Objective: To enhance the prognostic assessment and management of lung cancer with cystic airspaces (LCCA) by integrating temporal clinical and phenotypic dimensions of tumor growth.
Patients And Methods: A retrospective analysis was conducted on LCCA patients treated at two hospitals. Clinical and imaging characteristics were analyzed using the independent samples t-test, Mann-Whitney U test, and χ test. Features with significant differences were further analyzed using multivariate Cox regression to identify independent prognostic factors. Radiomic features were extracted from CT images, and volume doubling time (VDT) was calculated from two follow-up scans. Separate predictive models were constructed based on radiomic features and VDT. A fusion model integrating radiomic features, VDT, and independent clinical prognostic factors was developed. Model performance was evaluated using receiver operating characteristic curve and the area under the curve, with DeLong's test used for comparison.
Results: A total of 193 patients were included, with an average survival time of 48.5 months. Significant differences were found between survivors and non-survivors in age, smoking status, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, and tumor volume ( < 0.05). Multivariate Cox analysis identified smoking and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease as independent risk factors ( = 0.028 and = 0.013). The VDT for survivors was 421 (298 582.5) days compared to 334.5 ± 106.1 days for non-survivors ( = -3.330, = 0.001). In the validation set, the area under the curve for the VDT model was 0.805, for the radiomic model 0.717, and for the fusion model 0.895, demonstrating the highest predictive performance ( < 0.05).
Conclusion: Integrating VDT, radiomics, and clinical imaging features into a fusion model improves the accuracy of predicting the five-year survival rate for LCCA patients, enhancing personalized and precise cancer treatment.

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.

Background: Accurate delineation of regions of interest (ROIs) is critical for feature extraction and selection in radiomics-based prediction models.
Purpose: To develop a combined dosiomics and deep learning (DL) model for predicting grade ≥ 2 radiation esophagitis (RE) in lung cancer patients undergoing radiotherapy, we propose a multi-task auxiliary learning approach to define accurate and objective ROIs based on radiation dose distribution (RDD) images.
Materials And Methods: Lung cancer patients who underwent radiotherapy were gathered retrospectively from hospital 1 (January 2020 and December 2022) for model development.
