Alison (radiomics skeptic) and Nick (radiomics hopeful) sit down to discuss the benefits, drawbacks, and potential of radiomics. A variety of papers were discussed and can be found below. We also briefly discussed (though we did try not to) deep learning and broader AI applications.
Are you a radiomics optimist or pessimist? Tell us at https://www.reddit.com/r/HormesisPodcast/comments/ct6p1q/episode_4_radiomics_how_to_maybe_classify_your/.
