Diffusion-weighted imaging-based radiomics for predicting 1-year ischemic stroke recurrence

ABSTRACT:

Purpose

To investigate radiomics based on DWI (diffusion-weighted imaging) for predicting 1-year ischemic stroke recurrence.

Methods

A total of 1,580 ischemic stroke patients were enrolled in this retrospective study conducted from January 2018 to April 2021. Demographic and clinical characteristics were compared between recurrence and non-recurrence groups. On DWI, lesions were segmented using a 2D U-Net automatic segmentation network. Further, radiomics feature extraction was done using the segmented mask matrix on DWI and the corresponding ADC map. Additionally, radiomics features were extracted. The study participants were divided into a training cohort (n = 157, 57 recurrence patients, and 100 non-recurrence patients) and a test cohort (n = 846, 28 recurrence patient
