Summary: Anatomical cross-sectional imaging methods are standard for the diagnosis, treatment planning, and follow-up of meningioma patients, and advanced neuroimaging provides detailed information about the molecular and metabolic characteristics of meningiomas. Artificial intelligence methods like radiomics can extract imaging features from routine MRI and CT scans, linking imaging phenotypes to meningioma characteristics.

Summary: This study aimed to identify the molecular basis of four parameters obtained from dynamic contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging. The results showed that functional tumor volume (FTV) was positively correlated with proliferation-related pathways, longest diameter (LD) was positively correlated with signal transmission-related pathways, and sphericity was positively correlated with immune-related pathways. The decrease in sphericity was negatively correlated with baseline sphericity and immune signatures, and could serve as a predictor for response to neoadjuvant chemotherapy.

Summary: This study investigated the quality of CBCT-based radiomic features and their relationship with reconstruction and preprocessing methods. It was found that CBCT radiomic features are generally more repeatable than reproducible, and certain features from specific classes showed high levels of repeatability and reproducibility. The study suggests that improving repeatability of CBCT radiomic features through reconstruction and preprocessing methods may decrease their reproducibility.

Summary: This article aims to prove that CT-based radiomics can predict KRAS mutation in CRC patients. The study used 56 CRC patients from the Hospital of Santiago de Compostela in Spain and obtained radiomics features through abdominal contrast enhancement CT. The results showed that AdaBoost ensemble on clinical patient data had the most reliable prediction ability, with a kappa and accuracy of 53.7% and 76.8% for KRAS mutation.

Summary: Texture analysis and radiomics are tools used to explore the amount of data in images. Texture analysis extracts features to uncover disease characteristics, while radiomics extracts quantitative data from medical images to correlate with clinical outcomes. In recent years, these methods have been widely used in various fields, providing clinical radiologists with tools for data processing and identifying important papers.

Summary: This study explored the potential of multiparametric MRI harmonization in improving the classification of radionecrosis and tumor progression. The results showed that harmonization reduced scanner-related variability and improved the predictive performance of radiomics-based models. Radiomics features extracted from MRI perfusion had the highest accuracy, while features from T1-weighted MRI alone also achieved high accuracy before contrast injection.

Summary: The study aimed to develop and validate a nomogram based on clinical factors and contrast-enhanced CBBCT radiomics features to predict axillary lymph node metastasis and complement limited axilla coverage. The nomogram showed potential in distinguishing ALN positive from negative and addressing the limitation of axilla coverage in CBBCT.

Summary: This study investigated the associations between dynamic contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (DCE-MRI) features and gene expression characteristics in breast cancer (BC). The researchers identified specific imaging features that were significantly associated with BC subtypes and prognosis, and developed classifiers to predict clinical receptors, PAM50 subtypes, and prognostic gene sets. These imaging features have the potential to non-invasively predict clinical characteristics and prognosis of breast cancer.

Summary: The increasing use of CT and CBCT in oral and maxillofacial imaging has led to the development of deep learning and radiomics applications for maxillofacial disease diagnosis and management. Deep learning models have been developed for automatic diagnosis, segmentation, and classification of various maxillofacial diseases, while radiomics applications mainly focus on diagnosing occult metastasis and osteoarthritis. These models show high performance and have the potential for clinical use, but challenges in generalizability and reproducibility need to be addressed.

Summary: The study implemented a daily CBCT based dose accumulation technique to assess ideal robust optimization parameters for IMPT treatment of prostate cancer. Results indicated that plans with +/- 3mm/+/- 3% uncertainty provided satisfactory CTV coverage and superior sparing to OARs compared to plans with +/- 5 mm/+/- 3% uncertainty. Weekly dose accumulation accurately estimated the overall dose delivered to prostate cancer patients.

Summary: This study quantitatively assessed the accuracy of a commercially available deformable image registration (DIR) algorithm in generating prostate contours, showing high consistency between auto-generated and manually drawn contours, as well as good robustness of radiomic features to differing contours. The majority of DIRs were within recommended tolerance, indicating promising potential for auto contour usage in radiomic feature analysis.

Summary: The study found that only 9.7% of radiation therapy recommendations in NCCN guidelines are category I evidence, with the highest levels of evidence for radiation therapy found in breast and cervical cancers. There is a significant difference in the distribution of consensus and evidence between radiation therapy recommendations and systemic therapy recommendations. The proportion of category I evidence is significantly higher in systemic therapy recommendations compared to radiation therapy recommendations.

Summary: This study investigated the performance of CBCT-based delta-radiomic features (DRF) models in predicting acute and sub-acute International Prostate Symptom Scores (IPSS) and Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) version 5 GU toxicity grades for prostate cancer (PCa) patients treated with definitive radiotherapy (RT). The results showed that the DRF models based on CBCT images could accurately predict IPSS and CTCAE grades as early as week 1 of treatment. This study highlights the potential of using CBCT-based DRF models for predicting RT outcomes.
