    Abstract:
    RATIONALE AND OBJECTIVES: Treatment strategies for invasive breast cancer require accurate lymphovascular invasion (LVI) predictions. This study aimed to investigate the effectiveness of delta radiomics based on dynamic contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (DCE-MRI) for assessing LVI and develop a nomogram to aid treatment decisions. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Overall, 293 patients with resectable invasive breast cancer underwent preoperative DCE-MRI. Radiomic features were extracted from pre-contrast (A0), first post-contrast (A1), and subtracted images of A0 and A1. Three radiomics models were developed using several data analyses; logistic analyses were performed to identify radiological features to predict the LVI status. A hybrid model integrating both radiological features and optimal radiomics was developed. Receiver operating characteristic analysis was employed to evaluate model performance, using the area under the curve (AUC) as a quantitative metric for discriminative ability. RESULTS: In the test set, the Radiomics-Delta model, with 17 radiomic features, had an AUC of 0.781 and accuracy of 0.705. Radiomics-A0, with 10 features, had an AUC of 0.619 and accuracy of 0.523, while Radiomics-A1, with 8 features, had an AUC of 0.715 and accuracy of 0.591. The hybrid model exhibited better performance, with an AUC of 0.868 and accuracy of 0.875, than the radiological and Radiomics-Delta models, with an AUC of 0.759 and 0.781, respectively, and accuracy of 0.773 and 0.705, respectively. CONCLUSION: Compared to Radiomics-A0 and Radiomics-A1, Radiomics-Delta demonstrated superior performance. Moreover, the hybrid model incorporating Radiomics-Delta and radiological features exhibited excellent performance in determining the LVI status in cases of invasive breast cancer.
