[PMID: 39029603 DOI: 10.1016/j.mri.2024.07.010] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/09/2024] [Revised: 06/15/2024] [Accepted: 07/16/2024] [Indexed: 07/21/2024]
Abstract
OBJECTIVES To investigate the association of quantitative parameter (apparent diffusion coefficient [ADC]) from diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) and various quantitative and semiquantitative parameters from dynamic contrast-enhanced (DCE) magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) with Ki-67 proliferation index (PI) in cervical carcinoma (CC). METHODS A total of 102 individuals with CC who received 3.0 T MRI examination (DWI and DCE MRI) between October 2016 and December 2022 were enrolled in our investigation. Two radiologists separately assessed the ADC parameter and various quantitative and semiquantitative parameters including (volume transfer constant [Ktrans], rate constant [kep], extravascular extracellular space volume fraction [ve], volume fraction of plasma [vp], time to peak [TTP], maximum concentration [MaxCon], maximal slope [MaxSlope] and area under curve [AUC]) for each tumor. Their association with Ki-67 PI was analyzed by Spearman association analysis. Ki-67 PI discrepancy between low-proliferation and high-proliferation groups was subsequently analyzed. The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis utilized to identify optimal cut-off points for significant parameters. RESULTS Both ADC (ρ = -0.457, p < 0.001) and Ktrans (ρ = -0.467, p < 0.001) indicated a strong negative association with Ki-67 PI. Ki-67 PI showed positive correlations with TTP, MaxCon, MaxSlope and AUC (ρ = 0.202, 0.231, 0.309, 0.235, respectively; all p values<0.05). Compared with the low-proliferation group, high-Ki-67 group presented a significantly lower ADC (0.869 ± 0.125 × 10-3 mm2/s vs. 1.149 ± 0.318 × 10-3 mm2/s; p < 0.001) and Ktrans (1.314 ± 1.162 min-1vs. 0.391 ± 0.390 min-1; p < 0.001), also significantly higher MaxCon values (0.756 ± 0.959 vs. 0.422 ± 0.341; p < 0.05) and AUC values (2.373 ± 3.012 vs. 1.273 ± 1.000; p < 0.05). The cut-offs of ADC, Ktrans, MaxCon and AUC for discrimating low- and high-Ki-67 groups were 0.920 × 10-3 mm2/s, 0.304 min-1, 0.209 and 1.918, respectively. CONCLUSIONS ADC, Ktrans, TTP, MaxCon, MaxSlope and AUC are associated with Ki-67 PI. ADC and Ktrans exhibited high performance to discriminate low and high Ki-67 status of CC.

Abstract
Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is essential in the management of musculoskeletal (MSK) tumors. This review delves into the diverse MRI modalities, focusing on anatomical, functional, and metabolic sequences that provide essential biomarkers for tumor detection, characterization, disease extent determination, and assessment of treatment response. MRI's multimodal capabilities offer a range of biomarkers that enhance MSK tumor evaluation, aiding in better patient management.
