From: Applying arterial enhancement fraction (AEF) texture features to predict the tumor response in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) treated with Transarterial chemoembolization (TACE)

Fig. 2

Box diagrams showing the difference of AEF texture features (p < 0.05) between “Improve” and “Un-improved” patients (Group 0: Un-improved; Group 1: Improved). Based on the definition of each texture, HCCs in “Improved” patients seems to produce more heterogeneous AEF values (C: Lower Energy; D: Higher Entropy; E: Lower InverseDifferenceMoment; H: Higher ShortRunHighGreyLevelEmphasis) and more left-skewed AEF values (B: Lower Skewness; G: Higher HighGreyLevelRunEmphasis), which indicates a more extensive and active angiogenesis, or arterialization, in the tumor
