Abstract
A method for characterising a region of interest comprising adipose tissue using medical imaging data of a subject is disclosed. The method comprises calculating the value of a radiomic signature of the region of interest using the medical imaging data. Also disclosed is a method for deriving a radiomic signature indicative of adipose tissue dysfunction. The method comprises obtaining a radiomic dataset and using the radiomic dataset to construct a radiomic signature of a region of interest comprising adipose tissue. Also disclosed are systems for performing the aforementioned methods.
Claims16
A method for characterizing adipose tissue biology in a region
- of interest comprising adipose tissue of a subject, the method comprising:
- (a) obtaining or having obtained medical imaging data of the region of interest of the subject;
- (b) extracting a radiomic feature from the medical imaging data;
- and
- (c) calculating a value of a radiomic signature of the region of interest using the medical imaging data;
- wherein the radiomic signature is calculated on the basis of the radiomic feature extracted from the medical imaging data.
