Research on the developments of artificial intelligence in radiomics for oncology over the past decade: a bibliometric and visualized analysis
摘要
To assess the publications’ bibliographic features and look into how the advancement of artificial intelligence (AI) and its subfields in radiomics has affected the growth of oncology.
MethodsThe researchers conducted a search in the Web of Science (WoS) for scientific publications in cancer pertaining to AI and radiomics, published in English from 1 January 2015 to 31 December 2024.The research included a scientometric methodology and comprehensive data analysis utilising scientific visualization tools, including the Bibliometrix R software package, VOSviewer, and CiteSpace. Bibliometric techniques utilised were co-authorship, co-citation, co-occurrence, citation burst, and performance Analysis.
ResultsThe final study encompassed 4,127 publications authored by 5,026 individuals and published across 597 journals. China (2087;50.57%) and USA (850;20.6%) were the two most productive countries. The authors with the highest publication counts were Tian Jie (60) and Cuocolo Renato (30). Fudan University (169;4.09%) and Sun Yat-sen University (162;3.93%) were the most active institutions. The foremost journals were Frontiers in Oncology and Cancer. The predominant author keywords were radiomics, artificial intelligence, and oncology research.
ConclusionInvestigations into the integration of AI with radiomics in oncology remain nascent, with numerous studies concentrating on biology, diagnosis, treatment, and cancer risk evaluation.
