東京大学大学院医学系研究科の研究グループは、難治性不妊症である着床不全患者を対象に、妊娠成立に関与する子宮因子を評価する人工知能(AI)モデルを開発した。年齢などの臨床情報に加え、子宮蠕動運動を可視化するcine MRI画像を統合解析することで、臨床情報のみのモデルより妊娠予測精度が有意に向上した。従来は観察者依存性が高く標準化が困難だった子宮蠕動評価について、本モデルは客観的かつ再現性のある指標化を可能にすることを示した。子宮機能に基づく個別化医療の実現や、着床不全に対する新たな診断・治療戦略の確立への貢献が期待される。

ABSTRACT

Purpose

Recurrent implantation failure (RIF) is a form of refractory infertility that persists despite assisted reproductive technology. Cine magnetic resonance imaging (cine MRI) enables the visualization of uterine peristalsis; however, its use in RIF assessment is limited due to the lack of a standardized application method. This study aimed to develop pregnancy prediction models for patients with RIF and to evaluate the utility of cine MRI image analysis using artificial intelligence (AI).

Methods

We retrospectively analyzed the anonymized clinical data and cine MRI images of 188 patients with RIF and known pregnancy outcomes. Two types of models, based on clinical data only or both clinical data and cine MRI images, were built using the Random Forest model. The best model was identified using the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC), accuracy, sensitivity, and specificity.

Results

Higher performance was achieved using the Random Forest model integrating clinical data and cine MRI images (AUC/accuracy/sensitivity/specificity: 0.835, 0.754, 0.879, and 0.583, respectively), outperforming models using clinical data only (0.617, 0.596, 0.697, and 0.458, respectively).

Conclusions

AI analysis of clinical data combined with cine MRI data improved pregnancy prediction, suggesting that cine MRI can be used to evaluate uterine factor-related RIF.
