Identification of high-risk carotid plaque with MRI-based radiomics and machine learning

ConclusionsOur MRI-based radiomics model can accurately distinguish symptomatic from asymptomatic carotid plaques. It is superior to the traditional model in the identification of high-risk plaques.Key Points• Carotid plaque multi-contrast MRI stores other valuable information to be further exploited by radiomics analysis.• Radiomics analysis can accurately distinguish symptomatic from asymptomatic carotid plaques.• The radiomics model is superior to the traditional model in the identification of high-risk plaques.
