ABSTRACT
Purpose:
Our objective was to train machine-learning algorithms on hyperpolarized He 3 magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) datasets to generate models of accelerated lung function decline in participants with and without chronic-obstructive-pulmonary-disease. We hypothesized that hyperpolarized gas MRI ventilation, machine-learning, and multivariate modeling could be combined to predict clinically-relevant changes in forced expiratory volume in 1 s ( FEV 1 ) across 3 years.Approach:
Hyperpolarized He 3 MRI was acquired using a coronal Cartesian fast gradient recalled echo sequence with a partial echo and segmented using a k-means clustering algorithm. A maximum entropy mask was used to generate a region-of-interest for texture feature extraction using a custom-developed algorithm and the PyRadiomics platform. The principal component and Boruta analyses were used for feature selection. Ensemble-based and single machine-learning classifiers were evaluated using area-under-the-receiver-operator-curve and sensitivity-specificity analysis.Results:
We evaluated 88 ex-smoker participants with 31 ± 7 months follow-up data, 57 of whom (22 females/35 males, 70 ± 9 years) had negligible changes in FEV 1 and 31 participants (7 females/24 males, 68 ± 9 years) with worsening FEV 1 ≥ 60 mL / year . In addition, 3/88 ex-smokers reported a change in smoking status. We generated machine-learning models to predict FEV 1 decline using demographics, spirometry, and texture features, with the later yielding the highest classification accuracy of 81%. The combined model (trained on all available measurements) achieved the overall best classification accuracy of 82%; however, it was not significantly different from the model trained on MRI texture features alone.Conclusion:
For the first time, we have employed hyperpolarized He 3 MRI ventilation texture features and machine-learning to identify ex-smokers with accelerated decline in FEV 1 with 82% accuracy.
