Purpose: The purpose of this study was to identify possible association between noncontrast computed tomography (NCCT)-based radiomics features of perihematomal edema (PHE) and poor functional outcome at 90 days after intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) and to develop a NCCT-based radiomics-clinical nomogram to predict 90-day functional outcomes in patients with ICH.

Materials And Methods: In this multicenter retrospective study, 107 radiomics features were extracted from 1098 NCCT examinations obtained in 1098 patients with ICH. There were 652 men and 446 women with a mean age of 60 ± 12 (SD) years (range: 23-95 years). After harmonized and univariable and multivariable screening, seven of these radiomics features were closely associated with the 90-day functional outcome of patients with ICH. The radiomics score (Rad-score) was calculated based on the seven radiomics features. A clinical-radiomics nomogram was developed and validated in three cohorts. The model performance was evaluated using area under the curve analysis and decision and calibration curves.

Results: Of the 1098 patients with ICH, 395 had a good outcome at 90 days. Hematoma hypodensity sign and intraventricular and subarachnoid hemorrhages were identified as risk factors for poor outcomes (P < 0.001). Age, Glasgow coma scale score, and Rad-score were independently associated with outcome. The clinical-radiomics nomogram showed good predictive performance with AUCs of 0.882 (95% CI: 0.859-0.905), 0.834 (95% CI: 0.776-0.891) and 0.905 (95% CI: 0.839-0.970) in the three cohorts and clinical applicability.

Conclusion: NCCT-based radiomics features from PHE are highly correlated with outcome. When combined with Rad-score, radiomics features from PHE can improve the predictive performance for 90-day poor outcome in patients with ICH.
