Objective:
The early differential diagnosis of the postoperative recurrence or pseudoprogression (psPD) of a glioma is of great guiding significance for individualized clinical treatment. This study aimed to evaluate the ability of a multiparametric magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)-based radiomics model to distinguish between the postoperative recurrence and psPD of a glioma early on and in a noninvasive manner.
Methods:
A total of 52 patients with gliomas who attended the Hainan Provincial People's Hospital between 2000 and 2021 and met the inclusion criteria were selected for this study. 1137 and 1137 radiomic features were extracted from T1 enhanced and T2WI/FLAIR sequence images, respectively.After clearing some invalid information and LASSO screening, a total of 9 and 10 characteristic radiological features were extracted and randomly divided into the training set and the test set according to 7:3 ratio. Select-Kbest and minimum Absolute contraction and selection operator (LASSO) were used for feature selection. Support vector machine and logistic regression were used to form a multi-parameter model for training and prediction. The optimal sequence and classifier were selected according to the area under the curve (AUC) and accuracy.
Results:
Radiomic models 1, 2 and 3 based on T1WI, T2FLAIR and T1WI + T2T2FLAIR sequences have better performance in the identification of postoperative recurrence and false progression of T1 glioma. The performance of model 2 is more stable, and the performance of support vector machine classifier is more stable. The multiparameter model based on CE-T1 + T2WI/FLAIR sequence showed the best performance (AUC:0.96, sensitivity: 0.87, specificity: 0.94, accuracy: 0.89,95% CI:0.93-1).
Conclusion:
The use of multiparametric MRI-based radiomics provides a noninvasive, stable, and accurate method for differentiating between the postoperative recurrence and psPD of a glioma, which allows for timely individualized clinical treatment.
