(Adnkronos) - “La radiomica ha attualmente applicazioni prevalentemente dedicate all’oncologia. Certamente c’è ancora una componente di studio. Io lavoro in una struttura di ricerca, che è l'Istituto per i tumori di Milano, e applichiamo moltissimo la radiomica che, partendo da immagini diagnostiche normali, è in grado di ottenere e di analizzare una serie di dati che la mente umana non è in grado di analizzare”. Lo ha spiegato Alfonso Marchianò, presidente del comitato scientifico del 51° Congresso nazionale Sirm - Società italiana di radiologia medica e interventistica, a margine della conferenza stampa organizzata a Milano dalla società scientifica ed intitolata ‘Diagnosi più precoci e precise per meglio utilizzare le terapie: è la radiomica, la nuova frontiera della radiologia medica".

00:00What is the role of radiomics in the treatment of cancer?
00:04Radiomics currently has applications primarily dedicated to oncology.
00:09Certainly, there is still a lot of study component,
00:14so, for example, I work in a research facility, the Institute of Tumors of Milan,
00:20so we apply a lot of radiomics,
00:24in the sense that it is able,
00:28by taking normal diagnostic images,
00:32to obtain and analyze a series of data that the human mind is not able to do.
00:38The results of these assessments are integrated
00:43with other elements provided by further diagnostic tests,
00:52so what is already current
00:56is the possibility to stratify patients
00:59and therefore to choose, in quotation marks, some therapies
01:03in relation to the prognostic characteristics induced by radiomics.
01:08Of course, there is still a lot to do.
01:10Radiomics is essentially used in imaging diagnostics.
01:14I would say that all techniques can provide radiomic data.
01:18Let's say that the so-called heavy technologies,
01:22the TC and the magnetic resonance,
01:24in relation to the radiological sector,
01:27but also of great importance in relation to PET,
01:31which is a nuclear imaging technique,
01:33are certainly the investigations that can provide the greatest data.
