T2 weighted images of ovarian lesions have been assessed
using texture analysis. Uneven group sizes, which can
cause bias in statistical models leading to over-fitting
of the majority class, were avoided by employing
synthetic minority oversampling methods. Significant
differences between groups were noted for 12/16 texture
parameters and a multinomial logistic regression model
utilised 4 parameters (f2, f14, f15, f16) in achieving a
diagnostic accuracy of 71% for a training dataset and
61% for a test dataset.
