[Abstract] MRI radiomics extracts a large number of high-dimensional features from MRI images and analyzes the data in combination with machine learning, so as to non-invasively obtain information on the overall heterogeneity of tumors. It has been explorably used to predict the efficacy and prognosis of neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) for breast cancer, and has shown good efficacy. Although its clinical application is currently limited by the lack of adequate standardized definitions and biological validation, it still has broad development prospects. This article will review the application progress, problems and application prospects of MRI radiomics in the efficacy and prognosis of NAC for breast cancer.
