Description

Highlights: • MRI-radiomics can help identifying patients at risk for postoperative pancreatic fistula after pancreaticoduodenectomy. • The diagnostic performance of an MRI-radiomics approach exceeds that of established clinical risk scores. • Radiomics reveal additional information from readily available pancreatic imaging datasets invisible to the bare eye. To evaluate whether a magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) radiomics-based machine learning classifier can predict postoperative pancreatic fistula (POPF) after pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD) and to compare its performance to T1 signal intensity ratio (T1 SIratio).
