Objective:

To investigate the impact of sex on radiomics-based prediction of mortality and troponin levels in acute pulmonary embolism (APE) patients.

Approach:

Key Findings:

• Previous studies show conflicting results regarding the influence of sex on mortality in APE.
• The study aims to clarify the role of sex in predicting mortality and troponin levels using radiomics.

Interpretation:

Remove this section as it contains unsupported claims.

Limitations:

• The dataset was limited to 200 patients for the main analysis, which may affect generalizability.
• Manual segmentation of lung thrombus was required for some cases, which could introduce bias.

Conclusion:

The study seeks to enhance understanding of sex-related differences in APE outcomes through radiomics analysis.
