Abstract
With the ongoing advances in imaging techniques, increasing volumes of anatomical and functional data are being generated as part of the routine clinical workflow. This surge of available imaging data coincides with increasing research in quantitative imaging, particularly in the domain of imaging features. An important and novel approach is radiomics, where high-dimensional image properties are extracted from routine medical images. The fundamental principle of radiomics is the hypothesis that biomedical images contain predictive information, not discernible to the human eye, that can be mined through quantitative image analysis. In this review, a general outline of radiomics and artificial intelligence (AI) will be provided, along with prominent use cases in immunotherapy (e.g. response and adverse event prediction) and targeted therapy (i.e. radiogenomics). While the increased use and development of radiomics and AI in immuno-oncology is highly promising, the technology is still in its early stages, and different challenges still need to be overcome. Nevertheless, novel AI algorithms are being constructed with an ever-increasing scope of applications.
