ABSTRACT
RATIONALE AND OBJECTIVE:
Accurate differentiation between benign and malignant cystic renal masses (CRMs) is challenging in clinical practice. This study aimed to develop MRI-based machine learning models for differentiating between benign and malignant CRMs and compare the best-performing model with the Bosniak classification, version 2019 (BC, version 2019).METHODS:
Between 2009 and 2021, consecutive surgery-proven CRM patients with renal MRI were enrolled in this multicenter study. Models were constructed to differentiate between benign and malignant CRMs using logistic regression (LR), random forest (RF), and support vector machine (SVM) algorithms, respectively. Meanwhile, two radiologists classified CRMs into I-IV categories according to the BC, version 2019 in consensus in the test set. A subgroup analysis was conducted to investigate the performance of the best-performing model in complicated CRMs (II-IV lesions in the test set). The performances of models and BC, version 2019 were evaluated using the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC). Performance was statistically compared between the best-performing model and the BC, version 2019.RESULTS:
278 and 48 patients were assigned to the training and test sets, respectively. In the test set, the AUC and accuracy of the LR model, the RF model, the SVM model, and the BC, version 2019 were 0.884 and 75.0%, 0.907 and 83.3%, 0.814 and 72.9%, and 0.893 and 81.2%, respectively. Neither the AUC nor the accuracy of the RF model that performed best were significantly different from the BC, version 2019 (P = 0.780, P = 0.065). The RF model achieved an AUC and accuracy of 0.880 and 81.0% in complicated CRMs.CONCLUSIONS:
The MRI-based RF model can accurately differentiate between benign and malignant CRMs with comparable performance to the BC, version 2019, and has good performance in complicated CRMs, which may facilitate treatment decision-making and is less affected by interobserver disagreements.
