| Sumario: | Abstract To develop a machine learning (ML) model that predicts disease groups or autoantibodies in patients with idiopathic inflammatory myopathies (IIMs) using muscle MRI radiomics features. Twenty-two patients with dermatomyositis (DM), 14 with amyopathic dermatomyositis (ADM), 19 with polymyositis (PM) and 19 with non-IIM were enrolled. Using 2D manual segmentation, 93 original features as well as 93 local binary pattern (LBP) features were extracted from MRI (short-tau inversion recovery [STIR] imaging) of proximal limb muscles. To construct and compare ML models that predict disease groups using each set of features, dimensional reductions were performed using a reproducibility analysis by inter-reader and intra-reader correlation coefficients, collinearity analysis, and the sequential feature selection (SFS) algorithm. Models were created using the linear discriminant analysis (LDA), quadratic discriminant analysis (QDA), support vector machine (SVM), k-nearest neighbors (k-NN), random forest (RF) and multi-layer perceptron (MLP) classifiers, and validated using tenfold cross-validation repeated 100 times. We also investigated whether it was possible to construct models predicting autoantibody status. Our ML-based MRI radiomics models showed the potential to distinguish between PM, DM, and ADM. Models using LBP features provided better results, with macro-average AUC values of 0.767 and 0.714, accuracy of 61.2 and 61.4%, and macro-average recall of 61.9 and 59.8%, in the LDA and k-NN classifiers, respectively. In contrast, the accuracies of radiomics models distinguishing between non-IIM and IIM disease groups were low. A subgroup analysis showed that classification models for anti-Jo-1 and anti-ARS antibodies provided AUC values of 0.646–0.853 and 0.692–0.792, with accuracy of 71.5–81.0 and 65.8–78.3%, respectively. ML-based TA of muscle MRI may be used to predict disease groups or the autoantibody status in patients with IIM and is useful in non-invasive assessments of disease mechanisms. |
