description | Abstract Background To develop and assess the performance of machine learning (ML) models based on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) radiomics analysis for knee osteoarthritis (KOA) diagnosis. Methods This retrospective study analysed 148 consecutive patients (72 with KOA and 76 without) with available MRI image data, where radiomics features in cartilage portions were extracted and then filtered. Intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC) was calculated to quantify the reproducibility of features, and a threshold of 0.8 was set. The training and validation cohorts consisted of 117 and 31 cases, respectively. Least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) regression method was employed for feature selection. The ML classifiers were logistic regression (LR), K-nearest neighbour (KNN) and support vector machine (SVM). In each algorithm, ten models derived from all available planes of three joint compartments and their various combinations were, respectively, constructed for comparative analysis. The performance of classifiers was mainly evaluated and compared by receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analysis. Results All models achieved satisfying performances, especially the Final model, where accuracy and area under ROC curve (AUC) of LR classifier were 0.968, 0.983 (0.957–1.000, 95% CI) in the validation cohort, and 0.940, 0.984 (0.969–0.995, 95% CI) in the training cohort, respectively. Conclusion The MRI radiomics analysis represented promising performance in noninvasive and preoperative KOA diagnosis, especially when considering all available planes of all three compartments of knee joints. |
