AI Article Synopsis

  • The study aimed to investigate how effective radiomics analysis using multimodal MRI is for assessing advanced fibrosis in hepatitis B patients.
  • The researchers divided 143 patients into training and validation groups, developing a clinical model and a radiomics signature with support vector machine (SVM) for diagnosis.
  • The results showed that a nomogram combining these factors had the highest accuracy in predicting advanced liver fibrosis, indicating that radiomics analysis can significantly improve diagnosis.

Article Abstract

Background: The goal was to explore the value of using radiomics analysis based on multimodal MRI for evaluating the advanced fibrosis in patients with hepatitis B.

Methods: One hundred and forty-three patients with hepatitis B fibrosis were randomly divided into training and validation cohorts in a 2:1 ratio. In the training cohort, a clinical model was established with logistic regression, a radiomics signature based on multimodal MRI was established with support vector machine (SVM), and a nomogram integrated the radiomics signature and clinical factors. The value of three models was assessed by ROC analysis in the training and validation cohorts.

Results: The nomogram demonstrated the largest area under the ROC curve. The nomogram presented good agreement in the prediction probability of advanced liver fibrosis in two cohorts.

Conclusions: Radiomics analysis has good diagnostic value for advanced liver fibrosis and the nomogram can enhance the diagnostic value.
