Radiomic features from mammograms have been shown to predict breast cancer (BC) risk; however, their contribution to BC characteristics has not yet been explored. This study included 184 women with BC between January 2012 and April 2017. A set of 33 global radiomic features were extracted from the ipsilateral breast mammogram. Associations between radiomic features and BC characteristics were investigated by univariate logistic regression analysis, and receiver-operating characteristic curve analysis was employed to evaluate the predictive performance of radiomic features. Histogram-based features (mean, 70th percentile, and 30th percentile) weakly differentiated progesterone status and tumor size (AUC range: 0.627-0.652, p ≤ 0.007). One gray level run length matrix (GLRLM)-based feature achieved an AUC of 0.68 in discriminating lymph-node status, and the fractal dimension achieved an AUC of 0.65 in predicting tumor size. After stratifying by age at BC diagnosis and baseline percent density (PD), the average predictive performance of the abovementioned features improved from 0.652 to 0.707 for baseline PD adjustment, and from 0.652 to 0.674 for age at BC diagnosis. Higher predictive performances were found for GLRLM-based features in predicting lymph-node status among younger women with high baseline PD (AUC range: 0.710-0.863), and for fractal features in predicting tumor size among patients with low PD (AUC: 0.704). Global radiomic features from the ipsilateral breast mammogram can predict lymph-node status and tumor size among certain categories of women and should be considered as a non-invasive tool for clinical decision-making in BC-affected women and for forecasting disease progression. |
