Article Abstract
Background: Nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) is a common tumor in China. Accurate stages of NPC are crucial for treatment. We therefore aim to develop radiomics models for discriminating early-stage (I-II) and advanced-stage (III-IVa) NPC based on MR images.
Methods: 329 NPC patients were enrolled and randomly divided into a training cohort (n = 229) and a validation cohort (n = 100). Features were extracted based on axial contrast-enhanced T1-weighted images (CE-T1WI), T1WI, and T2-weighted images (T2WI). Least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) was used to build radiomics signatures. Seven radiomics models were constructed with logistic regression. The AUC value was used to assess classification performance. The DeLong test was used to compare the AUCs of different radiomics models and visual assessment.
Results: Models A, B, C, D, E, F, and G were constructed with 13, 9, 7, 9, 10, 7, and 6 features, respectively. All radiomics models showed better classification performance than that of visual assessment. Model A (CE-T1WI + T1WI + T2WI) showed the best classification performance (AUC: 0.847) in the training cohort. CE-T1WI showed the greatest significance for staging NPC.
Conclusion: Radiomics models can effectively distinguish early-stage from advanced-stage NPC patients, and Model A (CE-T1WI + T1WI + T2WI) showed the best classification performance.

Rationale And Objectives: The diagnostic value of traditional imaging methods and radiomics in predicting macrotrabecular-massive hepatocellular carcinoma (MTM HCC) is yet to be ascertained. Therefore, this meta-analysis aims to compare the diagnostic performance of radiomics and conventional imaging techniques for MTM HCC.
Materials And Methods: Comprehensive publications were searched in PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, and Cochrane Library up to 28 February 2025.

Rationale And Objectives: Double expression lymphoma (DEL) is an independent high-risk prognostic factor for primary CNS lymphoma (PCNSL), and its diagnosis currently relies on invasive methods. This study first integrates radiomics and habitat radiomics features to enhance preoperative DEL status prediction models via intratumoral heterogeneity analysis.
Materials And Methods: Clinical, pathological, and MRI imaging data of 139 PCNSL patients from two independent centers were collected.

Background: We aimed to develop and validate a radiomics-based machine learning nomogram using multiparametric magnetic resonance imaging to preoperatively predict substantial lymphovascular space invasion in patients with endometrial cancer.
Methods: This retrospective dual-center study included patients with histologically confirmed endometrial cancer who underwent preoperative magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). The patients were divided into training and test sets.

Objectives: In non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), non-invasive alternatives to biopsy-dependent driver mutation analysis are needed. We reviewed the effectiveness of radiomics alone or with clinical data and assessed the performance of artificial intelligence (AI) models in predicting oncogene mutation status.
Materials And Methods: A PRISMA-compliant literature review for studies predicting oncogene mutation status in NSCLC patients using radiomics was conducted by a multidisciplinary team.

Purpose: To predict metastasis-free survival (MFS) for patients with prostate adenocarcinoma (PCa) treated with androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) and external radiotherapy using clinical factors and radiomics extracted from primary tumor and node volumes in pre-treatment PSMA PET/CT scans.
Materials/methods: Our cohort includes 134 PCa patients (nodal involvement in 28 patients). Gross tumor volumes of primary tumor (GTVp) and nodes (GTVn) on CT and PET scans were segmented.
