Abstract
Purpose: In primary central nervous system lymphoma (PCNSL), B-cell lymphoma-6 (BCL-6) is an unfavorable prognostic biomarker. We aim to non-invasively detect BCL-6 overexpression in PCNSL patients using multiparametric MRI and machine learning techniques.
Methods: 65 patients (101 lesions) with primary central nervous system lymphoma (PCNSL) diagnosed from January 2013 to July 2023, and all patients were randomly divided into a training set and a validation set according to a ratio of 8 to 2. ADC map derived from DWI (b = 0/1000 s/mm2), fast spin echo T2WI, T2FLAIR, were collected at 3.0 T. A total of 2234 radiomics features from the tumor segmentation area were extracted and LASSO were used to select features. Logistic regression (LR), Naive bayes (NB), Support vector machine (SVM), K-nearest Neighbor, (KNN) and Multilayer Perceptron (MLP), were used for machine learning, and sensitivity, specificity, accuracy F1-score, and area under the curve (AUC) was used to evaluate the detection performance of five classifiers, 6 groups with combinations of different sequences were fitted to 5 classifiers, and optimal classifier was obtained.
Results: BCL-6 status could be identified to varying degrees with 30 models based on radiomics, and model performance could be improved by combining different sequences and classifiers. Support vector machine (SVM) combined with three sequence group had the largest AUC (0.95) in training set and satisfactory AUC (0.87) in validation set.
Conclusion: Multiparametric MRI based machine learning is promising in detecting BCL-6 overexpression.
期刊介绍：
Neuroradiology aims to provide state-of-the-art medical and scientific information in the fields of Neuroradiology, Neurosciences, Neurology, Psychiatry, Neurosurgery, and related medical specialities. Neuroradiology as the official Journal of the European Society of Neuroradiology receives submissions from all parts of the world and publishes peer-reviewed original research, comprehensive reviews, educational papers, opinion papers, and short reports on exceptional clinical observations and new technical developments in the field of Neuroimaging and Neurointervention. The journal has subsections for Diagnostic and Interventional Neuroradiology, Advanced Neuroimaging, Paediatric Neuroradiology, Head-Neck-ENT Radiology, Spine Neuroradiology, and for submissions from Japan. Neuroradiology aims to provide new knowledge about and insights into the function and pathology of the human nervous system that may help to better diagnose and treat nervous system diseases. Neuroradiology is a member of the Committee on Publication Ethics (COPE) and follows the COPE core practices. Neuroradiology prefers articles that are free of bias, self-critical regarding limitations, transparent and clear in describing study participants, methods, and statistics, and short in presenting results. Before peer-review all submissions are automatically checked by iThenticate to assess for potential overlap in prior publication.
