Methods Between January 2009 and October 2010, 28 patients with HCC underwent dynamic contrast-enhanced MRI and DWI before and after TACE 3-7 days, 1-2 months and 3-6 months, respectively, and the apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) value of the tumor were also measured at above mentioned time points. The sensitivity and specificity of dynamic contrast-enhanced MRI and DWI in diagnosis of residual tumor and recurrent cancer was qualitatively evaluated by comparing with the DSA results. Results Compared with DSA, the sensitivity and specificity of dynamic contrast-enhanced MRI were 90.0% and 96.9% by revealing the remnant and recurrence of HCC, while the sensitivity and specificity of DWI were 96.7% and 93.8% respectively. Combining dynamic contrast-enhanced MRI and DWI the sensitivity and specificity were improved to 100.0% and 99.5%, respectively. The mean ADC value of tumor before and after 3-7 days of TACE were (1.134±0.014)×10-3 and (1.162±0.016)×10-3 mm2/s, respectively. The mean ADC value of tumor without and with remnant and recurrence after 1-2 months and 3-6 months follow up were (1.175±0.015)×10-3, and (1.179±0.017)×10-3 mm2/s; (1.147±0.016)×10-3 and (1.142±0.012)×10-3 mm2/s, respectively. Conclusions Combining dynamic contrast-enhanced MRI and DWI could improve the sensitivity and specificity to detect the remnant and recurrence of HCC after TACE. Measuring the ADC value during follow up of HCC patients after TACE could predict the probability of tumor recurrence.

Methods Thirty-eight patients with endometrial carcinoma confirmed by surgicopathology undergone dynamic-enhanced MRI scans were analyzed retrospectively. The invasion in myometrium and uterine cervix were analyzed. The tumor and myometrium contrast-to-noise ratios during different phases of dynamic imaging were calculated. MR imaging findings were compared with pathologic findings. Sensitivity, specificity, diagnostic accuracy, positive and negative predictive values of MR imaging in depicting myometrial and cervical infiltration were calculated. Results Respective sensitivity, specificity, and positive and negative predictive values in assessing myometrial infiltration were 968%,85.7%,96.8%,85.7%;those for cervical infiltration were 85.7%,91.7%,85.7%,91.7%,respectively. The diagnostic accuracy (94.7%) of dynamic imaging in depicting deep myometrial infiltration were significantly higher than that of T2WI (78.9%) (Plt;0.05).There was a significant improvement in tumor and myometrium contrast-to-noise ratios during the equilibrium phase compared with the arterial and venous phases (Plt;0.01). Conclusion Dynamic-enhanced MRI is highly accurate in preoperative diagnosis of endometrial carcinoma, which will benefit for the treat of endometrial carcinoma.
ObjectiveTo compare the effectiveness of magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS) and Dynamic Contrast-enhancement (DCE-MRI) with 1.5 T MR scanner in diagnosing prostate cancer. MethodsFrom April 2011 to December 2012, based on the results of biopsy, we measured 216 regions of interest (ROIs) in images of MRS and DCE-MRI, comprised of 131 ROIs from cancer zone and 85 ROIs from non-cancer zone. The data were analyzed with statistical methods, including receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve. ResultsThere were significant differences between the malignant group and the benign group (P<0.05) in Cit integral, Cho integral, CC/Cit ratio, the type of time-signal intensity curve, initial value, enhancement rate and ratio of enhancement. According to ROC curve, the area under curve (AUC) of CC/Cit and enhancement rate was 0.853 and 0.719, respectively. AUC of time to peak, time difference, enhancement rate and Cit integral was lower than 0.400. The optimal operating point (OOP) of CC/Cit was 0.775, with a specificity of 0.85 and a sensitivity of 0.79, and the AUC was 0.853. The OOP of the ratio of enhancement was 60.89, with a specificity of 0.66 and a sensitivity of 0.71, and the AUC was 0.719. ConclusionMRS is more sensitive and specific than DCE-MRI to diagnose prostate cancer when an 1.5 T MR scanner is used. On the other hand, MRS is susceptible to interference, but DCE-MRI can make up for these deficiencies.
Objective To explore the differential diagnosis significance of 3.0T MRI united-sequences examination in the diagnosis of benign and malignant breast lesions. Methods A total of 67 breast lesions of 59 patients were collected prospectively, which be treated at the Sichuan Provincial People’s Hospital during July 2015 to January 2017. All patients were underwent bilateral breast 3.0T magnetic resonance plain scan, diffusion weighted imaging, and dynamic enhanced scan successively before surgical operation. Analysis of morphological features of the benign and malignant breast lesions, the time-signal intensity curve (TIC), the apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC), and the combination diagnosis of them were performed. Results Of all 59 patients, 67 lesions were confirmed by histopathology, including 18 benign lesions and 49 malignant lesions. The morphological features (including margin, shape, border, and evenness), the types of TIC of dynamic enhancement, and ADC value between the benign lesions and malignant lesions were statistically significant (P<0.05). The sensitivity and specificity of Fischer scoring system was 89.8% (44/49) and 61.1% (11/18) respectively. The sensitivity and specificity of TIC types was 83.7% (41/49) and 77.8% (14/18) respectively. The diagnostic threshold of ADC value was 1.012×10–3 mm2/s, with the sensitivity and specificity for the diagnosis was 91.8% (45/49) and 83.3% (15/18) respectively. The sensitivity and specificity of the combination of Fischer scoring system and TIC type for diagnosis between benign and malignant breast lesions was 95.9% (47/49) and 72.2% (13/18) respectively. The sensitivity and specificity of the combination of Fischer scoring system, TIC type, and ADC value for benign and malignant breast lesions was 98.0% (48/49) and 83.3% (15/18) respectively. Conclusion The combination of Fischer scoring system, TIC type, and diffusion-weighted imaging for the differential diagnosis between benign lesions and malignant lesions was more effective than single imaging method.
