Radiomics of skeletal muscle helps to predict gastrointestinal toxicity in locally advanced rectal cancer patients receiving neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy

Radiomics of skeletal muscle helps to predict gastrointestinal toxicity in locally advanced rectal cancer patients receiving neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy

Background: The skeletal muscle index (SMI) can serve as a surrogate for a patient’s nutritional status, which is associated with treatment toxicity. This study aims to investigate the potential of baseline skeletal muscle radiomics features to predict gastrointestinal toxicity of neoadjuvant chemor...
