Radiomics-Based Machine Learning in Differentiation Between Glioblastoma and Metastatic Brain Tumors.

ABSTRACT: Purpose: To investigative the diagnostic performance of radiomics-based machine learning in differentiating glioblastomas (GBM) from metastatic brain tumors (MBTs). Method: The current study involved 134 patients diagnosed and treated in our institution between April 2014 and December 2018. Radiomics features were extracted from contrast-enhanced T1 weighted imaging (T1C). Thirty diagnostic models were built based on five selection methods and six classification algorithms. The sensitivity, specificity, accuracy, and area under curve (AUC) of each model were calculated, and based on these the optimal model was chosen. Result : Two models represented promising diagnostic performance with AUC of 0.80. The first model was a combination of Distance Correlation as the selection method and Linear Discriminant Analysis (LDA) as the classification algorithm. In the training group, the sensitivity, specificity, accuracy, and AUC were 0.75, 0.85, 0.80, and 0.80, respectively; and in the testing group, the sensitivity, specificity, accuracy, and AUC of the model were 0.69, 0.86, 0.78, and 0.80, respectively. The second model was the Distance Correlation as the selection method and logistic regression (LR) as the classification algorithm, with sensitivity, specificity, accuracy, and AUC of 0.75, 0.85, 0.80, 0.80 in the training group and 0.69, 0.86, 0.78, 0.80 in the testing group. Conclusion: Radiomic-based machine learning has potential to be utilized in differentiating GBM from MBTs.

Project description:BackgroundCerebral alveolar echinococcosis (CAE) and brain metastases (BM) share similar in locations and imaging appearance. However, they require distinct treatment approaches, with CAE typically treated with chemotherapy and surgery, while BM is managed with radiotherapy and targeted therapy for the primary malignancy. Accurate diagnosis is crucial due to the divergent treatment strategies.PurposeThis study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of radiomics and machine learning techniques based on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) to differentiate between CAE and BM.MethodsWe retrospectively analyzed MRI images of 130 patients (30 CAE and 100 BM) from Xinjiang Medical University First Affiliated Hospital and The First People's Hospital of Kashi Prefecture, between January 2014 and December 2022. The dataset was divided into training (91 cases) and testing (39 cases) sets. Three dimensional tumors were segmented by radiologists from contrast-enhanced T1WI images on open resources software 3D Slicer. Features were extracted on Pyradiomics, further feature reduction was carried out using univariate analysis, correlation analysis, and least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO). Finally, we built five machine learning models, support vector machine, logistic regression, linear discrimination analysis, k-nearest neighbors classifier, and Gaussian naïve bias and evaluated their performance via several metrics including sensitivity (recall), specificity, positive predictive value (precision), negative predictive value, accuracy and the area under the curve (AUC).ResultsThe area under curve (AUC) of support vector classifier (SVC), linear discrimination analysis (LDA), k-nearest neighbors (KNN), and gaussian naïve bias (NB) algorithms in training (testing) sets are 0.99 (0.94), 1.00 (0.87), 0.98 (0.92), 0.97 (0.97), and 0.98 (0.93), respectively. Nested cross-validation demonstrated the robustness and generalizability of the models. Additionally, the calibration plot and decision curve analysis demonstrated the practical usefulness of these models in clinical practice, with lower bias toward different subgroups during decision-making.ConclusionThe combination of radiomics and machine learning approach based on contrast enhanced T1WI images could well distinguish CAE and BM. This approach holds promise in assisting doctors with accurate diagnosis and clinical decision-making.

Project description:Objective To explore the best MRI radiomics-based machine learning model for differentiation of sinonasal inverted papilloma (SNIP) and malignant sinonasal tumor (MST), and investigate whether the combination of radiomics features and clinic–radiological features can produce a superior diagnostic performance. Methods The database of 247 patients with SNIP (n=106) or MST (n=141) were analyzed. Dataset from scanner A were randomly divided into training set (n=135) and test set 1 (n=58) in a ratio of 7:3, and dataset from scanner B and C were used as an additional independent test set 2 (n=54). Fourteen clinic-radiological features were analyzed by using univariate analysis, and those with significant differences were applied to construct clinical model. Based on the radiomics features extracted from single sequence (T2WI or CE-T1WI) and combined sequence, four commonly used classifiers (logistic regression (LR), support vector machine (SVM), decision tree (DT) and k-nearest neighbor (KNN)) were employed to constitute twelve different machine learning models, and the best-performing one was confirmed as the optimal radiomics model. Furthermore, a combined model incorporated best radiomics feature subsets and clinic-radiological features was developed. The diagnostic performances of these models were assessed by the area under the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve (AUC) and the calibration curves. Results Five clinic-radiological features (age, convoluted cerebriform pattern sign, heterogeneity, adjacent bone involvement and infiltration of surrounding tissue) were considered to be significantly different between the tumor groups (P < 0.05). Among the twelve machine learning models, the T2WI-SVM model exhibited optimal predictive efficacy for classification tasks on the two test sets, with the AUC of 0.878 and 0.914, respectively. For three types of diagnostic models, the combined model achieved highest AUC of 0.912 (95%CI: 0.807-0.970) and 0.927 (95%CI: 0.823-0.980) for differentiation of SNIP and MST in test 1 and test 2 sets, which performed prominently better than clinical model (P=0.011, 0.005), but not significantly different from the optimal radiomics model (P=0.100, 0.452). Conclusion The machine learning model based on T2WI sequence and SVM classifier achieved best performance in differentiation of SNIP and MST, and the combination of radiomics features and clinic-radiological features significantly improved the diagnostic capability of the model.
