Objective

To develop a ultrasound images based dual-channel deep learning model to achieve accurate early diagnosis of thyroid nodules less than 1 cm.

Methods

A dual-channel deep learning model called thyroid nodule transformer network (TNT-Net) was proposed. The model has two input channels for transverse and longitudinal ultrasound images of thyroid nodules, respectively. A total of 9649 nodules from 8455 patients across five hospitals were retrospectively collected. The data were divided into a training set (8453 nodules, 7369 patients), an internal test set (565 nodules, 512 patients), and an external test set (631 nodules, 574 patients).

Results

TNT-Net achieved an area under the curve (AUC) of 0.953 (95 % confidence interval (CI): 0.934, 0.969) on the internal test set and 0.941 (95 % CI: 0.921, 0.957) on the external test set, significantly outperforming traditional deep convolutional neural network models and single-channel swin transformer model, whose AUCs ranged from 0.800 (95 % CI: 0.759, 0.837) to 0.856 (95 % CI: 0.819, 0.881). Furthermore, feature heatmap visualization showed that TNT-Net could extract richer and more energetic malignant nodule patterns.

Conclusion

The proposed TNT-Net model significantly improved the recognition capability for thyroid nodules with size less than 1 cm. This model has the potential to reduce overdiagnosis and overtreatment of such nodules, providing essential support for precise management of thyroid nodules while complementing fine-needle aspiration biopsy.
方法提出了一种名为甲状腺结节变压器网络(TNT-Net)的双通道深度学习模型。该模型有两个输入通道,分别用于甲状腺结节的横向和纵向超声图像。研究人员回顾性收集了五家医院 8455 名患者的 9649 个甲状腺结节。数据分为训练集(8453 个结节,7369 名患者)、内部测试集(565 个结节,512 名患者)和外部测试集(631 个结节,574 名患者)。结果TNT-Net在内部测试集上的曲线下面积(AUC)为0.953(95 % 置信区间(CI):0.934,0.969),在外部测试集上的曲线下面积(AUC)为0.941(95 % 置信区间(CI):0.921,0.957),明显优于传统的深度卷积神经网络模型和单通道swin transformer模型,后者的AUC在0.800(95 % 置信区间(CI):0.759,0.837)到0.856(95 % 置信区间(CI):0.819,0.881)之间。此外,特征热图可视化显示 TNT-Net 能提取出更丰富、更有活力的恶性结节模式。该模型有望减少此类结节的过度诊断和过度治疗,为甲状腺结节的精确管理提供重要支持,同时也是对细针穿刺活检的补充。

Purpose

We aim to develop an MRI-based radiomics model to improve the accuracy of differentiating non-ccRCC from benign renal tumors preoperatively.

Methods

The retrospective study included 195 patients with pathologically confirmed renal tumors (134 non-ccRCCs and 61 benign renal tumors) who underwent preoperative renal mass protocol MRI examinations. The patients were divided into a training set (n = 136) and test set (n = 59). Simple t-test and the Least Absolute Shrink and Selection Operator (LASSO) were used to select the most valuable features and the rad-scores of them were calculated. The clinicoradiologic models, single-sequence radiomics models, multi-sequence radiomics models and combined models for differentiation were constructed with 2 classifiers (support vector machine (SVM), logistic regression (LR)) in the training set and used for differentiation in the test set. Ten-fold cross validation was applied to obtain the optimal hyperparameters of the models. The performances of the models were evaluated by the area under the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve (AUC). Delong’s test was performed to compare the performances of models.

Results

After univariate and multivariate logistic regression analysis, the independent risk factors to differentiate non-ccRCC from benign renal tumors were selected as follows: age, tumor region, hemorrhage, pseudocapsule and enhancement degree. Among the 14 machine learning classification models constructed, the combined model with LR has the highest efficiency in differentiating non-ccRCC from benign renal tumors. The AUC in the training set is 0.964, and the accuracy is 0.919. The AUC in the test set is 0.936, and the accuracy is 0.864.

Conclusion

The MRI-based radiomics machine learning is feasible to differentiate non-ccRCC from benign renal tumors, which could improve the accuracy of clinical diagnosis.

Background

Chest radiographs (CXRs) are widely used to screen for infectious diseases like tuberculosis and COVID-19 among migrants. At such high-volume settings, manual CXR reporting is challenging and integrating artificial intelligence (AI) algorithms into the workflow help to rule out normal findings in minutes, allowing radiologists to focus on abnormal cases.

Methods

In this post-deployment study, all the CXRs acquired during the visa screening process across 33 centers in United Arab Emirates from January 2021 to June 2022 (18 months) were included. The qXR v2.1 chest X-ray interpretation software was used to classify the scans into normal and abnormal, and its agreement against radiologist was evaluated. Additionally, a digital survey was conducted among 20 healthcare professionals with prior AI experience to understand real-world implementation challenges and impact.

Results

The analysis of 1309,443 CXRs from 1309,431 patients (median age: 35 years; IQR [29–42]; 1030,071 males [78.7 %]) in this study revealed a Negative Predictive Value (NPV) of 99.92 % (95 % CI: 99.92, 99.93), Positive Predictive Value (PPV) of 5.06 % (95 % CI: 4.99, 5.13) and overall percent agreement of the AI with radiologists of 72.90 % (95 % CI: 72.82, 72.98). In the survey, majority (88.2 %) of the radiologists agreed to turnaround time reduction after AI integration, while 82 % suggested that the AI improved their diagnostic accuracy.

Discussion

In contrast with the existing studies, this research uses a substantially large data. A high NPV and satisfactory agreement with human readers indicate that AI can reliably identify normal CXRs, making it suitable for routine applications.
背景胸片(CXR)被广泛用于筛查传染性疾病,如肺结核和移民中的 COVID-19。在这种高容量的环境中,人工 CXR 报告具有挑战性,而将人工智能(AI)算法整合到工作流程中有助于在几分钟内排除正常结果,使放射科医生能够专注于异常病例。方法在这项部署后研究中,纳入了 2021 年 1 月至 2022 年 6 月(18 个月)期间阿拉伯联合酋长国 33 个中心在签证筛查过程中获得的所有 CXR。研究人员使用 qXR v2.1 胸部 X 光解读软件将扫描结果分为正常和异常两类,并评估了该软件与放射科医生的一致性。此外,还对 20 名具有人工智能经验的医疗保健专业人员进行了数字调查,以了解现实世界中实施人工智能所面临的挑战和产生的影响。7 %])的阴性预测值 (NPV) 为 99.92 %(95 % CI:99.92,99.93),阳性预测值 (PPV) 为 5.06 %(95 % CI:4.99,5.13),人工智能与放射科医生的总体一致率为 72.90 %(95 % CI:72.82,72.98)。在调查中,大多数放射科医生(88.2%)同意在集成人工智能后缩短周转时间,82%的放射科医生认为人工智能提高了他们的诊断准确性。高 NPV 和与人类读者的满意度表明,人工智能能可靠地识别正常的 CXR,因此适合常规应用。

Purpose

To develop a multi-modal model combining multi-sequence breast MRI fusion radiomics and deep learning for the classification of benign and malignant breast lesions, to assist clinicians in better selecting treatment plans.

Methods

A total of 314 patients who underwent breast MRI examinations were included. They were randomly divided into training, validation, and test sets in a ratio of 7:1:2. Subsequently, features of T1-weighted images (T1WI), T2-weighted images (T2WI), and dynamic contrast-enhanced MRI (DCE-MRI) were extracted using the convolutional neural network ResNet50 for fusion, and then combined with radiomic features from the three sequences. The following models were established: T1 model, T2 model, DCE model, DCE_T1_T2 model, and DCE_T1_T2_rad model. The performance of the models was evaluated by the area under the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve (AUC), accuracy, sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value, and negative predictive value. The differences between the DCE_T1_T2_rad model and the other four models were compared using the Delong test, with a P-value < 0.05 considered statistically significant.

Results

The five models established in this study performed well, with AUC values of 0.53 for the T1 model, 0.62 for the T2 model, 0.79 for the DCE model, 0.94 for the DCE_T1_T2 model, and 0.98 for the DCE_T1_T2_rad model. The DCE_T1_T2_rad model showed statistically significant differences (P < 0.05) compared to the other four models.

Conclusion

The use of a multi-modal model combining multi-sequence breast MRI fusion radiomics and deep learning can effectively improve the diagnostic performance of breast lesion classification.

Objectives

There is a lack of clear and consistent cost reporting for cost-effectiveness analysis in radiology. Estimates are often obtained using costing derived from hospital charge records. This study aims to evaluate the accuracy of hospital charge records compared to a Singapore hospital's true diagnostic imaging costs.

Methods

A seven-step process involving a bottom-up micro-costing approach was devised and followed to calculate the cost of imaging using actual data from a clinical setting. We retrieved electronic data from a random sample of 96 emergency department patients who had CT brain, CT and X-ray cervical spine, and X-ray lumbar spine performed to calculate the parameters required for cost estimation. We adjusted imaging duration and number of performing personnel to account for variations.

Results

Our approach determined the average cost for the following imaging procedures: CT brain (€154.00), CT and X-ray cervical spine (€177.14 and €68.22), and X-ray lumbar spine (€79.85). We found that the true cost of both conventional radiography procedures was marginally higher than the subsidized patient charge, and all costs were slightly lower than the private patient charge except for X-ray lumbar spine (€73.49 vs.€79.85). We identified larger differences in cost for both CT procedures and smaller differences in cost for conventional radiography procedures, depending on the patient's private or subsidized status. For private status, the differences were: CT brain (Min: €194.20; Max: €264.40), CT cervical spine (Min: €219.54; Max: €399.05), X-ray cervical spine (Min: €5.27; Max: €61.94), and X-ray lumbar spine (Min: €6.36; Max: €108.04), while for subsidized status, the differences were: CT brain (Min: €7.56; Max: €62.64), CT cervical spine (Min: €47.02; Max: €132.49), X-ray cervical spine (Min: €15.88; Max: €103.44), and X-ray lumbar spine (Min: €13.66; Max: €149.44). Considering examination duration and the number of personnel engaged in a procedure, there were significant variations in the minimum, average, and maximum imaging costs.

Conclusion

Purpose

The novel coronavirus pneumonia (COVID-19) has continually spread and mutated, requiring a patient risk stratification system to optimize medical resources and improve pandemic response. We aimed to develop a conformal prediction-based tri-light warning system for stratifying COVID-19 patients, applicable to both original and emerging variants.

Methods

We retrospectively collected data from 3646 patients across multiple centers in China. The dataset was divided into a training set (n = 1451), a validation set (n = 662), an external test set from Huoshenshan Field Hospital (n = 1263), and a specific test set for Delta and Omicron variants (n = 544). The tri-light warning system extracts radiomic features from CT (computed tomography) and integrates clinical records to classify patients into high-risk (red), uncertain-risk (yellow), and low-risk (green) categories. Models were built to predict ICU (intensive care unit) admissions (adverse cases in training/validation/Huoshenshan/variant test sets: n = 39/21/262/11) and were evaluated using AUROC ((area under the receiver operating characteristic curve)) and AUPRC ((area under the precision-recall curve)) metrics.

Results

The dataset included 1830 men (50.2 %) and 1816 women (50.8 %), with a median age of 53.7 years (IQR [interquartile range]: 42–65 years). The system demonstrated strong performance under data distribution shifts, with AUROC of 0.89 and AUPRC of 0.42 for original strains, and AUROC of 0.77–0.85 and AUPRC of 0.51–0.60 for variants.

Conclusion

The tri-light warning system can enhance pandemic responses by effectively stratifying COVID-19 patients under varying conditions and data shifts.
目的新型冠状病毒肺炎(COVID-19)不断传播和变异,需要一套患者风险分层系统来优化医疗资源和提高大流行应对能力。我们旨在开发一种基于保形预测的三光预警系统,用于对 COVID-19 患者进行分层,该系统既适用于原始变异株,也适用于新出现的变异株。数据集分为训练集(n = 1451)、验证集(n = 662)、来自霍山野战医院的外部测试集(n = 1263)以及针对Delta和Omicron变异体的特定测试集(n = 544)。三光预警系统从 CT(计算机断层扫描)中提取放射学特征,并整合临床记录,将患者分为高风险(红色)、不确定风险(黄色)和低风险(绿色)类别。建立的模型用于预测 ICU(重症监护室)入院情况(训练/验证/霍山/变异测试集中的不良病例:n = 39/21/262/11),并使用 AUROC(接收者操作特征曲线下面积)和 AUPRC(精确度-召回曲线下面积)指标进行评估。结果数据集包括 1830 名男性(50.2%)和 1816 名女性(50.8%),中位年龄为 53.7 岁(IQR [四分位间范围]:42-65 岁)。该系统在数据分布变化的情况下表现出很强的性能,原始菌株的 AUROC 为 0.89,AUPRC 为 0.42;变异菌株的 AUROC 为 0.77-0.85,AUPRC 为 0.51-0.60。

Purpose

To investigate the potential role of radiomics-based machine learning in differentiating small renal oncocytoma (RO) from clear cells carcinoma (ccRCC) on contrast-enhanced CT (CECT).

Material and methods

Fifty-two patients with small renal masses who underwent CECT before surgery between January 2016 and December 2020 were retrospectively included in the study. At pathology examination 39 ccRCC and 13 RO were identified. All lesions were manually delineated unenhanced (B), arterial (A) and venous (V) phases. Radiomics features were extracted using three different fixed bin widths (bw) of 25 HU, 10 HU, and 5 HU from each phase (B, A, V), and with different combinations (B+A, B+V, B+A+V, A+V), leading to 21 different datasets. Montecarlo Cross Validation technique was used to quantify the estimator performance. The final model built using the hyperparameter selected with Optuna was trained again on the training set and the final performance evaluation was made on the test set.

Results

The A+V bw 10 achieved the greater median (IQR) balanced accuracy considering all the models of 0.70 (0.64–0.75), while A bw 10 considering only the monophasic ones. The A bw 10 model achieved a median (IQR) sensitivity of 0.60 (0.40–0.60), specificity of 0.80 (0.73–0.87), AUC-ROC of 0.77 (0.66–0.84), accuracy of 0.75 (0.70–0.80), and a Phi Coefficient of 0.38 (0.20–0.47). None of the nine models with the lowest mean balanced accuracy values implemented features from A.

Conclusion

The A bw 10 model was identified as the most efficient mono-phasic model in differentiating small RO from ccRCC.
目的 研究基于放射组学的机器学习在对比增强 CT(CECT)上区分肾小肿瘤(RO)和透明细胞癌(ccRCC)的潜在作用。病理检查结果显示,39 例为ccRCC,13 例为RO。所有病变均由人工划定未增强期(B)、动脉期(A)和静脉期(V)。采用 25 HU、10 HU 和 5 HU 三种不同的固定分档宽度(bw)提取每个阶段(B、A、V)的放射组学特征,并采用不同的组合(B+A、B+V、B+A+V、A+V),最终得到 21 个不同的数据集。蒙特卡洛交叉验证技术用于量化估计器的性能。使用 Optuna 选定的超参数建立的最终模型在训练集上再次进行训练,并在测试集上进行最终性能评估。结果考虑到所有模型,A+V bw 10 获得了更高的中位数(IQR)平衡精度 0.70(0.64-0.75),而 A bw 10 仅考虑了单相模型。A bw 10 模型的灵敏度中位数(IQR)为 0.60(0.40-0.60),特异性为 0.80(0.73-0.87),AUC-ROC 为 0.77(0.66-0.84),准确度为 0.75(0.70-0.80),Phi 系数为 0.38(0.20-0.47)。结论A bw 10模型被认为是区分小RO和ccRCC最有效的单相模型。

Purpose

This study aimed to assess the diagnostic performance of dynamic chest radiography (DCR) and investigate its added value to chest radiography (CR) in detecting pulmonary embolism (PE).

Methods

Of 775 patients who underwent CR and DCR in our hospital between June 2020 and August 2022, individuals who also underwent contrast-enhanced CT (CECT) of the chest within 72 h were included in this study. PE or non-PE diagnosis was confirmed by CECT and the subsequent clinical course. The enrolled patients were randomized into two groups. Six observers, including two thoracic radiologists, two cardiologists, and two radiology residents, interpreted each chest radiograph with and without DCR using a crossover design with a washout period. Diagnostic performance was compared between CR with and without DCR in the standing and supine positions.

Results

Sixty patients (15 PE, 45 non-PE) were retrospectively enrolled. The addition of DCR to CR significantly improved the sensitivity, specificity, accuracy, and area under the curve (AUC) in the standing (35.6–70.0 % [P < 0.0001], 84.8–93.3 % [P = 0.0010], 72.5–87.5 % [P < 0.0001], and 0.66–0.85 [P < 0.0001], respectively) and supine (33.3–65.6 % [P < 0.0001], 78.5–92.2 % [P < 0.0001], 67.2–85.6 % [P < 0.0001], and 0.62–0.80 [P = 0.0002], respectively) positions for PE detection. No significant differences were found between the AUC values of DCR with CR in the standing and supine positions (P = 0.11) or among radiologists, cardiologists, and radiology residents (P = 0.14–0.68).

Conclusions

Incorporating DCR with CR demonstrated moderate sensitivity, high specificity, and high accuracy in detecting PE, all of which were significantly higher than those achieved with CR alone, regardless of scan position, observer expertise, or experience.
目的 本研究旨在评估动态胸部放射摄影(DCR)的诊断性能,并探讨其在检测肺栓塞(PE)方面对胸部放射摄影(CR)的附加价值。方法 在 2020 年 6 月至 2022 年 8 月期间,在我院接受 CR 和 DCR 检查的 775 例患者中,纳入了 72 小时内同时接受胸部对比增强 CT(CECT)检查的患者。PE或非PE的诊断由CECT和随后的临床病程证实。入组患者被随机分为两组。包括两名胸部放射科医生、两名心脏病医生和两名放射科住院医师在内的六名观察者采用交叉设计和冲洗期对每张使用和未使用 DCR 的胸片进行判读。结果回顾性纳入了 60 名患者(15 名 PE 患者,45 名非 PE 患者)。在 CR 中添加 DCR 后,站立位的敏感性、特异性、准确性和曲线下面积(AUC)均有明显改善(35.6-70.0 % [P < 0.0001]、84.8-93.3 % [P = 0.0010]、72.5-87.5 % [P < 0.0001], and 0.66-0.85 [P < 0.0001], respectively) and supine (33.3-65.6 % [P < 0.0001], 78.5-92.2 % [P < 0.0001], 67.2-85.6 % [P < 0.0001], and 0.62-0.80 [P = 0.0002], respectively) positions for PE detection.结论将 DCR 与 CR 结合在一起在检测 PE 方面表现出中等灵敏度、高特异性和高准确性,无论扫描体位、观察者的专业知识或经验如何,其灵敏度、特异性和准确性均明显高于单独使用 CR 所达到的结果。

Purpose

To propose an intelligent, non-invasive, highly precise, and rapid method to predict the mutation status of the Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor (EGFR) to accelerate treatment with Tyrosine Kinase Inhibitor (TKI) for patients with untreated adenocarcinoma Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer.

Materials and methods

Real-world data from 521 patients with adenocarcinoma NSCLC who performed a CT scan and underwent surgery or pathological biopsy to determine EGFR gene mutation between January 2021 and July 2022, is collected. Solutions to the problems that prevent the model from achieving very high precision, namely: human errors made during the annotation of the database and the low precision of the output decision of the model, are proposed. Thus, among the 521 analyzed cases, only 40 were selected as patients with EGFR gene mutation and 98 cases with wild-type EGFR.

Results

The proposed model is trained, validated, and tested on 12,040 2D images extracted from the 138 CT scans images where patients were randomly partitioned into training (80 %) and test (20 %) sets. The performance obtained for EGFR gene mutation prediction was 95.22 % for accuracy, 960.2 for F1_score, 95.89 % for precision, 96.92 % for sensitivity, 94.01 % for Cohen kappa, and 98 % for AUC.

Conclusion

An EGFR gene mutation status prediction method, with high-performance thanks to an intelligent prediction model entrained by highly accurate annotated data is proposed. The outcome of this project will facilitate rapid decision-making when applying a TKI as an initial treatment.

目的提出一种智能、无创、高精度、快速预测表皮生长因子受体(EGFR)突变状态的方法,以加快未经治疗的腺癌非小细胞肺癌患者使用酪氨酸激酶抑制剂(TKI)的治疗。材料与方法 收集了 2021 年 1 月至 2022 年 7 月期间进行 CT 扫描并接受手术或病理活检以确定 EGFR 基因突变的 521 名腺癌 NSCLC 患者的真实世界数据。针对数据库注释过程中出现的人为错误和模型输出决策精度较低等阻碍模型达到极高精确度的问题,提出了解决方案。因此,在 521 个分析病例中,只有 40 例被选为表皮生长因子受体(EGFR)基因突变患者,98 例为表皮生长因子受体(EGFR)野生型患者。表皮生长因子受体基因突变预测的准确率为 95.22%,F1_score 为 960.2,精确度为 95.89%,灵敏度为 96.92%,Cohen kappa 为 94.01%,AUC 为 98%。该项目的成果将有助于在应用 TKI 作为初始治疗时快速做出决策。

Objective

This study aims to analyze the quantitative parameters and morphological indices of three-dimensional (3D) visualization to differentiate lepidic predominant adenocarcinoma (LPA) from non-LPA subtypes, which include acinar predominant adenocarcinoma (APA), papillary predominant adenocarcinoma (PPA), micropapillary predominant adenocarcinoma (MPA), and solid predominant adenocarcinoma (SPA).

Methods

A group of 178 individuals diagnosed with lung adenocarcinoma were chosen and categorized into two groups: the LPA group and the non-LPA group, according to their pathological results. Quantitative parameters and morphological indexes such as 3D volume, solid proportion, and vascular cluster sign were obtained using 3D visualization and reconstruction techniques.

Results

Significant differences were observed in the vascular cluster sign, spiculation, shape, air bronchogram, bubble-like lucency, margin, pleural indentation, lobulation, maximum tumor diameter, 3D mean CT value, 3D volume, 3D mass, 3D density, and solid proportion between two groups (P<0.05). The optimal cut-off values for diagnosing non-LPA were a 3D mean CT value of −445.45 HU, a 3D density of 0.56 mg·mm−3, and a solid proportion reaching 27.95 %. Multivariate logistic regression analysis revealed that 3D mean CT value, lobulation, and margin characteristics independently predicted stageⅠinvasive lung adenocarcinoma. The combination of three indicators significantly improved prediction accuracy (AUC=0.881).

Conclusion

The utilization of 3D visualization technology in a systematic approach enables the acquisition of 3D quantitative parameters and morphological indicators of thin-slice CT lesions. These efforts significantly contribute to the identification of histopathological subtypes for stageⅠinvasive lung adenocarcinoma. When integrated with pertinent clinical data, this offers essential guidance for developing various surgical techniques and treatment plans.

目的 本研究旨在分析三维(3D)可视化的定量参数和形态学指标,以区分鳞状占位腺癌(LPA)和非LPA亚型,非LPA亚型包括针状占位腺癌(APA)、乳头状占位腺癌(PPA)、微乳头状占位腺癌(MPA)和实变占位腺癌(SPA)。方法 选择 178 例确诊为肺腺癌的患者,根据病理结果将其分为两组:LPA 组和非 LPA 组。结果两组患者的血管团征、棘点、形态、气管图、气泡样通明、边缘、胸膜压痕、分叶、肿瘤最大直径、三维平均 CT 值、三维体积、三维质量、三维密度、实性比例等定量参数和形态学指标差异显著(P<0.05)。诊断非 LPA 的最佳临界值为三维 CT 平均值为 -445.45 HU、三维密度为 0.56 mg-mm-3、实性比例达到 27.95 %。多变量逻辑回归分析显示,三维平均 CT 值、分叶和边缘特征可独立预测Ⅰ期浸润性肺腺癌。结论通过系统地利用三维可视化技术,可获得薄层 CT 病灶的三维定量参数和形态学指标。这些工作大大有助于确定Ⅰ期浸润性肺腺癌的组织病理学亚型。结合相关临床数据,这为制定各种手术技术和治疗方案提供了重要指导。
