Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Gamma Knife radiosurgery (GKRS) is a safe and effective treatment modality with a long-term tumor control rate over 90% for vestibular schwannoma (VS). However, numerous tumors may undergo a transient pseudoprogression during 6-18 months after GKRS followed by a long-term volume reduction. The aim of this study is to determine whether the radiomics analysis based on preradiosurgical MRI data could predict the pseudoprogression and long-term outcome of VS after GKRS. MATERIALS AND METHODS: A longitudinal dataset of patients with VS treated by single GKRS were retrospectively collected. Overall 336 patients with no previous craniotomy for tumor removal and a median of 65-month follow-up period after radiosurgery were finally included in this study. In total 1763 radiomic features were extracted from the multiparameteric MRI data before GKRS followed by the machine-learning classification. RESULTS: We constructed a two-level machine-learning model to predict the long-term outcome and the occurrence of transient pseudoprogression after GKRS separately. The prediction of long-term outcome achieved an accuracy of 88.4% based on five radiomic features describing the variation of T2-weighted intensity and inhomogeneity of contrast enhancement in tumor. The prediction of transient pseudoprogression achieved an accuracy of 85.0% based on another five radiomic features associated with the inhomogeneous hypointensity pattern of contrast enhancement and the variation of T2-weighted intensity. CONCLUSION: The proposed machine-learning model based on the preradiosurgical MR radiomics provides a potential to predict the pseudoprogression and long-term outcome of VS after GKRS, which can benefit the treatment strategy in clinical practice.
