Abstract
Sarcomas are heterogeneous rare tumors predominantly affecting the musculoskeletal (MSK) system. Due to significant variations in their natural history and variable response to conventional treatments, the discovery of novel diagnostic and prognostic biomarkers to guide therapeutic decision-making is an active and ongoing field of research. As new cellular, molecular, and metabolic biomarkers continue to be discovered, quantitative radiologic imaging is becoming increasingly important in sarcoma management. Radiomics offers the potential for discovering novel imaging diagnostic and predictive biomarkers using standard-of-care medical imaging. In this review, we detail the core concepts of radiomics and the application of radiomics to date in MSK sarcoma research. Also described are specific challenges related to radiomic studies, as well as viewpoints on clinical adoption and future perspectives in the field.
期刊介绍:
Seminars in Musculoskeletal Radiology is a review journal that is devoted to musculoskeletal and associated imaging techniques. The journal''s topical issues encompass a broad spectrum of radiological imaging including body MRI imaging, cross sectional radiology, ultrasound and biomechanics. The journal also covers advanced imaging techniques of metabolic bone disease and other areas like the foot and ankle, wrist, spine and other extremities.
The journal''s content is suitable for both the practicing radiologist as well as residents in training.
