International audience Liver malignancies, particularly hepatocellular carcinoma, and metastases stand as prominent contributors to cancer mortality. Within abdominal computed tomography imaging, much of the data remain underused by radiologists. Radiomics uses advanced image analysis to extract quantitative features from medical scans for deeper diagnosis, treatment, and prognosis insights. Machine learning algorithms enable analyzing these features, facilitating an automatic, rapid, and efficient medical management process. We used these algorithms to train models that can distinguish between healthy livers and those with tumors, as well as between HCC and metastatic tumors, using CT images from the electronic medical records of the Centre National Hospitalier Universitaire Hubert Koutoukou Maga (CNHU-HKM) in Benin. The high correlation scores suggest that the radiomics signature is a prognostic biomarker for hepatic tumor screening.
