Abstract
OBJECTIVES To develop and evaluate a machine learning radiomics model based on biparametric magnetic resonance imaging MRI (bpMRI) to predict bone metastasis (BM) status in newly diagnosed prostate cancer (PCa) patients. METHODS We retrospectively analyzed bpMRI scans of PCa patients from multiple centers between January 2016 and October 2021. 348 PCa patients were recruited from two institutions for this study. The first institution contributed 284 patients, stratified and randomly divided into training and internal validation cohorts at a 7:3 ratio. The remaining 64 patients were sourced from the second institution and comprised the external validation cohort. Radiomics features were extracted from axial T2-weighted imaging (T2WI) and diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) tumor regions. We developed the radiomics prediction model for BM in the training cohort and validated it in the internal and external validation cohorts. As a benchmark, we trained the logistic regression model with lasso feature reduction (LFR-LRM) in the training cohort and further compared it with Naive Bayes, eXtreme Gradient Boosting (XGboost), Random Forest (RF), GBDT, SVM, Adaboost, and KNN algorithms and validated in both the internal and external cohorts. The performance of several predictive models was assessed by receiver operating characteristic (ROC). RESULTS The LFR-LRM model achieved an area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC) of 0.89 (95% CI: 0.822-0.974) and an accuracy of 0.828 (95% CI: 0.713-0.911). The AUC and accuracy in external validation were 0.866 (95% CI: 0.784-0.948) and 0.769 (95% CI: 0.648-0.864), respectively. The RF and XGBoost models outperformed the LFR-LRM, with AUCs of 0.907 (95% CI: 0.863-0.949) and 0.928 (95% CI: 0.882-0.974) and accuracies of 0.831 (95% CI: 0.727-0.907) and 0.884 (95% CI: 0.792-0.946). External validation for these models yielded AUCs and accuracies of 0.911 (95% CI: 0.861-0.966), 0.921 (95% CI: 0.889-0.953), and 0.846 (95% CI: 0.735-0.923) and 0.876 (95% CI: 0.771-0.945), respectively. CONCLUSIONS The XGboost machine learning model is more accurate than LFR-LRM for predicting BM in patients with newly confirmed PCa.

Characterization of parotid gland tumors: Whole-tumor histogram analysis of diffusion weighted imaging, diffusion kurtosis imaging, and intravoxel incoherent motion - A pilot study. Eur J Radiol 2024; 170:111199. [PMID: 38104494 DOI: 10.1016/j.ejrad.2023.111199] [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: 08/13/2023] [Revised: 10/13/2023] [Accepted: 11/13/2023] [Indexed: 12/19/2023]
Abstract
PURPOSE To investigate the diagnostic performance of histogram features of diffusion parameters in characterizating parotid gland tumors. METHOD From December 2018 to January 2023, patients who underwent diffusion weighted imaging (DWI), diffusion kurtosis imaging (DKI), and intravoxel incoherent motion (IVIM) were consecutively enrolled in this retrospective study. The histogram features of diffusion parameters, including apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC), diffusion coefficient (Dk), diffusion kurtosis (K), pure diffusion coefficient (D), pseudo-diffusion coefficient (DP), and perfusion fraction (FP) were analyzed. The Mann-Whitney U test was used for comparison between benign parotid gland tumors (BPGTs) and malignant parotid gland tumors (MPGTs). Receiver operating characteristic curve and logistic regression analysis were used to identify the differential diagnostic performance. The Spearman's correlation coefficient was used to analyze the correlation between diffusion parameters and Ki-67 labeling index. RESULTS For diffusion MRI, twenty-three histogram features of diffusion parameters showed significant differences between BPGTs and MPGTs (all P < 0.05). Compared with the DWI model, the IVIM model and combined model had better diagnostic specificity (58 %, 94 %, and 88 %, respectively; both corrected P < 0.001) and accuracy (64 %, 89 %, and 86 %, respectively; both corrected P = 0.006). The combined model was superior to the single DWI model with improved IDI (IDI improvement 0.25). Significant correlations were found between Ki-67 and ADCmean, Dkmean, Kmean, and Dmean (r = -0.57 to 0.53; all P < 0.05). CONCLUSIONS Whole-tumor histogram analysis of IVIM and combined diffusion model could further improve the diagnostic performance for differentiating BPGTs from MPGTs.

Jpn J Radiol 2023; 41:180-193. [PMID: 36255600 PMCID: PMC9889447 DOI: 10.1007/s11604-022-01346-2] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/09/2022] [Accepted: 09/28/2022] [Indexed: 02/04/2023]
Abstract
PURPOSE To investigate the potential of histogram analysis based on diffusion kurtosis imaging (DKI) in evaluating renal function and fibrosis associated with chronic kidney disease (CKD). MATERIALS AND METHODS Thirty-six CKD patients were enrolled, and DKI was performed in all patients before the renal biopsy. The histogram parameters of diffusivity (D) and kurtosis (K) were obtained using FireVoxel. The histogram parameters between the stable [estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) ≥ 60 ml/min/1.73 m2] and impaired (eGFR < 60 ml/min/1.73 m2) eGFR group were compared. Besides, patients were classified into mild, moderate, and severe fibrosis group using a semi-quantitative standard. The correlations of histogram parameters with eGFR and fibrosis scores were investigated and the diagnostic performances of histogram parameters in assessing renal dysfunction and fibrosis were analyzed. The added value of combination of most significant parameter with 24 h urinary protein (24 h-UPRO) in evaluating fibrosis was also explored. RESULTS Seven D histogram parameters in cortex (mean, median, 10th, 25th, 75th, 90th percentiles and entropy), two D histogram parameters in medulla (75th, 90th percentiles), seven K histogram parameters in cortex (mean, min, median, 10th, 25th, 75th, 90th percentiles) and three K histogram parameters in medulla (mean, median, 25th percentile) were significantly different between the two groups. The Dmean of cortex was the most relevant parameter to eGFR (r = 0.648, P < 0.001) and had the largest area under the curve (AUC) for differentiating the stable from impaired eGFR group [AUC = 0.889; 95% confidence interval (CI) 0.728-0.970]. The K90th of cortex presented the strongest correlation with fibrosis scores (r = 0.575, P < 0.001) and achieved the largest AUC for distinguishing the mild from moderate to severe fibrosis group (AUC = 0.849, 95% CI 0.706-0.993). Combining the K90th in cortex with 24 h-UPRO gained statistically higher AUC value (AUC = 0.880, 95% CI 0.763-0.996). CONCLUSION Histogram analysis based on DKI is practicable for the noninvasive assessment of renal function and fibrosis in CKD patients.

Abstract
Texture analysis has arisen as a tool to explore the amount of data contained in images that cannot be explored by humans visually. Radiomics is a method that extracts a large number of features from radiographic medical images using data-characterisation algorithms. These features, termed radiomic features, have the potential to uncover disease characteristics. The goal of both radiomics and texture analysis is to go beyond size or human-eye based semantic descriptors, to enable the non-invasive extraction of quantitative radiological data to correlate them with clinical outcomes or pathological characteristics. In the latest years there has been a flourishing sub-field of radiology where texture analysis and radiomics have been used in many settings. It is difficult for the clinical radiologist to cope with such amount of data in all the different radiological sub-fields and to identify the most significant papers. The aim of this review is to provide a tool to better understand the basic principles underlining texture analysis and radiological data mining and a summary of the most significant papers of the latest years.

The Histogram Analysis of Intravoxel Incoherent Motion-Kurtosis Model in the Diagnosis and Grading of Prostate Cancer-A Preliminary Study. Front Oncol 2021; 11:604428. [PMID: 34778020 PMCID: PMC8579734 DOI: 10.3389/fonc.2021.604428] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/09/2020] [Accepted: 10/06/2021] [Indexed: 12/09/2022] Open
Abstract
Objectives This study was conducted in order to explore the value of histogram analysis of the intravoxel incoherent motion-kurtosis (IVIM-kurtosis) model in the diagnosis and grading of prostate cancer (PCa), compared with monoexponential model (MEM). Materials and Methods Thirty patients were included in this study. Single-shot echo-planar imaging (SS-EPI) diffusion-weighted images (b-values of 0, 20, 50, 100, 200, 500, 1,000, 1,500, 2,000 s/mm2) were acquired. The pathologies were confirmed by in-bore MR-guided biopsy. The postprocessing and measurements were processed using the software tool Matlab R2015b for the IVIM-kurtosis model and MEM. Regions of interest (ROIs) were drawn manually. Mean values of D, D*, f, K, ADC, and their histogram parameters were acquired. The values of these parameters in PCa and benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH)/prostatitis were compared. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves were used to investigate the diagnostic efficiency. The Spearman test was used to evaluate the correlation of these parameters and Gleason scores (GS) of PCa. Results For the IVIM-kurtosis model, D (mean, 10th, 25th, 50th, 75th, 90th), D* (90th), and f (10th) were significantly lower in PCa than in BPH/prostatitis, while D (skewness), D* (kurtosis), and K (mean, 75th, 90th) were significantly higher in PCa than in BPH/prostatitis. For MEM, ADC (mean, 10th, 25th, 50th, 75th, 90th) was significantly lower in PCa than in BPH/prostatitis. The area under the ROC curve (AUC) of the IVIM-kurtosis model was higher than MEM, without significant differences (z = 1.761, P = 0.0783). D (mean, 50th, 75th, 90th), D* (mean, 10th, 25th, 50th, 75th), and f (skewness, kurtosis) correlated negatively with GS, while D (kurtosis), D* (skewness, kurtosis), f (mean, 75th, 90th), and K (mean, 75th, 90th) correlated positively with GS. The histogram parameters of ADC did not show correlations with GS. Conclusion The IVIM-kurtosis model has potential value in the differential diagnosis of PCa and BPH/prostatitis. IVIM-kurtosis histogram analysis may provide more information in the grading of PCa than MEM.
