Radiomics is a quantitative approach to medical imaging, which aims at enhancing the existing data by means of advanced mathematical analysis. Various studies from different fields in imaging have been published so far, highlighting the potential of radiomics to enhance clinical decision-making. However, the field faces several important challenges, which are mainly caused by the various technical factors influencing the extracted radiomic features. This holds especially true for the field of MR. The aim of this presentation is to explain, what radiomics is, to present the typical workflow of a radiomics analysis, and to discuss the current limitations of radiomics.
