Diagnostic Accuracy of T1-Weighted Dynamic Contrast-Enhanced-MRI and DWI-ADC for Differentiation of Glioblastoma and Primary CNS Lymphoma.

ABSTRACT: BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE:Glioblastoma and primary CNS lymphoma dictate different neurosurgical strategies; it is critical to distinguish them preoperatively. However, current imaging modalities do not effectively differentiate them. We aimed to examine the use of DWI and T1-weighted dynamic contrast-enhanced-MR imaging as potential discriminative tools. MATERIALS AND METHODS:We retrospectively reviewed 18 patients with primary CNS lymphoma and 36 matched patients with glioblastoma with pretreatment DWI and dynamic contrast-enhanced-MR imaging. VOIs were drawn around the tumor on contrast-enhanced T1WI and FLAIR images; these images were transferred onto coregistered ADC maps to obtain the ADC and onto dynamic contrast-enhanced perfusion maps to obtain the plasma volume and permeability transfer constant. Histogram analysis was performed to determine the mean and relative ADCmean and relative 90th percentile values for plasma volume and the permeability transfer constant. Nonparametric tests were used to assess differences, and receiver operating characteristic analysis was performed for optimal threshold calculations. RESULTS:The enhancing component of primary CNS lymphoma was found to have significantly lower ADCmean (1.1 × 10-3 versus 1.4 × 10-3; P < .001) and relative ADCmean (1.5 versus 1.9; P < .001) and relative 90th percentile values for plasma volume (3.7 versus 5.0; P < .05) than the enhancing component of glioblastoma, but not significantly different relative 90th percentile values for the permeability transfer constant (5.4 versus 4.4; P = .83). The nonenhancing portions of glioblastoma and primary CNS lymphoma did not differ in these parameters. On the basis of receiver operating characteristic analysis, mean ADC provided the best threshold (area under the curve = 0.83) to distinguish primary CNS lymphoma from glioblastoma, which was not improved with normalized ADC or the addition of perfusion parameters. CONCLUSIONS:ADC was superior to dynamic contrast-enhanced-MR imaging perfusion, alone or in combination, in differentiating primary CNS lymphoma from glioblastoma.

Project description:Background Dynamic contrast agent-enhanced (DCE) perfusion MRI may help differentiate between nonneoplastic and malignant lesions in the spine. Purpose To investigate the correlation between fractional plasma volume (Vp), a parameter derived from DCE perfusion MRI, and histopathologic diagnosis for spinal lesions. Materials and Methods In this retrospective study, patients who underwent DCE perfusion MRI and lesion biopsy between May 2015 and May 2018 were included. Inclusion criteria were short time interval (<30 days) between DCE perfusion MRI and biopsy, DCE perfusion MRI performed before biopsy, and DCE perfusion MRI performed at the same spine level as biopsy. Exclusion criteria were prior radiation treatment on vertebrae of interest, poor DCE perfusion MRI quality, nondiagnostic biopsy, and extensive spinal metastasis or prior kyphoplasty. One hundred thirty-four lesions were separated into a nonneoplastic group (n = 51) and a malignant group (n = 83) on the basis of histopathologic analysis. Two investigators manually defined regions of interest in the vertebrae. DCE perfusion MRI parameter Vp was calculated by using the Tofts pharmacokinetic two-compartment model. Vp was quantified, normalized to adjacent normal vertebrae, and compared between the two groups. A Mann-Whitney U test and receiver operating characteristic analysis was performed to verify the difference in Vp between the nonneoplastic and malignant groups. Reproducibility was assessed by calculating the Cohen κ coefficient. Results One hundred patients (mean age, 65 years ± 11 [standard deviation]; 52 men) were evaluated. Vp was lower in nonneoplastic lesions versus malignant lesions (1.6 ± 1.3 vs 4.2 ± 3.0, respectively; P < .001). The sensitivity of Vp was 93% (77 of 83; 95% confidence interval [CI]: 85%, 97%), specificity was 78% (40 of 51; 95% CI: 65%, 89%), and area under the receiver operating characteristic curve was 0.88 (95% CI: 0.82, 0.95). Cohen κ coefficient suggested substantial agreement in both intra- (κ = 0.72) and interreader (κ = 0.70) reproducibility. Conclusion This study indicated that dynamic contrast agent-enhanced perfusion MRI parameter, fractional plasma volume, was able to differentiate between nonneoplastic spinal lesions and malignant lesions. © RSNA, 2020 Online supplemental material is available for this article.

Project description:Background and purposeNo report has been published on the use of DSC MR imaging, DCE MR imaging, and DWI parameters in combination to create a prognostic prediction model in glioblastoma patients. The aim of this study was to develop a machine learning-based model to find preoperative multiparametric MR imaging parameters associated with prognosis in patients with glioblastoma. Normalized CBV, volume transfer constant, and ADC of the nonenhancing T2 high-signal-intensity lesions were evaluated using K-means clustering.Materials and methodsA total of 142 patients with glioblastoma who underwent preoperative MR imaging and total resection were included in this retrospective study. From the normalized CBV, volume transfer constant, and ADC maps, the parametric data were sorted using the K-means clustering method. Patients were divided into training and test sets (ratio, 1:1), and the optimal number of clusters was determined using receiver operating characteristic analysis. Kaplan-Meier survival analysis and log-rank tests were performed to identify potential parametric predictors. A multivariate Cox proportional hazard model was conducted to adjust for clinical predictors.ResultsThe nonenhancing T2 high-signal-intensity lesions were divided into 6 clusters. The cluster (class 4) with the relatively low normalized CBV and volume transfer constant value and the lowest ADC values was most associated with predicting glioblastoma prognosis. The optimal cutoff of the class 4 volume fraction of nonenhancing T2 high-signal-intensity lesions predicting 1-year progression-free survival was 9.70%, below which the cutoff was associated with longer progression-free survival. Two Kaplan-Meier curves based on the cutoff value showed a statistically significant difference (P = .037). When we adjusted for all clinical predictors, the cluster with the relatively low normalized CBV and volume transfer constant values and the lowest ADC value was an independent prognostic marker (hazard ratio, 3.04; P = .048). The multivariate Cox proportional hazard model showed a concordance index of 0.699 for progression-free survival.ConclusionsOur model showed that nonenhancing T2 high-signal-intensity lesions with the relatively low normalized CBV, low volume transfer constant values, and the lowest ADC values could serve as useful prognostic imaging markers for predicting survival outcomes in patients with glioblastoma.
