Development and validation of a clinicoradiomic nomogram to assess the HER2 status of patients with invasive ductal carcinoma.

Background: The determination of HER2 expression status contributes significantly to HER2-targeted therapy in breast carcinoma. However, an economical, efficient, and non-invasive assessment of HER2 is lacking. We aimed to develop a clinicoradiomic nomogram based on radiomics scores extracted from multiparametric MRI (mpMRI, including ADC-map, T2W1, DCE-T1WI) and clinical risk factors to assess HER2 status.

Prediction Breast Molecular Typing of Invasive Ductal Carcinoma Based on Dynamic Contrast Enhancement Magnetic Resonance Imaging Radiomics Characteristics: A Feasibility Study.

Objective: To investigate the feasibility of radiomics in predicting molecular subtype of breast invasive ductal carcinoma (IDC) based on dynamic contrast enhancement magnetic resonance imaging (DCE-MRI).

Methods: A total of 303 cases with pathologically confirmed IDC from January 2018 to March 2021 were enrolled in this study, including 223 cases from Fudan University Shanghai Cancer Center (training/test set) and 80 cases from Shaoxing Central Hospital (validation set). All the cases were classified as HR+/Luminal, HER2-enriched, and TNBC according to immunohistochemistry.

MRI-based radiomics analysis for predicting the EGFR mutation based on thoracic spinal metastases in lung adenocarcinoma patients.

Purpose: This study aims to develop and evaluate multi-parametric MRI-based radiomics for preoperative identification of epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) mutation, which is important in treatment planning for patients with thoracic spinal metastases from primary lung adenocarcinoma.

Methods: A total of 110 patients were enrolled between January 2016 and March 2019 as a primary cohort. A time-independent validation cohort was conducted containing 52 patients consecutively enrolled from July 2019 to April 2021.

Multiparametric MRI-Based Radiomics Approaches for Preoperative Prediction of EGFR Mutation Status in Spinal Bone Metastases in Patients with Lung Adenocarcinoma.

Background: Preoperative prediction of epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) mutation status in patients with spinal bone metastases (SBM) from primary lung adenocarcinoma is potentially important for treatment decisions.

Purpose: To develop and validate multiparametric magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)-based radiomics methods for preoperative prediction of EGFR mutation based on MRI of SBM.

Study Type: Retrospective.
