*2.4. Clinical Applications of Radiomics*

The application and research potential of radiomics are still being explored. However, based on published studies, the clinical application of radiomics can be classified into the following three categories: radiogenomics (linking imaging data to biology), diagnosis of diseases, and clinical outcome prediction, including treatment response, recurrent disease, and survival time [47,51]. However, radiomic studies of thyroid cancer mainly involve the latter two categories.
