Radiogenomic classification for MGMT promoter methylation status using multi-omics fused feature space for least invasive diagnosis through mpMRI scans.

Accurate radiogenomic classification of brain tumors is important to improve the standard of diagnosis, prognosis, and treatment planning for patients with glioblastoma. In this study, we propose a novel two-stage MGMT Promoter Methylation Prediction (MGMT-PMP) system that extracts latent features fused with radiomic features predicting the genetic subtype of glioblastoma. A novel fine-tuned deep learning architecture, namely Deep Learning Radiomic Feature Extraction (DLRFE) module, is proposed for latent feature extraction that fuses the quantitative knowledge to the spatial distribution and the size of tumorous structure through radiomic features: (GLCM, HOG, and LBP).
