文摘目的:探讨基于T_(2)WI、DCE磁共振影像组学模型对Luminal型乳腺癌分子分型的预测价值。方法:回顾性收集2018年1月—2021年10月昆明医科大学第一附属医院经病理证实的140例Luminal型乳腺癌,其中Luminal A型85例、Luminal B(HER-2阴性)型55例,病例按照7:3比例随机分为训练集和测试集。分别在T_(2)WI、DCE图像逐层勾画全病灶感兴趣区并提取影像组学特征。采用t检验和最小绝对缩减和变量选择算子(least absolute shrinkage and selection operator,LASSO)对影像组学特征降维并建立组学标签,通过逻辑回归分别对两个序列影像组学特征建模、训练并验证。应用受试者工作特征(receiver operating characteristic,ROC)曲线评价模型效能,用曲线下面积(area under the curve,AUC)、灵敏度、特异度、准确度表示。结果:T_(2)WI模型训练集AUC为0.94,灵敏度、特异度、准确度为0.83、0.87、0.85,测试集AUC为0.88,灵敏度、特异度、准确度为0.77、0.94、0.83;DCE模型训练集AUC为0.63,灵敏度、特异度、准确度为0.85、0.26、0.61,测试集AUC为0.65,灵敏度、特异度、准确度为0.88、0.25、0.64。结论:基于T_(2)WI影像组学模型对LuminalA型、Luminal B(HER-2阴性)型乳腺癌分子分型的预测具有良好的效能,预测能力优于DCE影像组学模型。
