OBJECTIVES: To investigate the value of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) radiomics for distinguishing solitary fibrous tumor (SFT) from schwannoma in the orbit.
MATERIALS AND METHODS: A total of 140 patients from two institutions were retrospectively included. All patients from institution 1 were randomized into a training cohort (n = 69) and a validation cohort (n = 35), and patients from institution 2 were used as an external testing cohort (n = 36). One hundred and six features were extracted from T2-weighted imaging (T2WI) and contrast-enhanced T1-weighted imaging (CET1WI). A radiomics model was built for each sequence using least absolute shrinkage and selection operator logistic regression, and radiomics scores were calculated. A combined model was constructed and displayed as a radiomics nomogram. Two radiologists jointly assessed tumor category based on MRI findings. The performances of the radiomics models and visual assessment were compared via area under the curve (AUC).
RESULTS: The performances of the radiomics nomogram combining T2WI and CET1WI radiomics scores were superior to those of the pooled readers in the training (AUC 0.986 vs. 0.807, p < 0.001), validation (AUC 0.989 vs. 0.788, p = 0.009), and the testing (AUC 0.903 vs. 0.792, p = 0.093), although significant difference was not found in the testing cohort. Decision curve analysis demonstrated that the radiomics nomogram had better clinical utility than visual assessment.
CONCLUSION: MRI radiomics nomogram can be used for distinguishing between orbital SFT and schwannoma, which may help tumor management by clinicians.
CLINICAL RELEVANCE STATEMENT: It is of great importance and challenging for distinguishing solitary fibrous tumor from schwannoma in the orbit. In the present study, an MRI-based radiomics nomogram were developed and independently validated, which could help the discrimination of the two entities.
KEY POINTS: • It is challenging to differentiate solitary fibrous tumor from schwannoma in the orbit due to similar clinical and image features. • A radiomics nomogram based on T2-weighted imaging and contrast-enhanced T1-weighted imaging has advantages over radiologists. • Radiomics can provide a non-invasive diagnostic tool for differentiating between the two entities.
