Building CT Radiomics-Based Models for Preoperatively Predicting Malignant Potential and Mitotic Count of Gastrointestinal Stromal Tumors.

ABSTRACT: PURPOSE:To build radiomic prediction models using contrast-enhanced computed tomography (CE-CT) to preoperatively predict malignant potential and mitotic count of gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs). PATIENTS AND METHODS:A total of 333 GISTs patients were retrospectively included in our study. Radiomic features were extracted from the preoperative CE-CT images. According to postoperative pathology, patients were categorized by malignant potential and mitotic count, respectively. The most valuable radiomic features were chosen to build a logistic regression model to predict the malignant potential and a random forest classifier model to predict the mitotic count. The performance of radiomic models was assessed with the receiver operating characteristics curve. Our study further developed a radiomic nomogram to preoperatively predict malignant potential in a personalized way for patients with GISTs. RESULTS:The predictive model was built to discriminate high- from low-malignant potential GISTs with an area under the curve (AUC) of 0.882 (95% CI 0.823-0.942) in the training set and 0.920 (95% CI 0.870-0.971) in the validation set. Moreover, the other radiomic model was built to differentiate high- from low-mitotic count GISTs with an AUC of 0.820 (95% CI 0.753-0.887) in the training set and 0.769 (95% CI 0.654-0.883) in the validation set. CONCLUSION:The radiomic models using CE-CT showed a good predictive performance for preoperative risk stratification of GISTs and hold great potential for personalized clinical decision making.

Project description:BackgroundWe conduct a study in developing and validating four MRI-based radiomics models to preoperatively predict the risk classification of gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs).MethodsForty-one patients (low-risk = 17, intermediate-risk = 13, high-risk = 11) underwent MRI before surgery between September 2013 and March 2019 in this retrospective study. The Kruskal-Wallis test with Bonferonni correction and variance threshold was used to select appropriate features, and the Random Forest model (three classification model) was used to select features among the high-risk, intermediate-risk, and low-risk of GISTs. The predictive performance of the models built by the Random Forest was estimated by a 5-fold cross validation (5FCV). Their performance was estimated using the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve, summarized as the area under the ROC curve (AUC). Area under the curve (AUC), accuracy, sensitivity, and specificity for risk classification were reported. Linear discriminant analysis (LDA) was used to assess the discriminative ability of these radiomics models.ResultsThe high-risk, intermediate-risk, and low-risk of GISTs were well classified by radiomics models, the micro-average of ROC curves was 0.85, 0.81, 0.87 and 0.94 for T1WI, T2WI, ADC and combined three MR sequences. And ROC curves achieved excellent AUCs for T1WI (0.85, 0.75 and 0.82), T2WI (0.69, 0.78 and 0.78), ADC (0.85, 0.77 and 0.80) and combined three MR sequences (0.96, 0.92, 0.81) for the diagnosis of high-risk, intermediate-risk, and low-risk of GISTs, respectively. In addition, LDA demonstrated the different risk of GISTs were correctly classified by radiomics analysis (61.0% for T1WI, 70.7% for T2WI, 83.3% for ADC, and 78.9% for the combined three MR sequences).ConclusionsRadiomics models based on a single sequence and combined three MR sequences can be a noninvasive method to evaluate the risk classification of GISTs, which may help the treatment of GISTs patients in the future.

Project description:ObjectiveThe mitotic count of gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GIST) is closely associated with the risk of planting and metastasis. The purpose of this study was to develop a predictive model for the mitotic index of local primary GIST, based on deep learning algorithm.Materials and methodsAbdominal contrast-enhanced CT images of 148 pathologically confirmed GIST cases were retrospectively collected for the development of a deep learning classification algorithm. The areas of GIST masses on the CT images were retrospectively labelled by an experienced radiologist. The postoperative pathological mitotic count was considered as the gold standard (high mitotic count, > 5/50 high-power fields [HPFs]; low mitotic count, ≤ 5/50 HPFs). A binary classification model was trained on the basis of the VGG16 convolutional neural network, using the CT images with the training set (n = 108), validation set (n = 20), and the test set (n = 20). The sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value (PPV), and negative predictive value (NPV) were calculated at both, the image level and the patient level. The receiver operating characteristic curves were generated on the basis of the model prediction results and the area under curves (AUCs) were calculated. The risk categories of the tumors were predicted according to the Armed Forces Institute of Pathology criteria.ResultsAt the image level, the classification prediction results of the mitotic counts in the test cohort were as follows: sensitivity 85.7% (95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.834-0.877), specificity 67.5% (95% CI: 0.636-0.712), PPV 82.1% (95% CI: 0.797-0.843), NPV 73.0% (95% CI: 0.691-0.766), and AUC 0.771 (95% CI: 0.750-0.791). At the patient level, the classification prediction results in the test cohort were as follows: sensitivity 90.0% (95% CI: 0.541-0.995), specificity 70.0% (95% CI: 0.354-0.919), PPV 75.0% (95% CI: 0.428-0.933), NPV 87.5% (95% CI: 0.467-0.993), and AUC 0.800 (95% CI: 0.563-0.943).ConclusionWe developed and preliminarily verified the GIST mitotic count binary prediction model, based on the VGG convolutional neural network. The model displayed a good predictive performance.

Project description:This work seeks the development and validation of radiomics signatures from nonenhanced computed tomography (CT, NE-RS) to preoperatively predict the malignancy degree of gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs) and the comparison of these signatures with those from contrast-enhanced CT. A dataset for 370 GIST patients was collected from four centers. This dataset was divided into cohorts for training, as well as internal and external validation. The minimum-redundancy maximum-relevance algorithm and the least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) algorithm were used to filter unstable features. (a) NE-RS and radiomics signature from contrast-enhanced CT (CE-RS) were built and compared for the prediction of malignancy potential of GIST based on the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC). (b) The radiomics model was also developed with both the tumor size and NE-RS. The AUC values were comparable between NE-RS and CE-RS in the training (.965 vs .936; P = .251), internal validation (.967 vs .960; P = .801), and external validation (.941 vs .899; P = .173) cohorts in diagnosis of high malignancy potential of GISTs. We next focused on the NE-RS. With 0.185 selected as the cutoff of NE-RS for diagnosis of the malignancy potential of GISTs, accuracy, sensitivity, and specificity for diagnosis high-malignancy potential GIST was 90.0%, 88.2%, and 92.3%, respectively, in the training cohort. For the internal validation set, the corresponding metrics are 89.1%, 94.9%, and 80.0%, respectively. The corresponding metrics for the external cohort are 84.6%, 76.1%, and 91.0%, respectively. Compared with only NE-RS, the radiomics model increased the sensitivity in the diagnosis of GIST with high-malignancy potential by 5.9% (P = .025), 2.5% (P = .317), 10.5% (P = .008) for the training set, internal validation set, and external validation set, respectively. The NE-RS had comparable prediction efficiency in the diagnosis of high-risk GISTs to CE-RS. The NE-RS and radiomics model both had excellent accuracy in predicting malignancy potential of GISTs.

Project description:ObjectiveThis study aims to investigate the value of machine learning models based on clinical-radiological features and multiphasic CT radiomics features in the differentiation of benign parotid tumors (BPTs) and malignant parotid tumors (MPTs).MethodsThis retrospective study included 312 patients (205 cases of BPTs and 107 cases of MPTs) who underwent multiphasic enhanced CT examinations, which were randomly divided into training (N = 218) and test (N = 94) sets. The radiomics features were extracted from the plain, arterial, and venous phases. The synthetic minority oversampling technique was used to balance minority class samples in the training set. Feature selection methods were done using the least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO), mutual information (MI), and recursive feature extraction (RFE). Two machine learning classifiers, support vector machine (SVM), and logistic regression (LR), were then combined in pairs with three feature selection methods to build different radiomics models. Meanwhile, the prediction performances of different radiomics models based on single phase (plain, arterial, and venous phase) and multiphase (three-phase combination) were compared to determine which model construction method and phase were more discriminative. In addition, clinical models based on clinical-radiological features and combined models integrating radiomics features and clinical-radiological features were established. The prediction performances of the different models were evaluated by the area under the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve (AUC) and the drawing of calibration curves.ResultsAmong the 24 established radiomics models composed of four different phases, three feature selection methods, and two machine learning classifiers, the LASSO-SVM model based on a three-phase combination had the optimal prediction performance with AUC (0.936 [95% CI = 0.866, 0.976]), sensitivity (0.78), specificity (0.90), and accuracy (0.86) in the test set, and its prediction performance was significantly better than with the clinical model based on LR (AUC = 0.781, p = 0.012). In the test set, the combined model based on LR had a lower AUC than the optimal radiomics model (AUC = 0.933 vs. 0.936), but no statistically significant difference (p = 0.888).ConclusionMultiphasic CT-based radiomics analysis showed a machine learning model based on clinical-radiological features and radiomics features has the potential to provide a valuable tool for discriminating benign from malignant parotid tumors.
