Multimodal deep learning-based radiomics for meningioma consistency prediction: integrating T1 and T2 MRI in a multi-center study.

Abstract

BACKGROUND: Meningioma consistency critically impacts surgical planning, as soft tumors are easier to resect than hard tumors. Current assessments of tumor consistency using MRI are subjective and lack quantitative accuracy. Integrating deep learning and radiomics could enhance the predictive accuracy of meningioma consistency.
