Abstract:
Renal cell carcinoma is one of the most common malignant tumors of the urinary system.Radiomics,as a non-invasive and efficient diagnostic method,can extract high-throughput imaging features imperceptible to the human eye,offering new possibilities for precise diagnosis and evaluation of renal cell carcinoma.However,radiomics often treats the entire tumor as a homogeneous region,overlooking intratumoral heterogeneity and exhibiting poor biological interpretability.As an emerging imaging technology based on biological contexts,habitat imaging utilizes quantitative imaging biomarkers to delineate distinct spatial regions with similar biological characteristics within a tumor,thereby visualizing and quantifying intratumoral heterogeneity.This article reviews and prospects the advances and future directions of radiomics and habitat imaging in renal cell carcinoma.
