Computed tomography- and magnetic resonance imaging-based multi-modality radiomics models for predicting survival in esophageal cancer patients

Key Points

• The aim is to evaluate the effectiveness of multi-modality radiomics models compared to single-modality models in predicting survival outcomes in esophageal cancer patients.
• Comparison of single-modality and multi-modality radiomics models
• Analysis of disease-free survival (DFS) and overall survival (OS)
• Use of both computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging data
• Single-modality radiomics models show limited predictive ability for DFS and OS
• Multi-modality radiomics models significantly enhance predictive accuracy
• Enhanced prediction can aid in better treatment decisions for patients.
