  • Usefulness of Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy in the Differentiation of Neurinoma and Meningioma of the Cerebellopontine Angle

    摘要:目的: 探讨磁共振波谱(MRS)对鉴别桥小脑角神经鞘瘤与脑膜瘤的价值。 方法 :对8例神经鞘瘤和8例脑膜瘤病例进行MRI平扫和增强扫描,并采用点分辨波谱序列(PRESS,TR/TE=2000/136ms)进行单体素波谱分析。从事磁共振诊断专业的医师根据肿瘤的MRI及MRS表现特征进行鉴别诊断。 结果 :尽管多数神经鞘瘤(5/8)和脑膜瘤(6/8)具有典型的MRI表现特征并仅经MRI即可得到正确鉴别,但部分病例(5/16)为不典型表现者,如脑膜瘤呈长T1长T2信号并伴有囊变,以及神经鞘瘤呈等信号、均匀强化且不伴有囊变或内听道扩大者,鉴别诊断困难。MRS显示脑膜瘤的胆碱/肌酸比值(Cho/Cr)(2.74±1.47)略高于神经鞘瘤(2.70±1.21),但差异无统计学意义。丙氨酸(Ala)在脑膜瘤中的出现率(4/8)显著高于神经鞘瘤(0/8)(Plt;0.05),谷氨酸盐/谷氨酰胺(Glx)在脑膜瘤中的出现率(5/8)也高于神经鞘瘤(2/8);而肌醇(Ins)在神经鞘瘤中的出现率(4/8)高于脑膜瘤(2/8)。结合MRS表现,在MRI上尚难鉴别的病例可被明确诊断,并与最终病理结果相符。 结论 : MRI有助于多数桥小脑角神经鞘瘤与脑膜瘤的鉴别诊断,但对不典型病例有一定局限性;MRS对不典型病例的鉴别具有重要的参考价值。Abstract: Objective: To explore the value of magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS) in the differentiation of neurinoma and meningioma in the cerebellopontine angle. Methods : 16 cases, including 8 cases of meningiomas and 8 cases of neurinomas, underwent MRI (plan and gadoliniumenhanced scan) and singlevoxel proton MRS (PRESS series, TR/TE=2000/136ms). MRI and MRS results were reviewed and differential diagnoses were made by professional radiologists. Results : Although most cases (11/16) were typical and clearly classified on MRI, atypical cases were also observed, such as meningioma of long T1/T2 signal intensity with small cystic foci, and neurinoma of isointensity and homogenous enhancement without cystic change or enlargement of internal acoustic meatus. The choline to creatine ratio (Cho/Cr) of meningioma (2.74±1.47) was higher than that of neurinoma (2.70±1.21), however the difference was not significant (Pgt;0.05). Alanine was observed in 4/8 meningiomas but none of neurinomas (Plt;0.05), and glutamine/glutamate was more frequently visualized in meningiomas (5/8) than in neurinomas (2/8), whilemyoinositol was more frequently observed in neurinomas (4/8) than in meningiomas (2/8). With MRS, cases difficult to differentiate were clearly and correctly classified. Conclusion : Although most CPA neurinomas and meningiomas can be diagnosed by MRI, MRS is useful for the differential diagnosis of atypical cases.
