Development of a Novel, Multi-Parametric, MRI-Based Radiomic Nomogram for Differentiating Between Clinically Significant and Insignificant Prostate Cancer.

ABSTRACT: Objectives: To develop and validate a predictive model for discriminating clinically significant prostate cancer (csPCa) from clinically insignificant prostate cancer (ciPCa). Methods: This retrospective study was performed with 159 consecutively enrolled pathologically confirmed PCa patients from two medical centers. The dataset was allocated to a training group (n = 54) and an internal validation group (n = 22) from one center along with an external independent validation group (n = 83) from another center. A total of 1,188 radiomic features were extracted from T2WI, diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI), and apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) images derived from DWI for each patient. Multivariable logistic regression analysis was performed to develop the model, incorporating the radiomic signature, ADC value, and independent clinical risk factors. This was presented using a radiomic nomogram. The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was utilized to assess the predictive efficacy of the radiomic nomogram in both the training and validation groups. The decision curve analysis was used to evaluate which model achieved the most net benefit. Results: The radiomic signature, which was made up of 10 selected features, was significantly associated with csPCa (P < 0.001 for both training and internal validation groups). The area under the curve (AUC) values of discriminating csPCa for the radiomics signature were 0.95 (training group), 0.86 (internal validation group), and 0.81 (external validation group). Multivariate logistic analysis identified the radiomic signature and ADC value as independent parameters of predicting csPCa. Then, the combination nomogram incorporating the radiomic signature and ADC value demonstrated a favorable classification capability with the AUC of 0.95 (training group), 0.93 (internal validation group), and 0.84 (external validation group). Appreciable clinical utility of this model was illustrated using the decision curve analysis for the nomogram. Conclusions: The nomogram, incorporating radiomic signature and ADC value, provided an individualized, potential approach for discriminating csPCa from ciPCa.

Project description:ObjectivesTo develop an automatic method for identification and segmentation of clinically significant prostate cancer in low-risk patients and to evaluate the performance in a routine clinical setting.MethodsA consecutive cohort (n = 292) from a prospective database of low-risk patients eligible for the active surveillance was selected. A 3-T multi-parametric MRI at 3 months after inclusion was performed. Histopathology from biopsies was used as reference standard. MRI positivity was defined as PI-RADS score ≥ 3, histopathology positivity was defined as ISUP grade ≥ 2. The selected cohort contained four patient groups: (1) MRI-positive targeted biopsy-positive (n = 116), (2) MRI-negative systematic biopsy-negative (n = 55), (3) MRI-positive targeted biopsy-negative (n = 113), (4) MRI-negative systematic biopsy-positive (n = 8). Group 1 was further divided into three sets and a 3D convolutional neural network was trained using different combinations of these sets. Two MRI sequences (T2w, b = 800 DWI) and the ADC map were used as separate input channels for the model. After training, the model was evaluated on the remaining group 1 patients together with the patients of groups 2 and 3 to identify and segment clinically significant prostate cancer.ResultsThe average sensitivity achieved was 82-92% at an average specificity of 43-76% with an area under the curve (AUC) of 0.65 to 0.89 for different lesion volumes ranging from > 0.03 to > 0.5 cc.ConclusionsThe proposed deep learning computer-aided method yields promising results in identification and segmentation of clinically significant prostate cancer and in confirming low-risk cancer (ISUP grade ≤ 1) in patients on active surveillance.Key points• Clinically significant prostate cancer identification and segmentation on multi-parametric MRI is feasible in low-risk patients using a deep neural network. • The deep neural network for significant prostate cancer localization performs better for lesions with larger volumes sizes (> 0.5 cc) as compared to small lesions (> 0.03 cc). • For the evaluation of automatic prostate cancer segmentation methods in the active surveillance cohort, the large discordance group (MRI positive, targeted biopsy negative) should be included.
