Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:<sec id="sec1"><title>Purpose</title><p>This study compares phantom-based variability of extracted radiomics features from scans on a photon counting CT (PCCT) and an experimental animal PET/CT-scanner (Albira II) to investigate the potential of radiomics for translation from animal models to human scans. While oncological basic research in animal PET/CT has allowed an intrinsic comparison between PET and CT, but no 1:1 translation to a human CT scanner due to resolution and noise limitations, Radiomics as a statistical and thus scale-independent method can potentially close the critical gap.</p></sec><sec id="sec2"><title>Methods</title><p>Two phantoms were scanned on a PCCT and animal PET/CT-scanner with different scan parameters and then the radiomics parameters were extracted. A Principal Component Analysis (PCA) was conducted. To overcome the limitation of a small dataset, a data augmentation technique was applied. A Ridge Classifier was trained and a Feature Importance- and Cluster analysis was performed.</p></sec><sec id="sec3"><title>Results</title><p>PCA and Cluster Analysis shows a clear differentiation between phantom types while emphasizing the comparability of both scanners. The Ridge Classifier exhibited a strong training performance with 93% accuracy, but faced challenges in generalization with a test accuracy of 62%.</p></sec><sec id="sec4"><title>Conclusion</title><p>These results show that radiomics has great potential as a translational tool between animal models and human routine diagnostics, especially using the novel photon counting technique. This is another crucial step towards integration of radiomics analysis into clinical practice.</p></sec>
