Radiomics-guided therapy for bladder cancer: Using an optimal biomarker approach to determine extent of bladder cancer invasion from t2-weighted magnetic resonance images

Current clinical staging methods are unable to accurately define the extent of invasion of localized bladder cancer, which affects the proper use of systemic therapy, surgery, and radiation. Our purpose was to test a novel radiomics approach to identify optimal imaging biomarkers from T2-weighted magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scans that accurately classify localized bladder cancer into 2 tumor stage groups (≤T2 vs >T2) at both the patient...
