Stratification of cystic renal masses into benign and potentially malignant: applying machine learning to the bosniak classification.

Three CT texture-based machine learning algorithms demonstrated high discriminatory capability in distinguishing benign from potentially malignant cystic renal masses as defined by the Bosniak Classification version 2019. If validated, CT texture-based machine learning algorithms may help reduce interreader variability when applying the Bosniak classification.
