Abstract
PURPOSE: Patients with high-grade osteosarcoma undergo several chemotherapy cycles before surgical intervention. Response to chemotherapy, however, is affected by intratumor heterogeneity. In this study, we assessed the ability of a machine learning approach using baseline F-fluorodeoxyglucose (F-FDG) positron emitted tomography (PET) textural features to predict response to chemotherapy in osteosarcoma patients.
