CT texture analysis of pancreatic cancer

We investigated the value of CT texture analysis (CTTA) in predicting prognosis of unresectable pancreatic cancer. Sixty patients with unresectable pancreatic cancers at presentation were enrolled for post-processing with CTTA using commercially available software (TexRAD Ltd, Cambridge, UK). The largest cross-section of the tumour on axial CT was chosen to draw a region-of-interest. CTTA parameters (mean value of positive pixels (MPP),...
