Abstract
BACKGROUND: Although lumbar bone marrow fat fraction (BMFF) has been demonstrated to be predictive of osteoporosis, its utility is limited by the requirement of manual segmentation. Additionally, quantitative features beyond simple BMFF average remain to be explored. In this study, we developed a fully automated radiomic pipeline using deep learning-based segmentation to detect osteoporosis and abnormal bone density (ABD) using a <20 s modified Dixon (mDixon) sequence. METHODS: In total, 222 subjects underwent quantitative computed tomography (QCT) and lower back magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Bone mineral density (BMD) were extracted from L1-L3 using QCT as the reference standard; 206 subjects (48.8±14.9 years old, 140 females) were included in the final analysis, and were divided temporally into the training/validation set (142/64 subjects). A deep-learning network was developed to perform automated segmentation. Radiomic models were built using the same training set to predict ABD and osteoporosis using the mDixon maps. The performance was evaluated using the temporal validation set comprised of 64 subjects, along with the automated segmentation. Additional 25 subjects (56.1±8.8 years, 14 females) from another site and a different scanner vendor was included as independent validation to evaluate the performance of the pipeline. RESULTS: The automated segmentation achieved an outstanding mean dice coefficient of 0.912±0.062 compared to manual in the temporal validation. Task-based evaluation was performed in the temporal validation set, for predicting ABD and osteoporosis, the area under the curve, sensitivity, specificity, and accuracy were 0.925/0.899, 0.923/0.667, 0.789/0.873, 0.844/0.844, respectively. These values were comparable to that of manual segmentation. External validation (cross-vendor) was also performed; the area under the curve, sensitivity, specificity, and accuracy were 0.688/0.913, 0.786/0.857, 0.545/0.944, 0.680/0.920 for ABD and osteoporosis prediction, respectively. CONCLUSIONS: Our work is the first attempt using radiomics to predict osteoporosis with BMFF map, and the deep-learning based segmentation will further facilitate the clinical utility of the pipeline as a screening tool for early detection of ABD. 2022 Quantitative Imaging in Medicine and Surgery.
