Contrast-Enhanced CT Texture Analysis for Distinguishing Fat-Poor Renal Angiomyolipoma From Chromophobe Renal Cell Carcinoma.

ABSTRACT: OBJECTIVE:To evaluate the value of 2-dimensional (2D) and 3-dimensional (3D) computed tomography texture analysis (CTTA) models in distinguishing fat-poor angiomyolipoma (fpAML) from chromophobe renal cell carcinoma (chRCC). METHODS:We retrospectively enrolled 32 fpAMLs and 24 chRCCs. Texture features were extracted from 2D and 3D regions of interest in triphasic CT images. The 2D and 3D CTTA models were constructed with the least absolute shrinkage and selection operator algorithm and texture scores were calculated. The diagnostic performance of the 2D and 3D CTTA models was evaluated with respect to calibration, discrimination, and clinical usefulness. RESULTS:Of the 177 and 183 texture features extracted from 2D and 3D regions of interest, respectively, 5 2D features and 8 3D features were selected to build 2D and 3D CTTA models. The 2D CTTA model (area under the curve [AUC], 0.811; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.695-0.927) and the 3D CTTA model (AUC, 0.915; 95% CI, 0.838-0.993) showed good discrimination and calibration (P > .05). There was no significant difference in AUC between the 2 models (P = .093). Decision curve analysis showed the 3D model outperformed the 2D model in terms of clinical usefulness. CONCLUSIONS:The CTTA models based on contrast-enhanced CT images had a high value in differentiating fpAML from chRCC.

Project description:PurposeDifferentiation of fat-poor angiomyolipoma (fp-AMLs) from renal cell carcinoma (RCC) is often not possible from just visual interpretation of conventional cross-sectional imaging, typically requiring biopsy or surgery for diagnostic confirmation. However, radiomics has the potential to characterize renal masses without the need for invasive procedures. Here, we conducted a systematic review on the accuracy of CT radiomics in distinguishing fp-AMLs from RCCs.MethodsWe conducted a search using PubMed/MEDLINE, Google Scholar, Cochrane Library, Embase, and Web of Science for studies published from January 2011-2022 that utilized CT radiomics to discriminate between fp-AMLs and RCCs. A random-effects model was applied for the meta-analysis according to the heterogeneity level. Furthermore, subgroup analyses (group 1: RCCs vs. fp-AML, and group 2: ccRCC vs. fp-AML), and quality assessment were also conducted to explore the possible effect of interstudy differences. To evaluate CT radiomics performance, the pooled sensitivity, specificity, and diagnostic odds ratio (DOR) were assessed. This study is registered with PROSPERO (CRD42022311034).ResultsOur literature search identified 10 studies with 1456 lesions in 1437 patients. Pooled sensitivity was 0.779 [95% CI: 0.562-0.907] and 0.817 [95% CI: 0.663-0.910] for groups 1 and 2, respectively. Pooled specificity was 0.933 [95% CI: 0.814-0.978]and 0.926 [95% CI: 0.854-0.964] for groups 1 and 2, respectively. Also, our findings showed higher sensitivity and specificity of 0.858 [95% CI: 0.742-0.927] and 0.886 [95% CI: 0.819-0.930] for detecting ccRCC from fp-AML in the unenhanced phase of CT scan as compared to the corticomedullary and nephrogenic phases of CT scan.ConclusionThis study suggested that radiomic features derived from CT has high sensitivity and specificity in differentiating RCCs vs. fp-AML, particularly in detecting ccRCCs vs. fp-AML. Also, an unenhanced CT scan showed the highest specificity and sensitivity as compared to contrast CT scan phases. Differentiating between fp-AML and RCC often is not possible without biopsy or surgery; radiomics has the potential to obviate these invasive procedures due to its high diagnostic accuracy.

Project description:ObjectiveThis study aims to develop and externally validate a contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (CE-MRI) radiomics-based model for preoperative differentiation between fat-poor angiomyolipoma (fp-AML) and hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) in patients with noncirrhotic livers and to compare the diagnostic performance with that of two radiologists.MethodsThis retrospective study was performed with 165 patients with noncirrhotic livers from three medical centers. The dataset was divided into a training cohort (n = 99), a time-independent internal validation cohort (n = 24) from one center, and an external validation cohort (n = 42) from the remaining two centers. The volumes of interest were contoured on the arterial phase (AP) images and then registered to the venous phase (VP) and delayed phase (DP), and a total of 3,396 radiomics features were extracted from the three phases. After the joint mutual information maximization feature selection procedure, four radiomics logistic regression classifiers, including the AP model, VP model, DP model, and combined model, were built. The area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC), diagnostic accuracy, sensitivity, and specificity of each radiomics model and those of two radiologists were evaluated and compared.ResultsThe AUCs of the combined model reached 0.789 (95%CI, 0.579-0.999) in the internal validation cohort and 0.730 (95%CI, 0.563-0.896) in the external validation cohort, higher than the AP model (AUCs, 0.711 and 0.638) and significantly higher than the VP model (AUCs, 0.594 and 0.610) and the DP model (AUCs, 0.547 and 0.538). The diagnostic accuracy, sensitivity, and specificity of the combined model were 0.708, 0.625, and 0.750 in the internal validation cohort and 0.619, 0.786, and 0.536 in the external validation cohort, respectively. The AUCs for the two radiologists were 0.656 and 0.594 in the internal validation cohort and 0.643 and 0.500 in the external validation cohort. The AUCs of the combined model surpassed those of the two radiologists and were significantly higher than that of the junior one in both validation cohorts.ConclusionsThe proposed radiomics model based on triple-phase CE-MRI images was proven to be useful for differentiating between fp-AML and HCC and yielded comparable or better performance than two radiologists in different centers, with different scanners and different scanning parameters.
