Preoperative prediction of postsurgical outcomes in mass-forming intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma based on clinical, radiologic, and radiomics features

Abstract

• The radiomics analysis had incremental value in predicting recurrence-free survival of patients with intrahepatic mass-forming cholangiocarcinoma. • The clinical-radiologic-radiomics model demonstrated similar performance to the postoperatively available prognostic systems (including 8th AJCC system) in predicting recurrence-free survival and overall survival. • The clinical-radiologic-radiomics model may be useful for the preoperative assessment of postsurgical outcomes in patients with mass-forming intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma.
