AuthorYearCountryAUCConclusion
Deng242019China/High Fuhrman grade cancers were associated with larger tumour diameter and an increased entropy value(texture analysis) at coarse filter correlated with high Fuhrman grade tumour.
Lubner252016USA/Entropy, the SD of the pixel distribution histogram, and the mean of positive pixels were associated with nuclear grade.
Scrima262019USA/Entropy and mean of the positive pixels also showed an association with nuclear grade.
Ding272018China0.771Texture-score based models can facilitate the preoperative discrimination of the high from low grade clear cell RCC.
Sun282019China0.91The SVM model constructed by CT-based radiomic features can effectively identify the ISUP grades of clear cell RCC.
Haji-Momenian292020USA0.97The histologic grade of small clear cell RCC can be accurately predicted with machine learning algorithms using histogram features.
