Exploratory Analysis of 18F-3’-deoxy-3’-fluorothymidine (18F-FLT) PET/CT-Based Radiomics for the Early Evaluation of Response to Neoadjuvant Chemotherapy in Patients With Locally Advanced Breast Cancer

Exploratory Analysis of 18F-3’-deoxy-3’-fluorothymidine (18F-FLT) PET/CT-Based Radiomics for the Early Evaluation of Response to Neoadjuvant Chemotherapy in Patients With Locally Advanced Breast Cancer

PurposeThe objective of this study was to evaluate a set of radiomics-based advanced textural features extracted from 18F-FLT-PET/CT images to predict tumor response to neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NCT) in patients with locally advanced breast cancer (BC).Materials and MethodsPatients with operable (T2...
