Radiomics prediction of surgery in ulcerative colitis refractory to medical treatment.

ABSTRACT:

Background

The surgeries in drug-resistant ulcerative colitis are determined by complex factors. This study evaluated the predictive performance of radiomics analysis on the basis of whether patients with ulcerative colitis in hospital were in the surgical or medical treatment group by discharge from hospital.

Methods

This single-center retrospective cohort study used CT at admission of patients with US admitted from 2015 to 2022. The target of prediction was whether the patient would undergo surgery by the time of discharge. Radiomics features were extracted using the rectal wall at the level of the tailbone tip of the CT as the region of interest. CT data were randomly classified into a training cohort and a validation cohort, and LASSO regression was performed using the t
