Abstract
Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) have significantly improved the prognosis of patients with lung cancer. However, checkpoint inhibitor-related pneumonitis (CIP), as one of the most severe immune-related adverse events, lacks well-defined diagnostic criteria and reliable risk stratification tools. Radiomics enables high-throughput feature extraction from computed tomography images and provides a non-invasive technical approach for the early identification and risk stratification of CIP. This article systematically reviews the recent advances in the application of radiomics to risk prediction, diagnosis and differential diagnosis, and prognostic evaluation of CIP in lung cancer immunotherapy. Furthermore, it explores the value of integrating radiomics with multi-omics data in elucidating the pathogenesis of CIP, as well as the role of explainable artificial intelligence (XAI) in enhancing the clinical trustworthiness of models. .
