Abstract Purpose To propose a new quality scoring tool, METhodological RadiomICs Score (METRICS), to assess and improve research of radiomics studies. Methods We conducted an online modified Delphi study with group international experts. It was performed in three consecutive stages: Stage#1, item preparation; Stage#2, panel discussion among EuSoMII Auditing Group members identify the items be voted; Stage#3, four rounds exercise by panelists determine eligible for METRICS their weights. The...
Overall quality of radiomics research has been reported as low in literature, which constitutes a major challenge to improve. Consistent, transparent, and accurate reporting is critical, can be accomplished with systematic use guidelines. The CheckList for EvaluAtion Radiomics (CLEAR) was previously developed assist authors their radiomic reviewers evaluation. To take full advantage CLEAR, further explanation elaboration each item, well literature examples, may useful. main goal this work,...
In the last years, several studies demonstrated that low-aggressive (Grade Group (GG) ≤ 2) and high-aggressive (GG ≥ 3) prostate cancers (PCas) have different prognoses mortality. Therefore, aim of this study was to develop externally validate a radiomic model noninvasively classify PCas based on biparametric magnetic resonance imaging (bpMRI). To end, 283 patients were retrospectively enrolled from four centers. Features extracted apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) maps T2-weighted (T2w)...
Abstract Objectives To investigate the intra- and inter-rater reliability of total methodological radiomics score (METRICS) its items through a multi-reader analysis. Materials methods A 12 raters with different backgrounds experience levels were recruited for study. Based on their level expertise, randomly assigned to following groups: two groups, intra-rater where each group included one without preliminary training session use METRICS. Inter-rater groups assessed all 34 papers, while...
To systematically review current research applications of radiomics in patients with cholangiocarcinoma and to assess the quality CT MRI studies.A systematic search was conducted on PubMed/Medline, Web Science, Scopus databases identify original studies assessing and/or MRI. Three readers different experience levels independently assessed using score (RQS). Subgroup analyses were performed according journal type, year publication, quartile impact factor (from Journal Citation Report...
PurposeTo assess the impact of prostate MRI image quality by means Prostate Imaging Quality (PI-QUAL) score, on identification extraprostatic extension disease (EPE), predicted using EPE Grade Score, Likert Scale Score (LSS) and a clinical nomogram (MSKCCn).MethodsWe retrospectively included 105 patients with multiparametric prior to prostatectomy. Two radiologists evaluated PI-QUAL (≥ 4 was considered high quality) in consensus. All cases were also scored Grade, LSS, MSKCCn (dichotomized)....
Hybrid 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) positron emission tomography and magnetic resonance imaging may differentiate mature fibrosis or scar from associated to active inflammation in patients with Anderson-Fabry disease, even nonhypertrophic stage. This study was designed compare the results of cardiac those speckle-tracking echocardiography heterozygous disease females.Twenty-four females carrying α-galactosidase A mutation without left ventricular hypertrophy underwent using 18F-FDG for...
(1) Background: Sarcopenia has a high incidence in Crohn’s disease (CD) with considerable heterogeneity among ethnicities and variable impact on clinical outcomes. Aim: to assess the of sarcopenia outcomes cohort Caucasian patients active CD undergoing CT-enterography (CTE) for assessment. We further investigated prevalence its predictors. (2) Methods: moderate−severe activity, who underwent CTE an emergency setting, were retrospectively recruited. The skeletal muscle index (SMI) at third...
