    Abstract:
    BACKGROUND: Multiparametric MRI (mp-MRI) combined with machine-aided approaches have shown high accuracy and sensitivity in prostate cancer (PCa) diagnosis. However, radiomics-based analysis has not been thoroughly compared with Prostate Imaging and Reporting and Data System version 2 (PI-RADS v2) scores. PURPOSE: To develop and validate a radiomics-based model for differentiating PCa and assessing its aggressiveness compared with PI-RADS v2 scores. STUDY TYPE: Retrospective. POPULATION: In all, 182 patients with biopsy-proven PCa and 199 patients with a biopsy-proven absence of cancer were enrolled in our study. FIELD STRENGTH/SEQUENCE: Conventional and diffusion-weighted MR images (b values = 0, 1000 sec/mm2 ) were acquired on a 3.0T MR scanner. ASSESSMENT: A total of 396 features and 385 features were extracted from apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) images and T2 WI, respectively. A predictive model was constructed for differentiating PCa from non-PCa and high-grade from low-grade PCa. The diagnostic performance of each radiomics-based model was compared with that of the PI-RADS v2 scores. STATISTICAL TESTS: A radiomics-based predictive model was constructed by logistic regression analysis. 70% of the patients were assigned to the training group, and the remaining were assigned to the validation group. The diagnostic efficacy was analyzed with receiver operating characteristic (ROC) in both the training and validation groups. RESULTS: For PCa versus non-PCa, the validation model had an area under the ROC curve (AUC) of 0.985, 0.982, and 0.999 with T2 WI, ADC, and T2 WI&ADC features, respectively. For low-grade versus high-grade PCa, the validation model had an AUC of 0.865, 0.888, and 0.93 with T2 WI, ADC, and T2 WI&ADC features, respectively. PI-RADS v2 had an AUC of 0.867 in differentiating PCa from non-PCa and an AUC of 0.763 in differentiating high-grade from low-grade PCa. DATA CONCLUSION: Both the T2 WI- and ADC-based radiomics models showed high diagnostic efficacy and outperformed the PI-RADS v2 scores in distinguishing cancerous vs. noncancerous prostate tissue and high-grade vs. low-grade PCa.
