Technical Note: Extension of CERR for computational radiomics: A comprehensive MATLAB platform for reproducible radiomics research.

ABSTRACT: Radiomics is a growing field of image quantitation, but it lacks stable and high-quality software systems. We extended the capabilities of the Computational Environment for Radiological Research (CERR) to create a comprehensive, open-source, MATLAB-based software platform with an emphasis on reproducibility, speed, and clinical integration of radiomics research. The radiomics tools in CERR were designed specifically to quantitate medical images in combination with CERR's core functionalities of radiological data import, transformation, management, image segmentation, and visualization. CERR allows for batch calculation and visualization of radiomics features, and provides a user-friendly data structure for radiomics metadata. All radiomics computations are vectorized for speed.
