World J Clin Cases 2024; 12:5908-5921. [DOI: 10.12998/wjcc.v12.i26.5908] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/26/2024] [Revised: 06/19/2024] [Accepted: 07/03/2024] [Indexed: 07/19/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Preoperative risk stratification is significant for the management of endometrial cancer (EC) patients. Radiomics based on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in combination with clinical features may be useful to predict the risk grade of EC.
AIM To construct machine learning models to predict preoperative risk stratification of patients with EC based on radiomics features extracted from MRI.
METHODS The study comprised 112 EC patients. The participants were randomly separated into training and validation groups with a 7:3 ratio. Logistic regression analysis was applied to uncover independent clinical predictors. These predictors were then used to create a clinical nomogram. Extracted radiomics features from the T2-weighted imaging and diffusion weighted imaging sequences of MRI images, the Mann-Whitney U test, Pearson test, and least absolute shrinkage and selection operator analysis were employed to evaluate the relevant radiomic features, which were subsequently utilized to generate a radiomic signature. Seven machine learning strategies were used to construct radiomic models that relied on the screening features. The logistic regression method was used to construct a composite nomogram that incorporated both the radiomic signature and clinical independent risk indicators.
RESULTS Having an accuracy of 0.82 along with an area under the curve (AUC) of 0.915 [95% confidence interval (CI): 0.806-0.986], the random forest method trained on radiomics characteristics performed better than expected. The predictive accuracy of radiomics prediction models surpassed that of both the clinical nomogram (AUC: 0.75, 95%CI: 0.611-0.899) and the combined nomogram (AUC: 0.869, 95%CI: 0.702-0.986) that integrated clinical parameters and radiomic signature.
CONCLUSION The MRI-based radiomics model may be an effective tool for preoperative risk grade prediction in EC patients.

Abstract
Background Medium- to high-risk classification-gastrointestinal stromal tumors (MH-GIST) have a high recurrence rate and are difficult to treat. This study aims to predict the recurrence of MH-GIST within 3 years after surgery based on clinical data and preoperative Delta-CT Radiomics modeling. Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted on clinical imaging data of 242 cases confirmed to have MH-GIST after surgery, including 92 cases of recurrence and 150 cases of normal. The training set and test set were established using a 7:3 ratio and time cutoff point. In the training set, multiple prediction models were established based on clinical data of MH-GIST and the changes in radiomics texture of enhanced computed tomography (CT) at different time periods (Delta-CT radiomics). The area under curve (AUC) values of each model were compared using the Delong test, and the clinical net benefit of the model was tested using decision curve analysis (DCA). Then, the model was externally validated in the test set, and a novel nomogram predicting the recurrence of MH-GIST was finally created. Results Univariate analysis confirmed that tumor volume, tumor location, neutrophil-lymphocyte ratio (NLR), platelet lymphocyte ratio (PLR), diabetes, spicy hot pot, CT enhancement mode, and Radscore 1/2 were predictive factors for MH-GIST recurrence (P < .05). The combined model based on these above factors had significantly higher predictive performance (AUC = 0.895, 95% confidence interval [CI] = [0.839-0.937]) than the clinical data model (AUC = 0.735, 95% CI = [0.6 62-0.800]) and radiomics model (AUC = 0.842, 95% CI = [0.779-0.894]). Decision curve analysis also confirmed the higher clinical net benefit of the combined model, and the same results were validated in the test set. The novel nomogram developed based on the combined model helps predict the recurrence of MH-GIST. Conclusions The nomogram of clinical and Delta-CT radiomics has important clinical value in predicting the recurrence of MH-GIST, providing reliable data reference for its diagnosis, treatment, and clinical decision-making.

Prediction of high Ki-67 proliferation index of gastrointestinal stromal tumors based on CT at non-contrast-enhanced and different contrast-enhanced phases. Eur Radiol 2024; 34:2223-2232. [PMID: 37773213 PMCID: PMC10957607 DOI: 10.1007/s00330-023-10249-3] [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: 05/27/2023] [Revised: 07/12/2023] [Accepted: 07/23/2023] [Indexed: 10/01/2023]
Abstract
OBJECTIVES To evaluate and analyze radiomics models based on non-contrast-enhanced computed tomography (CT) and different phases of contrast-enhanced CT in predicting Ki-67 proliferation index (PI) among patients with pathologically confirmed gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs). METHODS A total of 383 patients with pathologically proven GIST were divided into a training set (n = 218, vendor 1) and 2 validation sets (n = 96, vendor 2; n = 69, vendors 3-5). Radiomics features extracted from the most recent non-contrast-enhanced and three contrast-enhanced CT scan prior to pathological examination. Random forest models were trained for each phase to predict tumors with high Ki-67 proliferation index (Ki-67>10%) and were evaluated using the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC) and other metrics on the validation sets. RESULTS Out of 107 radiomics features extracted from each phase of CT images, four were selected for analysis. The model trained using the non-contrast-enhanced phase achieved an AUC of 0.792 in the training set and 0.822 and 0.711 in the two validation sets, similar to models trained on different contrast-enhanced phases (p > 0.05). Several relevant features, including NGTDM Busyness and tumor size, remained predictive in non-contrast-enhanced and different contrast-enhanced images. CONCLUSION The results of this study indicate that a radiomics model based on non-contrast-enhanced CT matches that of models based on different phases of contrast-enhanced CT in predicting the Ki-67 PI of GIST. GIST may exhibit similar radiological patterns irrespective of the use of contrast agent, and such radiomics features may help quantify these patterns to predict Ki-67 PI of GISTs. CLINICAL RELEVANCE STATEMENT GIST may exhibit similar radiomics patterns irrespective of contrast agent; thus, radiomics models based on non-contrast-enhanced CT could be an alternative for risk stratification in GIST patients with contraindication to contrast agent. KEY POINTS • Performance of radiomics models in predicting Ki-67 proliferation based on different CT phases is evaluated. • Non-contrast-enhanced CT-based radiomics models performed similarly to contrast-enhanced CT in risk stratification in GIST patients. • NGTDM Busyness remains stable to contrast agents in GISTs in radiomics models.

Abstract
PURPOSE This study aimed to use conventional ultrasound features, ultrasound radiomics, and machine learning algorithms to establish a predictive model to assess the risk of post-surgical recurrence of gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs). METHODS This retrospective analysis included 230 patients with pathologically diagnosed GISTs. Radiomic features were extracted from manually annotated images. Radiomic features plus conventional ultrasound features were selected using the SelectKbest analysis of variance and stratified tenfold cross-validation recursive elimination methods. Finally, five different machine learning algorithms (logistic regression [LR], support vector machine [SVM], random forest [RF], extreme gradient boosting [XGBoost], and multilayer perceptron [MLP]) were established to predict risk stratification of GISTs. The predictive performance of the established model was mainly evaluated based on the area under the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve (AUC) and accuracy, whereas the predictive performance of the optimal machine learning algorithm and a radiologist's subjective assessment were compared using McNemar's test. RESULTS Seven radiomics features and one conventional ultrasound feature were selected to construct the machine learning models for GIST risk classification. The mentioned five machine learning models were able to predict the malignant potential of GISTs. LR and SVM outperformed other classifiers on the test set, with LR achieving an accuracy of 0.852 (AUC, 0.881; sensitivity, 0.871; specificity, 0.826) and SVM achieving an accuracy of 0.852 (AUC, 0.879; sensitivity, 0.839; specificity, 0.870), and proved significantly better than the radiologist (accuracy, 0.691; sensitivity, 0.645; specificity, 0.813). CONCLUSION Machine learning-based ultrasound radiomics features are able to noninvasively predict the biological risk of GISTs.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Gastrointestinal stromal tumor (GIST) is a rare gastrointestinal mesenchymal tumor with potential malignancy. Once the tumor ruptures, regardless of tumor size and mitotic number, it can be identified into a high-risk group. It is of great significance for the diagnosis, treatment, and prognosis of GIST if non-invasive examination can be performed before surgery to accurately assess the risk of tumor. AIM To identify the factors associated with GIST rupture and pathological risk. METHODS A cohort of 50 patients with GISTs, as confirmed by postoperative pathology, was selected from our hospital. Clinicopathological and computed tomography data of the patients were collected. Logistic regression analysis was used to evaluate factors associated with GIST rupture and pathological risk grade. RESULTS Pathological risk grade, tumor diameter, tumor morphology, internal necrosis, gas-liquid interface, and Ki-67 index exhibited significant associations with GIST rupture (P < 0.05). Gender, tumor diameter, tumor rupture, and Ki-67 index were found to be correlated with pathological risk grade of GIST (P < 0.05). Multifactorial logistic regression analysis revealed that male gender and tumor diameter ≥ 10 cm were independent predictors of a high pathological risk grade of GIST [odds ratio (OR) = 11.12, 95% confidence interval (95%CI): 1.81-68.52, P = 0.01; OR = 22.96, 95%CI: 2.19-240.93, P = 0.01]. Tumor diameter ≥ 10 cm, irregular shape, internal necrosis, gas-liquid interface, and Ki-67 index ≥ 10 were identified as independent predictors of a high risk of GIST rupture (OR = 9.67, 95%CI: 2.15-43.56, P = 0.01; OR = 35.44, 95%CI: 4.01-313.38, P < 0.01; OR = 18.75, 95%CI: 3.40-103.34, P < 0.01; OR = 27.00, 95%CI: 3.10-235.02, P < 0.01; OR = 4.43, 95%CI: 1.10-17.92, P = 0.04). CONCLUSION Tumor diameter, tumor morphology, internal necrosis, gas-liquid, and Ki-67 index are associated with GIST rupture, while gender and tumor diameter are linked to the pathological risk of GIST. These findings contribute to our understanding of GIST and may inform non-invasive examination strategies and risk assessment for this condition.

Abstract
PURPOSE To discriminate the risk stratification in gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs) by preoperatively constructing a model of nonenhanced computed tomography (NECT). METHODS A total of 111 GISTs patients (77 in the training group and 34 in the validation Group) from two hospitals between 2015 and 2022 were collected retrospectively. One thousand and thirty-seven radiomics features were extracted from non-contract CT images, and the optimal radiomics signature was determined by univariate analysis and LASSO regression. The radiomics model was developed and validated from the ten optimal radiomics features by three methods. Covariates (clinical features, CT findings, and immunohistochemical characteristics) were collected to establish the clinical model, and both the radiomics features and the covariates were used to build the combined model. The effectiveness of the three models was evaluated by the Delong test. RESULTS The experimental results showed that the clinical models (75.3%, 70.6%), the radiomics models (79.2%, 79.4%) and the combined models (81.8%, 82.4%) all had high accuracy in predicting the pathological risk of GIST in both training and validation groups. The AUC values of the combined models were significantly higher in both the training groups (0.921 vs 0.822, p= 0.032) and the validation groups (0.913 vs 0.792, p= 0.019) than that of the clinical models. According to the calibration curve, the combined model nomogram is clinically useful. CONCLUSIONS The clinical-radiomics combined model and based on NECT performed well in discriminating the risk stratification in GISTs. As a quantitative technique, radiomics is capable of predicting the malignant potential and guiding treatment preoperatively.

Abstract
Gastrointestinal stromal tumours are rare mesenchymal neoplasms originating from the Cajal cells and represent the most common sarcomas in the gastroenteric tract. Symptoms may be absent or non-specific, ranging from fatigue and weight loss to acute abdomen. Nowadays endoscopy, echoendoscopy, contrast-enhanced computed tomography, magnetic resonance imaging and positron emission tomography are the main methods for diagnosis. Because of their rarity, these neoplasms may not be included immediately in the differential diagnosis of a solitary abdominal mass. Radiomics is an emerging technique that can extract medical imaging information, not visible to the human eye, transforming it into quantitative data. The purpose of this review is to demonstrate how radiomics can improve the already known imaging techniques by providing useful tools for the diagnosis, treatment, and prognosis of these tumours.

Abstract
Objective gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs) with KIT exon 11 deletions have more malignant clinical outcomes. A radiomics model was constructed for the preoperative prediction of KIT exon 11 deletion in GISTs. Methods Overall, 126 patients with GISTs who underwent preoperative enhanced CT were included. GISTs were manually segmented using ITK-SNAP in the arterial phase (AP) and portal venous phase (PVP) images of enhanced CT. Features were extracted using Anaconda (version 4.2.0) with PyRadiomics. Radiomics models were constructed by LASSO. The clinical-radiomics model (combined model) was constructed by combining the clinical model with the best diagnostic effective radiomics model. ROC curves were used to compare the diagnostic effectiveness of radiomics model, clinical model, and combined model. Diagnostic effectiveness among radiomics model, clinical model and combine model were analyzed in external cohort (n=57). Statistics were carried out using R 3.6.1. Results The Radscore showed favorable diagnostic efficacy. Among all radiomics models, the AP-PVP radiomics model exhibited excellent performance in the training cohort, with an AUC of 0.787 (95% CI: 0.687-0.866), which was verified in the test cohort (AUC=0.775, 95% CI: 0.608-0.895). Clinical features were also analyzed. Among the radiomics, clinical and combined models, the combined model showed favorable diagnostic efficacy in the training (AUC=0.863) and test cohorts (AUC=0.851). The combined model yielded the largest AUC of 0.829 (95% CI, 0.621-0.950) for the external validation of the combined model. GIST patients could be divided into high or low risk subgroups of recurrence and mortality by the Radscore. Conclusion The radiomics models based on enhanced CT for predicting KIT exon 11 deletion mutations have good diagnostic performance.

Abstract
Gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs) arise from the interstitial cells of Cajal in the gastrointestinal tract and are the most common intestinal tumors. Usually GISTs are asymptomatic, especially small tumors that may not cause any symptoms and may be found accidentally on abdominal CT scans. Discovering of inhibitor of receptor tyrosine kinases has changed the outcome of patients with high-risk GISTs. This paper will focus on the role of imaging in diagnosis, characterization and follow-up. We shall also report our local experience in radiomics evaluation of GISTs.

Risk stratification for 1- to 2-cm gastric gastrointestinal stromal tumors: visual assessment of CT and EUS high-risk features versus CT radiomics analysis. Eur Radiol 2023; 33:2768-2778. [PMID: 36449061 DOI: 10.1007/s00330-022-09228-x] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/20/2022] [Revised: 08/15/2022] [Accepted: 10/09/2022] [Indexed: 12/03/2022]
Abstract
OBJECTIVES To investigate the ability of CT and endoscopic sonography (EUS) in predicting the malignant risk of 1-2-cm gastric gastrointestinal stromal tumors (gGISTs) and to clarify whether radiomics could be applied for risk stratification. METHODS A total of 151 pathologically confirmed 1-2-cm gGISTs from seven institutions were identified by contrast-enhanced CT scans between January 2010 and March 2021. A detailed description of EUS morphological features was available for 73 gGISTs. The association between EUS or CT high-risk features and pathological malignant potential was evaluated. gGISTs were randomly divided into three groups to build the radiomics model, including 74 in the training cohort, 37 in validation cohort, and 40 in testing cohort. The ROIs covering the whole tumor volume were delineated on the CT images of the portal venous phase. The Pearson test and least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) algorithm were used for feature selection, and the ROC curves were used to evaluate the model performance. RESULTS The presence of EUS- and CT-based morphological high-risk features, including calcification, necrosis, intratumoral heterogeneity, irregular border, or surface ulceration, did not differ between very-low and intermediate risk 1-2-cm gGISTs (p > 0.05). The radiomics model consisting of five radiomics features showed favorable performance in discrimination of malignant 1-2-cm gGISTs, with the AUC of the training, validation, and testing cohort as 0.866, 0.812, and 0.766, respectively. CONCLUSIONS Instead of CT- and EUS-based morphological high-risk features, the CT radiomics model could potentially be applied for preoperative risk stratification of 1-2-cm gGISTs. KEY POINTS • The presence of EUS- and CT-based morphological high-risk factors, including calcification, necrosis, intratumoral heterogeneity, irregular border, or surface ulceration, did not correlate with the pathological malignant potential of 1-2-cm gGISTs. • The CT radiomics model could potentially be applied for preoperative risk stratification of 1-2-cm gGISTs.

[PMID: 36052224 PMCID: PMC9425090 DOI: 10.3389/fonc.2022.966743] [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: 06/11/2022] [Accepted: 07/25/2022] [Indexed: 11/24/2022] Open
Abstract
Purpose This study was to investigate the diagnostic efficacy of radiomics models based on the enhanced CT images in differentiating the malignant risk of gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GIST) in comparison with the clinical indicators model and traditional CT diagnostic criteria. Materials and methods A total of 342 patients with GISTs confirmed histopathologically were enrolled from five medical centers. Data of patients wrom two centers comprised the training group (n=196), and data from the remaining three centers constituted the validation group (n=146). After CT image segmentation and feature extraction and selection, the arterial phase model and venous phase model were established. The maximum diameter of the tumor and internal necrosis were used to establish a clinical indicators model. The traditional CT diagnostic criteria were established for the classification of malignant potential of tumor. The performance of the four models was assessed using the receiver operating characteristics curve. Reuslts In the training group, the area under the curves(AUCs) of the arterial phase model, venous phase model, clinical indicators model, and traditional CT diagnostic criteria were 0.930 [95% confidence interval (CI): 0.895-0.965), 0.933 (95%CI 0.898-0.967), 0.917 (95%CI 0.872-0.961) and 0.782 (95%CI 0.717-0.848), respectively. In the validation group, the AUCs of the models were 0.960 (95%CI 0.930-0.990), 0.961 (95% CI 0.930-0.992), 0.922 (95%CI 0.884-0.960) and 0.768 (95%CI 0.692-0.844), respectively. No significant difference was detected in the AUC between the arterial phase model, venous phase model, and clinical indicators model by the DeLong test, whereas a significant difference was observed between the traditional CT diagnostic criteria and the other three models. Conclusion The radiomics model using the morphological features of GISTs play a significant role in tumor risk stratification and can provide a reference for clinical diagnosis and treatment plan.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To explore the application value of the radiomics method based on enhanced T1WI in glioma grading. MATERIALS AND METHODS A retrospective analysis was performed using data of 114 patients with glioma, which was confirmed using surgery and pathological tests, at our hospital between January 2017 and November 2020. The patients were randomly divided into the training and test groups in a ratio of 7 : 3. The Analysis Kit (AK) software was used for radiomic analysis, and a total of 461 tumor texture features were extracted. Spearman correlation analysis and the least absolute shrinkage and selection (LASSO) algorithm were employed to perform feature dimensionality reduction on the training group. A radiomics model was then constructed for glioma grading, and the validation group was used for verification. RESULTS The area under the ROC curve (AUC) of the proposed model was calculated to identify its performance in the training group, which was 0.95 (95% CI = 0.905-0.994), accuracy was 84.8%, sensitivity was 100%, and specificity was 77.8%. The AUC of the validation group was 0.952 (95% CI = 0.871-1.000), accuracy was 93.9%, sensitivity was 90.0%, and specificity was 95.6%. CONCLUSIONS The radiomics model based on enhanced T1WI improved the accuracy of glioma grading and better assisted clinical decision-making.
