Title
Computational Radiologic/Pathologic Correlation for Imaging Biomarker Discovery in Lung Cancer
Summary
Hypothesis:
1. Computed tomography (CT) features of CT screen-detected nodules correlate with and predict histopathologic features of resected lung cancers, specifically lepidic features seen in microscopy of the resected tumors.
2. A secondary hypothesis is that CT features of nodules correlate with biological behavior and outcomes (stage at diagnosis, overall survival OS, and progression free survival PFS).
3. Annotation image mark-up (AIM) enables efficient capture of quantitative and semantic information from radiology and pathology images and enables correlative scientific discovery through computational analysis of annotated features in large-scale radiology and pathology image databases.
