Progress in the application of peritumoral radiomics in breast cancer research
Breast cancer has become the most common type of cancer that threatens women's health worldwide.Radiomics provides intrinsic heterogeneity information of tumors that cannot be recognized by traditional imaging examinations and human eyes through in-depth excavation and analysis of deep-seated information of medical images.However,previous studies mostly focused on tumor ontology features,ignoring the role of peritumoral region features in the occurrence,development and metastasis of breast cancer.Therefore,more and more studies have begun to explore the potential application value of peritumoral radiomics features.This article will centre on the application of peritumoral radiomics based on mammography,magnetic resonance imaging and ultrasound imaging in the differential diagnosis of benign and malignant breast cancer,molecular typing prediction,evaluation of therapeutic efficacy,lymph node metastasis and prognosis prediction of patients,expound the existing limitations,and look forward to its future development,provide ideas for deeper research,expect to promote the further development of precision medicine for breast cancer.
