可解释诊断算法识别的超极化129Xe MRI与间质性肺病相关特征
本研究分析155名参与者（84例ILD、21例COPD、50名健康对照）的超极化129Xe MRI/MRS数据，通过L1正则化逻辑回归和SHAP分析筛选出四个关键指标并构建阈值决策树。该决策树总体分类准确率达93.5%，对ILD的敏感度/特异度为94.1%/92.9%，特征与阈值经bootstrap重采样验证稳定。
要点
- 决策树使用四个129Xe指标：高膜摄取、通气缺陷百分比、RBC转移缺陷梯度、RBC化学位移。
- ILD分类敏感度94.1%、特异度92.9%，总体准确率93.5%。
- 特征与阈值经bootstrap重采样确认稳定，支持用于早期检测。
局限性
- 样本量有限（155例），其中COPD仅21例。
- 单中心研究，外部验证不足。
- 回顾性设计可能引入选择偏倚。

RATIONALE AND OBJECTIVES: Hyperpolarized 129Xe magnetic resonance imaging and spectroscopy (MRI/MRS) have been used to identify numerous imaging and spectroscopic features that distinguish interstitial lung disease (ILD) from chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and healthy controls. However, it remains unclear which specific 129Xe MRI/MRS features, and at what thresholds, are most strongly associated with ILD, relative to COPD and health.
MATERIALS AND METHODS: 129Xe MRI/MRS from 155 participants (age 56.6 ± 17.8 years; 80 females), including 84 with ILD, 21 with COPD, and 50 healthy controls, were analyzed to derive eight quantitative metrics. The most informative of these metrics were selected using L1-regularized logistic regression with SHapley Additive exPlanations (SHAP) analysis. These selected metrics then informed a threshold-based decision tree that was evaluated for comprehensive diagnostic performance. Its stability was assessed with bootstrap resampling.
RESULTS: The decision tree utilized the following 129Xe metrics: high membrane uptake (Memhigh), ventilation defect percentage (VDP), red blood cell (RBC) transfer defect gradient (ΔRDPBA), and RBC chemical shift, achieving an overall classification accuracy of 93.5%. Class-specific sensitivity/specificity for healthy, COPD and ILD were 90.0%/95.2%, 100%/ 100% and 94.1%/92.9% respectively, with the stability of features and thresholds confirmed by bootstrapping.
CONCLUSION: This interpretable approach highlights four physiologically meaningful 129Xe MRI/MRS metrics strongly associated with ILD, supporting their further development for early detection and individualized physiological assessment.
