Radiographic prediction of meningioma grade by semantic and radiomic features.

ABSTRACT:

Objectives

The clinical management of meningioma is guided by tumor grade and biological behavior. Currently, the assessment of tumor grade follows surgical resection and histopathologic review. Reliable techniques for pre-operative determination of tumor grade may enhance clinical decision-making.

Methods

A total of 175 meningioma patients (103 low-grade and 72 high-grade) with pre-operative contrast-enhanced T1-MRI were included. Fifteen radiomic (quantitative) and 10 semantic (qualitative) features were applied to quantify the imaging phenotype. Area under the curve (AUC) and odd ratios (OR) were computed with multiple-hypothesis correction. Random-forest classifiers were developed and validated on an independent dataset (n = 44).

Results

Twelve radiographic features (eight radiomic and four semantic) were significantly associated with meningioma grade. High-grade tumors exhibited necrosis/hemorrhage (ORsem = 6.6, AUCrad = 0.62-0.68), intratumoral heterogeneity (ORsem = 7.9, AUCrad = 0.65), non-spherical shape (AUCrad = 0.61), and larger volumes (AUCrad = 0.69) compared to low-grade tumors. Radiomic and sematic classifiers could significantly predict meningioma grade (AUCsem = 0.76 and AUCrad = 0.78). Furthermore, combining them increased the classification power (AUCradio = 0.86). Clinical variables alone did not effectively predict tumor grade (AUCclin = 0.65) or show complementary value with imaging data (AUCcomb = 0.84).

Conclusions

We found a strong association between imaging features of meningioma and histopathologic grade, with ready application to clinical management. Combining qualitative and quantitative radiographic features significantly improved classification power.

Project description:BackgroundThis study aimed to establish a dedicated deep-learning model (DLM) on routine magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) data to investigate DLM performance in automated detection and segmentation of meningiomas in comparison to manual segmentations. Another purpose of our work was to develop a radiomics model based on the radiomics features extracted from automatic segmentation to differentiate low- and high-grade meningiomas before surgery.MaterialsA total of 326 patients with pathologically confirmed meningiomas were enrolled. Samples were randomly split with a 6:2:2 ratio to the training set, validation set, and test set. Volumetric regions of interest (VOIs) were manually drawn on each slice using the ITK-SNAP software. An automatic segmentation model based on SegResNet was developed for the meningioma segmentation. Segmentation performance was evaluated by dice coefficient and 95% Hausdorff distance. Intra class correlation (ICC) analysis was applied to assess the agreement between radiomic features from manual and automatic segmentations. Radiomics features derived from automatic segmentation were extracted by pyradiomics. After feature selection, a model for meningiomas grading was built.ResultsThe DLM detected meningiomas in all cases. For automatic segmentation, the mean dice coefficient and 95% Hausdorff distance were 0.881 (95% CI: 0.851-0.981) and 2.016 (95% CI:1.439-3.158) in the test set, respectively. Features extracted on manual and automatic segmentation are comparable: the average ICC value was 0.804 (range, 0.636-0.933). Features extracted on manual and automatic segmentation are comparable: the average ICC value was 0.804 (range, 0.636-0.933). For meningioma classification, the radiomics model based on automatic segmentation performed well in grading meningiomas, yielding a sensitivity, specificity, accuracy, and area under the curve (AUC) of 0.778 (95% CI: 0.701-0.856), 0.860 (95% CI: 0.722-0.908), 0.848 (95% CI: 0.715-0.903) and 0.842 (95% CI: 0.807-0.895) in the test set, respectively.ConclusionsThe DLM yielded favorable automated detection and segmentation of meningioma and can help deploy radiomics for preoperative meningioma differentiation in clinical practice.

Project description:Objectives To identify combined clinical, radiomic, and delta-radiomic features in metastatic gastroesophageal adenocarcinomas (GEAs) that may predict survival outcomes. Methods A total of 166 patients with metastatic GEAs on palliative chemotherapy with baseline and treatment/follow-up (8–12 weeks) contrast-enhanced CT were retrospectively identified. Demographic and clinical data were collected. Three-dimensional whole-lesional radiomic analysis was performed on the treatment/follow-up scans. “Delta” radiomic features were calculated based on the change in radiomic parameters compared to the baseline. The univariable analysis (UVA) Cox proportional hazards model was used to select clinical variables predictive of overall survival (OS) and progression-free survival (PFS) (p-value <0.05). The radiomic and “delta” features were then assessed in a multivariable analysis (MVA) Cox model in combination with clinical features identified on UVA. Features with a p-value <0.01 in the MVA models were selected to assess their pairwise correlation. Only non-highly correlated features (Pearson’s correlation coefficient <0.7) were included in the final model. Leave-one-out cross-validation method was used, and the 1-year area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC) was calculated for PFS and OS. Results Of the 166 patients (median age of 59.8 years), 114 (69%) were male, 139 (84%) were non-Asian, and 147 (89%) had an Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status of 0–1. The median PFS and OS on treatment were 3.6 months (95% CI 2.86, 4.63) and 9 months (95% CI 7.49, 11.04), respectively. On UVA, the number of chemotherapy cycles and number of lesions at the end of treatment were associated with both PFS and OS (p < 0.001). ECOG status was associated with OS (p = 0.0063), but not PFS (p = 0.054). Of the delta-radiomic features, delta conventional HUmin, delta gray-level zone length matrix (GLZLM) GLNU, and delta GLZLM LGZE were incorporated into the model for PFS, and delta shape compacity was incorporated in the model for OS. Of the treatment/follow-up radiomic features, shape compacity and neighborhood gray-level dependence matrix (NGLDM) contrast were used in both models. The combined 1-year AUC (Kaplan–Meier estimator) was 0.82 and 0.81 for PFS and OS, respectively. Conclusions A combination of clinical, radiomics, and delta-radiomic features may predict PFS and OS in GEAs with reasonable accuracy.
