• Abstract summary: Two state-of-the-art neural network architectures for pre-operative segmentation were trained for the task. The best performance achieved was a 61% Dice score, and the best classification performance was about 80% balanced accuracy. The predicted segmentations can be used to accurately classify the patients into those with residual tumor, and those with gross total resection.

• Abstract: Extent of resection after surgery is one of the main prognostic factors for patients diagnosed with glioblastoma. To achieve this, accurate segmentation and classification of residual tumor from post-operative MR images is essential. The current standard method for estimating it is subject to high inter- and intra-rater variability, and an automated method for segmentation of residual tumor in early post-operative MRI could lead to a more accurate estimation of extent of resection. In this study, two state-of-the-art neural network architectures for pre-operative segmentation were trained for the task. The models were extensively validated on a multicenter dataset with nearly 1000 patients, from 12 hospitals in Europe and the United States. The best performance achieved was a 61\% Dice score, and the best classification performance was about 80\% balanced accuracy, with a demonstrated ability to generalize across hospitals. In addition, the segmentation performance of the best models was on par with human expert raters. The predicted segmentations can be used to accurately classify the patients into those with residual tumor, and those with gross total resection.

  In this study we extended the capabilities of TotalSegmentator to MR images. We trained an nnU-Net segmentation algorithm on this dataset and calculated similarity coefficients (Dice) to evaluate the model's performance. The model significantly outperformed two other publicly available segmentation models (Dice score 0.824 versus 0.762; p0.001 and 0.762 versus 0.542; p)

• Risk Classification of Brain Metastases via Radiomics, Delta-Radiomics and Machine Learning [7.165205048529115]
  We hypothesized that using radiomics and machine learning (ML), metastases at high risk for subsequent progression could be identified during follow-up prior to the onset of significant tumor growth. The classification is realized via the maximum-relevance minimal-redundancy (MRMR) technique and support vector machines (SVM) The results indicate that risk stratification of BM based on radiomics and machine learning during post-SRT follow-up is possible with good accuracy and should be further pursued to personalize and improve post-SRT follow-up.

  We propose an artificial intelligence-based solution for the aggregation and processing of multisequence neuro-Oncology MRI data. Our end-to-end framework i) classifies MRI sequences using an ensemble classifier, ii) preprocesses the data in a reproducible manner, and iv) delineates tumor tissue subtypes. It is robust to missing sequences and adopts an expert-in-the-loop approach, where the segmentation results may be manually refined by radiologists.
