To evaluate the preoperative predictive value of a nomogram based on contrast-enhanced T1-weighted imaging (CE-T1WI) radiomics and clinical-MRIomics for aggressive histological types of endometrial cancer.
Methods
2
A total of 192 patients with endometrial cancer pathologically confirmed by surgery at The First Affiliated Hospital,Southern University of Science and Technology,from January 2016 to August 2024 were retrospectively analyzed,including 48 patients with aggressive histological types. The patients were randomly divided into a training set(
n
=134) and a test set(
n
=58) at a ratio of 7∶3. Radiomic features were extracted using ITK-SNAP,and feature selection was performed using multivariable analysis and least absolute shrinkage and selection operator(LASSO) regression.
Clinical and MRI features were screened using Spearman correlation analysis from 11 parameters,including age,body mass index(BMI),carbohydrate antigen 19-9(CA199),CA125,neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio(NLR),apparent diffusion coefficient(ADC),tumor-to-myometrium signal ratio on T2WI(RatioT

). Based on radiomics and clinical-MRIomics features,eight models were constructed,including logistic regression(LR),support vector machine(SVM),k-nearest neighbor(KNN),random forest(RF),Extra Trees,XGBoost,LightGBM,and multilayer perceptron(MLP). Receiver operating characteristic(ROC) curves were used to select the optimal radiomics and clinical-MRIomics models for constructing the nomogram. Calibration curves were used to evaluate calibration,and decision curve analysis(DCA) was used to assess clinical utility.
Results
2
Seven radiomic features and five clinical-MRI features,namely age,CA199,ADC,RatioCE,and Deep,were incorporated into the models. Among the radiomics and clinical-MRIomics models,the LightGBM model showed the best predictive performance. The AUCs of the radiomics model were 0.889 and 0.788 in the training and test sets,respectively,while those of the clinical-MRIomics model were 0.893 and 0.835,respectively. In the test set,the AUC,accuracy,sensitivity,and specificity of the nomogram were 0.888,0.879,0.800,and 0.907,respectively. Calibration curve and DCA showed that the nomogram had good calibration and a relatively high clinical net benefit.
Conclusion
2
The nomogram based on CE-T1WI radiomics and clinical-MRIomics can effectively predict aggressive histological types of endometrial cancer before surgery,providing guidance for individualized treatment.
