Abstract

Artificial intelligence has become a popular field of research with goals of integrating it into the clinical decision-making process. A growing number of predictive models are being employed utilizing machine learning that includes quantitative, computer-extracted imaging features known as radiomic features, and deep learning systems. This is especially true in brain-tumor imaging where artificial intelligence has been proposed to characterize, differentiate, and prognostication. We reviewed current literature regarding the potential uses of machine learning-based, and deep learning-based artificial intelligence in neuro-oncology as it pertains to brain tumor molecular classification, differentiation, and treatment response. While there is promising evidence supporting the use of artificial intelligence in neuro-oncology, there are still more investigations needed on a larger, multicenter scale along with a streamlined and standardized image processing workflow prior to its introduction in routine clinical decision-making protocol.Copyright © 2022 Elsevier Inc.
