Abstrakt: Objectives: To construct a machine learning model for differentiating Parkinson's disease (PD) and multiple system atrophy (MSA) by using multimodal PET/MRI radiomics and clinical characteristics. Methods: One hundred and nineteen patients (81 with PD and 38 with MSA) underwent brain PET/CT and MRI to obtain metabolic images ([18F]FDG, [11C]CFT PET) and structural MRI (T1WI, T2WI, and T2-FLAIR). Image analysis included automatic segmentation on MRI, co-registration of PET images onto the corresponding MRI. Radiomics features were then extracted from the putamina and caudate nuclei and selected to construct predictive models. Moreover, based on PET/MRI radiomics and clinical characteristics, we developed a nomogram. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves were performed to evaluate the performance of the models. Decision curve analysis (DCA) was employed to access the clinical usefulness of the models. Results: The combined PET/MRI radiomics model of five sequences outperformed monomodal radiomics models alone. Further, PET/MRI radiomics-clinical combined model could perfectly distinguish PD from MSA (AUC = 0.993), which outperformed the clinical model (AUC = 0.923, p = 0.028) in training set, with no significant difference in test set (AUC = 0.860 vs 0.917, p = 0.390). However, no significant difference was found between PET/MRI radiomics-clinical model and PET/MRI radiomics model in training (AUC = 0.988, p = 0.276) and test sets (AUC = 0.860 vs 0.845, p = 0.632). DCA demonstrated the highest clinical benefit of PET/MRI radiomics-clinical model. Conclusions: Our study indicates that multimodal PET/MRI radiomics could achieve promising performance to differentiate between PD and MSA in clinics. Clinical relevance statement: This study developed an optimal radiomics signature and construct model to distinguish PD from MSA by multimodal PET/MRI imaging methods in clinics for parkinsonian syndromes, which achieved an excellent performance. Key Points: •Multimodal PET/MRI radiomics from putamina and caudate nuclei increase the diagnostic efficiency for distinguishing PD from MSA. •The radiomics-based nomogram was developed to differentiate between PD and MSA. •Combining PET/MRI radiomics-clinical model achieved promising performance to identify PD and MSA.
