Unlocking the Potential of Radiomics: Ongoing Challenges Are Revolving Around Methodology and Reproducibility

Over a decade in the making, the novel concept of radiomics has been silently brewing, promising to reshape the landscape of personalised and precision medicine. So, why has radiomics not made its clinical debut yet, despite its innovative and logical approach? The answer lies in the intricate world of advanced computation that forms the basis of radiomics, which in essence

The effect of preprocessing filters on predictive performance in radiomics

In radiomics, the main goal is to extract quantitative features from medical data to train a predictive model using machine learning techniques. Contrary to statistics, radiomics is data-driven; thus, there is a certain tendency to use as many features as possible. To achieve this, preprocessing filters are often applied; for example, a Gaussian filter smooths the image and thus removes

Radiomic assessment of oesophageal adenocarcinoma

The use of radiomic models offers a possible way to improve oesophageal adenocarcinoma assessment through quantitative image analysis, but model selection becomes complicated due to the myriad available predictors as well as the uncertainty of their relevance and reproducibility. Therefore, the aim of this study was to review recent research in order to facilitate precedent-based model selection for prospective validation

Radiomics in predicting treatment response in non-small-cell lung cancer: current status, challenges and future perspectives

This literature review summarizes the current status and evaluates the scientific reporting quality of radiomics research in the prediction of treatment response in non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC). The authors performed this literature review through a comprehensive literature search using the PubMed database, screening a total of 178 articles for eligibility. Key points The included studies reported several promising radiomic markers

Combining molecular and imaging metrics in cancer: radiogenomics

In oncology, we are in the era of personalized medicine that enables increasingly precise, often molecular-based approaches (genomics, transcriptomics, proteomics, metabolomics, etc.) to disease treatments and prevention strategies for our patients. Molecular testing remains expensive, invasive, and time-consuming, and thus unavailable for all patients. In addition, invasive tumor sampling only provides a snap-shot of often heterogeneous tumors and is not
