A Deep Learning Radiomics Analysis for Survival Prediction in Esophageal Cancer.

ABSTRACT: The purpose of this study was to explore the deep learning radiomics (DLR) nomogram to predict the overall 3-year survival after chemoradiotherapy in patients with esophageal cancer. The 154 patients' data were used in this study, which was randomly split into training (116) and validation (38) data. Deep learning and handcrafted features were obtained via the preprocessing diagnostic computed tomography images. The selected features were used to construct radiomics signatures through the least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) regression, maximizing relevance while minimizing redundancy. The DLR signature, handcrafted features' radiomics (HCR) signature, and clinical factors were incorporated to develop a DLR nomogram. The DLR nomogram was evaluated in terms of discriminat
