Identifying perfusion deficits on CT perfusion images using temporal similarity perfusion (TSP) mapping.

ABSTRACT: OBJECTIVES:Deconvolution-derived maps of CT perfusion (CTP) data may be confounded by transit delays. We propose temporal similarity perfusion (TSP) analysis to decrease CTP maps' dependence on transit times and investigate its sensitivity to detect perfusion deficits. METHODS:CTP data of acute stroke patients obtained within 9 h of symptom onset was analyzed using a delay-insensitive singular value decomposition method and with TSP. The TSP method applies an iterative process whereby a pixel's highest Pearson's R value is obtained through comparison of a pixel's time-shifted signal density time-series curve and the average whole brain signal density time-series curve. Our evaluation included a qualitative and quantitative rating of deconvolution maps (MTT, CBV, and TTP), of TSP maps, and of follow-up CT. RESULTS:Sixty-five patients (mean 68 (SD 13) years, 34 male) were included. A perfusion deficit was identified in 90%, 86%, 65%, and 84% of MTT, TTP, CBV, and TSP maps. The agreement of MTT, TTP, and TSP with CT follow-up was comparable but noticeably lower for CBV. CBV had the best relationship with final infarct volume (R2?=?0.77, p?

Project description:Purpose To determine the improvement of radiologist efficiency and performance in the detection of bone metastases at serial follow-up computed tomography (CT) by using a temporal subtraction (TS) technique based on an advanced nonrigid image registration algorithm. Materials and Methods This retrospective study was approved by the institutional review board, and informed consent was waived. CT image pairs (previous and current scans of the torso) in 60 patients with cancer (primary lesion location: prostate, n = 14; breast, n = 16; lung, n = 20; liver, n = 10) were included. These consisted of 30 positive cases with a total of 65 bone metastases depicted only on current images and confirmed by two radiologists who had access to additional imaging examinations and clinical courses and 30 matched negative control cases (no bone metastases). Previous CT images were semiautomatically registered to current CT images by the algorithm, and TS images were created. Seven radiologists independently interpreted CT image pairs to identify newly developed bone metastases without and with TS images with an interval of at least 30 days. Jackknife free-response receiver operating characteristics (JAFROC) analysis was conducted to assess observer performance. Reading time was recorded, and usefulness was evaluated with subjective scores of 1-5, with 5 being extremely useful and 1 being useless. Significance of these values was tested with the Wilcoxon signed-rank test. Results The subtraction images depicted various types of bone metastases (osteolytic, n = 28; osteoblastic, n = 26; mixed osteolytic and blastic, n = 11) as temporal changes. The average reading time was significantly reduced (384.3 vs 286.8 seconds; Wilcoxon signed rank test, P = .028). The average figure-of-merit value increased from 0.758 to 0.835; however, this difference was not significant (JAFROC analysis, P = .092). The subjective usefulness survey response showed a median score of 5 for use of the technique (range, 3-5). Conclusion TS images obtained from serial CT scans using nonrigid registration successfully depicted newly developed bone metastases and showed promise for their efficient detection. © RSNA, 2017 Online supplemental material is available for this article.
