A radiomics model of liver CT to predict risk of hepatic encephalopathy secondary to hepatitis B related cirrhosis.
European journal of radiology(2020)
Abstract
PURPOSE:To build a radiomics model of liver contrast-enhanced computed tomography (CT) to predict hepatic encephalopathy secondary to Hepatitis B related cirrhosis.
MATERIALS AND METHODS:This study consisted of 304 consecutive patients with first-diagnosed hepatitis B related cirrhosis. 212 and 92 patients were randomly computer-generated into training and testing cohorts, among which 38 and 21 patients endured HE, respectively. 356 radiomics features of liver were extracted from portal venous-phase CT data, and 3 clinical features were collected from medical record. After data were standardized by Z-score, we used least absolute shrinkage and selection operator to choose useful radiomics features. Ultimately, three predictive models including a radiomics model, a clinical model and an integrated model of radiomics and clinical features were built by analysis of R-software. Predictive performance was tested by multivariable logistic regression, and evaluated by area under receiver-operating characteristic curve (AUC), and accuracy.
RESULTS:19 radiomics features of liver CT were selected. The selected radiomics features and 3 relevant clinical features were applied to develop a radiomics model, a clinical model, and an integrated model of both radiomics and clinical features. The integrated model showed better performance than the radiomics model or clinical model to predict HE (AUC = 0.94 vs. 0.91 or 0.76, and 0.87 vs. 0.86 or 0.73; accuracy = 0.93 vs. 0.89 or 0.83, and 0.83 vs. 0.84 or 0.77) in the training and testing cohorts, respectively.
CONCLUSION:The integrated model of radiomics and clinical features could well predict HE secondary to hepatitis B related cirrhosis.
