Gitto S, Cuocolo R, Huisman M, Messina C, Albano D, Omoumi P, Kotter E, Maas M, Van Ooijen P, Sconfienza LM. CT and MRI radiomics of bone and soft-tissue sarcomas: an updated systematic review of reproducibility and validation strategies. Insights Imaging 2024; 15:54. [PMID: 38411750 PMCID: PMC10899555 DOI: 10.1186/s13244-024-01614-x] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/22/2023] [Accepted: 01/09/2024] [Indexed: 02/28/2024] Open
Abstract
OBJECTIVE To systematically review radiomic feature reproducibility and model validation strategies in recent studies dealing with CT and MRI radiomics of bone and soft-tissue sarcomas, thus updating a previous version of this review which included studies published up to 2020. METHODS A literature search was conducted on EMBASE and PubMed databases for papers published between January 2021 and March 2023. Data regarding radiomic feature reproducibility and model validation strategies were extracted and analyzed. RESULTS Out of 201 identified papers, 55 were included. They dealt with radiomics of bone (n = 23) or soft-tissue (n = 32) tumors. Thirty-two (out of 54 employing manual or semiautomatic segmentation, 59%) studies included a feature reproducibility analysis. Reproducibility was assessed based on intra/interobserver segmentation variability in 30 (55%) and geometrical transformations of the region of interest in 2 (4%) studies. At least one machine learning validation technique was used for model development in 34 (62%) papers, and K-fold cross-validation was employed most frequently. A clinical validation of the model was reported in 38 (69%) papers. It was performed using a separate dataset from the primary institution (internal test) in 22 (40%), an independent dataset from another institution (external test) in 14 (25%) and both in 2 (4%) studies. CONCLUSIONS Compared to papers published up to 2020, a clear improvement was noted with almost double publications reporting methodological aspects related to reproducibility and validation. Larger multicenter investigations including external clinical validation and the publication of databases in open-access repositories could further improve methodology and bring radiomics from a research area to the clinical stage. CRITICAL RELEVANCE STATEMENT An improvement in feature reproducibility and model validation strategies has been shown in this updated systematic review on radiomics of bone and soft-tissue sarcomas, highlighting efforts to enhance methodology and bring radiomics from a research area to the clinical stage. KEY POINTS • 2021-2023 radiomic studies on CT and MRI of musculoskeletal sarcomas were reviewed. • Feature reproducibility was assessed in more than half (59%) of the studies. • Model clinical validation was performed in 69% of the studies. • Internal (44%) and/or external (29%) test datasets were employed for clinical validation.

Abstract
Sarcomas are heterogeneous rare tumors predominantly affecting the musculoskeletal (MSK) system. Due to significant variations in their natural history and variable response to conventional treatments, the discovery of novel diagnostic and prognostic biomarkers to guide therapeutic decision-making is an active and ongoing field of research. As new cellular, molecular, and metabolic biomarkers continue to be discovered, quantitative radiologic imaging is becoming increasingly important in sarcoma management. Radiomics offers the potential for discovering novel imaging diagnostic and predictive biomarkers using standard-of-care medical imaging. In this review, we detail the core concepts of radiomics and the application of radiomics to date in MSK sarcoma research. Also described are specific challenges related to radiomic studies, as well as viewpoints on clinical adoption and future perspectives in the field.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES This study aimed to develop and validate radiomics models on the basis of computed tomography (CT) and clinical features for the prediction of pulmonary metastases (MT) in patients with Ewing sarcoma (ES) within 2 years after diagnosis. MATERIALS AND METHODS A total of 143 patients with a histopathological diagnosis of ES were enrolled in this study (114 in the training cohort and 29 in the validation cohort). The regions of interest (ROIs) were handcrafted along the boundary of each tumor on the CT and CT-enhanced (CTE) images, and radiomic features were extracted. Six different models were built, including three radiomics models (CT, CTE and ComB models) and three clinical-radiomics models (CT_clinical, CTE_clinical and ComB_clinical models). The area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC), and accuracy were calculated to evaluate the different models, and DeLong test was used to compare the AUCs of the models. RESULTS Among the clinical risk factors, the therapeutic method had significant differences between the MT and non-MT groups (P<0.01). The six models performed well in predicting pulmonary metastases in patients with ES, and the ComB model (AUC: 0.866/0.852 in training/validation cohort) achieved the highest AUC among the six models. However, no statistically significant difference was observed between the AUC of the models. CONCLUSIONS In patients with ES, clinical-radiomics model created using radiomics signature and clinical features provided favorable ability and accuracy for pulmonary metastases prediction.

Abstract
BACKGROUND This study aims to present a radiomic application in diagnosing the long head of biceps (LHB) tendinitis. Moreover, we evaluated whether machine learning-derived radiomic features recognize LHB tendinitis. PATIENTS AND METHODS A total of 170 patients were reviewed. All LHB tendinitis patients were diagnosed under arthroscopy. Radiomic features were extracted from preoperative magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), and the input dataset was divided into a training set and a test set. For feature selection, the t test and least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) methods were used, and random forest (RF) and support vector machine (SVM) were used as machine learning classifiers. The sensitivity, specificity, accuracy, and area under the curve (AUC) of each model's receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves were calculated to evaluate model performance. RESULTS In total, 851 radiomic features were extracted, with 109 radiomic features extracted using a t test and 20 radiomic features extracted using the LASSO method. The random forest classifier shows the highest sensitivity, specificity, accuracy, and AUC (0.52, 0.92, 0.73, and 0.72). CONCLUSION The classifier contract by 20 radiomic features demonstrated a good ability to predict extra-articular LHB tendinitis.However because of poor segmentation reliability, the value of Radiomic in LHB tendinitis still needs to be further explored.

BMC Med Imaging 2023; 23:40. [PMID: 36959569 PMCID: PMC10037898 DOI: 10.1186/s12880-023-00991-x] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/13/2022] [Accepted: 03/06/2023] [Indexed: 03/25/2023] Open
Abstract
OBJECTIVES Osteosarcoma (OS) is the most common primary malignant bone tumor in adolescents. Lung metastasis (LM) occurs in more than half of patients at different stages of the disease course, which is one of the important factors affecting the long-term survival of OS. To develop and validate machine learning radiomics model based on radiographic and clinical features that could predict LM in OS within 3 years. METHODS 486 patients (LM = 200, non-LM = 286) with histologically proven OS were retrospectively analyzed and divided into a training set (n = 389) and a validation set (n = 97). Radiographic features and risk factors (sex, age, tumor location, etc.) associated with LM of patients were evaluated. We built eight clinical-radiomics models (k-nearest neighbor [KNN], logistic regression [LR], support vector machine [SVM], random forest [RF], Decision Tree [DT], Gradient Boosting Decision Tree [GBDT], AdaBoost, and extreme gradient boosting [XGBoost]) and compared their performance. The area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC) and accuracy (ACC) were used to evaluate different models. RESULTS The radscore, ALP, and tumor size had significant differences between the LM and non-LM groups (tradscore = -5.829, χ2ALP = 97.137, tsize = -3.437, P < 0.01). Multivariable LR analyses showed that ALP was an important indicator for predicting LM of OS (odds ratio [OR] = 7.272, P < 0.001). Among the eight models, the SVM-based clinical-radiomics model had the best performance in the validation set (AUC = 0.807, ACC = 0.784). CONCLUSION The clinical-radiomics model had good performance in predicting LM in OS, which would be helpful in clinical decision-making.

Robustness of Radiomic Features: Two-Dimensional versus Three-Dimensional MRI-Based Feature Reproducibility in Lipomatous Soft-Tissue Tumors. Diagnostics (Basel) 2023; 13:diagnostics13020258. [PMID: 36673068 PMCID: PMC9858448 DOI: 10.3390/diagnostics13020258] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/24/2022] [Revised: 12/10/2022] [Accepted: 01/07/2023] [Indexed: 01/13/2023] Open
Abstract
This retrospective study aimed to compare the intra- and inter-observer manual-segmentation variability in the feature reproducibility between two-dimensional (2D) and three-dimensional (3D) magnetic-resonance imaging (MRI)-based radiomic features. The study included patients with lipomatous soft-tissue tumors that were diagnosed with histopathology and underwent MRI scans. Tumor segmentation based on the 2D and 3D MRI images was performed by two observers to assess the intra- and inter-observer variability. In both the 2D and the 3D segmentations, the radiomic features were extracted from the normalized images. Regarding the stability of the features, the intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC) was used to evaluate the intra- and inter-observer segmentation variability. Features with ICC > 0.75 were considered reproducible. The degree of feature robustness was classified as low, moderate, or high. Additionally, we compared the efficacy of 2D and 3D contour-focused segmentation in terms of the effects of the stable feature rate, sensitivity, specificity, and diagnostic accuracy of machine learning on the reproducible features. In total, 93 and 107 features were extracted from the 2D and 3D images, respectively. Only 35 features from the 2D images and 63 features from the 3D images were reproducible. The stable feature rate for the 3D segmentation was more significant than for the 2D segmentation (58.9% vs. 37.6%, p = 0.002). The majority of the features for the 3D segmentation had moderate-to-high robustness, while 40.9% of the features for the 2D segmentation had low robustness. The diagnostic accuracy of the machine-learning model for the 2D segmentation was close to that for the 3D segmentation (88% vs. 90%). In both the 2D and the 3D segmentation, the specificity values were equal to 100%. However, the sensitivity for the 2D segmentation was lower than for the 3D segmentation (75% vs. 83%). For the 2D + 3D radiomic features, the model achieved a diagnostic accuracy of 87% (sensitivity, 100%, and specificity, 80%). Both 2D and 3D MRI-based radiomic features of lipomatous soft-tissue tumors are reproducible. With a higher stable feature rate, 3D contour-focused segmentation should be selected for the feature-extraction process.

Abstract
PURPOSE This study aims to evaluate the value of applying X-ray and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) models based on radiomics feature to predict response of extremity high-grade osteosarcoma to neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC). MATERIALS AND METHODS A retrospective dataset was assembled involving 102 consecutive patients (training dataset, n = 72; validation dataset, n = 30) diagnosed with extremity high-grade osteosarcoma. The clinical features of age, gender, pathological type, lesion location, bone destruction type, size, alkaline phosphatase (ALP), and lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) were evaluated. Imaging features were extracted from X-ray and multi-parametric MRI (T1-weighted, T2-weighted, and contrast-enhanced T1-weighted) data. Features were selected using a two-stage process comprising minimal-redundancy-maximum-relevance (mRMR) and least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) regression. Logistic regression (LR) modelling was then applied to establish models based on clinical, X-ray, and multi-parametric MRI data, as well as combinations of these datasets. Each model was evaluated using sensitivity, specificity, and area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC) with a 95% confidence interval (CI). RESULTS AUCs of 5 models using clinical, X-ray radiomics, MRI radiomics, X-ray plus MRI radiomics, and combination of all were 0.760 (95% CI: 0.583-0.937), 0.706 (95% CI: 0.506-0.905), 0.751 (95% CI: 0.572-0.930), 0.796 (95% CI: 0.629-0.963), 0.828 (95% CI: 0.676-0.980), respectively. The DeLong test showed no significant difference between any pair of models (p > 0.05). The combined model yielded higher performance than the clinical and radiomics models as demonstrated by net reclassification improvement (NRI) and integrated difference improvement (IDI) values, respectively. This combined model was also found to be clinically useful in the decision curve analysis (DCA). CONCLUSION Modelling based on combination of clinical and radiomics data improves the ability to predict pathological responses to NAC in extremity high-grade osteosarcoma compared to the models based on either clinical or radiomics data.

Abstract
Lung cancer is one of the leading causes of cancer-related deaths worldwide, and non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) accounts for a large proportion of lung cancer cases, with few diagnostic and therapeutic targets currently available for NSCLC. This study aimed to identify specific biomarkers for NSCLC. We obtained three gene-expression profiles from the Gene Expression Omnibus database (GSE18842, GSE21933, and GSE32863) and screened for differentially expressed genes (DEGs) between NSCLC and normal lung tissue. Enrichment analyses were performed using Gene Ontology, Disease Ontology, and the Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes. Machine learning methods were used to identify the optimal diagnostic biomarkers for NSCLC using least absolute shrinkage and selection operator logistic regression, and support vector machine recursive feature elimination. CIBERSORT was used to assess immune cell infiltration in NSCLC and the correlation between biomarkers and immune cells. Finally, using western blot, small interfering RNA, Cholecystokinin-8, and transwell assays, the biological functions of biomarkers with high predictive value were validated. A total of 371 DEGs (165 up-regulated genes and 206 down-regulated genes) were identified, and enrichment analysis revealed that these DEGs might be linked to the development and progression of NSCLC. ABCA8, ADAMTS8, ASPA, CEP55, FHL1, PYCR1, RAMP3, and TPX2 genes were identified as novel diagnostic biomarkers for NSCLC. Monocytes were the most visible activated immune cells in NSCLC. The knockdown of the TPX2 gene, a biomarker with a high predictive value, inhibited A549 cell proliferation and migration. This study identified eight potential diagnostic biomarkers for NSCLC. Further, the TPX2 gene may be a therapeutic target for NSCLC.

Abstract
Abstract
Objective
To update the systematic review of radiomics in osteosarcoma.
Methods
PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, China National Knowledge Infrastructure, and Wanfang Data were searched to identify articles on osteosarcoma radiomics until May 15, 2022. The studies were assessed by Radiomics Quality Score (RQS), Transparent Reporting of a multivariable prediction model for Individual Prognosis Or Diagnosis (TRIPOD) statement, Checklist for Artificial Intelligence in Medical Imaging (CLAIM), and modified Quality Assessment of Diagnostic Accuracy Studies (QUADAS-2) tool. The evidence supporting radiomics application for osteosarcoma was rated according to meta-analysis results.
Results
Twenty-nine articles were included. The average of the ideal percentage of RQS, the TRIPOD adherence rate and the CLAIM adherence rate were 29.2%, 59.2%, and 63.7%, respectively. RQS identified a radiomics-specific issue of phantom study. TRIPOD addressed deficiency in blindness of assessment. CLAIM and TRIPOD both pointed out shortness in missing data handling and sample size or power calculation. CLAIM identified extra disadvantages in data de-identification and failure analysis. External validation and open science were emphasized by all the above three tools. The risk of bias and applicability concerns were mainly related to the index test. The meta-analysis of radiomics predicting neoadjuvant chemotherapy response by MRI presented a diagnostic odds ratio (95% confidence interval) of 28.83 (10.27–80.95) on testing datasets and was rated as weak evidence.
Conclusions
The quality of osteosarcoma radiomics studies is insufficient. More investigation is needed before using radiomics to optimize osteosarcoma treatment. CLAIM is recommended to guide the design and reporting of radiomics research.

Abstract
Objectives We aimed to develop and validate radiomic nomograms to allow preoperative differentiation between benign- and malignant parotid gland tumors (BPGT and MPGT, respectively), as well as between pleomorphic adenomas (PAs) and Warthin tumors (WTs). Materials and Methods This retrospective study enrolled 183 parotid gland tumors (68 PAs, 62 WTs, and 53 MPGTs) and divided them into training (n = 128) and testing (n = 55) cohorts. In total, 2553 radiomics features were extracted from fat-saturated T2-weighted images, apparent diffusion coefficient maps, and contrast-enhanced T1-weighted images to construct single-, double-, and multi-sequence combined radiomics models, respectively. The radiomics score (Rad-score) was calculated using the best radiomics model and clinical features to develop the radiomics nomogram. The receiver operating characteristic curve and area under the curve (AUC) were used to assess these models, and their performances were compared using DeLong’s test. Calibration curves and decision curve analysis were used to assess the clinical usefulness of these models. Results The multi-sequence combined radiomics model exhibited better differentiation performance (BPGT vs. MPGT, AUC=0.863; PA vs. MPGT, AUC=0.929; WT vs. MPGT, AUC=0.825; PA vs. WT, AUC=0.927) than the single- and double sequence radiomics models. The nomogram based on the multi-sequence combined radiomics model and clinical features attained an improved classification performance (BPGT vs. MPGT, AUC=0.907; PA vs. MPGT, AUC=0.961; WT vs. MPGT, AUC=0.879; PA vs. WT, AUC=0.967). Conclusions Radiomics nomogram yielded excellent diagnostic performance in differentiating BPGT from MPGT, PA from MPGT, and PA from WT.
