Differentiation of Intrahepatic Cholangiocarcinoma and Hepatic Lymphoma Based on Radiomics and Machine Learning in Contrast-Enhanced Computer Tomography.

ABSTRACT: Purpose: This study aimed to explore the ability of texture parameters combining with machine learning methods in distinguishing intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (ICCA) and hepatic lymphoma (HL). Method: A total of 28 patients with HL and 101 patients with ICCA were included. A total of 45 texture features were extracted by the software LifeX from contrast-enhanced computer tomography (CECT) images and 38 of them were eligible. A total of 5 feature selection methods and 9 feature classification methods were used to build the best diagnostic models, combining with the 10-fold cross-validation to assess the accuracy of these models. The discriminative ability of each model was evaluated by receiver operating characteristic analysis. Result: A total of 45 predictive models were built by the cross combination of each selection and classification method to differentiate ICCA from HL. According to the results of test group, most of the models performed well with a large area under the curve (AUC) (>0.85) and high accuracy (>0.85). Random Forest (RF)_Linear Discriminant Analysis (LDA) (AUC = 0.997, accuracy = 0.969) was the best model among all the 45 models. Conclusion: Combining texture parameters from CECT with multiple machine learning models can differentiate ICCA and HL effectively, and RF_LDA performed the best in this process.

Project description:Purpose: Accurate lymph node (LN) status evaluation for intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (ICC) patients is essential for surgical planning. This study aimed to develop and validate a prediction model for preoperative LN status evaluation in ICC patients. Methods and Materials: A group of 106 ICC patients, who were diagnosed between April 2011 and February 2016, was used for prediction model training. Image features were extracted from T1-weighted contrast-enhanced MR images. A support vector machine (SVM) model was built by using the most LN status-related features, which were selected using the maximum relevance minimum redundancy (mRMR) algorithm. The mRMR method ranked each feature according to its relevance to the LN status and redundancy with other features. An SVM score was calculated for each patient to reflect the LN metastasis (LNM) probability from the SVM model. Finally, a combination nomogram was constructed by incorporating the SVM score and clinical features. An independent group of 42 patients who were diagnosed from March 2016 to November 2017 was used to validate the prediction models. The model performances were evaluated on discrimination, calibration, and clinical utility. Results: The SVM model was constructed based on five selected image features. Significant differences were found between patients with LNM and non-LNM in SVM scores in both groups (the training group: 0.5466 (interquartile range (IQR), 0.4059-0.6985) vs. 0.3226 (IQR, 0.0527-0.4659), P<0.0001; the validation group: 0.5831 (IQR, 0.3641-0.8162) vs. 0.3101 (IQR, 0.1029-0.4661), P=0.0015). The combination nomogram based on the SVM score, the CA 19-9 level, and the MR-reported LNM factor showed better discrimination in separating patients with LNM and non-LNM, comparing to the SVM model alone (AUC: the training group: 0.842 vs. 0.788; the validation group: 0.870 vs. 0.787). Favorable clinical utility was observed using the decision curve analysis for the nomogram. Conclusion: The nomogram, incorporating the SVM score, CA 19-9 level and the MR-reported LNM factor, provided an individualized LN status evaluation and helped clinicians guide the surgical decisions.
