The platform also comprises a novel data-mining tool to assist the research customer to undertake statistical analysis to identify interesting parameters demonstrating association with patient outcome and clinical parameters. A number of research studies published in numerous peer-reviewed journals and conference presentations show that TexRAD texture metrics may have the potential to predict prognosis, disease severity and treatment prediction/evaluation in a number of cancer applications.
