Application of CT-based radiomics analysis in predicting and identifying of treatment-associated pneumonitis / 国际肿瘤学杂志

ABSTRACT

As a non-invasive image analysis method, radiomics can deeply explore the clinical information hidden behind medical images, and has been widely used in medicine in recent years. Consolidation immunotherapy after concurrent chemoradiotherapy has become the standard treatment for locally advanced non-small cell lung cancer. The prediction and identification of treatment-associated adverse events radiation pneumonitis (RP) and immune checkpoint inhibitor-related pneumonitis (CIP) are of vital importance for the formulation of treatment plan and the selection of subsequent treatment. CT-based radiomics analysis shows great potential in predicting and identifying RP and CIP.
