Purpose To develop and validate a deep learning (DL) method to detect and segment enhancing and nonenhancing cellular tumor on pre- and posttreatment MRI scans in patients with glioblastoma and to predict overall survival (OS) and progression-free survival (PFS). Materials and Methods This retrospective study included 1397 MRI scans in 1297 patients with glioblastoma, including an internal set of 243 MRI scans (January 2010 to June 2022) for model training and cross-validation and four external test cohorts. Cellular tumor maps were segmented by two radiologists on the basis of imaging, clinical history, and pathologic findings. Multimodal MRI data with perfusion and multishell diffusion imaging were inputted into a nnU-Net DL model to segment cellular tumor. Segmentation performance (Dice score) and performance in distinguishing recurrent tumor from posttreatment changes (area under the receiver operating characteristic curve [AUC]) were quantified. Model performance in predicting OS and PFS was assessed using Cox multivariable analysis. Results A cohort of 178 patients (mean age, 56 years ± 13 [SD]; 116 male, 62 female) with 243 MRI timepoints, as well as four external datasets with 55, 70, 610, and 419 MRI timepoints, respectively, were evaluated. The median Dice score was 0.79 (IQR, 0.53-0.89), and the AUC for detecting residual or recurrent tumor was 0.84 (95% CI: 0.79, 0.89). In the internal test set, estimated cellular tumor volume was significantly associated with OS (hazard ratio [HR] = 1.04 per milliliter; P < .001) and PFS (HR = 1.04 per milliliter; P < .001) after adjustment for age, sex, and gross total resection (GTR) status. In the external test sets, estimated cellular tumor volume was significantly associated with OS (HR = 1.01 per milliliter; P < .001) after adjustment for age, sex, and GTR status. Conclusion A DL model incorporating advanced imaging could accurately segment enhancing and nonenhancing cellular tumor, distinguish recurrent or residual tumor from posttreatment changes, and predict OS and PFS in patients with glioblastoma.

Purpose To develop a deep learning algorithm to predict 2-year neurodevelopmental outcomes in neonates with hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy using MRI and basic clinical data. Materials and Methods In this study, MRI data of term neonates with encephalopathy in the High-dose Erythropoietin for Asphyxia and Encephalopathy (HEAL) trial (ClinicalTrials.gov: NCT02811263), who were enrolled from 17 institutions between January 25, 2017, and October 9, 2019, were retrospectively analyzed. The harmonized MRI protocol included T1-weighted, T2-weighted, and diffusion tensor imaging. Deep learning classifiers were trained to predict the primary outcome of the HEAL trial (death or any neurodevelopmental impairment at 2 years) using multisequence MRI and basic clinical variables, including sex and gestational age at birth. Model performance was evaluated on test sets comprising 10% of cases from 15 institutions (in-distribution test set, n = 41) and 10% of cases from two institutions (out-of-distribution test set, n = 41). Model performance in predicting additional secondary outcomes, including death alone, was also assessed. Results For the 414 neonates (mean gestational age, 39 weeks ± 1.4 [SD]; 232 male, 182 female), in the study cohort, 198 (48%) died or had any neurodevelopmental impairment at 2 years. The deep learning model achieved an area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC) of 0.74 (95% CI: 0.60, 0.86) and 63% accuracy in the in-distribution test set and an AUC of 0.77 (95% CI: 0.63, 0.90) and 78% accuracy in the out-of-distribution test set. Performance was similar or better for predicting secondary outcomes. Conclusion Deep learning analysis of neonatal brain MRI yielded high performance for predicting 2-year neurodevelopmental outcomes.

Purpose To determine whether time-dependent deep learning models can outperform single time point models in predicting preoperative upgrade of ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS) to invasive malignancy at dynamic contrast-enhanced (DCE) breast MRI without a lesion segmentation prerequisite. Materials and Methods In this exploratory study, 154 cases of biopsy-proven DCIS (25 upgraded at surgery and 129 not upgraded) were selected consecutively from a retrospective cohort of preoperative DCE MRI in women with a mean age of 59 years at time of diagnosis from 2012 to 2022. Binary classification was implemented with convolutional neural network (CNN)-long short-term memory (LSTM) architectures benchmarked against traditional CNNs without manual segmentation of the lesions. Combinatorial performance analysis of ResNet50 versus VGG16-based models was performed with each contrast phase. Binary classification area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC) was reported. Results VGG16-based models consistently provided better holdout test AUCs than did ResNet50 in CNN and CNN-LSTM studies (multiphase test AUC, 0.67 vs 0.59, respectively, for CNN models [P = .04] and 0.73 vs 0.62 for CNN-LSTM models [P = .008]). The time-dependent model (CNN-LSTM) provided a better multiphase test AUC over single time point (CNN) models (0.73 vs 0.67; P = .04). Conclusion Compared with single time point architectures, sequential deep learning algorithms using preoperative DCE MRI improved prediction of DCIS lesions upgraded to invasive malignancy without the need for lesion segmentation.

Purpose To assess the performance of a local open-source large language model (LLM) in various information extraction tasks from real-life emergency brain MRI reports. Materials and Methods All consecutive emergency brain MRI reports written in 2022 from a French quaternary center were retrospectively reviewed. Two radiologists identified MRI scans that were performed in the emergency department for headaches. Four radiologists scored the reports' conclusions as either normal or abnormal. Abnormalities were labeled as either headache-causing or incidental. Vicuna (LMSYS Org), an open-source LLM, performed the same tasks. Vicuna's performance metrics were evaluated using the radiologists' consensus as the reference standard. Results Among the 2398 reports during the study period, radiologists identified 595 that included headaches in the indication (median age of patients, 35 years [IQR, 26-51 years]; 68% [403 of 595] women). A positive finding was reported in 227 of 595 (38%) cases, 136 of which could explain the headache. The LLM had a sensitivity of 98.0% (95% CI: 96.5, 99.0) and specificity of 99.3% (95% CI: 98.8, 99.7) for detecting the presence of headache in the clinical context, a sensitivity of 99.4% (95% CI: 98.3, 99.9) and specificity of 98.6% (95% CI: 92.2, 100.0) for the use of contrast medium injection, a sensitivity of 96.0% (95% CI: 92.5, 98.2) and specificity of 98.9% (95% CI: 97.2, 99.7) for study categorization as either normal or abnormal, and a sensitivity of 88.2% (95% CI: 81.6, 93.1) and specificity of 73% (95% CI: 62, 81) for causal inference between MRI findings and headache. Conclusion An open-source LLM was able to extract information from free-text radiology reports with excellent accuracy without requiring further training.

Purpose To develop an artificial intelligence (AI) deep learning tool capable of predicting future breast cancer risk from a current negative screening mammographic examination and to evaluate the model on data from the UK National Health Service Breast Screening Program. Materials and Methods The OPTIMAM Mammography Imaging Database contains screening data, including mammograms and information on interval cancers, for more than 300 000 female patients who attended screening at three different sites in the United Kingdom from 2012 onward. Cancer-free screening examinations from women aged 50-70 years were performed and classified as risk-positive or risk-negative based on the occurrence of cancer within 3 years of the original examination. Examinations with confirmed cancer and images containing implants were excluded. From the resulting 5264 risk-positive and 191 488 risk-negative examinations, training (n = 89 285), validation (n = 2106), and test (n = 39 351) datasets were produced for model development and evaluation. The AI model was trained to predict future cancer occurrence based on screening mammograms and patient age. Performance was evaluated on the test dataset using the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC) and compared across subpopulations to assess potential biases. Interpretability of the model was explored, including with saliency maps. Results On the hold-out test set, the AI model achieved an overall AUC of 0.70 (95% CI: 0.69, 0.72). There was no evidence of a difference in performance across the three sites, between patient ethnicities, or across age groups. Visualization of saliency maps and sample images provided insights into the mammographic features associated with AI-predicted cancer risk. Conclusion The developed AI tool showed good performance on a multisite, United Kingdom-specific dataset.

Purpose To develop a radiomics framework for preoperative MRI-based prediction of isocitrate dehydrogenase (IDH) mutation status, a crucial glioma prognostic indicator. Materials and Methods Radiomics features (shape, first-order statistics, and texture) were extracted from the whole tumor or the combination of nonenhancing, necrosis, and edema regions. Segmentation masks were obtained via the federated tumor segmentation tool or the original data source. Boruta, a wrapper-based feature selection algorithm, identified relevant features. Addressing the imbalance between mutated and wild-type cases, multiple prediction models were trained on balanced data subsets using random forest or XGBoost and assembled to build the final classifier. The framework was evaluated using retrospective MRI scans from three public datasets (The Cancer Imaging Archive [TCIA, 227 patients], the University of California San Francisco Preoperative Diffuse Glioma MRI dataset [UCSF, 495 patients], and the Erasmus Glioma Database [EGD, 456 patients]) and internal datasets collected from the University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center (UTSW, 356 patients), New York University (NYU, 136 patients), and University of Wisconsin-Madison (UWM, 174 patients). TCIA and UTSW served as separate training sets, while the remaining data constituted the test set (1617 or 1488 testing cases, respectively). Results The best performing models trained on the TCIA dataset achieved area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC) values of 0.89 for UTSW, 0.86 for NYU, 0.93 for UWM, 0.94 for UCSF, and 0.88 for EGD test sets. The best performing models trained on the UTSW dataset achieved slightly higher AUCs: 0.92 for TCIA, 0.88 for NYU, 0.96 for UWM, 0.93 for UCSF, and 0.90 for EGD. Conclusion This MRI radiomics-based framework shows promise for accurate preoperative prediction of IDH mutation status in patients with glioma.

Sex-specific abdominal organ volume and proton density fat fraction (PDFF) in people with obesity during a weight loss intervention was assessed with automated multiorgan segmentation of quantitative water-fat MRI. An nnU-Net architecture was employed for automatic segmentation of abdominal organs, including visceral and subcutaneous adipose tissue, liver, and psoas and erector spinae muscle, based on quantitative chemical shift-encoded MRI and using ground truth labels generated from participants of the Lifestyle Intervention (LION) study. Each organ's volume and fat content were examined in 127 participants (73 female and 54 male participants; body mass index, 30-39.9 kg/m²) and in 81 (54 female and 32 male participants) of these participants after an 8-week formula-based low-calorie diet. Dice scores ranging from 0.91 to 0.97 were achieved for the automatic segmentation. PDFF was found to be lower in visceral adipose tissue compared with subcutaneous adipose tissue in both male and female participants. Before intervention, female participants exhibited higher PDFF in subcutaneous adipose tissue (90.6% vs 89.7%; P < .001) and lower PDFF in liver (8.6% vs 13.3%; P < .001) and visceral adipose tissue (76.4% vs 81.3%; P < .001) compared with male participants. This relation persisted after intervention. As a response to caloric restriction, male participants lost significantly more visceral adipose tissue volume (1.76 L vs 0.91 L; P < .001) and showed a higher decrease in subcutaneous adipose tissue PDFF (2.7% vs 1.5%; P < .001) than female participants. Automated body composition analysis on quantitative water-fat MRI data provides new insights for understanding sex-specific metabolic response to caloric restriction and weight loss in people with obesity.
