At the SPIE Medical Imaging Conference from February 16-21 in San Diego, Jocelyn Hoye (PhD’20, adviser Dr. Ehsan Samei) and her co-authors (Drs. Justin Solomon and Dr. Ehsan Samei) received an Honorable Mention Poster Award for their conference poster titled “Quantifying truth-based change in radiomics features between CT imaging conditions.” The purpose of this study was to develop a method to quantify the minimum detectable change in radiomics features based on measured radiomics features acquired from variable CT scanner acquisition settings. The work was motivated by the fact that oftentimes cancer patients are imaged for follow-up after treatment on different CT scanners and with different acquisition protocol attributes and it is important understand what change in quantitative (radiomics) features extracted from those images can reliably indicate a true change in the patient’s cancer.
