    Abstract Rationale and objectives: To assess differences in radiomics derived from semi-automatic segmentation of liver metastases for stable disease (SD), partial response (PR), and progressive disease (PD) based on RECIST1.1 and to assess if radiomics alone at baseline can predict response.
    Materials and methods: Our IRB-approved study included 203 women (mean age 54 ± 11 years) with metastatic liver disease from breast cancer. All patients underwent contrast abdomen-pelvis CT in the portal venous phase at two points: baseline (pre-treatment) and follow-up (between 3 and 12 months following treatment). Patients were subcategorized into three subgroups based on RECIST 1.1 criteria (Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors version 1.1): 66 with SD, 69 with PR, and 68 with PD on follow-up CT. The deidentified baseline and follow-up CT images were exported to the radiomics prototype. The prototype enabled semi-automatic segmentation of the target liver lesions for the extraction of first and high order radiomics. Statistical analyses with logistic regression and random forest classifiers were performed to differentiate SD from PD and PR.
    Results: There was no significant difference between the radiomics on the baseline and follow-up CT images of patients with SD (area under the curve (AUC): 0.3). Random forest classifier differentiated patients with PR with an AUC of 0.845. The most relevant feature was the large dependence emphasis's high and low pass wavelet filter (derived gray level dependence matrix features). Random forest classifier differentiated PD with an AUC of 0.731, with the most relevant feature being the surface-to-volume ratio. There was no difference in radiomics among the three groups at baseline; therefore, a response could not be predicted.
    Conclusion: Radiomics of liver metastases with semi-automatic segmentation demonstrate differences between SD from PR and PD.
    Summary statement: Semiautomatic segmentation and radiomics of metastatic liver disease demonstrate differences in SD from the PR and progressive metastatic on the baseline and follow-up CT. Despite substantial variations in the scanners, acquisition, and reconstruction parameters, radiomics had an AUC of 0.84-0.89 for differentiating stable hepatic metastases from decreasing and increasing metastatic disease.

    Abstract Purpose: To externally validate an algorithm for non-invasive differentiation of hepatic mucinous cystic neoplasms (MCN) from benign hepatic cysts (BHC), which differ in management.
    Methods: Patients with cystic liver lesions pathologically confirmed as MCN or BHC between January 2005 and March 2022 from multiple institutions were retrospectively included. Five readers (2 radiologists, 3 non-radiologist physicians) independently reviewed contrast-enhanced CT or MRI examinations before tissue sampling and applied the 3-feature classification algorithm described by Hardie et al. to differentiate between MCN and BHC, which had a reported accuracy of 93.5%. The classification was then compared to the pathology results. Interreader agreement between readers across different levels of experience was evaluated with Fleiss' Kappa.
    Results: The final cohort included 159 patients, median age of 62 years (IQR [52.0, 70.0]), 66.7% female (106). Of all patients, 89.3% (142) had BHC, and the remaining 10.7% (17) had MCN on pathology. Agreement for class designation between the radiologists was almost perfect (Fleiss' Kappa 0.840, p < 0.001). The algorithm had an accuracy of 98.1% (95% CI [94.6%, 99.6%]), a positive predictive value of 100.0% (95% CI [76.8%, 100.0%]), a negative predictive value of 97.9% (95% CI [94.1%, 99.6%]), and an area under the receiver operator characteristic curve (AUC) of 0.911 (95% CI [0.818, 1.000]).
    Conclusion: The evaluated algorithm showed similarly high diagnostic accuracy in our external, multi-institutional validation cohort. This 3-feature algorithm is easily and rapidly applied and its features are reproducible among radiologists, showing promise as a clinical decision support tool.

    Abstract Purpose: Radiomics help move cross-sectional imaging into the domain of quantitative imaging to assess the lesions, their stoma as well as in their temporal monitoring. We applied and assessed the accuracy of radiomics for differentiating healthy liver from diffuse liver diseases (cirrhosis, steatosis, amiodarone deposition, and iron overload) on non-contrast abdomen CT images in an institutional-reviewed board-approved, retrospective study.
    Methods: Our study included 300 adult patients (mean age 63 ± 16 years; 171 men, 129 women) who underwent non-contrast abdomen CT and had either a healthy liver (n = 100 patients) or an evidence of diffuse liver disease (n = 200). The diffuse liver diseases included steatosis (n = 50), cirrhosis (n = 50), hyperdense liver due to amiodarone deposition (n = 50), or iron overload (n = 50). We manually segmented the liver in one section at the level of the porta hepatis (all 300 patients) and then over the entire liver volume (50 patients). Radiomics were estimated for the liver, and statistical comparison was performed with multiple logistic regression and random forest classifier.
    Results: With random forest classifier, the AUC for radiomics ranged between 0.72 (iron overload vs. healthy liver) and 0.98 (hepatic steatosis vs. healthy liver) for differentiating diffuse liver disease from the healthy liver. Combined root mean square and gray-level co-occurrence matrix had the highest AUC (AUC:0.99, p < 0.01) for differentiating healthy liver from steatosis. Radiomics were more accurate for differentiating healthy liver from amiodarone (AUC:0.93) than from iron overload (AUC:0.79).
    Conclusion: Radiomics enable differentiation of healthy liver from hepatic steatosis, cirrhosis, amiodarone deposition, and iron overload from a single section of non-contrast abdominal CT. The high accuracy of radiomics coupled with rapid segmentation of the region of interest, radiomics estimation, and statistical analyses within the same prototype makes a compelling case for bringing radiomics to clinical use for improving reporting in evaluation of healthy liver and diffuse liver diseases.

    Abstract To assess the correlation between breast arterial calcifications (BAC) on digital mammography and the extent of coronary artery disease (CAD) diagnosed with dual source coronary computed tomography angiography (CTA) in a population of women both symptomatic and asymptomatic for coronary artery disease. 100 consecutive women (aged 34 - 86 years) who underwent both coronary CTA and digital mammography were included in the study. Health records were reviewed to determine the presence of cardiovascular risk factors such as hypertension, hyperlipidemia, diabetes mellitus, and smoking. Digital mammograms were reviewed for the presence and degree of BAC, graded in terms of severity and extent. Coronary CTAs were reviewed for CAD, graded based on the extent of calcified and non-calcified plaque, and the degree of major vessel stenosis. A four point grading scale was used for both coronary CTA and mammography. The overall prevalence of positive BAC and CAD in the studied population were 12% and 29%, respectively. Ten of the 12 patients with moderate or advanced BAC on mammography demonstrated moderate to severe CAD as determined by coronary CTA. For all women, the positive predictive value of BAC for CAD was 0.83 and the negative predictive value was 0.78. The presence of BAC on mammography appears to correlate with CAD as determined by coronary CTA (Spearman's rank correlation coefficient = 0.48, p<.000001). Using logistic regression, the inclusion of BAC as a feature in CAD predication significantly increased classification results (p=0.04).
