What is Postoperative Radiotherapy Improved Disease-Free Survival for Low-grade Endometrial Stromal Sarcoma about?
Purpose/Objective(s): Radiation with concurrent chemotherapy forms the cornerstone of management for International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics (FIGO) stage IB2 to IVA uterine cervix carcinoma disease. Radiomics has emerged as a promising tool for imaging biomarker discovery in era of precision medicine. We explored potential of Radiomics alone and in combination with diffusion imaging derived quantitative parameter namely apparent diffusion co-efficient (ADC) using supervised classification algorithms in predicting outcomes and prognosis. Materials/Methods: Retrospective evaluation of the imaging was done for a study cohort of 52 patients of squamous cell carcinoma of uterine cervix who were candidates for radical treatment with chemo radiation. One radiologist having 6 years of experience manually drew the region of interest on the tumor for purposes of segmentation and textural analysis. ADC values were calculated from conventional from the darkest part of the tumor, both before (labelled ADC1) and post treatment (labelled ADC2) with chemo radiation. The segmented tumor was validated independently by two radiologists having 30 years of experience each. A total of 851
