Machine Learning Classification of Mild Traumatic Brain Injury Using Whole-Brain Functional Activity: A Radiomics Analysis
Objectives. To investigate the classification performance of support vector machine in mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI) from normal controls. Methods. Twenty-four mTBI patients (15 males and 9 females; mean age, 38.88±13.33 years) and 24 age and sex-matched normal controls (13 males and 11 females...

| Sumario: | Objectives. To investigate the classification performance of support vector machine in mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI) from normal controls. Methods. Twenty-four mTBI patients (15 males and 9 females; mean age, 38.88±13.33 years) and 24 age and sex-matched normal controls (13 males and 11 females; mean age, 40.46±11.4 years) underwent resting-state functional MRI examination. Seven imaging parameters, including amplitude of low-frequency fluctuation (ALFF), fractional amplitude of low-frequency fluctuation (fALFF), regional homogeneity (ReHo), degree centrality (DC), voxel-mirrored homotopic connectivity (VMHC), long-range functional connectivity density (FCD), and short-range FCD, were entered into the classification model to distinguish the mTBI from normal controls. Results. The ability for any single imaging parameters to distinguish the two groups is lower than multiparameter combinations. The combination of ALFF, fALFF, DC, VMHC, and short-range FCD showed the best classification performance for distinguishing the two groups with optimal AUC value of 0.778, accuracy rate of 81.11%, sensitivity of 88%, and specificity of 75%. The brain regions with the highest contributions to this classification mainly include bilateral cerebellum, left orbitofrontal cortex, left cuneus, left temporal pole, right inferior occipital cortex, bilateral parietal lobe, and left supplementary motor area. Conclusions. Multiparameter combinations could improve the classification performance of mTBI from normal controls by using the brain regions associated with emotion and cognition. |
