Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is known for its accurate soft tissue delineation of tumors and normal tissues. This development has significantly impacted the imaging and treatment of cancers. Radiomics is the process of extracting high-dimensional features from medical images.

Methods: Using retrospective data for ten polymetastatic non-small cell lung cancer patients (5-52 lesions each) with PET/CTs, gross tumor volumes (GTVs) were delineated using PET standardized-uptake-value (SUV) thresholding. A 1 cm uniform expansion of GTVs to account for setup/contour uncertainty and organ motion-generated planning target volumes (PTVs).
