What should we do to incorporate it into our clinical practice?</p><p id="par0010" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">The development of all-digital medical imaging techniques produces high-quality images and generates a wide range of information contained in these images. Simultaneously, the massive expansion of computing has further improved the images used to diagnose and guide the treatment of many diseases. In addition, imaging biomarkers are being developed as an expression of this synergy between digital images and their computational processing. These innovative developments extract from the medical images quantitative information that cannot be visually detected or measured in the source images. The use of imaging biomarkers will allow us, radiologists, to change the concept and the process mapping of our work, opening up the traditional medical imaging to other fields such as engineering and physics.</p><p id="par0015" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">This multidisciplinary interaction, which falls within the field of Biomedical Engineering, is developing new acquisition techniques and is implementing a variety of mathematical models able to simulate the biological and physiological reality, allowing for accurate and reproducible measurements of patients’ condition. Models based on signals or images are symbolic representations of a real process, defined as a series of relations or equations between the different variables that participate in such reality. Because of their huge potential, imaging biomarkers have emerged as one of the most active research fields, allowing for the visualization and measurement of physiological and biological processes using 3D modeling of a region of interest in a specific patient.</p><p id="par0020" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">An imaging biomarker can be defined as a characteristic extracted from the images of an individual that can be objectively measured and acts as an indicator of a normal biological process, a disease, or a response to a therapeutic intervention.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0005"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">1</span></a> From simple size or shape measurements to complex computational models, biomarkers have proved useful to provide complementary information to the traditional radiological diagnosis to determine the presence of a disorder or lesion; measure its biological condition; define its natural history and progression; stratify phenotypic abnormalities and assess the treatment response.

The definition of the problem, acquisition of source images, analytical methodology and biomarker extraction using computational models and measurement instruments are essential aspects required to study a specific disease. The development of a biomarker involves validating its relationship with the objective reality (structural, physiological, biological or molecular) and monitoring its technical validity. The path to biomarker development, expansion and subsequent implementation involves a number of consecutive steps described below (<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#fig0005">Fig. 1</a>).<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0010"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">2</span></a></p><elsevierMultimedia ident="fig0005"></elsevierMultimedia><p id="par0040" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">The first step is to define the reasons why we want to measure a specific aspect of the disease.

Irrespective of the technique used (radiography, ultrasound, CT, MRI, SPECT−Single Photon Emission Computed Tomography−or PET−Positro Emission Tomography), several issues must be taken into consideration. Image quality, measured in terms of signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) and contrast-to-noise ratio (CNR), must be optimized to detect the parameter under examination. This is a critical step to properly analyze the signal of the object of interest and its changes, facilitating the implementation of the most appropriate computational tools.</p><p id="par0055" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">As for anatomical coverage, the target organ must be studied with sufficient spatial resolution, defined by voxel size. Both the resolution and anatomical coverage must be adjusted to the problem under investigation and the expected size of the lesion. In order to ensure reproducibility, the images must be free of artifacts that may degrade or disturb the signal and must maintain their quality over time (SNR, CNR) without modifying the acquisition parameters.

In this respect, there are methods to estimate the volume and shape of the tissues (as in lung carcinoma), their typology (as in trabecular bone), and some of their physical (transverse and longitudinal relaxation times), chemical (spectroscopy), biological (angiogenesis and cellularity) and functional (local consumption of oxygen) properties.</p><p id="par0085" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">Once these variables are obtained for each voxel of interest, the spatial distribution of the biomarker can be depicted using <span class="elsevierStyleItalic">parametric images</span> (<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#fig0010">Fig. 2</a>).

Unlike parametric images, in the images generated by multivariate analysis the color of each voxel is determined by a multivariate statistical function, which is in turn a combination of several parameters or biomarkers.

One of the problems with this approach is the clear tendency to underestimate the changes in body tissues and organs, since the values indicative of disease, or its most relevant manifestations, are minimized. For this reason, the most extreme values are used in the same settings (the maximum 10% in perfusion maps or the minimum 25% in diffusion coefficient maps) to obtain a better relationship with the most relevant predictive clinical variables. The optimal type of approach chosen must be defined for each problem (complete histogram, partial histogram in quartiles, partial histogram in deciles).</p><p id="par0105" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">A further approach involves, in a given region (usually a tumor or lesion), the analysis of the heterogeneity in the spatial distribution of a biomarker provided by its parametric image.

High values (in red) correspond to high nodal strain, in other words, to regions with higher risk of rupture.</p>" ] ] ] "bibliografia" => array:2 [ "titulo" => "References" "seccion" => array:1 [ 0 => array:2 [ "identificador" => "bibs0005" "bibliografiaReferencia" => array:30 [ 0 => array:3 [ "identificador" => "bib0005" "etiqueta" => "1" "referencia" => array:1 [ 0 => array:2 [ "contribucion" => array:1 [ 0 => array:2 [ "titulo" => "Biomarkers and surrogate endpoints" "autores" => array:1 [ 0 => array:3 [ "colaboracion" => "Biomarkers Definitions Working Group" "etal" => false "autores" => array:1 [ 0 => "G.
