Histopathological correlations of CT-based radiomics imaging biomarkers in native kidney biopsy

Kidney biopsy is the standard of care for the diagnosis of various kidney diseases. In particular, chronic histopathologic lesions, such as interstitial fibrosis and tubular atrophy, can provide prognostic information regarding chronic kidney disease progression. In this study, we aimed to evaluate historadiological correlations between CT-based radiomic features and chronic histologic changes in native kidney biopsies and to construct and validate a radiomics-based prediction model for chronicity grade.
