  • The texture analysis of CT images for the discrimination of hepatic epithelioid hemangioendothelioma and liver metastases of colon cancer: a preliminary study

    Objective To determine feasibility of texture analysis of CT images for the discrimination of hepatic epithelioid hemangioendothelioma (HEHE) and liver metastases of colon cancer. Methods CT images of 9 patients with 19 pathologically proved HEHEs and 18 patients with 38 liver metastases of colon cancer who received treatment in West China Hospital of Sichuan University from July 2012 to August 2016 were retrospectively analyzed. Results Thirty best texture parameters were automatically selected by the combination of Fisher coefficient (Fisher)+classification error probability combined with average correlation coefficients (PA)+mutual information (MI). The 30 texture parameters of arterial phase (AP) CT images were distributed in co-occurrence matrix (22 parameters), run-length matrix (1 parameter), histogram (4 parameters), gradient (1 parameter), and autoregressive model (2 parameters). The distribution of parameters in portal venous phase (PVP) were co-occurrence matrix (18 parameters), run-length matrix (2 parameters), histogram (7 parameters), gradient (2 parameters), and autoregressive model (1 parameter). In AP, the misclassification rates of raw data analysis (RDA)/K nearest neighbor classification (KNN), principal component analysis (PCA)/KNN, linear discriminant analysis (LDA)/KNN, and nonlinear discriminant analysis, and nonlinear discriminant analysis (NDA)/artificial neural network (ANN) was 38.60% (22/57), 42.11% (24/57), 8.77% (5/57), and 7.02% (4/57), respectively. In PVP, the misclassification rates of RDA/KNN, PCA/KNN, LDA/KNN, and NDA/ANN was 26.32% (15/57), 28.07% (16/57), 15.79% (9/57), and 10.53% (6/57), respectively. The misclassification rates of AP and PVP images had no statistical significance on the misclassification rates of RDA/KNN, PCA/KNN, LDA/KNN, and NDA/ANN between AP and PVP (P>0.05). Conclusion The texture analysis of CT images is feasible to identify HEHE and liver metastases of colon cancer.
