Performance of radiomics in the differential diagnosis of parotid tumors: a systematic review.

ABSTRACT:

Purpose

A systematic review and meta-analysis were conducted to evaluate the diagnostic precision of radiomics in the differential diagnosis of parotid tumors, considering the increasing utilization of radiomics in tumor diagnosis. Although some researchers have attempted to apply radiomics in this context, there is ongoing debate regarding its accuracy.

Methods

Databases of PubMed, Cochrane, EMBASE, and Web of Science up to May 29, 2024 were systematically searched. The quality of included primary studies was assessed using the Radiomics Quality Score (RQS) checklist. The meta-analysis was performed utilizing a bivariate mixed-effects model.

Results

A total of 39 primary studies were incorporated. The machine learning model relying on MRI radiomics for diagnosis mali
