What is radiomics?
Radiomics is a field of study in QR that involves the high-throughput extraction of large numbers of quantitative features from diagnostic images. The purpose is to develop new quantitative imaging biomarkers that may be clinically useful to improve the diagnostic accuracy of disease detection, staging, or phenotyping (e.g., characterization of specific disease histopathology, prediction of disease response to therapy, prognostication of patient outcome).
