Textural analysis and artificial intelligence as decision support tools in the diagnosis of multiple sclerosis – a systematic review (2025)

Introduction Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is conventionally used for the detection and diagnosis of multiple sclerosis (MS), often complemented by lumbar puncture—a highly invasive method—to validate the diagnosis. Additionally, MRI is periodically repeated to monitor disease progression and treatment efficacy. Recent research has focused on the application of artificial intelligence (AI) and radiomics in…

MRI-Based Radiomics in Bladder Cancer: A Systematic Review and Radiomics Quality Score Assessment (2023)

Background: With the recent introduction of vesical imaging reporting and data system (VI-RADS), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) has become the main imaging method used for the preoperative local staging of bladder cancer (BCa). However, the VI-RADS score is subject to interobserver variability and cannot provide information about tumor cellularity. These limitations may be overcome…

More than Meets the Eye: Using Textural Analysis and Artificial Intelligence as Decision Support Tools in Prostate Cancer Diagnosis—A Systematic Review (2022)

Introduction: Multiparametric magnetic resonance imaging (mpMRI) is the main imagistic tool employed to assess patients suspected of harboring prostate cancer (PCa), setting the indication for targeted prostate biopsy. However, both mpMRI and targeted prostate biopsy are operator dependent. The past decade has been marked by the emerging domain of radiomics and artificial intelligence (AI),…
