Sumario: | This study aimed to explore the potential of multi-phase dynamic contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (DCE-MRI) radiomics for classifying breast cancer surrogate subtypes. This retrospective study analyzed 360 breast cancers from 319 patients who underwent pretreatment DCE-MRI between January 2015 and January 2019. The cohort consisted of 33 triple-negative, 26 human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)-positive, 109 luminal A-like, 144 luminal B-like HER2-negative, and 48 luminal B-like HER2-positive lesions. A total of 1781 radiomic features were extracted from manually segmented breast cancers in each DCE-MRI sequence. The model was internally validated and selected using ten times repeated five-fold cross-validation on the primary cohort, with further evaluation using a validation cohort. The most successful models were logistic regression models applied to the third post-contrast subtraction images. These models exhibited the highest area under the curve (AUC) for discriminating between luminal A like vs. others (AUC: 0.78), luminal B-like HER2 negative vs. others (AUC: 0.57), luminal B-like HER2 positive vs. others (AUC: 0.60), HER2 positive vs. others (AUC: 0.81), and triple negative vs. others (AUC: 0.83). In conclusion, the radiomic features extracted from multi-phase DCE-MRI are promising for discriminating between breast cancer subtypes. The best-performing models relied on tissue changes observed during the mid-stage of the imaging process. |
