mean RQS was 14.4. The AUC value (95% confidence interval) of the radiomics model was 0.80 (0.76-0.83). Five articles comprising 846 patients were included in the NMA. The results synthesized according to Bayesian NMA revealed that the predictive ability of the radiomics model outperformed most of the NCCT biomarkers. Conclusions The NCCT-based radiomics approach has the potential to predict hematoma expansion. Compared to NCCT biomarkers, we recommend a radiomics approach. Standardization of the radiomics approach is required for further clinical implementation.

The Added Value of Intraventricular Hemorrhage on the Radiomics Analysis for the Prediction of Hematoma Expansion of Spontaneous Intracerebral Hemorrhage. Diagnostics (Basel) 2022; 12:diagnostics12112755. [PMID: 36428815 PMCID: PMC9689620 DOI: 10.3390/diagnostics12112755] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/19/2022] [Revised: 10/29/2022] [Accepted: 11/08/2022] [Indexed: 11/12/2022] Open
Abstract
Background: Among patients undergoing head computed tomography (CT) scans within 3 h of spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhage (sICH), 28% to 38% have hematoma expansion (HE) on follow-up CT. This study aimed to predict HE using radiomics analysis and investigate the impact of intraventricular hemorrhage (IVH) compared with the conventional approach based on intraparenchymal hemorrhage (IPH) alone. Methods: This retrospective study enrolled 127 patients with baseline and follow-up non-contrast CT (NCCT) within 4~72 h of sICH. IPH and IVH were outlined separately for performing radiomics analysis. HE was defined as an absolute hematoma growth > 6 mL or percentage growth > 33% of either IPH (HEP) or a combination of IPH and IVH (HEP+V) at follow-up. Radiomic features were extracted using PyRadiomics, and then the support vector machine (SVM) was used to build the classification model. For each case, a radiomics score was generated to indicate the probability of HE. Results: There were 57 (44.9%) HEP and 70 (55.1%) non-HEP based on IPH alone, and 58 (45.7%) HEP+V and 69 (54.3%) non-HEP+V based on IPH + IVH. The majority (>94%) of HE patients had poor early outcomes (death or modified Rankin Scale > 3 at discharge). The radiomics model built using baseline IPH to predict HEP (RMP) showed 76.4% accuracy and 0.73 area under the ROC curve (AUC). The other model using IPH + IVH to predict HEP+V (RMP+V) had higher accuracy (81.9%) with AUC = 0.80, and this model could predict poor outcomes. The sensitivity/specificity of RMP and RMP+V for HE prediction were 71.9%/80.0% and 79.3%/84.1%, respectively. Conclusion: The proposed radiomics approach with additional IVH information can improve the accuracy in prediction of HE, which is associated with poor clinical outcomes. A reliable radiomics model may provide a robust tool to help manage ICH patients and to enroll high-risk ICH cases into anti-expansion or neuroprotection drug trials.

Abstract
Background and purposeHematoma expansion (HE) is a critical event following acute intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH). We aimed to construct a non-contrast computed tomography (NCCT) model combining clinical characteristics, radiological signs, and radiomics features to predict HE in patients with spontaneous ICH and to develop a nomogram to assess the risk of early HE.Materials and methodsWe retrospectively reviewed 388 patients with ICH who underwent initial NCCT within 6 h after onset and follow-up CT within 24 h after initial NCCT, between January 2015 and December 2021. Using the LASSO algorithm or stepwise logistic regression analysis, five models (clinical model, radiological model, clinical-radiological model, radiomics model, and combined model) were developed to predict HE in the training cohort (n = 235) and independently verified in the test cohort (n = 153). The Akaike information criterion (AIC) and the likelihood ratio test (LRT) were used for comparing the goodness of fit of the five models, and the AUC was used to evaluate their ability in discriminating HE. A nomogram was developed based on the model with the best performance.ResultsThe combined model (AIC = 202.599, χ2 = 80.6) was the best fitting model with the lowest AIC and the highest LRT chi-square value compared to the clinical model (AIC = 232.263, χ2 = 46.940), radiological model (AIC = 227.932, χ2 = 51.270), clinical-radiological model (AIC = 212.711, χ2 = 55.490) or radiomics model (AIC = 217.647, χ2 = 57.550). In both cohorts, the nomogram derived from the combined model showed satisfactory discrimination and calibration for predicting HE (AUC = 0.900, sensitivity = 83.87%; AUC = 0.850, sensitivity = 80.10%, respectively).ConclusionThe NCCT-based model combining clinical characteristics, radiological signs, and radiomics features could efficiently discriminate early HE, and the nomogram derived from the combined model, as a non-invasive tool, exhibited satisfactory performance in stratifying HE risks.

Deep Learning-Based Prediction of Hematoma Expansion Using a Single Brain Computed Tomographic Slice in Patients With Spontaneous Intracerebral Hemorrhages. World Neurosurg 2022; 165:e128-e136. [PMID: 35680084 DOI: 10.1016/j.wneu.2022.05.109] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/05/2022] [Revised: 05/24/2022] [Accepted: 05/24/2022] [Indexed: 12/14/2022]
Abstract
OBJECTIVES We aimed to predict hematoma expansion in intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) patients by using the deep learning technique. METHODS We retrospectively collected data from ICH patients treated between May 2015 and May 2019. Head computed tomography (CT) scans were performed at admission, and 6 hours, 24 hours, and 72 hours after admission. CT scans were mandatory when neurologic deficits occurred. Univariate and multivariate analyses were conducted to illustrate the association between clinical variables and hematoma expansion. Convolutional neural network (CNN) was adopted to predict hematoma expansion based on brain CT slices. In addition, 5 machine learning methods, including support vector machine, multi-layer perceptron, naive Bayes, decision tree, and random forest, were also performed to predict hematoma expansion based on clinical variables for comparisons. RESULTS A total of 223 patients were included. It was revealed that patients' older age (odds ratio [95% confidence interval]: 1.783 [1.417-1.924]), cerebral hemorrhage and breaking into the ventricle (2.524 [1.291-1.778]), coagulopathy (2.341 [1.677-3.454]), and baseline National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (1.545 [1.132-3.203]) and Glasgow Coma Scale scores (0.782 [0.432-0.918]) independently associated with hematoma expanding. After 4-5 epochs, the CNN framework was well trained. The average sensitivity, specificity, and accuracy of CNN prediction are 0.9197, 0.8837, and 0.9058, respectively. Compared with 5 machine learning methods based on clinical variables, CNN can also achieve better performance. CONCLUSIONS More than 90% of hematomas with or without expansion can be precisely classified by deep learning technology within this study, which is better than other methods based on clinical variables only. Deep learning technology could favorably predict hematoma expansion from non-contrast CT scan images.

Abstract
Aim To develop and validate a radiomics nomogram on non-contrast-enhanced computed tomography (NECT) for classifying hematoma entities in patients with acute spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH). Materials and Methods One hundred and thirty-five patients with acute intraparenchymal hematomas and baseline NECT scans were retrospectively analyzed, i.e., 52 patients with vascular malformation-related hemorrhage (VMH) and 83 patients with primary intracerebral hemorrhage (PICH). The patients were divided into training and validation cohorts in a 7:3 ratio with a random seed. After extracting the radiomics features of hematomas from baseline NECT, the least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) regression was applied to select features and construct the radiomics signature. Multivariate logistic regression analysis was used to determine the independent clinical-radiological risk factors, and a clinical model was constructed. A predictive radiomics nomogram was generated by incorporating radiomics signature and clinical-radiological risk factors. Nomogram performance was assessed in the training cohort and tested in the validation cohort. The capability of models was compared by calibration, discrimination, and clinical benefit. Results Six features were selected to establish radiomics signature via LASSO regression. The clinical model was constructed with the combination of age [odds ratio (OR): 6.731; 95% confidence interval (CI): 2.209–20.508] and hemorrhage location (OR: 0.089; 95% CI: 0.028–0.281). Radiomics nomogram [area under the curve (AUC), 0.912 and 0.919] that incorporated age, location, and radiomics signature outperformed the clinical model (AUC, 0.816 and 0.779) and signature (AUC, 0.857 and 0.810) in the training cohort and validation cohorts, respectively. Good calibration and clinical benefit of nomogram were achieved in the training and validation cohorts. Conclusion Non-contrast-enhanced computed tomography-based radiomics nomogram can predict the individualized risk of VMH in patients with acute ICH.

Abstract
PURPOSE To develop a non-contrast computed tomography-(CT)-based radiomics score for predicting the risk of hematoma early enlargement in spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhage. METHODS A total of 258 patients from a single-center database with acute spontaneous intracerebral parenchymal hemorrhage were collected. Radiomics software was explored to segment hematomas on baseline non-contrast CT images, and the texture features were extracted. Minimal Redundancy and Maximal Relevance (mRMR) and Least Absolute Shrinkage and Selection Operator (LASSO), were used to select optimized subset of features and radiomics score was calculated. The radiomics model (radiomics score-based), radiomics nomogram (radiomics score combined with clinical factors-based) and clinical model (clinical factors-based) were built in a training cohort and validated in a test cohort. The discrimination, calibration, and clinical usefulness of the models were evaluated. Finally, a subgroup analysis was performed to assess the predictive value of radiomics score in specific hemorrhage location. RESULTS Radiomics score was composed of 12 radiomics features. The radiomics model and radiomics nomogram both showed good performance in predicting hematoma enlargement (area under the curve, AUC 0.83 [0.71-0.95], AUC 0.82 [0.72, 0.93]), and were both better than clinical model (AUC 0.66 [0.54-0.79]). The radiomics model and radiomics nomogram showed satisfactory calibration and clinical usefulness for detecting hematoma enlargement. For subgroup analysis, radiomics score also showed good predictive value for hematoma enlargement in different locations (AUC were 0.828, 0.940, 0.836 and 0.904, respectively, for supratentorial, subtentorial, deep and lobes). CONCLUSION A radiomics score based on non-contrast CT may be considered as a potential biomarker for prediction of hematoma enlargement in patients with spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhage (SICH), and it presented a high incremental value to clinical factors for hematoma enlargement prediction.

Development and Validation of a Clinical-Based Signature to Predict the 90-Day Functional Outcome for Spontaneous Intracerebral Hemorrhage. Front Aging Neurosci 2022; 14:904085. [PMID: 35615596 PMCID: PMC9125153 DOI: 10.3389/fnagi.2022.904085] [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: 03/25/2022] [Accepted: 04/15/2022] [Indexed: 11/23/2022] Open
Abstract
We aimed to develop and validate an objective and easy-to-use model for identifying patients with spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) who have a poor 90-day prognosis. This three-center retrospective study included a large cohort of 1,122 patients with ICH who presented within 6 h of symptom onset [training cohort, n = 835; internal validation cohort, n = 201; external validation cohort (center 2 and 3), n = 86]. We collected the patients’ baseline clinical, radiological, and laboratory data as well as the 90-day functional outcomes. Independent risk factors for prognosis were identified through univariate analysis and multivariate logistic regression analysis. A nomogram was developed to visualize the model results while a calibration curve was used to verify whether the predictive performance was satisfactorily consistent with the ideal curve. Finally, we used decision curves to assess the clinical utility of the model. At 90 days, 714 (63.6%) patients had a poor prognosis. Factors associated with prognosis included age, midline shift, intraventricular hemorrhage (IVH), subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH), hypodensities, ICH volume, perihematomal edema (PHE) volume, temperature, systolic blood pressure, Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS) score, white blood cell (WBC), neutrophil, and neutrophil-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) (p < 0.05). Moreover, age, ICH volume, and GCS were identified as independent risk factors for prognosis. For identifying patients with poor prognosis, the model showed an area under the receiver operating characteristic curve of 0.874, 0.822, and 0.868 in the training cohort, internal validation, and external validation cohorts, respectively. The calibration curve revealed that the nomogram showed satisfactory calibration in the training and validation cohorts. Decision curve analysis showed the clinical utility of the nomogram. Taken together, the nomogram developed in this study could facilitate the individualized outcome prediction in patients with ICH.

CT-based radiomics for differentiating intracranial contrast extravasation from intraparenchymal haemorrhage after mechanical thrombectomy. Eur Radiol 2022; 32:4771-4779. [PMID: 35113213 PMCID: PMC9213289 DOI: 10.1007/s00330-022-08541-9] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/01/2021] [Revised: 11/27/2021] [Accepted: 12/27/2021] [Indexed: 11/26/2022]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE To develop a nonenhanced CT-based radiomic signature for the differentiation of iodinated contrast extravasation from intraparenchymal haemorrhage (IPH) following mechanical thrombectomy. METHODS Patients diagnosed with acute ischaemic stroke who underwent mechanical thrombectomy in 4 institutions from December 2017 to June 2020 were included in this retrospective study. The study population was divided into a training cohort and a validation cohort. The nonenhanced CT images taken after mechanical thrombectomy were used to extract radiomic features. The maximum relevance minimum redundancy (mRMR) algorithm was used to eliminate confounding variables. Afterwards, least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) logistic regression was used to generate the radiomic signature. The diagnostic performance of the radiomic signature was evaluated by the area under the curve (AUC), accuracy, specificity, sensitivity, positive predictive value (PPV), and negative predictive value (NPV). RESULTS A total of 166 intraparenchymal areas of hyperattenuation from 101 patients were used. The areas of hyperattenuation were randomly allocated to the training and validation cohorts at a ratio of 7:3. The AUC of the radiomic signature was 0.848 (95% confidence interval (CI) 0.780-0.917) in the training cohort and 0.826 (95% CI 0.705-0.948) in the validation cohort. The accuracy of the radiomic signature was 77.6%, with a sensitivity of 76.7%, a specificity of 78.9%, a PPV of 85.2%, and a NPV of 68.2% in the validation cohort. CONCLUSIONS The radiomic signature constructed based on initial post-operative nonenhanced CT after mechanical thrombectomy can effectively differentiate IPH from iodinated contrast extravasation. KEY POINTS • Radiomic features were extracted from intraparenchymal areas of hyperattenuation on initial post-operative CT scans after mechanical thrombectomy. • The nonenhanced CT-based radiomic signature can differentiate IPH from iodinated contrast extravasation early. • The radiomic signature may help prevent unnecessary rescanning after mechanical thrombectomy, especially in cases where contrast extravasation is highly suggestive.

Abstract
Objective: To derive and validate a location-specific radiomics score (Rad-score) based on noncontrast computed tomography for predicting poor deep and lobar spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhage (SICH) outcome. Methods: In total, 494 SICH patients from multiple centers were retrospectively reviewed. Poor outcome was considered mRS 3–6 at 6 months. The Rad-score was derived using optimal radiomics features. The optimal location-specific Rad-score cut-offs for poor deep and lobar SICH outcomes were identified using receiver operating characteristic curve analysis. Univariable and multivariable analyses were used to determine independent poor outcome predictors. The combined models for deep and lobar SICH were constructed using independent predictors of poor outcomes, including dichotomized Rad-score in the derivation cohort, which was validated in the validation cohort. Results: Of 494 SICH patients, 392 (79%) had deep SICH, and 373 (76%) had poor outcomes. The Glasgow Coma Scale score, haematoma enlargement, haematoma location, haematoma volume and Rad-score were independent predictors of poor outcomes (all P < 0.05). Cut-offs of Rad-score, 82.90 (AUC = 0.794) in deep SICH and 80.77 (AUC = 0.823) in lobar SICH, were identified for predicting poor outcomes. For deep SICH, the AUCs of the combined model were 0.856 and 0.831 in the derivation and validation cohorts, respectively. For lobar SICH, the combined model AUCs were 0.866 and 0.843 in the derivation and validation cohorts, respectively. Conclusion: Location-specific Rad-scores and combined models can identify subjects at high risk of poor deep and lobar SICH outcomes, which could improve clinical trial design by screening target patients.

Abstract
Radiomics has achieved significant momentum in radiology research and can reveal image information invisible to radiologists' eyes. Radiomics first evolved for oncologic imaging. Oncologic applications (histopathology, tumor grading, gene mutation analysis, patient survival, and treatment response prediction) of radiomics are widespread. However, it is not limited to oncologic analysis, and any digital medical images can benefit from radiomics analysis. This article reviews the current literature on radiomics in non-oncologic, neurological disorders including ischemic strokes, hemorrhagic stroke, cerebral aneurysms, and demyelinating disorders.

Different Effects of Hematoma Expansion on Short-Term Functional Outcome in Basal Ganglia and Thalamic Hemorrhages. BIOMED RESEARCH INTERNATIONAL 2021; 2021:9233559. [PMID: 34734087 PMCID: PMC8560255 DOI: 10.1155/2021/9233559] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/17/2021] [Accepted: 10/05/2021] [Indexed: 11/18/2022]
Abstract
Purpose To investigate the impact of hematoma expansion (HE) on short-term functional outcome of patients with thalamic and basal ganglia intracerebral hemorrhage. Methods Data of 420 patients with deep intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) that received a baseline CT scan within 6 hours from symptom onset and a follow-up CT scan within 72 hours were retrospectively analyzed. The poor functional outcome was defined as modified Rankin score (mRS) > 3 at 30 days. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves for relative and absolute growth of HE were generated and compared. Multivariable logistic regression models were used to analyze the impact of HE on the functional outcome in basal ganglia and thalamic hemorrhages. The predictive values for different thresholds of HE were calculated, and correlation coefficient matrices were used to explore the correlation between the covariables. Results Basal ganglia ICH showed a higher possibility of absolute hematoma growth than thalamic ICH. The area under the curve (AUC) for absolute and relative growth of thalamic hemorrhage was lower than that of basal ganglia hemorrhage (AUC 0.71 and 0.67, respectively) in discriminating short-term poor outcome with an AUC of 0.59 and 0.60, respectively. Each threshold of HE independently predicted poor outcome in basal ganglia ICH (P < 0.001), with HE > 3 ml and > 6 ml showing higher positive predictive values and accuracy compared to HE > 33%. In contrast, thalamic ICH had a smaller baseline volume (BV, 9.55 ± 6.85 ml) and was more likely to initially involve the posterior limb of internal capsule (PLIC) (85/153, 57.82%), and the risk of HE was lower without PLIC involvement (4.76%, P = 0.009). Therefore, in multivariate analysis, the effect of thalamic HE on poor prognosis was largely replaced by BV and the involvement of PLIC, and the adjusted odds ratios (ORs) of HE was not significant (P > 0.05). Conclusion Though HE is a high-risk factor for short-term poor functional outcome, it is not an independent risk factor in thalamic ICH, and absolute growth is more predictive of poor outcome than relative growth for basal ganglia ICH.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To develop and validate a radiomics-clinical nomogram for the prediction of short-term prognosis in patients with deep intracerebral hemorrhage (DICH) on admission. METHODS A total of 326 patients with DICH (development cohort = 187; testing cohort = 81; validation cohort = 58) were retrospectively included. Radiomics features were extracted from computed tomography (CT) images and optimal features were selected using least absolute shrinkage and selection operator regression. A radiomics score (R-score) was developed using the optimal features. Univariate and multivariate analyses were used to determine independent risk factors for poor outcomes at 30 days. A radiomics-clinical (R-C) nomogram was developed and validated in the three cohorts. Receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC), calibration curve and decision curve analyses were conducted to evaluate the performances of the R-C nomogram. RESULTS Only 4 of 396 radiomics features were selected to develop R-scores. Age, onset-to-CT time, Glasgow Coma Scale score, midline shift, and R-score were detected as independent predictors of poor prognosis of DICH. The R-C nomogram was developed by the independent predictors and showed acceptable discrimination with areas under ROCs of 0.80, 0.79, and 0.70 in the development, testing and validation cohorts, respectively. The R-C nomogram showed good agreement between the predicted probability and the actual probability (all P > 0.05) and clinical applicability in each cohort. CONCLUSIONS The R-C nomogram is a stable and effective tool for predicting the short-term prognosis of DICH, which may help clinicians perform individual risk assessments and make decisions for patients with DICH.

Admission computed tomography radiomic signatures outperform hematoma volume in predicting baseline clinical severity and functional outcome in the ATACH-2 trial intracerebral hemorrhage population. Eur J Neurol 2021; 28:2989-3000.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Radiomics provides a framework for automated extraction of high-dimensional feature sets from medical images. We aimed to determine radiomics signature correlates of admission clinical severity and medium-term outcome from intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) lesions on baseline head computed tomography (CT). METHODS We used the ATACH-2 (Antihypertensive Treatment of Acute Cerebral Hemorrhage II) trial dataset. Patients included in this analysis (n = 895) were randomly allocated to discovery (n = 448) and independent validation (n = 447) cohorts. We extracted 1130 radiomics features from hematoma lesions on baseline noncontrast head CT scans and generated radiomics signatures associated with admission Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS), admission National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS), and 3-month modified Rankin Scale (mRS) scores. Spearman's correlation between radiomics signatures and corresponding target variables was compared with hematoma volume. RESULTS In the discovery cohort, radiomics signatures, compared to ICH volume, had a significantly stronger association with admission GCS (0.47 vs. 0.44, p = 0.008), admission NIHSS (0.69 vs. 0.57, p < 0.001), and 3-month mRS scores (0.44 vs. 0.32, p < 0.001). Similarly, in independent validation, radiomics signatures, compared to ICH volume, had a significantly stronger association with admission GCS (0.43 vs. 0.41, p = 0.02), NIHSS (0.64 vs. 0.56, p < 0.001), and 3-month mRS scores (0.43 vs. 0.33, p < 0.001). In multiple regression analysis adjusted for known predictors of ICH outcome, the radiomics signature was an independent predictor of 3-month mRS in both cohorts. CONCLUSIONS Limited by the enrollment criteria of the ATACH-2 trial, we showed that radiomics features quantifying hematoma texture, density, and shape on baseline CT can provide imaging correlates for clinical presentation and 3-month outcome. These findings couldtrigger a paradigm shift where imaging biomarkers may improve current modelsfor prognostication, risk-stratification, and treatment triage of ICH patients.

Comparison of Radiomic Models Based on Different Machine Learning Methods for Predicting Intracerebral Hemorrhage Expansion. Clin Neuroradiol 2021; 32:215-223. [PMID: 34156513 DOI: 10.1007/s00062-021-01040-2] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/14/2020] [Accepted: 05/10/2021] [Indexed: 10/21/2022]
Abstract
PURPOSE The objective of this study was to predict hematoma expansion (HE) by radiomic models based on different machine learning methods and determine the best radiomic model through the comparison. METHOD A total of 108 patients with intracerebral hemorrhage were retrospectively evaluated. Images of baseline non-contrast computed tomography (NCCT) and follow-up NCCT scan within 24 h were retrospectively reviewed. An HE was defined as a volume increase of more than 33% or an increase greater than 12.5 mL from the volume of the baseline NCCT. Texture parameters of the baseline NCCT images were selected by the least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) regression. We used support vector machine (SVM), decision tree (DT), conditional inference trees (CIT), random forest (RF), k‑nearest neighbors (KNN), back-propagation neural network (BPNet) and Bayes to build models. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analysis and decision curve analysis (DCA) was performed and compared among models. RESULTS Every model had a relatively high AUC (all > 0.75), SVM and KNN had the highest AUC of 0.91. There were significant differences between SVM and CIT (Z > 2.266, p = 0.02345), KNN and CIT (Z = 2.4834, p = 0.01301), RF and CIT (Z = 2.6956, p = 0.007027), KNN and BPNet (Z = 2.0122, p = 0.0442), RF and BPNet (Z = 1.9793, p = 0.04778). There was no significant difference among SVM, DT, RF, KNN and Bayes (p > 0.05). The SVM obtained the largest net benefit when the threshold probability was less than 0.33, while KNN obtained the largest net benefit when the threshold probability was greater than 0.33. Combined with ROC and DCA, SVM and KNN performed better in all the models for predicting HE. CONCLUSION Radiomic models based on different machine learning methods can be used to predict HE and the models generated by SVM and KNN performed best.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To identify reproducible hematoma radiomics features (RFs) for use in predicting hematoma expansion (HE) in patients with acute intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH). METHODS For test-retest analysis, three syringes with different volumes of blood collected at the same time (to mimic homogeneous hematoma) and a phantom (FT/HK 2000; Huake, Szechwan, China) containing three cylindrical inserts were scanned seven times within 6 h on the same CT scanner. Three additional syringes with mixed blood collected at different time points (to mimic heterogeneous hematoma) were tied together with the first three syringes as well as the phantom were scanned using modified CT acquisition parameters for intra CT analysis. A coefficient of variation below 10% served as the cutoff value for reproducibility. Finally, reproducible and potentially useful RFs were used to predict HE in 144 acute ICH patients, with the area under the receiver operating characteristic curves (AUC) used to evaluate their diagnostic performance. RESULTS A total of 630 RFs including 18 first-order, 24 gray-level co-occurrence matrix (GLCM), 16 gray-level run length matrix (GLRLM), five neighborhood gray-tone difference matrix (NGTDM), 63 Laplacian of Gaussian (LoG), and 504 Wavelet features were evaluated. In the test-retest analysis, the percentages of reproducible RFs ranged from 42.54% (268/630) to 45.4% (286/630) for the three homogeneous hematoma samples and 79.05% (498/630) to 81.43% (513/630) for the phantom. In the intra-CT analysis, the percentages varied from 31.43% (198/630) to 42.38% (267/630) for the six hematoma samples and 48.89% (308/630) to 53.97% (340/630) for the phantom. In the in vitro experiment, 148 RFs were reproducible for all hematoma samples in both the test-retest and intra-CT analyses; however, only 80 were statistically different between homogeneous and heterogeneous hematoma samples. Finally, HE occurred in 25% (growth >6 ml, 36/144) to 31.94% (growth >3 ml or 33%, 46/144) of the patients. The AUCs in predicting HE ranged from 0.625 to 0.703. CONCLUSIONS Only a few CT-based RFs from the in vitro hematoma were reproducible and can distinguish between homogeneous and heterogeneous hematomas. The use of RFs alone to predict HE in acute ICH showed only a moderate performance. ADVANCES IN KNOWLEDGE Using an in vitro experiment and clinical validation, this study demonstrated for the first time that CT-based hematoma RFs can be used to predict HE in acute ICH; nonetheless, only a few RFs are reproducible and can be used for prediction.

Quantitative CT radiomics-based models for prediction of haematoma expansion and poor functional outcome in primary intracerebral haemorrhage. Eur Radiol 2021; 31:7945-7959. [PMID: 33860831 PMCID: PMC8452575 DOI: 10.1007/s00330-021-07826-9] [Citation(s) in RCA: 32] [Impact Index Per Article: 10.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/04/2020] [Revised: 01/19/2021] [Accepted: 02/22/2021] [Indexed: 11/28/2022]
Abstract
OBJECTIVES To test radiomics-based features extracted from noncontrast CT of patients with spontaneous intracerebral haemorrhage for prediction of haematoma expansion and poor functional outcome and compare them with radiological signs and clinical factors. MATERIALS AND METHODS Seven hundred fifty-four radiomics-based features were extracted from 1732 scans derived from the TICH-2 multicentre clinical trial. Features were harmonised and a correlation-based feature selection was applied. Different elastic-net parameterisations were tested to assess the predictive performance of the selected radiomics-based features using grid optimisation. For comparison, the same procedure was run using radiological signs and clinical factors separately. Models trained with radiomics-based features combined with radiological signs or clinical factors were tested. Predictive performance was evaluated using the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC) score. RESULTS The optimal radiomics-based model showed an AUC of 0.693 for haematoma expansion and an AUC of 0.783 for poor functional outcome. Models with radiological signs alone yielded substantial reductions in sensitivity. Combining radiomics-based features and radiological signs did not provide any improvement over radiomics-based features alone. Models with clinical factors had similar performance compared to using radiomics-based features, albeit with low sensitivity for haematoma expansion. Performance of radiomics-based features was boosted by incorporating clinical factors, with time from onset to scan and age being the most important contributors for haematoma expansion and poor functional outcome prediction, respectively. CONCLUSION Radiomics-based features perform better than radiological signs and similarly to clinical factors on the prediction of haematoma expansion and poor functional outcome. Moreover, combining radiomics-based features with clinical factors improves their performance. KEY POINTS • Linear models based on CT radiomics-based features perform better than radiological signs on the prediction of haematoma expansion and poor functional outcome in the context of intracerebral haemorrhage. • Linear models based on CT radiomics-based features perform similarly to clinical factors known to be good predictors. However, combining these clinical factors with radiomics-based features increases their predictive performance.

Eur Radiol 2021; 31:7067-7076. [PMID: 33755755 DOI: 10.1007/s00330-021-07768-2] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/03/2020] [Revised: 01/21/2021] [Accepted: 02/09/2021] [Indexed: 11/26/2022]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE To develop a non-contrast CT-based radiomic signature to effectively screen for thoracic aortic dissections (ADs). METHODS We retrospectively enrolled 378 patients who underwent non-contrast chest CT scans along with CT angiography or MRI from 4 medical centers. The training and validation sets were from 3 centers, while the external test set was from a 4th center. Radiomic features were extracted from non-contrast CT images. The radiomic signature was created on the basis of selected features by a logistic regression algorithm. The area under the curve (AUC) of the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve, accuracy, sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value (PPV), and negative predictive value (NPV) were conducted to assess the predictive ability of radiomic signature. RESULTS The radiomic signature demonstrated AUCs of 0.91 (95% confidence interval [CI], 0.86-0.95) in the training set, 0.92 (95% CI, 0.86-0.98) in the validation set, and 0.90 (95% CI, 0.82-0.98) in the external test set. The predicted diagnosis was in good agreement with the probability of thoracic AD. In the external test group, the diagnostic accuracy, sensitivity, specificity, PPV, and NPV were 90.5%, 85.7%, 91.7%, 70.6%, and 96.5%, respectively. CONCLUSIONS A radiomic signature based on non-contrast CT images can effectively predict thoracic ADs. This method may serve as a potential screening tool for thoracic ADs. KEY POINTS • The non-contrast CT-based radiomic signature can effectively predict the thoracic aortic dissections. • This radiomic signature shows better predictive performance compared to the current clinical model. • This prediction method may be a potential tool for screening thoracic aortic dissections.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To develop and validate a noncontrast computed tomography (NCCT)-based clinical-radiomics nomogram to identify spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhage (sICH) patients with a poor 90-day prognosis on admission. METHODS In this double-center retrospective study, data from 435 patients with sICH (training cohort: n = 244; internal validation cohort: n = 104; external validation cohort: n = 87) were reviewed. The radiomics score (Rad-score) was calculated based on the coefficients of the selected radiomics features. A clinical-radiomics nomogram was developed by using independent predictors of poor outcome at 90 days through multivariate logistic regression analysis in the training cohort and was validated in the internal and external cohorts. RESULTS At 90 days, 200 of 435 (46.0%) patients had a poor prognosis. The clinical-radiomics nomogram was developed by six independent predictors namely midline shift, NCCT time from sICH onset, Glasgow Coma Scale score, serum glucose, uric acid, and Rad-score. In identifying patients with poor prognosis, the clinical-radiomics nomogram showed an area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC) of 0.81 in the training cohort, an AUC of 0.78 in the internal validation cohort, and an AUC of 0.73 in the external validation cohort. The calibration curve revealed that the clinical-radiomics nomogram showed satisfactory calibration in the training and internal validation cohorts (both p > 0.05), but slightly poor agreement in the external validation cohort (p < 0.05). CONCLUSIONS The clinical-radiomics nomogram is a valid computer-aided tool that may provide personalized risk assessment of 90-day functional outcome for sICH patients. KEY POINTS • The proposed Rad-score was significantly associated with 90-day poor functional outcome in patients with sICH. • The clinical-radiomics nomogram showed satisfactory calibration and the most net benefit for discriminating 90-day poor outcome. • The clinical-radiomics nomogram may provide personalized risk assessment of 90-day functional outcome for sICH patients.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES We hypothesized that not all small hematomas are benign and that radiomics could predict hematoma expansion (HE) and short-term outcomes in small hematomas. METHODS We analyzed 313 patients with small (<10 ml) intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) who underwent baseline non-contrast CT within 6 h of symptom onset between September 2013 and February 2019. Poor outcome was defined as a Glasgow Outcome Scale score ≤3. A radiomic model and a clinical model were built using least absolute shrinkageand selection operator algorithm or multivariate analysis. A combined model that incorporated the developed radiomic score and clinical factors was then constructed. The area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC) was used to evaluate the performance of these models. RESULTS The addition of radiomics to clinical factors significantly improved the prediction performance of HE compared with the clinical model alone in both the training {AUC, 0.762 [95% CI (0.665-0.859)] versus AUC, 0.651 [95% CI (0.556-0.745)], p = 0.007} and test {AUC, 0.776 [95% CI (0.655-0.897) versus AUC, 0.631 [95% CI (0.451-0.810)], p = 0.001} cohorts. Moreover, the radiomic-based model achieved good discrimination ability of poor outcomes in the 3-10 ml group (AUCs 0.720 and 0.701). CONCLUSION Compared with clinical information alone, combined model had greater potential for discriminating between benign and malignant course in patients with small ICH, particularly 3-10 ml hematomas. ADVANCES IN KNOWLEDGE Radiomics can be used as a supplement to conventional medical imaging, improving clinical decision-making and facilitating personalized treatment in small ICH.

Abstract
RATIONALE AND OBJECTIVES Noncontrast CT-based radiomics signature has shown ability for detecting hematoma expansion (HE) in spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH). We sought to compare its predictive performance with clinical risk factors and develop a clinical-radiomics nomogram to assess the risk of early HE. MATERIALS AND METHODS In total, 1153 patients with ICH who underwent baseline cranial CT within 6 hours and follow-up scans within 72 hours of stroke onset were enrolled, of whom 864 (75%) were assigned to the derivation cohort and 289 (25%) to the validation cohort. Based on LASSO algorithm or stepwise logistic regression analysis, three models (clinical model, radiomics model, and hybrid model) were constructed to predict HE. The Akaike information criterion (AIC) and likelihood ratio test (LRT) were used for comparing the goodness of fit of the three models, and the AUC was used to evaluate their discrimination ability for HE. RESULTS The hybrid model (AIC = 681.426; χ2= 128.779) was the optimal model with the lowest AIC and highest chi-square values compared to the radiomics model (AIC = 767.979; χ2 = 110.234) or the clinical model (AIC = 753.757; χ2 = 56.448). The radiomics model was superior in the prediction of HE to the clinical model in both derivation (p = 0.009) and validation (p = 0.022) cohorts. In both datasets, the clinical-radiomics nomogram showed satisfactory discrimination and calibration for detecting HE (AUC = 0.771, Sensitivity = 87.0%; AUC = 0.820, Sensitivity = 88.1%; respectively). CONCLUSION Among patients with acute ICH, noncontrast CT-based radiomics model outperformed the clinical-only model in the prediction of HE, and the established clinical-radiomics nomogram with favorable performance can offer a noninvasive tool for the risk stratification of HE.

Abstract
Stroke is a leading cause of disability and mortality worldwide, resulting in substantial economic costs for post-stroke care each year. Neuroimaging, such as cranial computed tomography or magnetic resonance imaging, is the backbone of stroke management strategies, which can guide treatment decision-making (thrombolysis or hemostasis) at an early stage. With advances in computational technologies, particularly in machine learning, visual image information can now be converted into numerous quantitative features in an objective, repeatable, and high-throughput manner, in a process known as radiomics. Radiomics is mainly used in the field of oncology, which remains an area of active research. Over the past few years, investigators have attempted to apply radiomics to stroke in the hope of gaining benefits similar to those obtained in cancer management, i.e., in promoting the development of personalized precision medicine. Currently, radiomic analysis has shown promise for a variety of applications in stroke, including the diagnosis of stroke lesions, early prediction of outcomes, and evaluation for long-term prognosis. In this article, we elaborate the contributions of radiomics to stroke, as well as the subprocesses and techniques involved in radiomics studies. We also discuss the potential challenges facing its widespread implementation in routine practice and the directions for future research.

Abstract
Malignant cerebral edema (MCE) after an ischemic stroke results in a poor outcome or death. Early prediction of MCE helps to identify subjects that could benefit from a surgical decompressive craniectomy. Net water uptake (NWU) in an ischemic lesion is a predictor of MCE; however, CT perfusion and lesion segmentation are required. This paper proposes a new Image Patch-based Net Water Uptake (IP-NWU) procedure that only uses non-enhanced admission CT and does not need lesion segmentation. IP-NWU is calculated by comparing the density of ischemic and contralateral normal patches selected from the middle cerebral artery (MCA) area using standard reference images. We also compared IP-NWU with the Segmented Region-based NWU (SR-NWU) procedure in which segmented ischemic regions from follow-up CT images are overlaid onto admission images. Furthermore, IP-NWU and its combination with imaging features are used to construct predictive models of MCE with a radiomics approach. In total, 116 patients with an MCA infarction (39 with MCE and 77 without MCE) were included in the study. IP-NWU was significantly higher for patients with MCE than those without MCE (p < 0.05). IP-NWU can predict MCE with an AUC of 0.86. There was no significant difference between IP-NWU and SR-NWU, nor between their predictive efficacy for MCE. The inter-reader and interoperation agreement of IP-NWU was exceptional according to the Intraclass Correlation Coefficient (ICC) analysis (inter-reader: ICC = 0.92; interoperation: ICC = 0.95). By combining IP-NWU with imaging features through a random forest classifier, the radiomics model achieved the highest AUC (0.96). In summary, IP-NWU and radiomics models that combine IP-NWU with imaging features can precisely predict MCE using only admission non-enhanced CT images scanned within 24 h from onset.

Noncontrast Computed Tomography-Based Radiomics Analysis in Discriminating Early Hematoma Expansion after Spontaneous Intracerebral Hemorrhage. Korean J Radiol 2020; 22:415-424. [PMID: 33169546 PMCID: PMC7909850 DOI: 10.3348/kjr.2020.0254] [Citation(s) in RCA: 32] [Impact Index Per Article: 8.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/10/2020] [Revised: 05/26/2020] [Accepted: 07/02/2020] [Indexed: 01/05/2023] Open
Abstract
Objective To determine whether noncontrast computed tomography (NCCT) models based on multivariable, radiomics features, and machine learning (ML) algorithms could further improve the discrimination of early hematoma expansion (HE) in patients with spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhage (sICH). Materials and Methods We retrospectively reviewed 261 patients with sICH who underwent initial NCCT within 6 hours of ictus and follow-up CT within 24 hours after initial NCCT, between April 2011 and March 2019. The clinical characteristics, imaging signs and radiomics features extracted from the initial NCCT images were used to construct models to discriminate early HE. A clinical-radiologic model was constructed using a multivariate logistic regression (LR) analysis. Radiomics models, a radiomics-radiologic model, and a combined model were constructed in the training cohort (n = 182) and independently verified in the validation cohort (n = 79). Receiver operating characteristic analysis and the area under the curve (AUC) were used to evaluate the discriminative power. Results The AUC of the clinical-radiologic model for discriminating early HE was 0.766. The AUCs of the radiomics model for discriminating early HE built using the LR algorithm in the training and validation cohorts were 0.926 and 0.850, respectively. The AUCs of the radiomics-radiologic model in the training and validation cohorts were 0.946 and 0.867, respectively. The AUCs of the combined model in the training and validation cohorts were 0.960 and 0.867, respectively. Conclusion NCCT models based on multivariable, radiomics features and ML algorithm could improve the discrimination of early HE. The combined model was the best recommended model to identify sICH patients at risk of early HE.
