Abstract
Spinal metastasis (SMs) are the most encountered tumors of the spine. Their occurrence is expected roughly around one to two years after primary tumor diagnosis. Since the advent of Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI), this technology has been considered the gold standard for SMs diagnosis and characterization due to its precise ability to comprehend the rate of soft tissue compression/invasion (dural sac/nervous tissue), which is one of the main drivers of management strategies. Computed Tomography (CT) remains unbeatable when a detailed bony anatomy and instability assessment is searched. Nuclear medicine technologies may have a role in diagnosis when standard MR or CT study findings are inconclusive or when the extent of the systemic metastatic disease is studied. The main objective of this study is to offer an update on the epidemiology and radiology of spinal metastasis (SMs), endorsed by the WFNS Spine Committee. A systematic review of the literature of the last ten years gave 1531 results with "spine/spinal metastatic tumors/metastasis AND radiology OR imaging OR classification" as search strings in all fields, of which 56 papers were fully analyzed. The results were discussed and voted on in two consensus meetings of the WFNS (World Federation of Neurosurgical Societies) Spine Committee, reaching a positive or negative consensus using the Delphi method. The committee stated nine recommendations on two main topics: (1) Incidence and epidemiology of SMs; (2) Radiology and classifications of SMs.

Comprehensive Review of the Utility of Dynamic Contrast-Enhanced MRI for the Diagnosis and Treatment Assessment of Spinal Benign and Malignant Osseous Disease. AJNR Am J Neuroradiol 2024:ajnr.A8398. [PMID: 39481890 DOI: 10.3174/ajnr.a8398] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/19/2023] [Accepted: 06/12/2024] [Indexed: 11/03/2024]
Abstract
Conventional MRI is currently the preferred imaging technique for detection and evaluation of malignant spinal lesions. However, this technique is limited in its ability to assess tumor viability. Unlike conventional MRI, dynamic contrast-enhanced (DCE) MRI provides insight into the physiologic and hemodynamic characteristics of malignant spinal tumors and has been utilized in different types of spinal diseases. DCE has been shown to be especially useful in the cancer setting; specifically, DCE can discriminate between malignant and benign vertebral compression fractures as well as between atypical hemangiomas and metastases. DCE has also been shown to differentiate between different types of metastases. Furthermore, DCE can be useful in the assessment of radiation therapy for spinal metastases, including the prediction of tumor recurrence. This review considers data analysis methods utilized in prior studies of DCE-MRI data acquisition and clinical implications.

Dynamic 2-deoxy-D-glucose-enhanced multispectral optoacoustic tomography for assessing metabolism and vascular hemodynamics of breast cancer. PHOTOACOUSTICS 2023; 32:100531. [PMID: 37485041 PMCID: PMC10362308 DOI: 10.1016/j.pacs.2023.100531] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/13/2023] [Revised: 06/22/2023] [Accepted: 07/08/2023] [Indexed: 07/25/2023]
Abstract
Clinical tools for measuring tumor vascular hemodynamics, such as dynamic contrast-enhanced MRI, are clinically important to assess tumor properties. Here we explored the use of multispectral optoacoustic tomography (MSOT), which has a high spatial and temporal resolution, to measure the intratumoral pharmacokinetics of a near-infrared-dye-labeled 2-Deoxyglucose, 2-DG-800, in orthotropic 2-LMP breast tumors in mice. As uptake of 2-DG-800 is dependent on both vascular properties, and glucose transporter activity - a widely-used surrogate for metabolism, we evaluate hemodynamics of 2-DG-MP by fitting the dynamic MSOT signal of 2-DG-800 into two-compartment models including the extended Tofts model (ETM) and reference region model (RRM). We showed that dynamic 2-DG-enhanced MSOT (DGE-MSOT) is powerful in acquiring hemodynamic rate constants, including Ktrans and Kep, via systemically injecting a low dose of 2-DG-800 (0.5 µmol/kg b.w.). In our study, both ETM and RRM are efficient in deriving hemodynamic parameters in the tumor. Area-under-curve (AUC) values (which correlate to metabolism), and Ktrans and Kep values, can effectively distinguish tumor from muscle. Hemodynamic parameters also demonstrated correlations to hemoglobin, oxyhemoglobin, and blood oxygen level (SO2) measurements by spectral unmixing of the MSOT data. Together, our study for the first time demonstrated the capability of DGE-MSOT in assessing vascular hemodynamics of tumors.

Differentiation between spinal multiple myeloma and metastases originated from lung using multi-view attention-guided network. Front Oncol 2022; 12:981769. [PMID: 36158659 PMCID: PMC9495278 DOI: 10.3389/fonc.2022.981769] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/29/2022] [Accepted: 08/12/2022] [Indexed: 11/16/2022] Open
Abstract
Purpose Multiple myeloma (MM) and metastasis originated are the two common malignancy diseases in the spine. They usually show similar imaging patterns and are highly demanded to differentiate for precision diagnosis and treatment planning. The objective of this study is therefore to construct a novel deep-learning-based method for effective differentiation of two diseases, with the comparative study of traditional radiomics analysis. Methods We retrospectively enrolled a total of 217 patients with 269 lesions, who were diagnosed with spinal MM (79 cases, 81 lesions) or spinal metastases originated from lung cancer (138 cases, 188 lesions) confirmed by postoperative pathology. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) sequences of all patients were collected and reviewed. A novel deep learning model of the Multi-view Attention-Guided Network (MAGN) was constructed based on contrast-enhanced T1WI (CET1) sequences. The constructed model extracts features from three views (sagittal, coronal and axial) and fused them for a more comprehensive differentiation analysis, and the attention guidance strategy is adopted for improving the classification performance, and increasing the interpretability of the method. The diagnostic efficiency among MAGN, radiomics model and the radiologist assessment were compared by the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC). Results Ablation studies were conducted to demonstrate the validity of multi-view fusion and attention guidance strategies: It has shown that the diagnostic model using multi-view fusion achieved higher diagnostic performance [ACC (0.79), AUC (0.77) and F1-score (0.67)] than those using single-view (sagittal, axial and coronal) images. Besides, MAGN incorporating attention guidance strategy further boosted performance as the ACC, AUC and F1-scores reached 0.81, 0.78 and 0.71, respectively. In addition, the MAGN outperforms the radiomics methods and radiologist assessment. The highest ACC, AUC and F1-score for the latter two methods were 0.71, 0.76 & 0.54, and 0.69, 0.71, & 0.65, respectively. Conclusions The proposed MAGN can achieve satisfactory performance in differentiating spinal MM between metastases originating from lung cancer, which also outperforms the radiomics method and radiologist assessment.
