Overview of MRI-based radiomics in breast cancer diagnosis and treatment
Breast cancer has become the world's highest incidence and mortality of female malignant tumors. Providing accurate and efficient diagnosis,risk stratification and timely adjustment of treatment strategies is an important step in achieving precision medicine for breast cancer. Radiomics is a new and high-throughput image quantitative analysis method,which aims to extract mineable high-dimensional data from clinical medical images. Currently,various studies from different fields of imaging medicine have shown the potential of radiomics in improving clinical decision-making of breast cancer. This paper will introduce the application of MRI radiomics in breast cancer differentiation,molecular subtyping prediction,efficacy evaluation of neoadjuvant chemotherapy,status of axillary lymph nodes,Ki-67 expression,prognosis assessment and recurrence risk,and discuss the limitations and challenges of current radiomics,in order to provide new ideas for optimizing treatment decisions and promoting the development of precision medicine for breast cancer.
