ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES:
This study identified a clinically significant subset of patients with glioma with tumor outside of contrast enhancement present at autopsy and subsequently developed a method for detecting nonenhancing tumor using radio-pathomic mapping. We tested the hypothesis that autopsy-based radio-pathomic tumor probability maps would be able to noninvasively identify areas of infiltrative tumor beyond traditional imaging signatures.METHODS:
A total of 159 tissue samples from 65 subjects were aligned to MRI acquired nearest to death for this retrospective study. Demographic and survival characteristics for patients with and without tumor beyond the contrast-enhancing margin were computed. An ensemble algorithm was used to predict pixelwise tumor presence from pathological annotations using segmented cellularity (Cell), extracellular fluid, and cytoplasm density as input (6 train/3 test subjects). A second level of ensemble algorithms was used to predict voxelwise Cell, extracellular fluid, and cytoplasm on the full data set (43 train/22 test subjects) using 5-by-5 voxel tiles from T1, T1 + C, fluid-attenuated inversion recovery, and apparent diffusion coefficient as input. The models were then combined to generate noninvasive whole brain maps of tumor probability.RESULTS:
Tumor outside of contrast was identified in 41.5% of patients, who showed worse survival outcomes (hazard ratio = 3.90, P < .001). Tumor probability maps reliably tracked nonenhancing tumor on a range of local and external unseen data, identifying tumor outside of contrast in 69% of presurgical cases that also showed reduced survival outcomes (hazard ratio = 1.67, P = .027).CONCLUSION:
This study developed a multistage model for mapping gliomas using autopsy tissue samples as ground truth, which was able to identify regions of tumor beyond traditional imaging signatures.
