Breast cancer Ki-67 expression prediction by digital breast tomosynthesis radiomics features

Alberto Tagliafico September 2019

Despite the encouraging results, more studies are needed in order to further evaluate these preliminary findings and to find to what extent radiomics and AI approaches can be integrated in clinical practice in a useful and reliable strategy [1]. I think that several issues reduce the application of radiomics approaches in clinical practice: the lack of knowledge of its basic

Why radiomics research does not translate to clinical practice: evaluation of literature using RQS and TRIPOD

Daniel Pinto dos Santos July 2019

Over the last few years, the number of studies published using quantitative imaging biomarkers to classify or predict pathologies has steadily increased. As of today, a quick PubMed search for radiomics, imaging biomarkers or radiogenomics reveals well over 4,000 articles. However, somewhat surprisingly, given this amount of published research, outside of academic literature there is no widespread clinical application of
