Article Abstract

Rationale And Objectives: To develop and validate a radiomics signature, utilizing baseline and restaging CT, for preoperatively predicting progression-free survival (PFS) after neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) in locally advanced gastric cancer (LAGC).

Methods: A total of 316 patients with LAGC who received NAC followed by gastrectomy were retrospectively included in this single-center study; these patients were split into two cohorts, one for training (n = 243) and the other for validation (n = 73), based on the different districts of our hospital. A total of 1316 radiomics features were extracted from the volume of interest of the gastric-cancer lesion on venous phase CT images. Four radiomics signatures were built for predicting PFS based on baseline CT (Pre-Rad), restaging CT (Post-Rad), delta radiomics (Delta-Rad) and multi-time radiomics (PrePost-Rad), respectively. Then the PrePost-Rad was combined with clinical factors to establish a nomogram (Rad-clinical model). Kaplan-Meier survival curves with log-rank tests were used to assess the prognostic usefulness of the Rad-clinical model.

Results: All baseline characteristics were not statistically different between the two cohorts. The PrePost-Rad achieved improved predictive value by a C-index of 0.724 (95% CI: 0.639-0.809) in the validation cohort [Pre-Rad: 0.715 (0.632-0.798); Post-Rad: 0.632 (0.538-0.725), Delta-Rad: 0.549 (0.447-0.651)]. In terms of clinical benefit, calibration capability, and prediction efficacy, the Rad-clinical model performed well for PFS prediction, with a C-index of 0.754 (95% CI: 0.707-0.800) and 0.719 (95% CI: 0.639-0.800) in the training and validation cohorts, respectively, superior to the clinical model (cN stage and CA199) but comparable to the PrePost-Rad. Moreover, the Rad-clinical model could accurately classify gastric-cancer patients after NAC into three PFS risk groups in both training and validation cohorts. The risk stratification also performed well in most subgroups (good responders, poor responders, ypTNM Ⅱ, and ypTNM Ⅲ/Ⅳ).

Conclusions: The Rad-clinical model integrating longitudinal radiomics score and clinical factors performed well in preoperatively predicting PFS of LAGC patients after NAC and surgery.

Article Synopsis
  • The study aims to create a predictive model using clinical, radiomic, and deep learning features from X-ray and MRI to identify early risk factors for femoral head deformity in Legg-Calvé-Perthes disease (LCPD).
  • Involving 152 patients diagnosed with early unilateral LCPD, various machine learning methods (like XGBoost, which performed best) were used to develop predictive models, with the combined model showing the highest area under the ROC curve (AUC) at 0.853.
  • The results indicate that the integrated Clinic + Rad + DL model could help clinicians better assess the risk of early deformity in LCPD, leading to more personalized treatment strategies.

Objective: Exploring the efficacy of a Radiological-Clinical (Rad-Clinical) model in predicting prognosis of unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) patients after drug eluting beads transcatheter arterial chemoembolization (DEB-TACE) to optimize the targeted sequential treatment.

Methods: In this retrospective analysis, we included 202 patients with unresectable HCC who received DEB-TACE treatment in 17 institutions from June 2018 to December 2022. Progression-free survival (PFS)-related radiomics features were computationally extracted from HCC patients to build a radiological signature (Rad-signature) model with least absolute shrinkage and selection operator regression.

Background: Accurate diagnosis of N2 lymph node status of the resectable stage I-II non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) before surgery is crucial, while there is lack of corresponding method clinically.

Purpose: To develop and validate a model to quantitively predict the N2 lymph node metastasis in presurgical clinical stage I-II NSCLC using multiview radiomics and deep learning method.

Methods: In this study, 140 NSCLC patients were enrolled and randomly divided into training and test sets.

Background: To investigate the prognostic value of dual-energy CT (DECT) based radiomics to predict disease-free survival (DFS) and overall survival (OS) for patients with advanced gastric cancer (AGC) after neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC).

Methods: From January 2014 to December 2018, a total of 156 AGC patients were enrolled and randomly allocated into a training cohort and a testing cohort at a ratio of 2:1. Volume of interest of primary tumor was delineated on eight image series.
