Book excerpt: Over the past few decades, there have been many dramatic innovations in cancer diagnosis and treatment strategies. Medical imaging plays a pivotal role in the diagnosis and treatment of cancer. It provides a comprehensive assessment of the tumors and their environments. Multiple imaging modalities are used for theranostics including optical (fluorescence or bioluminescence), nuclear (PET or SPECT), ultrasound, photoacoustic, CT, and MR imaging techniques. Radiomics is an approach for high-throughput extraction of quantitative imaging features or textures from imaging to decode histopathology and create high-dimensional datasets for feature extraction. Therefore, Radiomics may provide quantitative and objective support for decisions surrounding cancer detection and treatment.

Book excerpt: "In this thesis, the major aim is to develop radiomic-based models for the accurate prediction of tumour outcomes via advanced machine learning. We first showed that the optimization of how texture features are extracted from medical images (different isotropic voxel sizes, image quantization schemes, etc.) is fundamental for best tumour outcome prediction. We then integrated the texture optimization process into a robust multivariable modeling methodology developed for the construction of radiomic-based prediction models. This multivariable modeling methodology employs logistic regression to linearly combine radiomic features. Using this methodology, we were able to develop a model that can predict the development of lung metastases in soft-tissue sarcomas with high accuracy. This model combines texture features extracted from functional FDG-PET and anatomical MRI pre-treatment images. Following this initial work, we demonstrated how the predictive properties of imaging textures composing such prediction models could be further enhanced by optimizing the way images are acquired. The proof of concept for the enhancement of the prediction of lung metastases in soft-tissue sarcomas was carried out using computerized simulations of FDG-PET and MR image acquisitions with tumour and clinical scanner models, by varying different physical parameters employed during image acquisitions. Next, in another study, we developed a strategy for personalizing treatments for soft-tissue sarcoma patients identified at diagnosis to be at higher risks of developing lung metastases (using radiomic-based prediction models); specifically, we verified the feasibility of applying double nested radiation dose boosting to the hypermetabolic and hypoxic soft-tissue sarcoma sub-regions to counteract the progression of more aggressive parts of tumours. For the purpose of radiation treatment planning, contours defining the hypermetabolic and hypoxic tumour sub-regions were obtained from FDG-PET and low-perfusion DCE-MRI functional images. Finally, in our last study, we developed a methodology allowing to integrate radiomic imaging data with clinical prognostic factors into comprehensive prediction models using a random forest algorithm. We tested our methodology in head-and-neck cancer to better assess the risk of locoregional recurrences and distant metastases, this time using functional FDG-PET and anatomical CT pre-treatment images in conjunction to clinical data. The clinically-integrated radiomic models that we developed possess high prognostic power, leading to patient stratification into two sub-groups for the risk assessment of locoregional recurrences (low, high) in head-and-neck cancer, and into three groups for distant metastases (low, medium, high).Overall, in this thesis, we demonstrated that radiomics analysis is an enabling method towards precision medicine. The different radiomic techniques and models developed in this work could have a major impact on the design of new clinical trials aiming at a better personalization of cancer treatments. One can envision different treatment regimens being delivered to patients based on different radiomic-based risk assessments of specific tumour outcomes." --

Book excerpt: This encompassing book is designed to contribute to a teamwork approach by promoting understanding between radiologists and clinical oncologists. All of the currently available imaging modalities of relevance in clinical oncology are covered, and the presentation of a broad spectrum of oncologic diseases (of most organ systems) on these modalities is discussed and illustrated. The role of multiparametric and multimodality imaging approaches providing both morphologic and functional information is considered in detail, and careful attention is paid to the latest developments in higher field (3T) MR imaging and advanced MR techniques such as diffusion-weighted imaging, diffusion tensor imaging, perfusion-weighted imaging and spectroscopy. The major challenge of incorporating progress in quantitative imaging technology into radiotherapy treatment planning, guidance, and monitoring is also addressed. This book will assist in refining the treatment approach in various oncologic diseases and organ systems based on specific imaging features. It will be of value to radiologists, oncologists, and other medical professionals involved in the diagnosis and treatment of oncology patients. ​

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Neutron capture therapy (NCT) is based on the ability of the non-radioactive isotope boron-10 to capture thermal neutrons with very high probability and immediately to release heavy particles with a path length of one cell diameter, which in principle allows for tumor cell-selective high-LET particle radiotherapy. This book provides a comprehensive summary of the progress made in NCT in recent years. Individual sections cover all important aspects, including neutron sources, boron chemistry, drugs for NCT, dosimetry, and radiation biology. The use of NCT in a variety of malignancies and also some non-malignant diseases is extensively discussed. NCT is clearly shown to be a promising modality at the threshold of wider clinical application. All of the chapters are written by experienced specialists in language that will be readily understood by all participating disciplines.
