• Radiomics analysis on T1-weighted images of preterm neonates showed the highest diagnostic performance (AUC, 0.925) for predicting poor psychomotor outcomes. • In spite of 45 of 46 neonates having no significant white matter injury on visual assessment, the radiomics analysis of early brain MRI showed good diagnostic performance (sensitivity, 84.6%; specificity, 78.8%) for predicting poor psychomotor outcomes. • Radiomics analysis on early brain MRI can help to predict poor neurodevelopmental outcomes in preterm neonates.
