Differentiation of Recurrence from Radiation Necrosis in Gliomas Based on the Radiomics of Combinational Features and Multimodality MRI Images

Table 4

Mean ± standard deviations of the evaluation metrics with different features in the training and validation sets. The results of deep features from each column are shown in bold. The values of paired t-tests among different features in the validation set are listed in the lower half of the table. Calculations of the sensitivity and specificity of handcrafted and deep feature sets are provided in the Supplementary Information.
