Abstract

Radiomics is a new and emerging field that leverages advancements in machine learning and computational capabilities to provide prognostic and diagnostic outcomes. Using standard medical imaging techniques used to assess the location and spread of the tumor, radiomics is used to compute a wealth of information using sub-visual features from existing images to identify cancer biomarkers. This paper explores the various applications of radiomics, specifically in head and neck cancer imaging. We provide a detailed radiomics workflow for medical image data. We identify the various applications and highlight relevant research works in these applications. We address the challenges faced in the field and highlight future work in this area. This work is helpful to those researchers interested in interdisciplinary research focused on image processing in the Head and Neck anatomy.
