Repeatability and Reproducibility of Radiomic Features: A Systematic Review.

ABSTRACT:

Purpose

An ever-growing number of predictive models used to inform clinical decision making have included quantitative, computer-extracted imaging biomarkers, or "radiomic features." Broadly generalizable validity of radiomics-assisted models may be impeded by concerns about reproducibility. We offer a qualitative synthesis of 41 studies that specifically investigated the repeatability and reproducibility of radiomic features, derived from a systematic review of published peer-reviewed literature.

Methods and materials

The PubMed electronic database was searched using combinations of the broad Haynes and Ingui filters along with a set of text words specific to cancer, radiomics (including texture analyses), reproducibility, and repeatability. This review has been reported in
