Machine Learning Algorithms to Differentiate Among Pulmonary Complications After Hematopoietic Cell Transplant

Abstract: BACKGROUND: Pulmonary complications, including infections, are highly prevalent in patients after hematopoietic cell transplantation with chronic graft-vs-host disease. These comorbid diseases can make the diagnosis of early lung graft-vs-host disease (bronchiolitis obliterans syndrome) challenging. A quantitative method to differentiate among these pulmonary diseases can address diagnostic challenges and facilitate earlier and more targeted therapy. STUDY DESIGN AND METHODS:We conducted a single-center study … Show more

“…Lopez et al [29] used random forest to identify genes associated with the incidence of chronic GVHD while Sharifi et al [30] used unsupervised methods to distinguish pulmonary complications post-HSCT. Gandelman et al [31] also utilized unsupervised machine learning techniques for risk stratification of chronic GVHD.…”

“…Their identification of numerous HCT recipients with BOS, all of whom underwent standardized CT image acquisition and analysis, is an arduous and painstaking task. Sharifi et al 11 establish the feasibility of advanced image analysis with PRM and similar quantitative techniques to detect clinically evident BOS. The ambition of investigators should now be to test the utility of quantitative CT imaging in patients with early pulmonary impairment after HCT, which will require more intensive pulmonary screening of HCT recipients than currently performed.…”

“…In this issue of CHEST, Sharifi et al 11 examine the utility of PRM to evaluate the cause of dyspnea in 66 HCT recipients. Standardized protocols were used to obtain inspiratory and expiratory CT scans, and PRM was applied to these images to quantify the degree of gas trapping.…”

“…8 These were compared to the gold-standard clinician diagnosis by NIH criteria. 13 A subset of these data with differing diagnostic adjudication and disease classification was used in a previous machine learning study by our group 22 (see Supplemental Data File for details, Supplemental Digital Content 1, http://links.lww.com/JTI/ A190). The association of pertinent imaging findings was also analyzed with respect to PRM metrics, thus offering an integrated approach for quantitative and qualitative assessments to enhance clinician and radiologist diagnosis of BOS.…”
