Amide proton transfer-weighted habitat radiomics: a superior approach for preoperative prediction of lymphovascular space invasion in cervical cancer by Jie Li, Yatong Li, Lianze Du, Qinghai Yuan, Qinghe Han

“…BackgroundNon-invasive preoperative prediction of lymphovascular space invasion (LVSI) in cervical cancer (CC) is clinically important for guiding surgical planning and adjuvant therapy, while avoiding the risks associated with invasive procedures. However, current studies using amide proton transfer-weighted (APTw) MRI for LVSI prediction typically analyze only the mean values from a limited number of intratumoral regions of interest (ROIs), which fails to fully capture tumor heterogeneity. …”
