Subtle tissue deformations caused by mass-effect in Glioblastoma (GBM) are often not visually evident, and may cause neurological deficits, impacting survival. Radiomic features provide sub-visual quantitative measures to uncover disease characteristics. We present a new radiomic feature to capture mass effect-induced deformations in the brain on Gadolinium-contrast (Gd-C) T1w-MRI, and their impact on survival. Our rationale is that larger variations in deformation within functionally eloquent areas of the contralateral hemisphere are likely related to decreased survival. Displacements in the cortical and subcortical structures were measured by aligning the Gd-C T1w-MRI to a healthy atlas. The variance of deformation magnitudes was measured and defined as Mass Effect Deformation Heterogeneity (MEDH) within the brain structures. MEDH values were then correlated with overall-survival of 89 subjects on the discovery cohort, with tumors on the right (n = 41) and left (n = 48) cerebral hemispheres, and evaluated on a hold-out cohort (n = 49 subjects). On both cohorts, decreased survival time was found to be associated with increased MEDH in areas of language comprehension, social cognition, visual perception, emotion, somato-sensory, cognitive and motor-control functions, particularly in the memory areas in the left-hemisphere. Our results suggest that higher MEDH in functionally eloquent areas of the left-hemisphere due to GBM in the right-hemisphere may be associated with poor-survival.
