- Abstract
Objectives: Exploring the value of adding correlation analysis (radiomic features (RFs) of pelvic metastatic lymph nodes and primary lesions) to screen RFs of primary lesions in the feature selection process of establishing prediction model. Methods: A total of 394 prostate cancer (PCa) patients (263 in the training group, 74 in the internal validation group and 57 in the external validation group) from two tertiary hospitals were included in the study. The cases with pelvic lymph node metastasis (PLNM) positive in the training group were diagnosed by biopsy or MRI with a short-axis diameter ≥ 1.5 cm, PLNM-negative cases in the training group and all cases in validation group were underwent both radical prostatectomy (RP) and extended pelvic lymph node dissection (ePLND). The RFs of PLNM-negative lesion and PLNM-positive tissues including primary lesions and their metastatic lymph nodes (MLNs) in the training group were extracted from T2WI and apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) map to build the following two models by fivefold cross-validation: the lesion model, established according to the primary lesion RFs selected by t tests and absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO); the lesion-correlation model, established according to the primary lesion RFs selected by Pearson correlation analysis (RFs of primary lesions and their MLNs, correlation coefficient > 0.9), t test and LASSO. Finally, we compared the performance of these two models in predicting PLNM. Results: The AUC and the DeLong test of AUC in the lesion model and lesion-correlation model were as follows: training groups (0.8053, 0.8466, p = 0.0002), internal validation group (0.7321, 0.8268, p = 0.0429), and external validation group (0.6445, 0.7874, p = 0.0431), respectively. Conclusion: The lesion-correlation model established by features of primary tumors correlated with MLNs has more advantages than the lesion model in predicting PLNM.
