| contents | Purpose: Radiation pneumonitis (RP) is a serious complication of intensity-modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) for breast cancer patients, underscoring the need for precise and explainable predictive models. This study presents an Explainable Dual-Omics Filtering (EDOF) model that integrates spatially localized dosiomic and radiomic features for voxel-level RP prediction.
Methods: A retrospective cohort of 72 breast cancer patients treated with IMRT was analyzed, including 28 who developed RP. The EDOF model consists of two components: (1) dosiomic filtering, which extracts local dose intensity and spatial distribution features from planning dose maps, and (2) radiomic filtering, which captures texture-based features from pre-treatment CT scans. These features are jointly analyzed using the Explainable Boosting Machine (EBM), a transparent machine learning model that enables feature-specific risk evaluation. Model performance was assessed using five-fold cross-validation, reporting area under the curve (AUC), sensitivity, and specificity. Feature importance was quantified by mean absolute scores, and Partial Dependence Plots (PDPs) were used to visualize nonlinear relationships between RP risk and dual-omic features.
Results: The EDOF model achieved strong predictive performance (AUC = 0.95 +- 0.01; sensitivity = 0.81 +- 0.05). The most influential features included dosiomic Intensity Mean, dosiomic Intensity Mean Absolute Deviation, and radiomic SRLGLE. PDPs revealed that RP risk increases beyond 5 Gy and rises sharply between 10-30 Gy, consistent with clinical dose thresholds. SRLGLE also captured structural heterogeneity linked to RP in specific lung regions.
Conclusion: The EDOF framework enables spatially resolved, explainable RP prediction and may support personalized radiation planning to mitigate pulmonary toxicity. |
