ABSTRACT
INTRODUCTION:
Machine learning (ML) shows promise for the automation of routine tasks related to the treatment of pediatric low-grade gliomas (pLGG) such as tumor grading, typing, and segmentation. Moreover, it has been shown that ML can identify crucial information from medical images that is otherwise currently unattainable. For example, ML appears to be capable of preoperatively identifying the underlying genetic status of pLGG.METHODS:
In this chapter, we reviewed, to the best of our knowledge, all published works that have used ML techniques for the imaging-based evaluation of pLGGs. Additionally, we aimed to provide some context on what it will take to go from the exploratory studies we reviewed to clinically deployed models.RESULTS:
Multiple studies have demonstrated that ML can accurately grade, type, and segment and detect the genetic status of pLGGs. We compared the approaches used between the different studies and observed a high degree of variability throughout the methodologies. Standardization and cooperation between the numerous groups working on these approaches will be key to accelerating the clinical deployment of these models.CONCLUSION:
The studies reviewed in this chapter detail the potential for ML techniques to transform the treatment of pLGG. However, there are still challenges that need to be overcome prior to clinical deployment.
