Differentiating benign renal oncocytic tumors and malignant cell carcinoma (RCC) on imaging histopathology is a critical problem that presents an everyday clinical challenge. This manuscript aims to demonstrate novel methodology integrating metabolomics with radiomics features (RF) differentiate between neoplasia tumors. For this purpose, thirty-three (14 19 RCC) were prospectively collected histopathologically characterised. Matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionisation mass spectrometry (MALDI-MSI) was used extract data, while RF extracted from CT scans of the same Statistical integration generate multilevel network communities -omics features. Metabolites for differentiation two groups (delta centrality > 0.1) pathway enrichment analysis machine learning classifier (XGboost) development. Receiver operating characteristics (ROC) curves areas under curve (AUC) assess performance. Radiometabolomics demonstrated differential node configuration Fourteen nodes (6 8 metabolites) crucial in distinguishing groups. The combined radiometabolomics model achieved AUC 86.4%, whereas metabolomics-only radiomics-only classifiers 72.7% 68.2%, respectively. Analysis significant metabolite identified three distinct tumour clusters (malignant, benign, mixed) differentially enriched metabolic pathways. In conclusion, has been presented as approach evaluate disease entities. our case study, method metabolites important differentiating tumors, highlighting pathways expressed Key by can be improve identification neoplasms.

Abstract Renal cell carcinoma (RCC) as a significant health concern, with incidence rates rising annually due to increased use of cross-sectional imaging, leading higher detection incidental renal lesions. Differentiation between benign and malignant lesions is essential for effective treatment planning prognosis. tumors present numerous histological subtypes different prognoses, making precise subtype differentiation crucial. Artificial intelligence (AI), especially machine learning (ML) deep (DL), shows promise in radiological analysis, providing advanced tools lesion detection, segmentation, classification improve diagnosis personalize treatment. Recent advancements AI have demonstrated effectiveness identifying predicting surveillance outcomes, yet limitations remain, including data variability, interpretability, publication bias. In this review we explored the current role assessing kidney lesions, highlighting its potential preoperative addressing existing challenges clinical implementation.

We aimed to assess whether clear cell renal carcinoma (ccRCC) can be differentiated from oncocytoma (RO) on a contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS). Between January 2021 and October 2022, we retrospectively queried analyzed our prospectively maintained dataset. Renal mass features were scrutinized with conventional imaging (CUS) CEUS. All lesions confirmed by histopathologic diagnoses after nephron-sparing surgery (NSS). A multivariable analysis was performed identify the potential predictors of ccRCC. The area under curve (AUC) depicted in order diagnostic accuracy model. total 126 masses, including 103 (81.7%) ccRCC 23 (18.3%) RO, matched inclusion criteria. Among these two groups, found significant differences terms enhancement (homogeneous vs. heterogeneous) (p < 0.001), wash-in (fast synchronous/slow) = 0.004), wash-out rim-like 0.001). On multivariate logistic regression, heterogeneous (OR: 19.37; p <0.001) 3.73; 0.049) independent Finally, variables had an AUC 82.5% 75.3%, respectively. Diagnostic for presurgical planning is crucial choice either conservative or radical management. CEUS, its unique features, revealed usefulness differentiating RO.

The increasing evidence of oncocytic renal tumors positive in 99mTc Sestamibi Single Photon Emission Tomography/Computed Tomography (SPECT/CT) examination calls for the development diagnostic tools to differentiate these from more aggressive forms. This study combined radiomics analysis with uptake on SPECT/CT benign neoplasms cell carcinoma. A total 57 were prospectively collected. Histopathological and data extraction performed. XGBoost classifiers trained using features alone results visual evaluation examination. SPECT/radiomics model achieved higher accuracy (95%) an area under curve (AUC) 98.3% (95% CI 93.7–100%) than radiomics-only (71.67%) AUC 75% 49.7–100%) (90.8%) 90.8% (95%CI 82.5–99.1%). predictive values SPECT/radiomics, radiomics-only, SPECT/CT-only models 100%, 85.71%, 85%, respectively, whereas negative 55.56%, 94.6%, respectively.

Purpose Differentiation of fat-poor angiomyolipoma (fp-AMLs) from renal cell carcinoma (RCC) is often not possible just visual interpretation conventional cross-sectional imaging, typically requiring biopsy or surgery for diagnostic confirmation. However, radiomics has the potential to characterize masses without need invasive procedures. Here, we conducted a systematic review on accuracy CT in distinguishing fp-AMLs RCCs. Methods We search using PubMed/MEDLINE, Google Scholar, Cochrane Library, Embase, and Web Science studies published January 2011–2022 that utilized discriminate between A random-effects model was applied meta-analysis according heterogeneity level. Furthermore, subgroup analyses (group 1: RCCs vs. fp-AML, group 2: ccRCC fp-AML), quality assessment were also explore effect interstudy differences. To evaluate performance, pooled sensitivity, specificity, odds ratio (DOR) assessed. This study registered with PROSPERO (CRD42022311034). Results Our literature identified 10 1456 lesions 1437 patients.
