A radiomics model based on aortic computed tomography angiography: the impact on predicting the prognosis of patients with aortic intramural hematoma (IMH).

ABSTRACT:

Background

The prognosis of aortic intramural hematoma (IMH) is unpredictable, but computed tomography angiography (CTA) plays an important role of high diagnostic performance in the initial diagnosis and during follow-up of patients. In this study, we investigated the value of a radiomics model based on aortic CTA for predicting the prognosis of patients with medically treated IMH.

Method

A total of 120 patients with IMH were enrolled in this study. The follow-up duration ranged from 32 to 1,346 days (median 232 days). Progression of these patients was classified as follows: destabilization, which refers to deterioration in the aortic condition, including significant increases in the thickness of the IMH, the progression of IMH to a penetrating aortic ulcer (PAU), aortic di
