Abstract
Objective: To investigate the clinicopathological features of perivascular epithelioid cell tumor (PEComa) of the lung. Methods: Eight PEComa cases of the lung diagnosed at the First Affiliated Hospital of Soochow University, Suzhou, China from July 2008 to December 2021 were collected and subject to immunohistochemical staining, fluorescence in situ hybridization and next generation sequencing. The relevant literature was reviewed and the clinicopathological features were analyzed. Results: There were 5 males and 3 females, aged from 18 to 70 years (mean 39 years). There were 3 cases of the right upper lung, 3 cases of the left lower lung, 1 case of the left upper lung and 1 case of the right middle lung. Seven cases were solitary and 1 case was multifocal (4 lesions). Seven cases were benign while one was malignant. The tumors were all located in the peripheral part of the lung, with a maximum diameter of 0.2-4.0 cm. Grossly, they were oval and well circumscribed. Microscopically, the tumor cells were oval, short spindle-shaped, arranged in solid nests, acinar or hemangiopericytoma-like patterns, with clear or eosinophilic cytoplasm. The stroma was rich in blood vessels with hyalinization. Coagulated necrosis and high-grade nuclei were seen in the malignant case, and calcification was seen in 2 cases. Immunohistochemically, the tumor cells were positive for Melan A (8/8), HMB45 (7/8), CD34 (6/8), TFE3 (4/7), and SMA (3/8). All cases were negative for CKpan and S-100. TFE3 (Xp11.2) gene fusion was examined using the TFE3 break-apart fluorescence in situ hybridization in 5 cases, in which only the malignant case was positive. The next generation sequencing revealed the SFPQ-TFE3 [t(X;1)(p11.2;p34)] fusion. Follow-up of the patients ranged from 12 to 173 months while one patient was lost to the follow-up. The malignant case had tumor metastasis to the brain 4 years after the operation and then received radiotherapy. Other 6 cases had no recurrence and metastasis, and all the 7 patients survived. Conclusions: Most of the PEComas of the lung are benign. When there are malignant morphological features such as necrosis, high-grade nuclei or SFPQ-TFE3 gene fusion, close follow-up seems necessary.

Abstract
The therapeutic possibilities of endoscopy have rapidly increased in the last decades and now allow organ-sparing treatment of early upper gastrointestinal malignancy as well as an increasing number of options for symptom palliation. This review contains an overview of the interventional endoscopic procedures in upper gastrointestinal malignancies. It describes endoscopic treatment of early oesophageal and gastric cancers, and the palliative options in managing dysphagia and gastric outlet obstruction. It also provides an overview of the therapeutic possibilities of biliary endoscopy, such as retrograde stenting and radiofrequency biliary ablation. Endoscopic ultrasound-guided therapeutic options are discussed, including biliary drainage, gastrojejunostomy and coeliac axis block. To aid in clinical decision making, the procedures are described in the context of their indication, efficacy, risks and limitations.

Abstract
BACKGROUND BI-RADS 4 breast lesions are suspicious for malignancy with a range from 2 to 95%, indicating that numerous benign lesions are unnecessarily biopsied. Thus, we aimed to investigate whether high-temporal-resolution dynamic contrast-enhanced MRI (H_DCE-MRI) would be superior to conventional low-temporal-resolution DCE-MRI (L_DCE-MRI) in the diagnosis of BI-RADS 4 breast lesions. METHODS This single-center study was approved by the IRB. From April 2015 to June 2017, patients with breast lesions were prospectively included and randomly assigned to undergo either H_DCE-MRI, including 27 phases, or L_DCE-MRI, including 7 phases. Patients with BI-RADS 4 lesions were diagnosed by the senior radiologist in this study. Using a two-compartment extended Tofts model and a three-dimensional volume of interest, several pharmacokinetic parameters reflecting hemodynamics, including Ktrans, Kep, Ve, and Vp, were obtained from the intralesional, perilesional and background parenchymal enhancement areas, which were labeled the Lesion, Peri and BPE areas, respectively. Models were developed based on hemodynamic parameters, and the performance of these models in discriminating between benign and malignant lesions was evaluated by receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis. RESULTS A total of 140 patients were included in the study and underwent H_DCE-MRI (n = 62) or L_DCE-MRI (n = 78) scans; 56 of these 140 patients had BI-RADS 4 lesions. Some pharmacokinetic parameters from H_DCE-MRI (Lesion_Ktrans, Kep, and Vp; Peri_Ktrans, Kep, and Vp) and from L_DCE-MRI (Lesion_Kep, Peri_Vp, BPE_Ktrans and BPE_Vp) were significantly different between benign and malignant breast lesions (P < 0.01). ROC analysis showed that Lesion_Ktrans (AUC = 0.866), Lesion_Kep (AUC = 0.929), Lesion_Vp (AUC = 0.872), Peri_Ktrans (AUC = 0.733), Peri_Kep (AUC = 0.810), and Peri_Vp (AUC = 0.857) in the H_DCE-MRI group had good discrimination performance. Parameters from the BPE area showed no differentiating ability in the H_DCE-MRI group. Lesion_Kep (AUC = 0.767), Peri_Vp (AUC = 0.726), and BPE_Ktrans and BPE_Vp (AUC = 0.687 and 0.707) could differentiate between benign and malignant breast lesions in the L_DCE-MRI group. The models were compared with the senior radiologist's assessment for the identification of BI-RADS 4 breast lesions. The AUC, sensitivity and specificity of Lesion_Kep (0.963, 100.0%, and 88.9%, respectively) in the H_DCE-MRI group were significantly higher than those of the same parameter in the L_DCE-MRI group (0.663, 69.6% and 75.0%, respectively) for the assessment of BI-RADS 4 breast lesions. The DeLong test was conducted, and there was a significant difference only between Lesion_Kep in the H_DCE-MRI group and the senior radiologist (P = 0.04). CONCLUSIONS Pharmacokinetic parameters (Ktrans, Kep and Vp) from the intralesional and perilesional regions on high-temporal-resolution DCE-MRI, especially the intralesional Kep parameter, can improve the assessment of benign and malignant BI-RADS 4 breast lesions to avoid unnecessary biopsy.

Abstract
Non-invasive prediction for KIT/PDGFRA status in GIST is a challenging problem. This study aims to evaluate whether CT based sarcopenia could differentiate KIT/PDGFRA wild-type gastrointestinal stromal tumor (wt-GIST) from the mutant-type GIST (mu-GIST), and to evaluate genetic features of GIST. A total of 174 patients with GIST (wt-GIST = 52) were retrospectively identified between January 2011 to October 2019. A sarcopenia nomogram was constructed by multivariate logistic regression. The performance of the nomogram was evaluated by discrimination, calibration curve, and decision curve. Genomic data was obtained from our own specimens and also from the open databases cBioPortal. Data was analyzed by R version 3.6.1 and clusterProfiler ( http://cbioportal.org/msk-impact ). There were significantly higher incidence (75.0% vs. 48.4%) and more severe sarcopenia in patients with wt-GIST than in patients with mu-GIST. Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that sarcopenia score (fitted based on age, gender and skeletal muscle index), and muscle fat index were independent predictors for higher risk of wt-GIST (P < 0.05 for both the training and validation cohorts). Our sarcopenia nomogram achieved a promising efficiency with an AUC of 0.879 for the training cohort, and 0.9099 for the validation cohort with a satisfying consistency in the calibration curve. Favorable clinical usefulness was observed using decision curve analysis. The additional gene sequencing analysis based on both our data and the external data demonstrated aberrant signal pathways being closely associated with sarcopenia in the wt-GIST. Our study supported the use of CT-based assessment of sarcopenia in differentiating the wt-GIST from the mu-GIST preoperatively.

Abstract
BACKGROUND About 10-20% of patients with Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) infection progressed to severe illness within a week or so after initially diagnosed as mild infection. Identification of this subgroup of patients was crucial for early aggressive intervention to improve survival. The purpose of this study was to evaluate whether computer tomography (CT) - derived measurements of body composition such as myosteatosis indicating fat deposition inside the muscles could be used to predict the risk of transition to severe illness in patients with initial diagnosis of mild COVID-19 infection. METHODS Patients with laboratory-confirmed COVID-19 infection presenting initially as having the mild common-subtype illness were retrospectively recruited between January 21, 2020 and February 19, 2020. CT-derived body composition measurements were obtained from the initial chest CT images at the level of the twelfth thoracic vertebra (T12) and were used to build models to predict the risk of transition. A myosteatosis nomogram was constructed using multivariate logistic regression incorporating both clinical variables and myosteatosis measurements. The performance of the prediction models was assessed by receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve including the area under the curve (AUC). The performance of the nomogram was evaluated by discrimination, calibration curve, and decision curve. RESULTS A total of 234 patients were included in this study. Thirty-one of the enrolled patients transitioned to severe illness. Myosteatosis measurements including SM-RA (skeletal muscle radiation attenuation) and SMFI (skeletal muscle fat index) score fitted with SMFI, age and gender, were significantly associated with risk of transition for both the training and validation cohorts (P < 0.01). The nomogram combining the SM-RA, SMFI score and clinical model improved prediction for the transition risk with an AUC of 0.85 [95% CI, 0.75 to 0.95] for the training cohort and 0.84 [95% CI, 0.71 to 0.97] for the validation cohort, as compared to the nomogram of the clinical model with AUC of 0.75 and 0.74 for the training and validation cohorts respectively. Favorable clinical utility was observed using decision curve analysis. CONCLUSION We found CT-derived measurements of thoracic myosteatosis to be associated with higher risk of transition to severe illness in patients affected by COVID-19 who presented initially as having the mild common-subtype infection. Our study showed the relevance of skeletal muscle examination in the overall assessment of disease progression and prognosis of patients with COVID-19 infection.

Abstract
Objective
Accurate preoperative assessment of extramural vascular invasion (EMVI) is critical for the treatment and prognosis of rectal cancer. The aim of our research was to develop an assessment model by texture analysis for preoperative prediction of EMVI.
Materials and methods
This study enrolled 44 rectal patients as train cohort, 7 patients as validation cohort and 18 patients as test cohort. A total of 236 texture features from DCE MR imaging quantitative parameters were extracted for each patient (59 features of Ktrans, Kep, Ve and Vp), and key features were selected by least absolute shrinkage and selection operator regression (LASSO). Finally, clinical independent risk factors, conventional MRI assessment, and T-score were incorporated to construct an assessment model using multivariable logistic regression.
Results
The T-score calculated using the 4 selected key features were significantly correlated with EMVI (p < 0.010). The area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC) was 0.797 for discriminating between EMVI-positive and EMVI-negative patients with a sensitivity of 88.2% and specificity of 70.4%. The conventional MRI assessment of EMVI had a sensitivity of 23.53% and a specificity of 96.30%. The assessment model showed a greatly improved performance with an AUC of 0.954 (sensitivity, 88.2%; specificity, 92.6%) in train cohort, 0.833 (sensitivity, 66.7%; specificity, 100%) in validation cohort and 0.877 in test cohort, respectively.
Conclusions
The assessment model showed an excellent performance in preoperative assessment of EMVI. It demonstrates strong potential for improving the accuracy of EMVI assessment and provide a reliable basis for individualized treatment decisions.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Early detection of non-response to neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy (nCRT) for locally advanced colorectal cancer (LARC) remains challenging. We aimed to assess whether pretreatment radiotherapy planning computed tomography (CT) radiomics could distinguish the patients with no response or no downstaging after nCRT from those with response and downstaging after nCRT. MATERIALS AND METHODS Patients with LARC who were treated with nCRT were retrospectively enrolled between March 2009 and March 2019. Traditional radiological characteristics were analyzed by visual inspection and radiomic features were analyzed through computational methods from the pretreatment radiotherapy planning CT images. Differentiation models were constructed using radiomic methods and clinicopathological characteristics for predicting non-response to nCRT. Model performance was assessed for classification efficiency, calibration, discrimination, and clinical application. RESULTS This study enrolled a total of 215 patients, including 151 patients in the training cohort (50 non-responders and 101 responders) and 64 patients in the validation cohort (21 non-responders and 43 responders). For predicting non-response, the model constructed with an ensemble machine learning method had higher performance with area under the curve (AUC) values of 0.92 and 0.89 as compared to the model constructed with the logistic regression method (AUC: 0.72 and 0.71 for the training and validation cohorts, respectively). Both decision curve and calibration curve analyses confirmed that the ensemble machine learning model had higher prediction performance. CONCLUSION Pretreatment CT radiomics achieved satisfying performance in predicting non-response to nCRT and could be helpful to assist in treatment planning for patients with LARC.

Abstract
Purpose Sclerosing adenosis (SA) is a benign lesion that could mimic breast carcinoma and be evaluated as malignancy by Breast Imaging-Reporting and Data System (BI-RADS) analysis. We aimed to construct and validate the performance of radiomic model based on dynamic contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (DCE-MRI) compared to BI-RADS analysis to identify SA. Methods Sixty-seven patients with invasive ductal carcinoma (IDC) and 58 patients with SA were included in this retrospective study from two institutions. The 125 patients were divided into a training cohort (n= 88) from institution I and a validation cohort from institution II (n=37). Dynamic contrast-enhanced sequences including one pre-contrast and five dynamic post-contrast series were obtained for all cases with different 3T scanners. Single-phase enhancement, multi-phase enhancement, and dynamic radiomic features were extracted from DCE-MRI. The least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) logistic regression and cross-validation was performed to build the radscore of each single-phase enhancement and the final model combined multi-phase and dynamic radiomic features. The diagnostic performance of radiomics was evaluated by receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analysis and compared to the performance of BI-RADS analysis. The classification performance was tested using external validation. Results In the training cohort, the AUCs of BI-RADS analysis were 0.71 (95%CI [0.60, 0.80]), 0.78 (95%CI [0.67, 0.86]), and 0.80 (95%CI [0.70, 0.88]), respectively. In single-phase analysis, the second enhanced phase radiomic signature achieved the highest AUC of 0.88 (95%CI [0.79, 0.94]) in distinguishing SA from IDC. Nine multi-phase radiomic features and two dynamic radiomic features showed the best predictive ability for final model building. The final model improved the AUC to 0.92 (95%CI [0.84, 0.97]), and showed statistically significant differences with BI-RADS analysis (p<0.05 for all). In the validation cohort, the AUC of the final model was 0.90 (95%CI [0.75, 0.97]), which was higher than all BI-RADS analyses and showed statistically significant differences with one of the BI-RADS analysis observers (p = 0.03). Conclusions Radiomics based on DCE-MRI could show better diagnostic performance compared to BI-RADS analysis in differentiating SA from IDC, which may contribute to clinical diagnosis and treatment.

Abstract
Background and Purpose Computerized tomography (CT) scans are commonly performed to assist in diagnosis and treatment of locally advanced rectal cancer (LARC). This study assessed the usefulness of pretreatment CT-based radiomics for predicting pathological complete response (pCR) of LARC to neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy (nCRT). Materials and Methods Patients with LARC who underwent nCRT followed by total mesorectal excision surgery from July 2010 to December 2018 were enrolled in this retrospective study. A total of 340 radiomic features were extracted from pretreatment contrast-enhanced CT images. The most relevant features to pCR were selected using the least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) method and a radiomic signature was generated. Predictive models were built with radiomic features and clinico-pathological variables. Model performance was assessed with decision curve analysis and was validated in an independent cohort. Results The pCR was achieved in 44 of the 216 consecutive patients (20.4%) in this study. The model with the best performance used both radiomics and clinical variables including radiomic signatures, distance to anal verge, lymphocyte-to-monocyte ratio, and carcinoembryonic antigen. This combined model discriminated between patients with and without pCR with an area under the curve of 0.926 and 0.872 in the training and the validation cohorts, respectively. The combined model also showed better performance than models built with radiomic or clinical variables alone. Conclusion Our combined predictive model was robust in differentiating patients with and without response to nCRT.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To identify specific imaging and clinicopathological features of a rare potentially malignant epithelioid variant of renal lipid-poor angiomyolipoma (E-lpAML). METHODS A total of 20 patients with E-lpAML and 43 patients with other lpAML were retrospectively included. Multiphase computed tomography (CT) imaging features and clinicopathological findings were recorded. Independent predictors for E-lpAML were identified using multivariate logistic regression and were used to construct a diagnostic score for differentiation of E-lpAML from other lpAML. RESULTS The E-lpAML group consisted of 6 men and 14 women (age median ± SD: 39.45 ± 15.70, range: 16.0-68.0 years). E-lpAML tended to appear as hyperdense mass lesions located at the renal sinus (n = 8, 40%) or at the renal cortex (n = 12, 60%), with a "fast-in and slow-out" enhancement pattern (n = 20, 100%), cystic degeneration (n = 18, 90%), "eyeball" sign (n = 11, 55%), and tumor neo-vasculature (n = 15, 75%) on CT. Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that the independent predictors for diagnosing E-lpAML were cystic degeneration on CT imaging and CT value of the tumor in corticomedullary phase of enhancement. A predictive model was built with the two predictors, achieving an area under the curve (AUC) of 93.5% (95% confidence interval (95%CI): 84.3-98.2%) with a sensitivity of 95.0% (95%CI: 75.1-99.9%) and a specificity of 83.72% (95%CI: 69.3-93.2%). CONCLUSION We identified specific CT imaging features and predictors that could contribute to the correct diagnosis of E-lpAML. Our findings should be helpful for clinical management of E-lpAML which could potentially be malignant and may require nephron-sparing surgery while other lpAML tumors which are benign require no intervention. KEY POINTS • It is important to differentiate renal epithelioid lipid-poor angiomyolipoma (E-lpAML) from other lpAML because of differences in clinical management. • E-lpAML tumors tend to be large hyperdense tumors in the renal sinus with cystic degeneration and "fast-in and slow-out" pattern of enhancement. • Our CT imaging-based predictive model was robust in its performance for predicting E-lpAML from other lpAML tumors.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To develop a nonenhanced CT-based radiomic signature for the differentiation of iodinated contrast extravasation from intraparenchymal haemorrhage (IPH) following mechanical thrombectomy. METHODS Patients diagnosed with acute ischaemic stroke who underwent mechanical thrombectomy in 4 institutions from December 2017 to June 2020 were included in this retrospective study. The study population was divided into a training cohort and a validation cohort. The nonenhanced CT images taken after mechanical thrombectomy were used to extract radiomic features. The maximum relevance minimum redundancy (mRMR) algorithm was used to eliminate confounding variables. Afterwards, least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) logistic regression was used to generate the radiomic signature. The diagnostic performance of the radiomic signature was evaluated by the area under the curve (AUC), accuracy, specificity, sensitivity, positive predictive value (PPV), and negative predictive value (NPV). RESULTS A total of 166 intraparenchymal areas of hyperattenuation from 101 patients were used. The areas of hyperattenuation were randomly allocated to the training and validation cohorts at a ratio of 7:3. The AUC of the radiomic signature was 0.848 (95% confidence interval (CI) 0.780-0.917) in the training cohort and 0.826 (95% CI 0.705-0.948) in the validation cohort. The accuracy of the radiomic signature was 77.6%, with a sensitivity of 76.7%, a specificity of 78.9%, a PPV of 85.2%, and a NPV of 68.2% in the validation cohort. CONCLUSIONS The radiomic signature constructed based on initial post-operative nonenhanced CT after mechanical thrombectomy can effectively differentiate IPH from iodinated contrast extravasation. KEY POINTS • Radiomic features were extracted from intraparenchymal areas of hyperattenuation on initial post-operative CT scans after mechanical thrombectomy. • The nonenhanced CT-based radiomic signature can differentiate IPH from iodinated contrast extravasation early. • The radiomic signature may help prevent unnecessary rescanning after mechanical thrombectomy, especially in cases where contrast extravasation is highly suggestive.

Abstract
Objective To predict the sensitivity of nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) to neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NACT) based on magnetic resonance (MR) radiomics and clinical nomograms prior to NACT. Materials and Methods From January 2014 to July 2015, 284 consecutive patients with pathologically confirmed NPC underwent 3.0 T MR imaging (MRI) before initiating NACT. The patients’ data were randomly assigned to a training set (n = 200) or a test set (n = 84) at a ratio of 7:3. The clinical data included sex, tumor (T) stage, lymph node (N) stage, American Joint Committee on Cancer (AJCC) stage, and the plasma concentration of Epstein–Barr virus (EBV) DNA. The regions of interest (ROI) were manually segmented on the axial T2-weighted imaging (T2WI) and enhanced T1-weighted imaging (T1WI) sequences using ITK-SNAP software. The radiomics data were post-processed using AK software. Moreover, the Maximum Relevance Minimum Redundancy (mRMR) algorithm and the Least Absolute Shrinkage and Selection Operator (LASSO) were adopted for dimensionality reduction to screen for the features that best predicted the treatment efficacy, and clinical risk factors were used in combination with radiomics scores (Rad-scores) to construct the clinical radiomics-based nomogram. DeLong’s test was utilized to compare the area under the curve (AUC) values of the clinical radiomics-based nomogram, radiomics model, and clinical nomogram. Decision curve analysis (DCA) was employed to evaluate each model’s net benefit. Results The clinical nomogram was constructed based on data from patients who were randomly assigned according to T2WI and enhanced T1WI sequences. In the training set, the T2WI sequence-based clinical radiomics nomogram and the radiomics model outperformed the clinical nomogram in predicting the NACT efficacy (AUC, 0.81 vs. 0.60, p = 0.001279 and 0.76 vs. 0.60, p = 0.03026). These findings were well-verified in the test set. The enhanced T1WI sequence-based clinical radiomics nomogram exhibited better performance in predicting treatment efficacy than the clinical nomogram (AUC, 0.79 vs. 0.62, respectively; p = 0.0000834). The DCA revealed that the T2WI and clinical radiomics-based nomograms resulted in a net benefit in predicting the NACT efficacy. Conclusion The clinical radiomics-based nomogram improved the prediction of NACT efficacy, with the T2WI sequence-based clinical radiomics achieving the best effect.

Abstract
Purpose Early recurrence of glioblastoma after standard treatment makes patient care challenging. This study aimed to assess preoperative magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) radiomics for predicting early recurrence of glioblastoma. Patients and Methods A total of 122 patients (training cohort: n = 86; validation cohort: n = 36) with pathologically confirmed glioblastoma were included in this retrospective study. Preoperative brain MRI images were analyzed for both radiomics and the Visually Accessible Rembrandt Image (VASARI) features of glioblastoma. Models incorporating MRI radiomics, the VASARI parameters, and clinical variables were developed and presented in a nomogram. Performance was assessed based on calibration, discrimination, and clinical usefulness. Results The nomogram consisting of the radiomic signatures, the VASARI parameters, and blood urea nitrogen (BUN) values showed good discrimination between the patients with early recurrence and those with later recurrence, with an area under the curve of 0.85 (95% CI, 0.77-0.94) in the training cohort and 0.84 [95% CI, 0.71-0.97] in the validation cohort. Decision curve analysis demonstrated favorable clinical application of the nomogram. Conclusion This study showed the potential usefulness of preoperative brain MRI radiomics in predicting the early recurrence of glioblastoma, which should be helpful in personalized management of glioblastoma.

Abstract
Background It is prudent to identify the risk for progressive disease (PD) in patients with non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) who undergo platinum-based chemotherapy. The present study aimed to develop a CT imaging-based sarcopenic nomogram for predicting the risk of PD prior to chemotherapy treatment. Methods We retrospectively enrolled patients with NSCLC who underwent platinum-based chemotherapy. Imaging-based body composition parameters such as skeletal muscle index (SMI) for assessment of sarcopenia were obtained from pre-chemotherapy chest CT images at the level of the eleventh thoracic vertebral body (T11). Sarcopenic nomogram was constructed using multivariate logistic regression and performance of the nomogram was evaluated by discrimination, calibration curve, and decision curve. Results Sixty (14.7%) of the 408 patients in the study cohort developed PD during chemotherapy. The prediction nomogram for developing PD achieved a moderate efficiency with an area under the curve (AUC) of 0.75 (95% CI: 0.69-0.80) for the training cohort, and 0.76 (95%CI: 0.68-0.84) for the validation cohort, as well as a good performance of consistence (bootstrap for training cohort: 0.75 ± 0.02; validation cohort: 0.74 ± 0.06). Favorable clinical application was observed in the decision curve analysis. Conclusion Our CT-based sarcopenic nomogram showed the potential for an individualized prediction of progression for patients with NSCLC receiving platinum-based chemotherapy.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To compare multiparameter MRI-based radiomics for preoperative prediction of extramural venous invasion (EMVI) in rectal cancer using different machine learning algorithms and to develop and validate the best diagnostic model. METHODS We retrospectively analyzed 317 patients with rectal cancer. Of these, 114 were EMVI positive and 203 were EMVI negative. Radiomics features were extracted from T2-weighted imaging, T1-weighted imaging, diffusion-weighted imaging, and enhanced T1-weighted imaging of rectal cancer, followed by the dimension reduction of the features. Logistic regression, support vector machine, Bayes, K-nearest neighbor, and random forests algorithms were trained to obtain the radiomics signatures. The area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC) was used to evaluate the performance of each radiomics signature. The best radiomics signature was selected and combined with clinical and radiological characteristics to construct a joint model for predicting EMVI. Finally, the predictive performance of the joint model was assessed. RESULTS The Bayes-based radiomics signature performed well in both the training set and the test set, with the AUCs of 0.744 and 0.738, sensitivities of 0.754 and 0.728, and specificities of 0.887 and 0.918, respectively. The joint model performed best in both the training set and the test set, with the AUCs of 0.839 and 0.835, sensitivities of 0.633 and 0.714, and specificities of 0.901 and 0.885, respectively. CONCLUSIONS The joint model demonstrated the best diagnostic performance for the preoperative prediction of EMVI in patients with rectal cancer. Hence, it can be used as a key tool for clinical individualized EMVI prediction. KEY POINTS • Radiomics features from magnetic resonance imaging can be used to predict extramural venous invasion (EMVI) in rectal cancer. • Machine learning can improve the accuracy of predicting EMVI in rectal cancer. • Radiomics can serve as a noninvasive biomarker to monitor the status of EMVI.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The purpose was to investigate the value of texture analysis in predicting the World Health Organization (WHO)/International Society of Urological Pathology (ISUP) grading of localized clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC) based on unenhanced CT (UECT). MATERIALS AND METHODS Pathologically confirmed subjects (n = 104) with localized ccRCC who received UECT scanning were collected retrospectively for this study. All cases were classified into low grade (n = 53) and high grade (n = 51) according to the WHO/ISUP grading and were randomly divided into training set and test set as a ratio of 7:3. Using 3D-ROI segmentation on UECT images and extracted ninety-three texture features (first-order, gray-level co-occurrence matrix [GLCM], gray-level run length matrix [GLRLM], gray-level size zone matrix [GLSZM], neighboring gray tone difference matrix [NGTDM] and gray-level dependence matrix [GLDM] features). Univariate analysis and the least absolute shrinkage selection operator (LASSO) regression were used for feature dimension reduction, and logistic regression classifier was used to develop the prediction model. Using receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve, bar chart and calibration curve to evaluate the performance of the prediction model. RESULTS Dimension reduction screened out eight optimal texture features (maximum, median, dependence variance [DV], long run emphasis [LRE], run entropy [RE], gray-level non-uniformity [GLN], gray-level variance [GLV] and large area low gray-level emphasis [LALGLE]), and then the prediction model was developed according to the linear combination of these features. The accuracy, sensitivity, specificity, and AUC of the model in training set were 86.1%, 91.4%, 81.1%, and 0.937, respectively. The accuracy, sensitivity, specificity, and AUC of the model in test set were 81.2%, 81.2%, 81.2%, and 0.844, respectively. The calibration curves showed good calibration both in training set and test set (P > 0.05). CONCLUSION This study has demonstrated that the radiomics model based on UECT texture analysis could accurately evaluate the WHO/ISUP grading of localized ccRCC.

Abstract
Objective Radiomics and morphological features were associated with aneurysms rupture. However, the multicentral study of their predictive power for specific-located aneurysms rupture is rare. We aimed to determine robust radiomics features related to middle cerebral artery (MCA) aneurysms rupture and evaluate the additional value of combining morphological and radiomics features in the classification of ruptured MCA aneurysms. Methods A total of 632 patients with 668 MCA aneurysms (423 ruptured aneurysms) from five hospitals were included. Radiomics and morphological features of aneurysms were extracted on computed tomography angiography images. The model was developed using a training dataset (407 patients) and validated with the internal (152 patients) and external validation (73 patients) datasets. The support vector machine method was applied for model construction. Optimal radiomics, morphological, and clinical features were used to develop the radiomics model (R-model), morphological model (M-model), radiomics-morphological model (RM-model), clinical-morphological model (CM-model), and clinical-radiomics-morphological model (CRM-model), respectively. A comprehensive nomogram integrating clinical, morphological, and radiomics predictors was generated. Results We found seven radiomics features and four morphological predictors of MCA aneurysms rupture. The R-model obtained an area under the receiver operating curve (AUC) of 0.822 (95% CI, 0.776, 0.867), 0.817 (95% CI, 0.744, 0.890), and 0.691 (95% CI, 0.567, 0.816) in the training, temporal validation, and external validation datasets, respectively. The RM-model showed an AUC of 0.848 (95% CI, 0.810, 0.885), 0.865 (95% CI, 0.807, 0.924), and 0.721 (95% CI, 0.601, 0.841) in the three datasets. The CRM-model obtained an AUC of 0.856 (95% CI, 0.820, 0.892), 0.882 (95% CI, 0.828, 0.936), and 0.738 (95% CI, 0.618, 0.857) in the three datasets. The CRM-model and RM-model outperformed the CM-model and M-model in the internal datasets (p < 0.05), respectively. But these differences were not statistically significant in the external dataset. Decision curve analysis indicated that the CRM-model obtained the highest net benefit for most of the threshold probabilities. Conclusion Robust radiomics features were determined related to MCA aneurysm rupture. The RM-model exhibited good ability in classifying ruptured MCA aneurysms. Integrating radiomics features into conventional models might provide additional value in ruptured MCA aneurysms classification.

Abstract
Objectives To develop and validate a radiomic feature-based nomogram for preoperative discriminating the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) activating mutation from wild-type EGFR in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients. Material A group of 301 NSCLC patients were retrospectively reviewed. The EGFR mutation status was determined by ARMS PCR analysis. All patients underwent nonenhanced CT before surgery. Radiomic features were extracted (GE healthcare). The maximum relevance minimum redundancy (mRMR) and LASSO, were used to select features. We incorporated the independent clinical features into the radiomic feature model and formed a joint model (i.e., the radiomic feature-based nomogram). The performance of the joint model was compared with that of the other two models. Results In total, 396 radiomic features were extracted. A radiomic signature model comprising 9 selected features was established for discriminating patients with EGFR-activating mutations from wild-type EGFR. The radiomic score (Radscore) in the two groups was significantly different between patients with wild-type EGFR and EGFR-activating mutations (training cohort: P<0.0001; validation cohort: P=0.0061). Five clinical features were retained and contributed as the clinical feature model. Compared to the radiomic feature model alone, the nomogram incorporating the clinical features and Radscore exhibited improved sensitivity and discrimination for predicting EGFR-activating mutations (sensitivity: training cohort: 0.84, validation cohort: 0.76; AUC: training cohort: 0.81, validation cohort: 0.75). Decision curve analysis demonstrated that the nomogram was clinically useful and surpassed traditional clinical and radiomic features. Conclusions The joint model showed favorable performance in the individualized, noninvasive prediction of EGFR-activating mutations in NSCLC patients.

Abstract
Background To explore the risk factors for severe bleeding complications after percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PCNL) according to the modified Clavien scoring system. Methods We retrospectively analysed 2981 patients who received percutaneous nephrolithotomies from January 2014 to December 2020. Study inclusion criteria were PCNL and postoperative mild or severe renal haemorrhage in accordance with the modified Clavien scoring system. Mild bleeding complications included Clavien 2, while severe bleeding complications were greater than Clavien 3a. It has a good prognosis and is more likely to be underestimated and ignored in retrospective studies in bleeding complications classified by Clavien 1, so no analysis about these was conducted in this study. Clinical features, medical comorbidities and perioperative characteristics were analysed. Chi-square, independent t tests, Pearson’s correlation, Fisher exact tests, Mann–Whitney and multivariate logistic regression were used as appropriate. Results Of the 2981 patients 70 (2.3%), met study inclusion criteria, consisting of 51 men and 19 women, 48 patients had severe bleeding complications. The remaining 22 patients had mild bleeding. Patients with postoperative severe bleeding complications were more likely to have no or slight degree of hydronephrosis and have no staghorn calculi on univariate analysis (p < 0.05). Staghorn calculi (OR, 95% CI, p value 0.218, 0.068–0.700, 0.010) and hydronephrosis (OR, 95% CI, p value 0.271, 0.083–0.887, 0.031) were independent predictors for severe bleeding via multivariate logistic regression analysis. Other factors, such as history of PCNL, multiple kidney stones, site of puncture calyx and mean corrected intraoperative haemoglobin drop were not related to postoperative severe bleedings. Conclusions The absence of staghorn calculi and a no or mild hydronephrosis were related to an increased risk of post-percutaneous nephrolithotomy severe bleeding complications.

PURPOSE To construct MRI radiomics nomograms that can predict short-term response after TACE in HCC patients with diameter less than 5 cm. METHODS MRI images and clinical data of 153 cases with tumor diameter less than 5 cm before TACE from 3 hospitals were collected retrospectively and divided into 1 internal training set and 1 external validation set. The T2-weighted imaging (T2WI) and dynamic contrast-enhanced MRI arterial phase (DCE-MR AP) images were studied. Multivariable logistic regression was used to construct Radiomics models, Clinics models, and Nomograms based on T2WI and DCE-MR AP, respectively. The receiver characteristic curve (ROC) was used to evaluate the predictive performance of each model. RESULTS In this study, 113 eligible cases in Hospital 1 were collected as the training set, and 40 eligible cases in other hospitals were used as the verification set. 11 T2WI features and 11 DCE-MRI AP features with the most predictive value were finally screened. 3 models based on T2WI and 3 models based on DCE-MRI AP were established, respectively. The area under curve (AUC) value of Nomogram based on T2WI of training set and validation set was 0.83 and 0.81, respectively. The AUC value of the models based on T2WI and models based on AP was almost equal, and Nomograms were the most effective models among all three types of models. CONCLUSION MRI-based Nomogram has greater predictive efficacy to predict the response after TACE than Radiomics and Clinics models alone, and the efficacy of T2WI-based models and DCE-MRI AP-based models was almost equal.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Stratification of microsatellite instability (MSI) status in patients with colorectal cancer (CRC) improves clinical decision-making for cancer treatment. The present study aimed to develop a radiomics nomogram to predict the pre-treatment MSI status in patients with CRC. METHODS A total of 762 patients with CRC confirmed by surgical pathology and MSI status determined with polymerase chain reaction (PCR) method were retrospectively recruited between January 2013 and May 2019. Radiomics features were extracted from routine pre-treatment abdominal pelvic computed tomography (CT) scans acquired as part of the patients' clinical care. A radiomics nomogram was constructed using multivariate logistic regression. The performance of the nomogram was evaluated using discrimination, calibration, and decision curves. RESULTS The radiomics nomogram incorporating radiomics signatures, tumor location, patient age, high-density lipoprotein expression, and platelet counts showed good discrimination between patients with non-MSI-H and MSI-H, with an area under the curve (AUC) of 0.74 [95% CI, 0.68-0.80] in the training cohort and 0.77 [95% CI, 0.68-0.85] in the validation cohort. Favorable clinical application was observed using decision curve analysis. The addition of pathological characteristics to the nomogram failed to show incremental prognostic value. CONCLUSIONS We developed a radiomics nomogram incorporating radiomics signatures and clinical indicators, which could potentially be used to facilitate the individualized prediction of MSI status in patients with CRC. KEY POINTS • There is an unmet need to non-invasively determine MSI status prior to treatment. However, the traditional radiological evaluation of CT is limited for evaluating MSI status. • Our non-invasive CT imaging-based radiomics method could efficiently distinguish patients with high MSI disease from those with low MSI disease. • Our radiomics approach demonstrated promising diagnostic efficiency for MSI status, similar to the commonly used IHC method.

Abstract
Purpose To investigate whether preoperative histogram parameters of dynamic contrast‐enhanced MRI (DCE‐MRI) can assess the expression of Ki‐67 in prostate cancer (PCa). Materials and methods A consecutive series of 76 patients with pathology‐proven PCa who underwent routine DCE‐MRI scans were retrospectively recruited. Quantitative parameters including the volume transfer constant (Ktrans), rate contrast (Kep), extracellular‐extravascular volume fraction (Ve), and plasma volume (Vp) by outlining the three‐dimensional volume of interest (VOI) of all lesions were processed. Then, the histogram analyses of these quantitative parameters were performed. The Spearman rank correlation analysis was used to evaluate the correlation of these parameters and Ki‐67 expression of PCa. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis was adopted to evaluate the efficacy of these quantitative histogram parameters in identifying high Ki‐67 expression from low Ki‐67 expression of PCa. Results Eighty‐eight PCa lesions were enrolled in this study, including 31 lesions with high Ki‐67 expression and 57 lesions with low Ki‐67 expression. The median, mean, 75th percentile, and 90th percentile derived from Ktrans and Kep had a moderately positive correlation with Ki‐67 expression (r = 0.361–0.450, p < 0.05), in which both the median and mean of Ktrans had the highest positive correlation (r = 0.450, p < 0.05). The diagnostic efficacy of the Ktrans median, mean, 75th percentile, and 90th percentile, along with the Kep‐based median and mean was assessed by the ROC curve. The area under the curve (AUC) of the mean for Ktrans was the highest (0.826). When the cut‐off of the mean for Ktrans was ≥0.47/min, its Youden index, sensitivity, and specificity were 0.625, 0.871, and 0.754, respectively. The AUC of the median of Kep was the lowest (0.772). Conclusion The histogram of DCE‐MRI quantitative parameters is correlated with Ki‐67 expression, which has the potential to noninvasively assess the expression of Ki‐67 with patients of PCa.

Abstract
PURPOSE Lymphovascular invasion (LVI) and perineural invasion (PNI) are independent prognostic factors in patients with colorectal cancer (CRC). In this study, we aimed to develop and validate a preoperative predictive model based on high-throughput radiomic features and clinical factors for accurate prediction of LVI/PNI in these patients. METHODS Two hundred and sixty-three patients who underwent colorectal resection for histologically confirmed CRC between 1 February 2011 and 30 June 2020 were retrospectively enrolled. Between 1 February 2011 and 30 September 2018, 213 patients were randomly divided into a training cohort (n = 149) and a validation cohort (n = 64) by a ratio of 7:3. We used a 10000-iteration bootstrap analysis to estimate the prediction error and confidence interval for two cohorts. The independent test cohort consisted of 50 patients between 1 October 2018 and 30 June 2020. Regions of interest (ROIs) were manually delineated in high-resolution T2-weighted and diffusion-weighted images using ITK-SNAP software on each CRC tumor slice. In total, 3356 radiomic features were extracted from each ROI. Next, we used the maximum relevance minimum redundancy and least absolute shrinkage and selection operator algorithms to select the strongest of these features to establish a clinical-radiomics model for predicting LVI/PNI. Receiver-operating characteristic and calibration curves were then plotted to evaluate the predictive performance of the model in the training, validation, and independent test cohorts. RESULTS A multiparametric clinical-radiomics model combining MRI-reported extramural vascular invasion (EMVI) status and a Radiomics score for the LVI/PNI estimation was established. This model had significant predictive power in the training cohort (area under the curve [AUC] 0.91; 95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.85-0.97), validation cohort (AUC: 0.88; 95% CI: 0.79-89), and independent test cohorts (AUC 0.83, 95% CI 0.72-0.95). The model performed well in the independent test cohort with sensitivity of 0.818, specificity of 0.714, and accuracy of 0.760. Calibration curve and decision curve analysis demonstrated clinical benefits. CONCLUSION Multiparametric clinical-radiomics models can accurately predict LVI/PNI in patients with CRC. Our model has predictive ability that should improve preoperative diagnostic performance and allow more individualized treatment decisions.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To evaluate the ability of CT radiomic features extracted from peritumoral parenchyma of 2 mm and 5 mm distinguishing invasive adenocarcinoma (IAC) from adenocarcinoma in situ (AIS)/minimally invasive adenocarcinoma (MIA). METHODS For this retrospective study, 121 lung adenocarcinomas appearing as ground-glass nodules on thin-section CT were evaluated. Quantitative radiomic features were extracted from the peritumoral parenchymal region of 2 mm and 5 mm on CT imaging, and the radiomic models of External2 and External5 were constructed. The ROC curves were used to evaluate the performance of different models. Differences between the AUCs were evaluated using DeLong's method. RESULTS The radiomic scores of IAC were statistically higher than those of MIA/AIS in both the External2 and External5 models. The AUCs of the External2 and External5 models were 0.882, 0.778 in the training cohort and 0.888, 0.804 in the validation cohort, respectively. The AUC of the External2 model was not statistically different from the External5 model both in the training cohort (p = 0.116) and validation cohort (p = 0.423). CONCLUSIONS The radiomic features extracted from the peritumoral region of 2 mm and 5 mm at thin-section CT showed good predictive values to differentiate the IAC from AIS/MIA. The radiomic features from the peritumoral region of 5 mm provide no additional benefit in distinguishing IAC from MIA/AIS than that of the 2 mm region. KEY POINTS • The radiomic models from various peritumoral lung parenchyma were developed and validated to predict invasiveness of adenocarcinoma. • The peritumoral parenchyma of lung adenocarcinoma may contain useful information. • Radiomics from peritumoral lung parenchyma of 5 mm provides no added efficiency of the prediction for invasiveness of lung adenocarcinoma.

Abstract
Background Esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) is an aggressive type of cancer, associated with poor prognosis. The development of an accurate and non-invasive method to evaluate the pathologic response of patients with ESCC to chemoradiotherapy remains a critical issue. Therefore, the aim of this study was to assess the importance of vascular permeability and texture parameters in predicting the response to neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy (NACRT) in patients with ESCC. Methods This prospective analysis included patients with T1–T2 stage of ESCC, without either lymphatic or metastasis, and distant metastasis. All patients underwent surgery having received two rounds of NACRT. All patients underwent dynamic contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (DCE-MRI) twice, i.e., before the first NACRT and after the second NACRT. Patients were assessed for treatment response at 30 days after the second NACRT. Patients were divided into the complete response (CR) and partial response (PR) groups based on their responses to NACRT. Vascular permeability and texture parameters were extracted from the DCE-MRI scans. After assessing the diagnostic performance of individual parameters, a combined model with vascular permeability and texture parameters was generated to predict the response to NACRT. Results In this study, the CR and PR groups included 16 patients each. The volume transfer constant (Ktrans), extracellular extravascular volume fraction (ve), and entropy values, as well as changes to each of these parameters, extracted from the second DCE-MRI scans, showed significant differences between the CR and PR groups. The area under the curve (AUC) of Ktrans, ve, and entropy values showed good diagnostic ability (0.813, 0.789, and 0.707, respectively). A logistic regression model combining Ktrans, ve, and entropy had significant diagnostic ability (AUC=0.977). Conclusions The use of a combined model with vascular permeability and texture parameters can improve post-NACRT prognostication in patients with ESCC.

Abstract
This paper develops a two-dimensional (2D) radiomics approach with computed tomography (CT) to differentiate between benign and malignant ovarian neoplasms. A retrospective study was conducted from July 2017 to June 2019 for 134 patients with surgically-verified benign or malignant ovarian tumors. The patients were randomly divided in a ratio of 7:3 into two sets, namely a training set (of n = 95) and a test set (of n = 39). The ITK-SNAP software was used to delineate the regions of interest (ROI) associated with lesions of the largest diameters in plain CT image slices. Texture features were extracted by the Analysis Kit (AK) software. The training set was used to select the best features according to the maximum-relevance minimum-redundancy (mRMR) criterion, in addition to the algorithm of the least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO). Then, we employed a radiomics model for classification via multivariate logistic regression. Finally, we evaluated the overall performance of our method using the receiver operating characteristics (ROC), the DeLong test. and tested in an external validation test sample of patients of ovarian neoplasm. We created a radiomics prediction model from 14 selected features. The radiomic signature was found to be highly discriminative according to the area under the ROC curve (AUC) for both the training set (AUC = 0.88), and the test set (AUC = 0.87). The radiomics nomogram also demonstrated good calibration and differentiation for both the training (AUC = 0.95) and test (AUC = 0.96) samples. External validation tests gave a good performance in radiomic signature (AUC = 0.83) and radiomics nomogram (AUC = 0.95). The decision curve explicitly indicated the clinical usefulness of our nomogram method in the sense that it can influence major clinical events such as the ordering or abortion of other tests, treatments or invasive procedures. Our radiomics model based on plain CT images has a high diagnostic efficiency, which is helpful for the identification and prediction of benign and malignant ovarian neoplasms.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To develop a non-contrast CT-based radiomic signature to effectively screen for thoracic aortic dissections (ADs). METHODS We retrospectively enrolled 378 patients who underwent non-contrast chest CT scans along with CT angiography or MRI from 4 medical centers. The training and validation sets were from 3 centers, while the external test set was from a 4th center. Radiomic features were extracted from non-contrast CT images. The radiomic signature was created on the basis of selected features by a logistic regression algorithm. The area under the curve (AUC) of the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve, accuracy, sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value (PPV), and negative predictive value (NPV) were conducted to assess the predictive ability of radiomic signature. RESULTS The radiomic signature demonstrated AUCs of 0.91 (95% confidence interval [CI], 0.86-0.95) in the training set, 0.92 (95% CI, 0.86-0.98) in the validation set, and 0.90 (95% CI, 0.82-0.98) in the external test set. The predicted diagnosis was in good agreement with the probability of thoracic AD. In the external test group, the diagnostic accuracy, sensitivity, specificity, PPV, and NPV were 90.5%, 85.7%, 91.7%, 70.6%, and 96.5%, respectively. CONCLUSIONS A radiomic signature based on non-contrast CT images can effectively predict thoracic ADs. This method may serve as a potential screening tool for thoracic ADs. KEY POINTS • The non-contrast CT-based radiomic signature can effectively predict the thoracic aortic dissections. • This radiomic signature shows better predictive performance compared to the current clinical model. • This prediction method may be a potential tool for screening thoracic aortic dissections.

Abstract
Objective This study aimed to develop and validate an integrated prediction model based on clinicoradiological data and computed tomography (CT)-radiomics for differentiating between benign and malignant parotid gland (PG) tumors via multicentre cohorts. Materials and Methods A cohort of 87 PG tumor patients from hospital #1 who were diagnosed between January 2017 and January 2020 were used for prediction model training. A total of 378 radiomic features were extracted from a single tumor region of interest (ROI) of each patient on each phase of CT images. Imaging features were extracted from plain CT and contrast-enhanced CT (CECT) images. After dimensionality reduction, a radiomics signature was constructed. A combination model was constructed by incorporating the rad-score and CT radiological features. An independent group of 38 patients from hospital #2 was used to validate the prediction models. The model performances were evaluated by receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis, and decision curve analysis (DCA) was used to evaluate the clinical effectiveness of the models. The radiomics signature model was constructed and the rad-score was calculated based on selected imaging features from plain CT and CECT images. Results Analysis of variance and multivariable logistic regression analysis showed that location, lymph node metastases, and rad-score were independent predictors of tumor malignant status. The ROC curves showed that the accuracy of the support vector machine (SVM)-based prediction model, radiomics signature, location and lymph node status in the training set was 0.854, 0.772, 0.679, and 0.632, respectively; specificity was 0.869, 0.878, 0.734, and 0.773; and sensitivity was 0.731, 0.808, 0.723, and 0.742. In the test set, the accuracy was 0.835, 0.771, 0.653, and 0.608, respectively; the specificity was 0.741, 0.889, 0.852, and 0.812; and the sensitivity was 0.818, 0.790, 0.731, and 0.716. Conclusions The combination model based on the radiomics signature and CT radiological features is capable of evaluating the malignancy of PG tumors and can help clinicians guide clinical tumor management.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To identify glioma radiomic features associated with proliferation-related Ki-67 antigen and cellular tumour antigen p53 levels, common immunohistochemical markers for differentiating benign from malignant tumours, and to generate radiomic prediction models. METHODS Patients with glioma, who were scanned before therapy using standard brain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) protocols on T1 and T2 weighted imaging, were included. For each patient, regions-of-interest (ROI) were drawn based on tumour and peritumoral areas (5/10/15/20 mm), and features were identified using feature calculations, and used to create and assess logistic regression models for Ki-67 and p53 levels. RESULTS A total of 92 patients were included. The best area under the curve (AUC) for the Ki-67 model was 0.773 for T2 weighted imaging in solid glioma (sensitivity, 0.818; specificity, 0.833), followed by a less reliable AUC of 0.773 (sensitivity, 0.727; specificity 0.667) in 20-mm peritumoral areas. The highest AUC for the p53 model was 0.709 (sensitivity, 1; specificity, 0.4) for T2 weighted imaging in 10-mm peritumoral areas. CONCLUSION Using T2-weighted imaging, the prediction model for Ki-67 level in solid glioma tissue was better than the p53 model. The 20-mm and 10-mm peritumoral areas in the Ki-67 and p53 model, respectively, showed predictive effects, suggesting value in further research into areas without conventional MRI features.

Abstract
Objectives To systematically evaluate and compare the predictive capability for microvascular invasion (MVI) in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) patients based on radiomics from multi-parametric MRI (mp-MRI) including six sequences when used individually or combined, and to establish and validate the optimal combined model. Methods A total of 195 patients confirmed HCC were divided into training (n = 136) and validation (n = 59) datasets. All volumes of interest of tumors were respectively segmented on T2-weighted imaging, diffusion-weighted imaging, apparent diffusion coefficient, artery phase, portal venous phase, and delay phase sequences, from which quantitative radiomics features were extracted and analyzed individually or combined. Multivariate logistic regression analyses were undertaken to construct clinical model, respective single-sequence radiomics models, fusion radiomics models based on different sequences and combined model. The accuracy, sensitivity, specificity and area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC) were calculated to evaluate the performance of different models. Results Among nine radiomics models, the model from all sequences performed best with AUCs 0.889 and 0.822 in the training and validation datasets, respectively. The combined model incorporating radiomics from all sequences and effective clinical features achieved satisfactory preoperative prediction of MVI with AUCs 0.901 and 0.840, respectively, and could identify the higher risk population of MVI (P < 0.001). The Delong test manifested significant differences with P < 0.001 in the training dataset and P = 0.005 in the validation dataset between the combined model and clinical model. Conclusions The combined model can preoperatively and noninvasively predict MVI in HCC patients and may act as a usefully clinical tool to guide subsequent individualized treatment.

Abstract
PURPOSE To investigate whether pretreatment magnetic resonance (MR)-based radiomics nomogram can individualize prediction of perineural invasion (PNI) status in rectal cancer (RC). MATERIAL AND METHODS A total of 122 RC patients with pathologically confirmed were classified as training cohort (n = 87) and test cohort (n = 35). 180 radiomics features were extracted from all lesions based on oblique axial T2WI TSE images. The dimensionality reduction and feature selection in training cohort were realized by the maximum relevance minimum redundancy (mRMR) algorithm and the least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) regression model. A predictive model combining radiomics features and clinical risk factors (pathological N stage, pathological LVI status) was established by multivariate logistic regression analysis. The performance of the model was assessed based on its receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve, nomogram, and calibration. RESULTS The developed radiomics nomogram that integrated the radiomics signature and clinical risk factors could provide discrimination in the training and test cohorts. The accuracy and the area under the curve (AUC) for assessing PNI status were 0.82, 0.86, respectively, in the training cohort, while they were 0.71 and 0.85 in the test cohort. The goodness-of-fit of the nomogram was evaluated using the Hosmer-Lemeshow test (p = 0.52 in training cohort and p = 0.24 in test cohort). Decision curve analysis (DCA) showed that the radiomics nomogram was clinically useful. CONCLUSION The developed radiomics nomogram might be helpful in the individualized assessment PNI status in patients with RC. This stratification of RC patients according to their PNI status may provide the basis for individualized adjuvant therapy, especially for stage II patients.

Abstract
This study aimed to construct convention-radiomics CT nomogram containing conventional CT characteristics and radiomics signature for distinguishing fat-poor angiomyolipoma (fp-AML) from clear-cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC). 29 fp-AML and 110 ccRCC patients were enrolled and underwent CT examinations in this study. The radiomics-only logistic model was constructed with selected radiomics features by the analysis of variance (ANOVA)/Mann–Whitney (MW), correlation analysis, and Least Absolute Shrinkage and Selection Operator (LASSO), and the radiomics score (rad-score) was computed. The convention-radiomics logistic model based on independent conventional CT risk factors and rad-score was constructed for differentiating. Then the relevant nomogram was developed. Receiver operation characteristic (ROC) curves were calculated to quantify the accuracy for distinguishing. The rad-score of ccRCC was smaller than that of fp-AML. The convention-radioimics logistic model was constructed containing variables of enhancement pattern, VUP, and rad-score. To the entire cohort, the area under the curve (AUC) of convention-radiomics model (0.968 [95% CI 0.923–0.990]) was higher than that of radiomics-only model (0.958 [95% CI 0.910–0.985]). Our study indicated that convention-radiomics CT nomogram including conventional CT risk factors and radiomics signature exhibited better performance in distinguishing fp-AML from ccRCC.

Abstract
Objective This study aimed to evaluate the role of tumor and mini-peritumor in the context of CT-based radiomics analysis to differentiate fat-poor angiomyolipoma (fp-AML) from clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC). Methods A total of 58 fp-AMLs and 172 ccRCCs were enrolled. The volume of interest (VOI) was manually delineated in the standardized CT images and radiomics features were automatically calculated with software. After methods of feature selection, the CT-based logistic models including tumoral model (Ra-tumor), mini-peritumoral model (Ra-peritumor), perirenal model (Ra-Pr), perifat model (Ra-Pf), and tumoral+perirenal model (Ra-tumor+Pr) were constructed. The area under curves (AUCs) were calculated by DeLong test to evaluate the efficiency of logistic models. Results The AUCs of Ra-peritumor of nephrographic phase (NP) were slightly higher than those of corticomedullary phase (CMP). Furthermore, the Ra-Pr showed significant higher efficiency than the Ra-Pf, and relative more optimal radiomics features were selected in the Ra-Pr than Ra-Pf. The Ra-tumor+Pr combined tumoral and perirenal radiomics analysis was of most significant in distinction compared with Ra-tumor and Ra-peritumor. Conclusion The validity of NP to differentiate fp-AML from ccRCC was slightly higher than that of CMP. To the NP analysis, the Ra-Pr was superior to the Ra-Pf in distinction, and the lesions invaded to the perirenal tissue more severely than to the perifat tissue. It is important to the individual therapeutic surgeries according to the different lesion location. The pooled tumoral and perirenal radiomics analysis was the most promising approach in distinguishing fp-AML and ccRCC.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Glioblastomas (GBMs) represent both the most common and the most highly malignant primary brain tumors. The subjective visual imaging features from MRI make it challenging to predict the overall survival (OS) of GBM. Radiomics can quantify image features objectively as an emerging technique. A pragmatic and objective method in the clinic to assess OS is strongly in need. PURPOSE To construct a radiomics nomogram to stratify GBM patients into long- vs. short-term survival. STUDY TYPE Retrospective. POPULATION One-hundred and fifty-eight GBM patients from Brain Tumor Segmentation Challenge 2018 (BRATS2018) were for model construction and 32 GBM patients from the local hospital for external validation. FIELD STRENGTH/SEQUENCE 1.5 T and 3.0 T MRI Scanners, T1 WI, T2 WI, T2 FLAIR, and contrast-enhanced T1 WI sequences ASSESSMENT: All patients were divided into long-term or short-term based on a survival of greater or fewer than 12 months. All BRATS2018 subjects were divided into training and test sets, and images were assessed for ependymal and pia mater involvement (EPI) and multifocality by three experienced neuroradiologists. All tumor tissues from multiparametric MRI were fully automatically segmented into three subregions to calculate the radiomic features. Based on the training set, the most powerful radiomic features were selected to constitute radiomic signature. STATISTICAL TESTS Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve, sensitivity, specificity, and the Hosmer-Lemeshow test. RESULTS The nomogram had a survival prediction accuracy of 0.878 and 0.875, a specificity of 0.875 and 0.583, and a sensitivity of 0.704 and 0.833, respectively, in the training and test set. The ROC curve showed the accuracy of the nomogram, radiomic signature, age, and EPI for external validation set were 0.858, 0.826, 0.664, and 0.66 in the validate set, respectively. DATA CONCLUSION Radiomics nomogram integrated with radiomic signature, EPI, and age was found to be robust for the stratification of GBM patients into long- vs. short-term survival. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE 3 TECHNICAL EFFICACY STAGE: 2.

Abstract
Purpose: To develop and validate an integrative nomogram based on white matter (WM) radiomics biomarkers and nonmotor symptoms for the identification of early-stage Parkinson's disease (PD). Methods: The brain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and clinical characteristics of 336 subjects, including 168 patients with PD, were collected from the Parkinson's Progress Markers Initiative (PPMI) database. All subjects were randomly divided into training and test sets. According to the baseline MRI scans of patients in the training set, the WM was segmented to extract the radiomic features of each patient and develop radiomics biomarkers, which were then combined with nonmotor symptoms to build an integrative nomogram using machine learning. Finally, the diagnostic accuracy and reliability of the nomogram were evaluated using a receiver operating characteristic curve and test data, respectively. In addition, we investigated 58 patients with atypical PD who had imaging scans without evidence of dopaminergic deficit (SWEDD) to verify whether the nomogram was able to distinguish patients with typical PD from patients with SWEDD. A decision curve analysis was also performed to validate the clinical practicality of the nomogram. Results: The area under the curve values of the integrative nomogram for the training, testing and verification sets were 0.937, 0.922, and 0.836, respectively; the specificity values were 83.8, 88.2, and 91.38%, respectively; and the sensitivity values were 84.6, 82.4, and 70.69%, respectively. A significant difference in the number of patients with PD was observed between the high-risk group and the low-risk group based on the nomogram (P < 0.05). Conclusion: This integrative nomogram is a new potential method to identify patients with early-stage PD.

Abstract
Background Anterior mediastinal cysts (AMC) are often misdiagnosed as thymomas and undergo surgical resection, which caused unnecessary treatment and medical resource waste. The purpose of this study is to explore potential possibility of computed tomography (CT)-based radiomics for the diagnosis of AMC and type B1 and B2 thymomas. Methods A group of 188 patients with pathologically confirmed AMC (106 cases misdiagnosed as thymomas in CT) and thymomas (82 cases) and underwent routine chest CT from January 2010 to December 2018 were retrospectively analyzed. The lesions were manually delineated using ITK-SNAP software, and radiomics features were performed using the artificial intelligence kit (AK) software. A total of 180 tumour texture features were extracted from enhanced CT and unenhanced CT, respectively. The general test, correlation analysis, and LASSO were used to features selection and then the radiomics signature (radscore) was obtained. The combined model including radscore and independent clinical factors was developed. The model performances were evaluated on discrimination, calibration curve. Results Two radscore models were constructed from the unenhanced and enhanced phases based on the selected four and three features, respectively. The AUC, sensitivity, and specificity of the enhanced radscore model were 0.928, 89.3%, and 83.8% in the training dataset and 0.899, 84.6%, and 87.5% in the test dataset (higher than the unenhanced radscore model). The combined model of enhanced CT including radiomics features and independent clinical factors yielded an AUC, sensitivity and specificity of 0.941, 82.1%, and 94.6% in the training dataset and 0.938, 92.3%, and 87.5% in the test dataset (higher than the unenhanced combined model and enhanced radscore model). Conclusions The study suggested the possibility that the combined model in enhanced CT provided a potential tool to facilitate the differential diagnosis of AMC and type B1 and B2 thymomas.

Abstract
Objective
To assess the prognostic value of B-lines integrated with echocardiography in patients admitted to a Cardiology Department, with and without acute heart failure (AHF).
Background
Lung-ultrasound (LUS) B-lines are sonographic signs of pulmonary congestion and can be used in the differential diagnosis of dyspnea to rule in or rule out AHF. Their prognostic value at admission is less established, as well as the different role in AHF with reduced and preserved ejection fraction (HFrEF and HFpEF), or patients admitted for cardiac conditions but without overt signs and symptoms of AHF.
Methods
A total of 1021 consecutive in-patients (69±12 years) admitted for various cardiac conditions were enrolled. Patients were classified into three groups: 1) acute HFrEF; 2) acute HFpEF; 3) no AHF. All patients underwent on the admission an echocardiogram coupled with LUS, according to standardised protocols.
Results
Patients were followed-up for a median of 14.4 months (interquartile range: 4.6–24.3) for death and HF readmission (composite endpoint). During the follow-up, 126 events occurred. Kaplan-Meier survival analyses showed admission B-lines >30 identified patients with worse outcome at follow-up in the overall population and each of the three groups (Figure). At multivariable analysis (Table), admission B-lines >30, EF <50%, tricuspid regurgitation velocity >2.8 m/s and tricuspid annular plane systolic excursion (TAPSE) <17 mm resulted in independent predictors of the composite endpoint. B-lines >30 had a strong predictive value in HFpEF and non-AHF, but not in HFrEF.
Conclusions
Ultrasound B-lines can detect subclinical pulmonary interstitial edema in patients thought to be free of congestion, and provide useful information not only for the diagnosis but also for the prognosis in different cardiac conditions. Their added prognostic value among standard echocardiographic parameters is stronger in patients with HFpEF compared to HFrEF.

Abstract
Background: The management of ground glass nodules (GGNs) remains a distinctive challenge. This study is aimed at comparing the predictive growth trends of radiomic features against current clinical features for the evaluation of GGNs. Methods: A total of 110 GGNs in 85 patients were included in this retrospective study, in which follow up occurred over a span ≥2 years. A total of 396 radiomic features were manually segmented by radiologists and quantitatively analyzed using an Analysis Kit software. After feature selection, three models were developed to predict the growth of GGNs. The performance of all three models was evaluated by a receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve. The best performing model was also assessed by calibration and clinical utility. Results: After using a stepwise multivariate logistic regression analysis and dimensionality reduction, the diameter and five specific radiomic features were included in the clinical model and the radiomic model. The rad-score [odds ratio (OR) = 5.130; P < 0.01] and diameter (OR = 1.087; P < 0.05) were both considered as predictive indicators for the growth of GGNs. Meanwhile, the area under the ROC curve of the combined model reached 0.801. The high degree of fitting and favorable clinical utility was detected using the calibration curve with the Hosmer-Lemeshow test and the decision curve analysis was utilized for the nomogram. Conclusions: A combined model using the current clinical features alongside the radiomic features can serve as a powerful tool to assist clinicians in guiding the management of GGNs.

Abstract
Objective: Accurate staging is of great importance in treatment selection for patients with nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC). The aims of this study were to construct radiomic models of NPC staging based on positron emission tomography (PET) and magnetic resonance (MR) images and to investigate the correlation between metabolic parameters and radiomic features. Methods: A total of 100 consecutive cases of NPC (70 in training and 30 in the testing cohort) with undifferentiated carcinoma confirmed pathologically were recruited. Metabolic parameters of the local lesions of NPC were measured. A total of 396 radiomic features based on PET and MRI images were calculated [including histogram, Haralick, shape factor, gray level co-occurrence matrix (GLCM), and run length matrix (RLM)] and selected [using maximum relevance and minimum redundancy (mRMR) and least shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO)], respectively. The logistic regression models were established according to these features. Finally, the relationship between the metabolic parameters and radiomic features was analyzed. Results: We selected the nine most relevant radiomic features (six from MR images and three from PET images) from local NPC lesions. In the PET model, the area under the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve (AUC), accuracy, sensitivity, and the specificity of the training group were 0.84, 0.75, 0.90, and 0.69, respectively. In the MR model, those metrics were 0.85, 0.83, 0.75, and 0.86, respectively. Pearson's correlation analysis showed that the metabolic parameters had different degrees of correlation with the selected radiomic features. Conclusion: The PET and MR radiomic models were helpful in the diagnosis of NPC staging. There were correlations between the metabolic parameters and radiomic features of primary NPC based on PET/MR. In the future, PET/MR-based radiomic models, with further improvement and validation, can be a more useful and economical tool for predicting local invasion and distant metastasis of NPC.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To construct and validate a nomogram model that integrated the CT radiomic features and the TNM staging for risk stratification of thymic epithelial tumors (TETs). METHODS A total of 136 patients with pathology-confirmed TETs who underwent CT examination were collected from two institutions. According to the WHO pathological classification criteria, patients were classified into low-risk and high-risk groups. The TNM staging was determined in terms of the 8th edition AJCC/UICC staging criteria. LASSO regression was performed to extract the optimal features correlated to risk stratification among the 704 radiomic features calculated. A nomogram model was constructed by combining the Radscore and the TNM staging. The clinical performance was evaluated by ROC analysis, calibration curve, and decision curve analysis (DCA). The Kaplan-Meier (KM) analysis was employed for survival analysis. RESULTS Five optimal features identified by LASSO regression were employed to calculate the Radscore correlated to risk stratification. The nomogram model showed a better performance in both training cohort (AUC = 0.84, 95%CI 0.75-0.91) and external validation cohort (AUC = 0.79, 95%CI 0.69-0.88). The calibration curve and DCA analysis indicated a better accuracy of the nomogram model for risk stratification than either Radscore or the TNM staging alone. The KM analysis showed a significant difference between the two groups stratified by the nomogram model (p = 0.02). CONCLUSIONS A nomogram model that integrated the radiomic signatures and the TNM staging could serve as a reliable model of risk stratification in predicting the prognosis of patients with TETs. KEY POINTS • The radiomic features could be associated with the TET pathophysiology. • TNM staging and Radscore could independently stratify the risk of TETs. • The nomogram model is more objective and more comprehensive than previous methods.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To investigate potential diagnostic model for predicting benign or malignant status of subcentimeter pulmonary ground-glass nodules (SPGGNs) (≤1 cm) based on CT texture analysis. METHODS A total of 89 SPGGNs from 89 patients were included; 51 patients were diagnosed with adenocarcinoma, and 38 were diagnosed with inflamed or infected benign SPGGNs. Analysis Kit software was used to manually delineate the volume of interest of lesions and extract a total of 396 quantitative texture parameters. The statistical analysis was performed using R software. The SPGGNs were randomly divided into a training set (n = 59) and a validation set (n = 30). All pre-normalized (Z-score) feature values were subjected to dimension reduction using the LASSO algorithm,and the most useful features in the training set were selected. The selected imaging features were then combined into a Rad-score, which was further assessed by ROC curve analysis in the training and validation sets. RESULTS Four characteristic parameters (ClusterShade_AllDirection_offset4_SD, ShortRunEmphasis_angle45_offset1, Maximum3DDiameter, SurfaceVolumeRatio) were further selected by LASSO (p < 0.05). As a cluster of imaging biomarkers, the above four parameters were used to form the Rad-score. The AUC for differentiating between benign and malignant SPGGNs in the training set was 0.792 (95% CI: 0.671, 0.913), and the sensitivity and specificity were 86.10 and 65.20%, respectively. The AUC in the validation set was 72.9% (95% CI: 0.545, 0.913), and the sensitivity and specificity were 86.70 and 60%, respectively. CONCLUSION The present diagnostic model based on the cluster of imaging biomarkers can preferably distinguish benign and malignant SPGGNs (≤1 cm). ADVANCES IN KNOWLEDGE Texture analysis based on CT images provide a new and credible technique for accurate identification of subcentimeter pulmonary ground-glass nodules.

Abstract
Background Radiomics can be used to determine the prognosis of liver cancer, but it might vary among cancer types. This study aimed to explore the clinicopathological features, radiomics, and survival of patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), mass-type cholangiocarcinoma (MCC), and combined hepatocellular-cholangiocarcinoma (CHCC). Methods This was a retrospective cohort study of patients with primary liver cancer operated at the department of hepatobiliary surgery of the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhejiang University from 07/2013 to 11/2015. All patients underwent preoperative liver enhanced MRI scans and diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI). The radiomics characteristics of DWI and the enhanced equilibrium phase (EP) images were extracted. The mRMR (minimum redundancy maximum relevance) was applied to filter the parameters. Results There were 44 patients with MCC, 59 with HCC, and 33 with CHCC. Macrovascular invasion, tumor diameter, positive ferritin preoperatively, positive AFP preoperatively, positive CEA preoperatively, Correlation, Inverse Difference Moment, and Cluster Prominence in model A (DWI and clinicopathological parameters) were independently associated with overall survival (OS) (P<0.05). Lymphadenopathy, gender, positive ferritin preoperatively, positive AFP preoperatively, positive CEA preoperatively, Uniformity, and Cluster Prominence in model B (EP and clinicopathological parameters) were independently associated with OS (P<0.05). Macrovascular invasion, lymphadenopathy, gender, positive ferritin preoperatively, positive CEA preoperatively, Uniformity_EP, GLCMEnergy_DWI, and Cluster Prominence_EP in model C (image texture and clinicopathological parameters) were independently associated with OS (P<0.05). Those factors were used to construct three nomograms to predict OS. Conclusions Clinicopathological and radiomics features are independently associated with the OS of patients with primary liver cancer.

Abstract
Objectives: To develop and validate a predictive model for discriminating clinically significant prostate cancer (csPCa) from clinically insignificant prostate cancer (ciPCa). Methods: This retrospective study was performed with 159 consecutively enrolled pathologically confirmed PCa patients from two medical centers. The dataset was allocated to a training group (n = 54) and an internal validation group (n = 22) from one center along with an external independent validation group (n = 83) from another center. A total of 1,188 radiomic features were extracted from T2WI, diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI), and apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) images derived from DWI for each patient. Multivariable logistic regression analysis was performed to develop the model, incorporating the radiomic signature, ADC value, and independent clinical risk factors. This was presented using a radiomic nomogram. The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was utilized to assess the predictive efficacy of the radiomic nomogram in both the training and validation groups. The decision curve analysis was used to evaluate which model achieved the most net benefit. Results: The radiomic signature, which was made up of 10 selected features, was significantly associated with csPCa (P < 0.001 for both training and internal validation groups). The area under the curve (AUC) values of discriminating csPCa for the radiomics signature were 0.95 (training group), 0.86 (internal validation group), and 0.81 (external validation group). Multivariate logistic analysis identified the radiomic signature and ADC value as independent parameters of predicting csPCa. Then, the combination nomogram incorporating the radiomic signature and ADC value demonstrated a favorable classification capability with the AUC of 0.95 (training group), 0.93 (internal validation group), and 0.84 (external validation group). Appreciable clinical utility of this model was illustrated using the decision curve analysis for the nomogram. Conclusions: The nomogram, incorporating radiomic signature and ADC value, provided an individualized, potential approach for discriminating csPCa from ciPCa.
