    Abstract: This study aimed to noninvasively predict the mutation status of epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) molecular subtype in lung adenocarcinoma based on CT radiomics features. Methods In total, 728 patients with lung adenocarcinoma were included, and divided into three groups according to EGFR mutation subtypes. 1727 radiomics features were extracted from the three-dimensional images of each patient. Wilcoxon test, least absolute shrinkage and selection operator regression, and multiple logistic regression were used for feature selection. ROC curve was used to evaluate the predictive performance of the model. Nomogram was constructed by combining radiomics features and clinical risk factors. Calibration curve was used to evaluate the goodness of fit of the model. Decision curve analysis was used to evaluate the clinical applicability of the model. Results There were three, two, and one clinical factor and fourteen, thirteen, and four radiomics features, respectively, which were significantly related to each EGFR molecular subtype. Compared with the clinical and radiomics models, the combined model had the highest predictive performance in predicting EGFR molecular subtypes [Del-19 mutation  vs. wild-type, AUC=0.838 (95% CI, 0.799-0.877); L858R mutation vs. wild-type, AUC=0.855 (95% CI, 0.817-0.894); and Del-19 mutation vs. L858R mutation, AUC=0.906 (95% CI, 0.869-0.943), respectively], and it has a stable performance in the validation set [AUC was 0.813 (95% CI, 0.740-0.886), 0.852 (95% CI, 0.790-0.913), and 0.875 (95% CI, 0.781-0.929), respectively] . Conclusion Our combined model showed good performance in predicting EGFR molecular subtypes in patients with lung adenocarcinoma. This model can be applied to patients with lung adenocarcinoma.

    Abstract: To explore the value of dual-energy spectral CT in distinguishing solitary pulmonary tuberculosis (SP-TB) from solitary lung adenocarcinoma (S-LUAD). Methods A total of 246 patients confirmed SP-TB (n = 86) or S-LUAD (n = 160) were retrospectively included. Spectral CT parameters include CT 40keV value, CT 70keV value, iodine concentration (IC), water concentration (WC), effective atomic number (Zeff), and spectral curve slope (λ 70keV ). Data were measured during the arterial phase (AP) and venous phase (VP). Chi-square test was used to compare categorical variables, Wilcoxon rank-sum test was used to compare continuous variables, and a two-sample t -test was used to compare spectral CT parameters. ROC curves were used to calculate diagnostic efficiency. Results There were significant differences in spectral CT quantitative parameters (including CT 40keV value [all P & lt; 0.001] , CT 70keV value [all P & lt; 0.001], λ 70keV [ P & lt; 0.001, and P = 0.027], Zeff [ P = 0.015, and P = 0.001], and IC [ P = 0.002, and P = 0.028]) between the two groups during the AP and VP. However, WC ( P = 0.930, and P = 0.823) was not statistically different between the two groups. The ROC curve analysis showed that the AUC in the AP and VP was 90.9% (95% CI, 0.873-0.945) and 83.4% (95% CI, 0.780-0.887), respectively. The highest diagnostic performance (AUC, 97.6%; 95% CI, 0.961-0.991) was achieved when all spectral CT parameters were combined with clinical variables. Conclusion Dual-energy spectral CT has a significant value in distinguishing SP-TB from S-LUAD.

    Abstract: Purpose. This study aimed to investigate the value of biparametric magnetic resonance imaging (bp-MRI)-based radiomics signatures for the preoperative prediction of prostate cancer (PCa) grade compared with visual assessments by radiologists based on the Prostate Imaging Reporting and Data System Version 2.1 (PI-RADS V2.1) scores of multiparametric MRI (mp-MRI). Methods. This retrospective study included 142 consecutive patients with histologically confirmed PCa who were undergoing mp-MRI before surgery. MRI images were scored and evaluated by two independent radiologists using PI-RADS V2.1. The radiomics workflow was divided into five steps: (a) image selection and segmentation, (b) feature extraction, (c) feature selection, (d) model establishment, and (e) model evaluation. Three machine learning algorithms (random forest tree (RF), logistic regression, and support vector machine (SVM)) were constructed to differentiate high-grade from low-grade PCa. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analysis was used to compare the machine learning-based analysis of bp-MRI radiomics models with PI-RADS V2.1. Results. In all, 8 stable radiomics features out of 804 extracted features based on T2-weighted imaging (T2WI) and ADC sequences were selected. Radiomics signatures successfully categorized high-grade and low-grade PCa cases ( P 〈 0.05 ) in both the training and test datasets. The radiomics model-based RF method (area under the curve, AUC: 0.982; 0.918), logistic regression (AUC: 0.886; 0.886), and SVM (AUC: 0.943; 0.913) in both the training and test cohorts had better diagnostic performance than PI-RADS V2.1 (AUC: 0.767; 0.813) when predicting PCa grade. Conclusions. The results of this clinical study indicate that machine learning-based analysis of bp-MRI radiomic models may be helpful for distinguishing high-grade and low-grade PCa that outperformed the PI-RADS V2.1 scores based on mp-MRI. The machine learning algorithm RF model was slightly better.

    Abstract: In this study, we used computed tomography (CT)-based radiomics signatures to predict the mutation status of KRAS in patients with colorectal cancer (CRC) and to identify the phase of radiomics signature with the most robust and high performance from triphasic enhanced CT. Methods This study involved 447 patients who underwent KRAS mutation testing and preoperative triphasic enhanced CT. They were categorized into training ( n  = 313) and validation cohorts ( n  = 134) in a 7:3 ratio. Radiomics features were extracted using triphasic enhanced CT imaging. The Boruta algorithm was used to retain the features closely associated with KRAS mutations. The Random Forest (RF) algorithm was used to develop radiomics, clinical, and combined clinical–radiomics models for KRAS mutations. The receiver operating characteristic curve, calibration curve, and decision curve were used to evaluate the predictive performance and clinical usefulness of each model. Results Age, CEA level, and clinical T stage were independent predictors of KRAS mutation status. After rigorous feature screening, four arterial phase (AP), three venous phase (VP), and seven delayed phase (DP) radiomics features were retained as the final signatures for predicting KRAS mutations. The DP models showed superior predictive performance compared to AP or VP models. The clinical–radiomics fusion model showed excellent performance, with an AUC, sensitivity, and specificity of 0.772, 0.792, and 0.646 in the training cohort, and 0.755, 0.724, and 0.684 in the validation cohort, respectively. The decision curve showed that the clinical–radiomics fusion model had more clinical practicality than the single clinical or radiomics model in predicting KRAS mutation status. Conclusion The clinical–radiomics fusion model, which combines the clinical and DP radiomics model, has the best predictive performance for predicting the mutation status of KRAS in CRC, and the constructed model has been effectively verified by an internal validation cohort.

    Abstract: The prognosis prediction of locally advanced rectal cancer (LARC) was important to individualized treatment, we aimed to investigate the performance of ultra-high b-value DWI (UHBV-DWI) in progression risk prediction of LARC and compare with routine DWI. Methods This retrospective study collected patients with rectal cancer from 2016 to 2019. Routine DWI (b = 0, 1000 s/mm 2 ) and UHBV-DWI (b = 0, 1700 ~ 3500 s/mm 2 ) were processed with mono-exponential model to generate ADC and ADCuh, respectively. The performance of the ADCuh was compared with ADC in 3-year progression free survival (PFS) assessment using time-dependent ROC and Kaplan-Meier curve. Prognosis model was constructed with ADCuh, ADC and clinicopathologic factors using multivariate COX proportional hazard regression analysis. The prognosis model was assessed with time-dependent ROC, decision curve analysis (DCA) and calibration curve. Results A total of 112 patients with LARC (TNM-stage II-III) were evaluated. ADCuh performed better than ADC for 3-year PFS assessment (AUC = 0.754 and 0.586, respectively). Multivariate COX analysis showed that ADCuh and ADC were independent factors for 3-year PFS ( P   〈  0.05). Prognostic model 3 (TNM-stage + extramural venous invasion (EMVI) + ADCuh) was superior than model 2 (TNM-stage + EMVI + ADC) and model 1 (TNM-stage + EMVI) for 3-year PFS prediction (AUC = 0.805, 0.719 and 0.688, respectively). DCA showed that model 3 had higher net benefit than model 2 and model 1. Calibration curve demonstrated better agreement of model 1 than model 2 and model 1. Conclusions ADCuh from UHBV-DWI performed better than ADC from routine DWI in predicting prognosis of LARC. The model based on combination of ADCuh, TNM-stage and EMVI could help to indicate progression risk before treatment.

    Abstract: Background. Pulmonary tuberculoma can mimic lung malignancy and thereby pose a diagnostic dilemma to clinicians. The purpose of this study was to establish an accurate, convenient, and clinically practical model for distinguishing small-sized, noncalcified, solitary pulmonary tuberculoma from solid lung adenocarcinoma. Methods. Thirty-one patients with noncalcified, solitary tuberculoma and 30 patients with solid adenocarcinoma were enrolled. Clinical characteristics and CT morphological features of lesions were compared between the two groups. Multivariate logistic regression analyses were applied to identify independent predictors of pulmonary tuberculoma and lung adenocarcinoma. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analysis was performed to investigate the discriminating efficacy. Results. The mean age of patients with tuberculoma and adenocarcinoma was 46.8 ± 12.3 years (range, 28–64) and 61.1 ± 9.9 years (range, 41–77), respectively. No significant differences were observed concerning smoking history and smoking index, underlying disease, or tumor markers between the two groups. Univariate and multivariate analyses showed age and lobulation combined with pleural indentation demonstrated excellent discrimination. The sensitivity, specificity, accuracy, and the area under the ROC curve were 87.1%, 93.3%, 90.2%, and 0.956 (95% confidence interval (CI), 0.901–1.000), respectively. Conclusion. The combination of clinical characteristics and CT morphological features can be used to distinguish noncalcified, solitary tuberculoma from solid adenocarcinoma with high diagnostic performance and has a clinical application value.

    Abstract: This study aimed to develop and validate a computed tomography (CT)-based radiomics model to predict microsatellite instability (MSI) status in colorectal cancer patients and to identify the radiomics signature with the most robust and high performance from one of the three phases of triphasic enhanced CT. Methods In total, 502 colorectal cancer patients with preoperative contrast-enhanced CT images and available MSI status (441 in the training cohort and 61 in the external validation cohort) were enrolled from two centers in our retrospective study. Radiomics features of the entire primary tumor were extracted from arterial-, delayed-, and venous-phase CT images. The least absolute shrinkage and selection operator method was used to retain the features closely associated with MSI status. Radiomics, clinical, and combined Clinical Radiomics models were built to predict MSI status. Model performance was evaluated by receiver operating characteristic curve analysis. Results Thirty-two radiomics features showed significant correlation with MSI status. Delayed-phase models showed superior predictive performance compared to arterial- or venous-phase models. Additionally, age, location, and carcinoembryonic antigen were considered useful predictors of MSI status. The Clinical Radiomics nomogram that incorporated both clinical risk factors and radiomics parameters showed excellent performance, with an AUC, accuracy, and sensitivity of 0.898, 0.837, and 0.821 in the training cohort and 0.964, 0.918, and 1.000 in the validation cohort, respectively. Conclusions The proposed CT-based radiomics signature has excellent performance in predicting MSI status and could potentially guide individualized therapy.

    Abstract: This study aimed to develop a dual-energy spectral computed tomography (DESCT) nomogram that incorporated both clinical factors and DESCT parameters for individual preoperative prediction of lymph node metastasis (LNM) in patients with colorectal cancer (CRC). Material and Methods We retrospectively reviewed 167 pathologically confirmed patients with CRC who underwent enhanced DESCT preoperatively, and these patients were categorized into training ( n  = 117) and validation cohorts ( n  = 50). The monochromatic CT value, iodine concentration value (IC), and effective atomic number (Eff-Z) of the primary tumors were measured independently in the arterial phase (AP) and venous phase (VP) by two radiologists. DESCT parameters together with clinical factors were input into the prediction model for predicting LNM in patients with CRC. Logistic regression analyses were performed to screen for significant predictors of LNM, and these predictors were presented as an easy-to-use nomogram. The receiver operating characteristic curve and decision curve analysis (DCA) were used to evaluate the clinical usefulness of the nomogram. Results The logistic regression analysis showed that carcinoembryonic antigen, carbohydrate antigen 199, pericolorectal fat invasion, ICAP, ICVP, and Eff-ZVP were independent predictors in the predictive model. Based on these predictors, a quantitative nomogram was developed to predict individual LNM probability. The area under the curve (AUC) values of the nomogram were 0.876 in the training cohort and 0.852 in the validation cohort, respectively. DCA showed that our nomogram has outstanding clinical utility. Conclusions This study presents a clinical nomogram that incorporates clinical factors and DESCT parameters and can potentially be used as a clinical tool for individual preoperative prediction of LNM in patients with CRC.

    Abstract: Aquaporins (AQP) are not only water channel protein, but also potential prognostic indicator and therapeutic target for rectal cancer. Some previous studies have demonstrated the AQP expression could be estimated by ADC aqp value derived from ultra-high b-value diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI). We aim to determine whether ADC aqp could be a new and specific biomarker for indicating the AQP expression and prognostic factors of rectal cancer. 76 untreated patients with rectal cancer confirmed by colonoscopy biopsy were enrolled. ADC aqp value was generated from ultra-high b-value DWI with five b-values (1700–3500 s/mm 2 ). AQP (AQP1, 3 and 5)staining intensity was estimated by both of software (QuPath) and manual manner. The relationships between histogram features of ADC aqp and AQP staining intensity were analyzed. The correlations between histogram features of ADC aqp and differentiation degrees (good, moderate, poor), T stage (T1–2 vs T3–4), and lymph node status (N+ vs N−) were also evaluated respectively. The mean, 75 th percentile and 97.5 th percentile of ADC aqp were correlated with AQP1 staining intensity ( r  = 0.237, 0.323 and 0.362, respectively, all P  〈  0.05) . No correlation was found between the histogram features of ADC aqp and AQP3 or AQP5 staining intensity. The mean, 50 th percentile, 75 th percentile and 97.5 th percentile of ADC aqp value exhibited significant differences between differentiation status (all P   〈  0.05). Histogram features of ADC aqp value showed no significant differences in two subgroups of T stage and lymph node status (all P   〉  0.05). Histogram analysis showed that the ADC aqp value derived from ultra-high b-value DWI of rectal cancer could reflect AQP1’s expression and rectal cancer’s malignancy degree. ADC aqp might be a new imaging biomarker for evaluating rectal cancer.
