ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND:
This study aimed to establish a dedicated deep-learning model (DLM) on routine magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) data to investigate DLM performance in automated detection and segmentation of meningiomas in comparison to manual segmentations. Another purpose of our work was to develop a radiomics model based on the radiomics features extracted from automatic segmentation to differentiate low- and high-grade meningiomas before surgery. MATERIALS A total of 326 patients with pathologically confirmed meningiomas were enrolled. Samples were randomly split with a 622 ratio to the training set, validation set, and test set. Volumetric regions of interest (VOIs) were manually drawn on each slice using the ITK-SNAP software. An automatic segmentation model based on SegResNet was developed for the meningioma segmentation. Segmentation performance was evaluated by dice coefficient and 95% Hausdorff distance. Intra class correlation (ICC) analysis was applied to assess the agreement between radiomic features from manual and automatic segmentations. Radiomics features derived from automatic segmentation were extracted by pyradiomics. After feature selection, a model for meningiomas grading was built.RESULTS:
The DLM detected meningiomas in all cases. For automatic segmentation, the mean dice coefficient and 95% Hausdorff distance were 0.881 (95% CI 0.851-0.981) and 2.016 (95% CI1.439-3.158) in the test set, respectively. Features extracted on manual and automatic segmentation are comparable the average ICC value was 0.804 (range, 0.636-0.933). Features extracted on manual and automatic segmentation are comparable the average ICC value was 0.804 (range, 0.636-0.933). For meningioma classification, the radiomics model based on automatic segmentation performed well in grading meningiomas, yielding a sensitivity, specificity, accuracy, and area under the curve (AUC) of 0.778 (95% CI 0.701-0.856), 0.860 (95% CI 0.722-0.908), 0.848 (95% CI 0.715-0.903) and 0.842 (95% CI 0.807-0.895) in the test set, respectively.CONCLUSIONS:
The DLM yielded favorable automated detection and segmentation of meningioma and can help deploy radiomics for preoperative meningioma differentiation in clinical practice.Palavras-chave
