Popis: | The aim of this study is to find a correlation between tumoral heterogeneity of squamous cell carcinoma of the oropharynx and human papillomavirus (HPV) status and to determine whether analysis of texture features of primary lesion on contrast-enhanced CT (CECT) images can be useful in predicting the HPV positivity. Fifty patients with diagnosis of oropharyngeal carcinoma and pre-treatment CECT were included; tumoral heterogeneity of each lesion was evaluated by extracting quantitative texture parameters of first and higher orders. T test and logistic regression were conducted to evaluate the effects of different textural characteristics. There were 35 HPV+ and 15 HPV− lesions. Statistically significant (p |
