Sarcomas are heterogeneous rare tumors predominantly affecting the musculoskeletal (MSK) system. Due to significant variations in their natural history and variable response to conventional treatments, the discovery of novel diagnostic and prognostic biomarkers to guide therapeutic decision-making is an active and ongoing field of research. As new cellular, molecular, and metabolic biomarkers continue to be discovered, quantitative radiologic imaging is becoming increasingly important in sarcoma management. Radiomics offers the potential for discovering novel imaging diagnostic and predictive biomarkers using standard-of-care medical imaging. In this review, we detail the core concepts of radiomics and the application of radiomics to date in MSK sarcoma research. Also described are specific challenges related to radiomic studies, as well as viewpoints on clinical adoption and future perspectives in the field.

Challenges in clinical translation of cardiac magnetic resonance imaging radiomics in non-ischemic cardiomyopathy: a narrative review.
Cardiovasc Diagn Ther
December 2024
The First Affiliated Hospital, Department of Cardiology, Hengyang Medical School, University of South China, Hengyang, China.
Background And Objective: Radiomics is an emerging technology that facilitates the quantitative analysis of multi-modal cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). This study aims to introduce a standardized workflow for applying radiomics to non-ischemic cardiomyopathies, enabling clinicians to comprehensively understand and implement this technology in clinical practice.
Methods: A computerized literature search (up to August 1, 2024) was conducted using PubMed to identify relevant studies on the roles and workflows of radiomics in non-ischemic cardiomyopathy.
Estimation of TP53 mutations for endometrial cancer based on diffusion-weighted imaging deep learning and radiomics features.
BMC Cancer

Department of Radiology, Henan Provincial People's Hospital & Zhengzhou University People's Hospital, Zhengzhou, Henan, China.
Objectives: To construct a prediction model based on deep learning (DL) and radiomics features of diffusion weighted imaging (DWI), and clinical variables for evaluating TP53 mutations in endometrial cancer (EC).
Methods: DWI and clinical data from 155 EC patients were included in this study, consisting of 80 in the training set, 35 in the test set, and 40 in the external validation set. Radiomics features, convolutional neural network-based DL features, and clinical variables were analyzed.
Quantifying intratumoral heterogeneity within sub-regions to predict high-grade patterns in clinical stage I solid lung adenocarcinoma.
BMC Cancer
January 2025
Department of Radiology, Xiangtan Central Hospital, Xiangtan, 411000, P. R. China.
Background: This study aims to quantify intratumoral heterogeneity (ITH) using preoperative CT image and evaluate its ability to predict pathological high-grade patterns, specifically micropapillary and/or solid components (MP/S), in patients diagnosed with clinical stage I solid lung adenocarcinoma (LADC).
Methods: In this retrospective study, we enrolled 457 patients who were postoperatively diagnosed with clinical stage I solid LADC from two medical centers, assigning them to either a training set (n = 304) or a test set (n = 153). Sub-regions within the tumor were identified using the K-means method.
Overlooked and underpowered: a meta-research addressing sample size in radiomics prediction models for binary outcomes.

Objectives: To investigate how studies determine the sample size when developing radiomics prediction models for binary outcomes, and whether the sample size meets the estimates obtained by using established criteria.
Methods: We identified radiomics studies that were published from 01 January 2023 to 31 December 2023 in seven leading peer-reviewed radiological journals. We reviewed the sample size justification methods, and actual sample size used.
Deep learning-integrated MRI brain tumor analysis: feature extraction, segmentation, and Survival Prediction using Replicator and volumetric networks.

The most prevalent form of malignant tumors that originate in the brain are known as gliomas. In order to diagnose, treat, and identify risk factors, it is crucial to have precise and resilient segmentation of the tumors, along with an estimation of the patients' overall survival rate. Therefore, we have introduced a deep learning approach that employs a combination of MRI scans to accurately segment brain tumors and predict survival in patients with gliomas.
