Summary

This study describes a subset of the HNSCC collection on TCIA.

There is an unmet need for integrating quantitative imaging biomarkers into current risk stratification tools and to explore the correlation between radiomics features –alone or in combination with clinical prognosticators- and tumor outcome.  Clinical meta-data and matched baseline contrast-enhanced computed tomography (CECT) scans were used to build a cohort of 495 oropharyngeal cancer (OPC) patients treated between 2005 and 2012.  Expert radiation oncologists manually segmented primary and nodal disease gross volumes (GTVp & GTVn). Structures were named per the American Association of Physicists in Medicine (AAPM) TG-263 recommendations, then retrieved in RT-STRUCT format. Matched patient, disease, treatment and outcomes data were obtained. Radiomics analysis was performed using an open-source institutionally-developed software that runs on Matlab platform.

Version 2: Updated 2022/08/02

Corrected version of the clinical data CSV attached, because the investigators noticed an error in some of the durations of the endpoints including the overall survival, local and regional control, and freedom from distant metastasis. The original excel sheet had errors because the formulas to calculate the duration for patients with events were not applied so we fixed this error and now all the durations are correct.

Detailed Description

Methods

Diagnostic contrast-enhanced computed tomography (CECT) Digital Imaging and Communications in Medicine (DICOM) files prior to any active intervention were collected for 495 OPC patients treated at our institution between 2005 and 2012. Expert radiation oncologists manually segmented primary and nodal disease gross volumes (GTVp & GTVn). Structures were named per the American Association of Physicists in Medicine (AAPM) TG-263 recommendations, then retrieved in RT-STRUCT format. Matched patient, disease, treatment and outcomes data were obtained. Radiomics analysis was performed using an open-source institutionally-developed software that runs on Matlab platform. Links to these can be found in the related publication.

Note from the investigators: Some PET scans will include two PET AC files—one includes the head & neck portion of the exam, the other includes eyes-to-thighs. There is no file naming convention to distinguish between the two, so delineation may require the use of a DICOM viewer.
