Controversy

Whether hand-crafted radiomic signatures are stable enough to be biomarkers, or are dominated by acquisition/segmentation/software variation

Evidence grade: WEAK — Supported only by weak or preliminary evidence.

computed from the encoded evidence by the Atlas grading rule.

Position A

IBSI standardization and ComBat harmonization make radiomic features reproducible and poolable

Position B

Features remain sensitive to voxel resampling, segmentation, scanner, and software; harmonization can remove real biological signal along with batch effect

Clinical stakes

Reproducibility crisis undermines translation of the entire hand-crafted radiomics enterprise
