Radiomics nomogram: A noninvasive tool for preoperative evaluation of the invasiveness of pulmonary adenocarcinomas manifesting as ground-glass nodules.

ABSTRACT: In this study, we aimed to establish a radiomics nomogram that noninvasively evaluates the invasiveness of pulmonary adenocarcinomas manifesting as ground-glass nodules (GGNs). Computed tomography (CT) images of 509 patients manifesting as GGNs were collected: 70% of cases were included in the training cohort and 30% in the validation cohort. The Max-Relevance and Min-Redundancy (mRMR) and the least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) algorithm were used to select the radiomics features and construct a radiomics signature. Univariate and multivariate logistic regression were used to select the invasiveness-related clinical and CT morphological predictors. Age, smoking history, long diameter, and average CT value were retained as independent predictors of GGN invasiveness. A radiomics nomogram was established by integrating clinical and CT morphological features with the radiomics signature. The radiomics nomogram showed good predictive ability in the training set (area under the curve [AUC], 0.940; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.916-0.964) and validation set (AUC, 0.946; 95% CI, 0.907-0.986). This radiomics nomogram may serve as a noninvasive and accurate predictive tool to determine the invasiveness of GGNs prior to surgery and assist clinicians in creating personalized treatment strategies.

Project description:ObjectivesTo investigate the value of radiomics based on CT imaging in predicting invasive adenocarcinoma manifesting as pure ground-glass nodules (pGGNs).MethodsThis study enrolled 395 pGGNs with histopathology-confirmed benign nodules or adenocarcinoma. A total of 396 radiomic features were extracted from each labeled nodule. A Rad-score was constructed with the least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) in the training set. Multivariate logistic regression analysis was conducted to establish the radiographic model and the combined radiographic-radiomics model. The predictive performance was validated by receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve. Based on the multivariate logistic regression analysis, an individual prediction nomogram was developed and the clinical utility was assessed.ResultsFive radiomic features and four radiographic features were selected for predicting the invasive lesions. The combined radiographic-radiomics model (AUC 0.77; 95% CI, 0.69-0.86) performed better than the radiographic model (AUC 0.71; 95% CI, 0.62-0.81) and Rad-score (AUC 0.72; 95% CI, 0.63-0.81) in the validation set. The clinical utility of the individualized prediction nomogram developed using the Rad-score, margin, spiculation, and size was confirmed in the validation set. The decision curve analysis (DCA) indicated that using a model with Rad-score to predict the invasive lesion would be more beneficial than that without Rad-score and the clinical model.ConclusionsThe proposed radiomics-based nomogram that incorporated the Rad-score, margin, spiculation, and size may be utilized as a noninvasive biomarker for the assessment of invasive prediction in patients with pGGNs.Key points• CT-based radiomics analysis helps invasive prediction manifested as pGGNs. • The combined radiographic-radiomics model may be utilized as a noninvasive biomarker for predicting invasive lesion for pGGNs. • Radiomics-based individual nomogram may serve as a vital decision support tool to identify invasive pGGNs, obviating further workup and blind follow-up.

Project description:ObjectiveTo investigate whether radiomics can help radiologists and thoracic surgeons accurately predict invasive adenocarcinoma (IAC) manifesting as part-solid nodules (PSNs) with solid components <6 mm and provide a basis for rational clinical decision-making.Materials and methodsIn total, 1,210 patients (mean age ± standard deviation: 54.28 ± 11.38 years, 374 men and 836 women) from our hospital and another hospital with 1,248 PSNs pathologically diagnosed with adenocarcinoma in situ (AIS), minimally invasive adenocarcinoma (MIA), or IAC were enrolled in this study. Among them, 1,050 cases from our hospital were randomly divided into a derivation set (n = 735) and an internal validation set (n = 315), 198 cases from another hospital were used for external validation. Each labeled nodule was segmented, and 105 radiomics features were extracted. Least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) was used to calculate Rad-score and build the radiomics model. Multivariable logistic regression was conducted to identify the clinicoradiological predictors and establish the clinical-radiographic model. The combined model and predictive nomogram were developed based on identified clinicoradiological independent predictors and Rad-score using multivariable logistic regression analysis. The predictive performances of the three models were compared via receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis. Decision curve analysis (DCA) was performed on both the internal and external validation sets to evaluate the clinical utility of the nomogram.ResultsThe radiomics model showed superior predictive performance than the clinical-radiographic model in both internal and external validation sets (Az values, 0.884 vs. 0.810, p = 0.001; 0.924 vs. 0.855, p < 0.001, respectively). The combined model showed comparable predictive performance to the radiomics model (Az values, 0.887 vs. 0.884, p = 0.398; 0.917 vs. 0.924, p = 0.271, respectively). The clinical application value of the nomogram developed based on the Rad-score, maximum diameter, and lesion shape was confirmed, and DCA demonstrated that application of the Rad-score would be beneficial for radiologists predicting invasive lesions.ConclusionsRadiomics has the potential as an independent diagnostic tool to predict the invasiveness of PSNs with solid components <6 mm.

Project description:ObjectiveTo develop a radiomic model based on low-dose CT (LDCT) to distinguish invasive adenocarcinomas (IAs) from adenocarcinoma in situ/minimally invasive adenocarcinomas (AIS/MIAs) manifesting as pure ground-glass nodules (pGGNs) and compare its performance with conventional quantitative and semantic features of LDCT, radiomic model of standard-dose CT, and intraoperative frozen section (FS).MethodsA total of 147 consecutive pathologically confirmed pGGNs were divided into primary cohort (43 IAs and 60 AIS/MIAs) and validation cohort (19 IAs and 25 AIS/MIAs). Logistic regression models were built using conventional quantitative and semantic features, selected radiomic features of LDCT and standard-dose CT, and intraoperative FS diagnosis, respectively. The diagnostic performance was assessed by area under curve (AUC) of receiver operating characteristic curve, sensitivity, and specificity.ResultsThe AUCs of quantitative-semantic model, radiomic model of LDCT, radiomic model of standard-dose CT, and FS model were 0.879 (95% CI, 0.801-0.935), 0.929 (95% CI, 0.862-0.971), 0.941 (95% CI, 0.876-0.978), and 0.884 (95% CI, 0.805-0.938) in the primary cohort and 0.897 (95% CI, 0.768-0.968), 0.933 (95% CI, 0.815-0.986), 0.901 (95% CI, 0.773-0.970), and 0.828 (95% CI, 0.685-0.925) in the validation cohort. No significant difference of the AUCs was found among these models in both the primary and validation cohorts (all p > 0.05).ConclusionThe LDCT-based quantitative-semantic score and radiomic signature, with good predictive performance, can be pre-operative and non-invasive biomarkers for assessing the invasive risk of pGGNs in lung cancer screening.Advances in knowledgeThe LDCT-based quantitative-semantic score and radiomic signature, with the equivalent performance to the radiomic model of standard-dose CT, can be pre-operative predictors for assessing the invasiveness of pGGNs in lung cancer screening and reducing excess examination and treatment.
