Abstract
Objective
The aim of this study was to develop a cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) radiomics-based model that differentiates between conventional and unicystic ameloblastoma (AB).
Methods
In this retrospective study, CBCT images were collected from 100 patients who had ABs that were diagnosed histopathologically as conventional or unicystic AB after surgical treatment. The patients were randomly divided into training (70) and validation (30) cohorts. Radiomics features were extracted from the images, and the optimal features were incorporated into 5 models: Logistic Regression, Support Vector Machine, Linear Discriminant Analysis, Random Forest, and XGBoost for prediction of tumor type. Model performance was evaluated using the area under the curve (AUC) from receiver operating characteristic analysis, sensitivity, specificity, accuracy, calibration curves, and decision curve analysis (DCA).
Results
The 20 optimal radiomics features were incorporated into the Logistic Regression (LR) model, which exhibited the best overall performance with AUC = 0.936 (95% confidence interval [CI] = 0.877-0.996) for the training cohort and AUC = 0.929 (95% CI = 0.832-1.000) for the validation cohort. The nomogram combined the clinical features and the radiomics signature and resulted in the best predictive performance.
Conclusions
The LR model demonstrated the ability of radiomics and the nomogram to distinguish between the 2 types of AB and may have the potential to replace biopsies under noninvasive conditions.
期刊介绍:
Oral Surgery, Oral Medicine, Oral Pathology and Oral Radiology is required reading for anyone in the fields of oral surgery, oral medicine, oral pathology, oral radiology or advanced general practice dentistry. It is the only major dental journal that provides a practical and complete overview of the medical and surgical techniques of dental practice in four areas. Topics covered include such current issues as dental implants, treatment of HIV-infected patients, and evaluation and treatment of TMJ disorders. The official publication for nine societies, the Journal is recommended for initial purchase in the Brandon Hill study, Selected List of Books and Journals for the Small Medical Library.
