The study aimed to using multiparametric MRI radiomics to predict glioma tumor residuals (TRFET over MR) derived from incongruent [18F]fluoroethyl-L-tyrosine ([18F]FET) PET/MR imaging.One hundred ten patients with gliomas who underwent [18F]FET PET/MR scanning were retrospectively analyzed. The TRFET over MR was identified by the discrepancy-PET that the extent of resection (EOR) based on MRI subtracted the biological tumor volume on PET images. The MRI parameters and radiomics features were extracted based on EOR and selected by the least absolute shrinkage and selection operator to construct radiomics score (Rad-score). The correlation network analysis of all features was analyzed by Spearman's correlation tests. The methods for evaluating the clinical usefulness consisted of the receiver operating characteristic curve, the calibration curve, and decision curve analysis.The Rad-score of the patients with the TRFET over MR was significantly higher than those with the non TRFET over MR (p < 0.001). The Rad-score was significantly correlated with the discrepancy-PET (r = 0.72, p < 0.001), Ki-67 level (r = 0.76, p < 0.001), and epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) of gliomas (r = 0.75, p < 0.001), respectively. Moreover, there was a difference of the correlation network analysis between the TRPET over MR group and non TRFET over MR group. The nomogram combing Rad-score and clinical features had the greatest performance in predicting TRFET over MR (AUC = 0.90/0.87, training/testing). There was a significant difference in prognosis (median OS, 17 m vs. 43 m) between patients with TRFET over MR and non TRFET over MR based on nomogram prediction (p < 0.001).The nomogram based on MRI radiomics would predict gliomas tumor residuals caused by the absence of 18F-PET PET examination and adjust EOR to improve prognosis.© 2023.
