New imaging methods have proven to be considerably valuable in the identification of cardiac amyloid infiltration. For treating clinicians, a diagnostic algorithm for patients with suspected amyloidosis with or without cardiomyopathy is shown to help classify disease and to direct appropriate genetic testing and management. For patients with light chain disease, recently introduced treatments adopted from multiple myeloma therapies have significantly extended progression-free and overall survival as well as organ response. In addition, new medical interventions are now available for those with transthyretin amyloidosis. Although cardiac amyloidosis contributes significantly to the morbidity and mortality associated with systemic disease, new tools are available to assist with diagnosis, prognosis, and management. This study evaluates the ability of several machine learning (ML) algorithms, developed using volumetric and texture data extracted from baseline F-FDG PET/CT studies performed initial staging of patient with esophageal cancer (EC), to predict survival and histopathology. The initial staging F-FDG PET/CT images obtained on newly diagnosed EC patients between January 2008 and June 2019 were evaluated using LIFEx software. A region of interest (ROI) of the primary tumor was created and volumetric and textural features were obtained. A significant relationship between these features and pathological subtypes, 1-year, and 5-year survival was investigated. Due to the nonhomogeneity of the data, nonparametric test (The Mann-Whitney U test) was used for each feature, in pairwise comparisons of independent variables. A p value of < 0.05 was considered significant. Receiver operating curve (ROC) analysis was performed for fe
