MRI-based radiomics signature is a quantitative prognostic biomarker for nasopharyngeal carcinoma

Abstract This study aimed to develop prognosis signatures through a radiomics analysis for patients with nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) by their pretreatment diagnosis magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). A total of 208 radiomics features were extracted for each patient from a database of 303 patients....
