Multiparametric MRI-based radiomics for the prediction of microvascular invasion in hepatocellular carcinoma
Acta radiologica (Stockholm, Sweden : 1987)(2023)
摘要
Background Preoperative prediction of microvascular invasion (MVI) in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is essential in obtaining a successful surgical treatment, in decreasing recurrence, and in improving survival. Purpose To investigate the value of multiparametric magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)-based radiomics in the prediction of peritumoral MVI in HCC. Material and Methods A total of 102 patient with pathologically proven HCC after surgical resection from June 2014 to March 2018 were enrolled in this retrospective study. Histological analysis of resected specimens confirmed positive MVI in 48 patients and negative MVI in 54 patients. Radiomics features were extracted from four MRI sequences and selected with the least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) regression and used to analyze the tumoral and peritumoral regions for MVI. Univariate logistic regression was employed to identify the most important clinical factors, which were integrated with the radiomics signature to develop a nomogram. Results In total, 11 radiomics features were selected and used to build the radiomics signature. The serum level of alpha-fetoprotein was identified as the clinical factor with the highest predictive value. The developed nomogram achieved the highest AUC in predicting MVI status. The decision curve analysis confirmed the potential clinical utility of the proposed nomogram. Conclusion The multiparametric MRI-based radiomics nomogram is a promising tool for the preoperative diagnosis of peritumoral MVI in HCCs and helps determine the appropriate medical or surgical therapy.
