We conducted an initial study focusing on texture information of the arterial thrombus.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Method<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Computed tomography (CT) of the lung from 86 patients with pulmonary embolism was used. As target variables, we used patients 30-day mortality and troponin results. Each arterial thrombus was manually segmented. After the extraction of their radiomics features and the reduction via correlation analysis and 12 feature selection methods, these and the target variables were given to 12 different classification methods to record the accuracies (Acc.), F1-scores (F1) and ROC curve areas under the curve (AUC) for comparison and evaluation.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>The resulting accuracy achieved was 0.967, the F1-score 0.973 for class 0 and 0.967 for class 1 and the AUC around 0.9686. The feature selection methods which resulted in the highest results were ReliefF (RF), Logistic Regression (LOR) and CART Classification (CARTC). For the classification methods, Support Vector Machines (SVM), eXtreme Gradiant Boosting (XGB) and Ensemble Bagged Trees (EBT) lead to the highest results. Firstorder, Shape and gray-level co-occurrence matrix (GLCM) were the most selected radiomics feature classes.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Within this study, we conducted radiomics feature extraction within a medical image data analysis pipeline with subsequent correlation analysis and training of classifiers for patients with pulmonary lung embolism. We could show that the radiomics features correlated with patient\u2019s morphology as well as troponin range with an accuracy of 0.967 and 0.9302, respectively, yield high potential for prognosis and treatment strategy of pulmonary embolism patients in the future.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1007\/s11548-025-03530-x","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2025,10,22]],"date-time":"2025-10-22T15:58:51Z","timestamp":1761148731000},"page":"307-318","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1007\/springer_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Prognostic potential of radiomics evaluation of lung artery thrombus for pulmonary embolism patients"],"prefix":"10.1007","volume":"21","author":[{"given":"Lea","family":"Ehrhardt","sequence":"first","affiliation":[]},{"given":"Patrique","family":"Fiedler","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[]},{"given":"Alexey","family":"Surov","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[]},{"given":"Sylvia","family":"Saalfeld","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[]}],"member":"297","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2025,10,22]]},"reference":[{"issue":"11","key":"3530_CR1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"2363","DOI":"10.1161\/ATVBAHA.114.304488","volume":"34","author":"GE Raskob","year":"2014","unstructured":"Raskob GE, Angchaisuksiri P, Blanco AN, Buller H, Gallus A, Hunt BJ, Hylek EM, Kakkar A, Konstantinides SV, McCumber M, Ozaki Y, Wendelboe A, Weitz JI, World ISC (2014) Thrombosis: a major contributor to global disease burden.
