Description
Summary:Purpose The aim of this study is to investigate the role of [ 68 Ga]Ga-PSMA-11 PET radiomics for the prediction of post-surgical International Society of Urological Pathology ( PS ISUP) grade in primary prostate cancer (PCa). Methods This retrospective study included 47 PCa patients who underwent [ 68 Ga]Ga-PSMA-11 PET at IRCCS San Raffaele Scientific Institute before radical prostatectomy. The whole prostate was manually contoured on PET images and 103 image biomarker standardization initiative (IBSI)-compliant radiomic features (RFs) were extracted. Features were then selected using the minimum redundancy maximum relevance algorithm and a combination of the 4 most relevant RFs was used to train 12 radiomics machine learning models for the prediction of PS ISUP grade: ISUP ≥ 4 vs ISUP  0.05). Conclusion These findings support the role of [ 68 Ga]Ga-PSMA-11 PET radiomics for the accurate and non-invasive prediction of PS ISUP grade.
