A Deep Learning Radiomics Nomogram to Predict Response to Neoadjuvant Chemotherapy for Locally Advanced Cervical Cancer: A Two-Center Study.

ABSTRACT: Purpose: This study aimed to establish a deep learning radiomics nomogram (DLRN) based on multiparametric MR images for predicting the response to neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NACT) in patients with locally advanced cervical cancer (LACC). Methods: Patients with LACC (FIGO stage IB-IIIB) who underwent preoperative NACT were enrolled from center 1 (220 cases) and center 2 (independent external validation dataset, 65 cases). Handcrafted and deep learning-based radiomics features were extracted from T2WI, DWI and contrast-enhanced (CE)-T1WI, and radiomics signatures were built based on the optimal features. Two types of radiomics signatures and clinical features were integrated into the DLRN for prediction. The AUC, calibration curve and decision curve analysis (DCA) were employed
