Abstract

Radiomic features, numeric values extracted from a region of interest (ROI) in medical images, can be used to train prognostic models for various types of cancer. However, in locally advanced diseases, more than one lesion may be present. Using the information contained in multiple regions increases the complexity and necessitates additional processing. Here, we tested seven strategies of handling multiple regions in radiomic-based regularized Cox regression for predicting metastasis-free survival using a cohort of 115 non-small cell lung cancer patients. We have found that using all ROIs to fit the model allowed for better results than using only the largest ROI, achieving c-indexes of 0.617 and 0.581, respectively.
