Abstract
OBJECTIVE To investigate the value of Computed Tomography (CT) radiomics derived from different peritumoral volumes of interest (VOIs) in predicting epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) mutation status in lung adenocarcinoma patients. MATERIALS AND METHODS A retrospective cohort of 779 patients who had pathologically confirmed lung adenocarcinoma were enrolled. 640 patients were randomly divided into a training set, a validation set, and an internal testing set (3:1:1), and the remaining 139 patients were defined as an external testing set. The intratumoral VOI (VOI_I) was manually delineated on the thin-slice CT images, and seven peritumoral VOIs (VOI_P) were automatically generated with 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 10, and 15 mm expansion along the VOI_I. 1454 radiomic features were extracted from each VOI. The t-test, the least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO), and the minimum redundancy maximum relevance (mRMR) algorithm were used for feature selection, followed by the construction of radiomics models (VOI_I model, VOI_P model and combined model). The performance of the models were evaluated by the area under the curve (AUC). RESULTS 399 patients were classified as EGFR mutant (EGFR+), while 380 were wild-type (EGFR-). In the training and validation sets, internal and external testing sets, VOI4 (intratumoral and peritumoral 4 mm) model achieved the best predictive performance, with AUCs of 0.877, 0.727, and 0.701, respectively, outperforming the VOI_I model (AUCs of 0.728, 0.698, and 0.653, respectively). CONCLUSIONS Radiomics extracted from peritumoral region can add extra value in predicting EGFR mutation status of lung adenocarcinoma patients, with the optimal peritumoral range of 4 mm.
