Challenges and caveats of a multi-center retrospective radiomics study: an example of early treatment response assessment for NSCLC patients using FDG-PET/CT radiomics
Table 4
Cox regression on the percentage variation of the PET imaging descriptors most commonly used, reporting the univariable hazard ratio (HR), 95% confidence interval (CI) of the HR and corresponding p-value. Univariable performance is reported in terms of the concordance-index (c-index). Absolute values of Scan 1 and 2, and percentage variation between PET acquisitions of the analyzed metrics are also presented (mean ± standard deviation).
