Objectives:
The objective of this study was to compare the predictive performance of 2D and 3D radiomics features in meningioma grade based on enhanced T1 WI images.
Methods:
There were 170 high grade meningioma and 170 low grade meningioma were selected randomly. The 2D and 3D features were extracted from 2D and 3D ROI of each meningioma. The Spearman correlation analysis and least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) regression were used to select the valuable features. The 2D and 3D predictive models were constructed by naive Bayes (NB), gradient boosting decision tree (GBDT), and support vector machine (SVM). The ROC curve was drawn and AUC was calculated. The 2D and 3D models were compared by Delong test of AUCs and decision curve analysis (DCA) curve.
Results:
There were 1143 features extracted from each ROI. Six and seven features were selected. The AUC of 2D and 3D model in NB, GBDT, and SVM was 0.773 and 0.771, 0.722 and 0.717, 0.733 and 0.743. There was no significant difference in two AUCs (p=0.960, 0.913, 0.830) between 2D and 3D model. The 2D features had a better performance than 3D features in NB models and the 3D features had a better performance than 2D features in GBDT models. The 2D features and 3D features had an equal performance in SVM models.
Conclusions:
The 2D and 3D features had a comparable performance in predicting meningioma grade. Considering the issue of time and labor, 2D features could be selected for radiomics study in meningioma.
Key Points:
There was a comparable performance between 2D and 3D features in meningioma grade prediction. The 2D features was a proper selection in meningioma radiomics study because of its time and labor saving.
