Insights into Imaging - think critical

Insights into Imaging is a journal of the European Society of Radiology (ESR) with an Impact Factor 2022 of 4.7.

Through critical thinking and re-thinking, the authors should provide an insight into how radiology is currently practised and analyse whether it needs to be re-shaped.
 

Featured article: METhodological RadiomICs Score (METRICS): a quality scoring tool for radiomics research endorsed by EuSoMII

Kocak B, D’Antonoli TA, Mercaldo N et al.

In this work, the authors developed a scoring tool for assessing the methodological quality of radiomics research, with a large international panel and a modified Delphi protocol. With its conditional format to cover methodological variations, the tool METhodological RadiomICs Score (METRICS) provides a well-constructed framework for the key methodological concepts to assess the quality of radiomic research papers and machine learning.
