Development and validation a radiomics nomogram for diagnosing occult brain metastases in patients with stage IV lung adenocarcinoma

Abstract: Background: To develop and validate a radiomics model using computed tomography (CT) images acquired from the first diagnosis to estimate the status of occult brain metastases (BM) in patients with stage IV lung adenocarcinoma (LADC).Methods: One hundred and ninety-three patients who were first diagnosed with stage IV LADC were enrolled and divided into a training cohort (n=135) and a validation cohort (n=58). Then, 725 radiomic features were extracted from contoured primary tumor volumes of LADCs. Intra-and i… Show more

“…It indicates that intratumoral homogeneity may be the reason for differences in survival. In addition, most of the features in the Rad score-MS were wavelets, similar to the findings of others ( 22 , 23 ), as well as our previous studies ( 24 , 25 ). This is likely because the multifrequency decomposition of the original MRI image captured more extensive information about the tumor heterogeneity and phenotype to decode long-term survival rules, which clinicians cannot assess with the naked eye.…”

“…The pleural depression sign is caused by the scar tissue in the tumor pulling the adjacent visceral pleura. In the scar tissue of the tumor, there are changes in arachidonic acid metabolism, the overexpression of eicosanoid signaling genes, and the remodeling of alveolar capillaries, which are conducive to the shedding of tumor cells, indicating that the tumor foci with CT signs of pleural depression have great potential for distant metastasis [ 24 ]. Glszm_SmallAreaHighGrayLevelEmphasis is a small area of high gray emphasis in the gray area size matrix and is a texture feature.…”

“…At present, most of the research on radiomics in the lungs lies in the identification of benign and malignant nodules, gene mutations and molecular phenotypes, tumor case classification and prediction of lung cancer prognosis, and there are few studies in predicting brain metastases. Cong [35] constructed CT omics features and R-scores using eight wavelet-based radiomics features, which were significantly correlated with brain metastases. The optimal AUC of the line graph constructed by combining the R-score and the location of the primary tumor was 0.873 (95% CI: 0.866-0.80) in the validation set, with an average accuracy of 0.827 (95% CI: 0.820-0.834).…”
