Study (ref.) Year Country Type of study No. of patients ROI selection CE-MDCT phase Reference standard Texture features Key message
Ba-Ssalamah et al [59] 2013 Austria Retrospective 47 Single slice Arterial; venous Biopsy 2nd order statistics Texture analysis can differentiate histological subtypes
Giganti et al [62] 2016 Italy Retrospective 56 Whole tumour Late arterial Radical resection 1st and 2nd order statistics Texture analysis reflects tumour aggressiveness and is related to prognosis
Yoon et al [63] 2016 Korea Retrospective 26 Single slice Venous Biopsy 2nd order statistics Texture features are associated with better survival in HER2-positive patients receiving trastuzumab
Giganti et al [61] 2017 Italy Retrospective 34 Whole tumour Late arterial Radical resection 1st and 2nd order statistics Texture analysis provides important information on the response rate to neoadjuvant therapy
Liu et al [60] 2017 China Retrospective 107 Single slice Arterial; venous Radical resection 1st and 2nd order statistics Texture parameters can predict the degree of differentiation, Lauren classification and vascular invasion
