Radiomics Model for Frontotemporal Dementia Diagnosis Using T1-Weighted MRI.

ABSTRACT: Radiomics has been proposed as a useful approach to extrapolate novel morphological and textural information from brain Magnetic resonance images (MRI). Radiomics analysis has shown unique potential in the diagnostic work-up and in the follow-up of patients suffering from neurodegenerative diseases. However, the potentiality of this technique in distinguishing frontotemporal dementia (FTD) subtypes has so far not been investigated. In this study, we explored the usefulness of radiomic features in differentiating FTD subtypes, namely, the behavioral variant of FTD (bvFTD), the non-fluent and/or agrammatic (PNFA) and semantic (svPPA) variants of a primary progressive aphasia (PPA). Classification analyses were performed on 3 Tesla T1-weighted images obtained from the Frontotemporal Lobar Deg
