Abstract
INTRODUCTION Brain metastases (BMs) are common in lung cancer (LC) and are associated with poor prognosis. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) plays a vital role in the detection, diagnosis and management of BMs. This review summarises recent advances in MRI techniques for BMs from LC. METHODS This systematic review was conducted following the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines. A comprehensive literature search was conducted in three electronic databases: PubMed, Scopus and the Web of Science. The search was limited to studies published between January 2000 and March 2023. The quality of the included studies was evaluated using appropriate tools for different study designs. A narrative synthesis was carried out to describe the key findings of the included studies. RESULTS Sixty-five studies were included. Standard MRI sequences such as T1-weighted (T1w), T2-weighted (T2w) and fluid-attenuated inversion recovery (FLAIR) were commonly used. Advanced techniques included perfusion-weighted imaging (PWI), diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) and radiomics analysis. DWI and PWI parameters could distinguish tumour recurrence from radiation necrosis. Radiomics models predicted genetic mutations and the risk of BMs. Diagnostic accuracy was improved with deep learning (DL) approaches. Prognostic factors such as performance status and concurrent chemotherapy impacted survival. CONCLUSION Advanced MRI techniques and specialised MRI methods have emerging roles in managing BMs from LC. PWI and DWI improve diagnostic accuracy in treated BMs. Radiomics and DL facilitate personalised prognosis and treatment. Magnetic resonance imaging plays a key role in the continuum of care for BMs of patients with LC, from screening to treatment monitoring.

Magnetic resonance-based imaging biopsy with signatures including topological Betti number features for prediction of primary brain metastatic sites. Phys Eng Sci Med 2023; 46:1411-1426. [PMID: 37603131 DOI: 10.1007/s13246-023-01308-6] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/02/2023] [Accepted: 07/20/2023] [Indexed: 08/22/2023]
Abstract
This study incorporated topology Betti number (BN) features into the prediction of primary sites of brain metastases and the construction of magnetic resonance-based imaging biopsy (MRB) models. The significant features of the MRB model were selected from those obtained from gray-scale and three-dimensional wavelet-filtered images, BN and inverted BN (iBN) maps, and clinical variables (age and gender). The primary sites were predicted as either lung cancer or other cancers using MRB models, which were built using seven machine learning methods with significant features chosen by three feature selection methods followed by a combination strategy. Our study dealt with a dataset with relatively smaller brain metastases, which included effective diameters greater than 2 mm, with metastases ranging from 2 to 9 mm accounting for 17% of the dataset. The MRB models were trained by T1-weighted contrast-enhanced images of 494 metastases chosen from 247 patients and applied to 115 metastases from 62 test patients. The most feasible model attained an area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC) of 0.763 for the test patients when using a signature including features of BN and iBN maps, gray-scale and wavelet-filtered images, and clinical variables. The AUCs of the model were 0.744 for non-small cell lung cancer and 0.861 for small cell lung cancer. The results suggest that the BN signature boosted the performance of MRB for the identification of primary sites of brain metastases including small tumors.
