Tumor classification and prediction using robust multivariate clustering of multiparametric MRI

Abstract

International audienceIn neuro-oncology, the use of multiparametric MRI may better characterize brain tumor heterogeneity. To fully exploit multiparametric MRI (e.g. tumor classification), appropriate analysis methods are yet to be developed. In this work, we show on small animals data that advanced statistical learning approaches can help 1) in organizing existing data by detecting and excluding outliers and 2) in building a dictionary of tumor fingerprints from a clustering analysis of their microvascular features
