Discovery and Validation of a CT-Based Radiomic Signature for Preoperative Prediction of Early Recurrence in Hypopharyngeal Carcinoma

Figure 1

The radiomic workflow. On the medical images, segmentation is performed to define the tumor region. From this region, the features are extracted, e.g., features based on tumor intensity, texture, and shape. Finally, these features are used for analysis, e.g., the features are assessed for their prognostic power.
