Abstract
Ewing sarcoma (ES) is a malignant small round cell tumor, accounting for 10-15% of all primary bone tumors and approximately 3% of all pediatric cancers. Primary ES of the cranial bone is unusual with reported incidence from 1% to 6% of all ES cases. This report shows a rare case of primary ES of the squamous temporal bone in a 12-year-old boy with a history of swelling of the right temporal region and symptoms of increased intracranial pressure. We illustrate the extremely unusual radiological presentation of this primary ES of temporal bone associated with large aneurysmal bone cyst-like (ABC-like) changes. The boy was successfully treated according to Euro Ewing 2012 protocol. He is alive with no evidence of recurrence and metastasis after 16 months of completed treatment.

Abstract
Undifferentiated pleomorphic sarcoma (UPS) is the largest subgroup of soft tissue sarcomas. This study determined the value of perfusion-weighted imaging with dynamic-contrast-enhancement (PWI/DCE) morphologic, qualitative, and semiquantitative features for predicting UPS pathology-assessed treatment effect (PATE). This retrospective study included 33 surgically excised extremity UPS patients with pre-surgical MRI. Volumetric tumor segmentation from PWI/DCE was obtained at Baseline (BL), Post-Chemotherapy (PC), and Post-Radiation Therapy (PRT). The surgical specimens' PATE separated cases into Responders (R) (≥ 90%, 16 patients), Partial-Responders (PR) (89 - 31%, 10 patients), and Non-Responders (NR) (≤ 30%, seven patients). Seven semiquantitative kinetic parameters and maps were extracted from time-intensity curves (TICs), and 107 radiomic features were derived. Statistical analyses compared R vs. PR/NR. At PRT, 79% of R displayed a "Capsular" morphology (P = 1.49 × 10-7), and 100% demonstrated a TIC-type II (P = 8.32 × 10-7). 80% of PR showed "Unipolar" morphology (P = 1.03 × 10-5), and 60% expressed a TIC-type V (P = 0.06). Semiquantitative wash-in rate (WiR) was able to separate R vs. PR/NR (P = 0.0078). The WiR radiomics displayed significant differences in the first_order_10 percentile (P = 0.0178) comparing R vs. PR/NR at PRT. The PWI/DCE TIC-type II curve, low WiR, and "Capsular" enhancement represent PRT patterns typically observed in successfully treated UPS and demonstrate potential for UPS treatment response assessment.

Impact of Dynamic Contrast Enhanced and Diffusion-Weighted MR Imaging on Detection of Early Local Recurrence of Soft Tissue Sarcoma. J Magn Reson Imaging 2023; 57:622-630. [PMID: 35582900 DOI: 10.1002/jmri.28236] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/12/2022] [Revised: 05/03/2022] [Accepted: 05/05/2022] [Indexed: 01/20/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Diagnosis of residual or recurrent tumor in soft-tissue sarcomas (STS) is a differential diagnostic challenge since post-therapeutic changes impede diagnosis. PURPOSE To evaluate the diagnostic accuracy of quantitative dynamic contrast enhanced (DCE)-MRI and diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) to detect local recurrence of STS of the limb. STUDY TYPE Prospective. POPULATION A totalof 64 consecutive patients with primary STS of the limbs were prospectively included 3-6 months after surgery between January 2016 and July 2021. FIELD STRENGTH/SEQUENCE A 1.5 T; axial DWI echo-planar imaging sequences and DCE-MRI using a 3D T1-weighted spoiled gradient-echo sequence. ASSESSMENT The quantitative DCE-MRI parameters relative plasma flow (rPF) and relative mean transit time (rMTT) were calculated and ADC mapping was used to quantify diffusion restriction. Regions of interest of tumor growth and postoperative changes were drawn in consensus by two experts for diffusion and perfusion analysis. An additional morphological assessment was done by three independent and blinded radiologists. STATISTICAL TEST Unpaired t-test, ROC-analysis, and a logistic regression model were applied. Interobserver reliability was calculated using Fleiss kappa statistics. A P value of 0.05 was considered statistically significant. RESULTS A total of 11 patients turned out to have local recurrence. rPF was significantly higher in cases of local recurrence when compared to cases without local recurrence (61.1-4.5) while rMTT was slightly and significantly lower in local recurrence. ROC-analysis showed an area under the curve (AUC) of 0.95 (SEM ± 0.05) for rPF while a three-factor multivariate logistic regression model showed a high diagnostic accuracy of rPF (R2 = 0.71). Compared with morphological assessment, rPF had a distinct higher specificity and true positive value in detection of LR. DATA CONCLUSION DCE-MRI is a promising additional method to differentiate local recurrence from benign postoperative changes in STS of the limb. Especially specificity in detection of LR is increased compared to morphological assessment. EVIDENCE LEVEL 1 TECHNICAL EFFICACY: Stage 2.

Abstract
Osteosarcoma and Ewing sarcoma are the most common bone sarcomas in children. Their clinical presentation is very variable depending on the age of the patient and tumor location. MRI is the modality of choice to assess these bone sarcomas and has an important function at diagnosis and also for monitoring recurrence or tumor response. Anatomic sequences include T1- and T2-weighted images and provide morphological assessment that is crucial to localize the tumor and describe anatomical boundaries. Multiparametric MRI provides functional information that helps in the assessment of tumor response to therapy by using different imaging sequences and biomarkers. This review manuscript illustrates the role of MRI in osteosarcoma and Ewing sarcoma in the pediatric population, with emphasis on a functional perspective, highlighting the use of diffusion-weighted imaging and dynamic contrast-enhanced MRI at diagnosis, and during and after treatment.

Abstract
PURPOSE To perform a review of the physical basis of DTI and DCE-MRI applied to Peripheral Nerves (PNs) evaluation with the aim of providing readers the main concepts and tools to acquire these types of sequences for PNs assessment. The potential added value of these advanced techniques for pre-and post-surgical PN assessment is also reviewed in diverse clinical scenarios. Finally, a brief introduction to the promising applications of Artificial Intelligence (AI) for PNs evaluation is presented. METHODS We review the existing literature and analyze the latest evidence regarding DTI, DCE-MRI and AI for PNs assessment. This review is focused on a practical approach to these advanced sequences providing tips and tricks for implementing them into real clinical practice focused on imaging postprocessing and their current clinical applicability. A summary of the potential applications of AI algorithms for PNs assessment is also included. RESULTS DTI, successfully used in central nervous system, can also be applied for PNs assessment. DCE-MRI can help evaluate PN's vascularization and integrity of Blood Nerve Barrier beyond the conventional gadolinium-enhanced MRI sequences approach. Both approaches have been tested for PN assessment including pre- and post-surgical evaluation of PNs and tumoral conditions. AI algorithms may help radiologists for PN detection, segmentation and characterization with promising initial results. CONCLUSION DTI, DCE-MRI are feasible tools for the assessment of PN lesions. This manuscript emphasizes the technical adjustments necessary to acquire and post-process these images. AI algorithms can also be considered as an alternative and promising choice for PN evaluation with promising results.

Abstract
Sarcomas are heterogeneous and clinically challenging soft tissue and bone cancers. Although constituting only 1% of all human malignancies, sarcomas represent the second most common type of solid tumors in children and adolescents and comprise an important group of secondary malignancies. More than 100 histological subtypes have been characterized to date, and many more are being discovered due to molecular profiling. Owing to their mostly aggressive biological behavior, relative rarity, and occurrence at virtually every anatomical site, many sarcoma subtypes are in particular difficult-to-treat categories. Current multimodal treatment concepts combine surgery, polychemotherapy (with/without local hyperthermia), irradiation, immunotherapy, and/or targeted therapeutics. Recent scientific advancements have enabled a more precise molecular characterization of sarcoma subtypes and revealed novel therapeutic targets and prognostic/predictive biomarkers. This review aims at providing a comprehensive overview of the latest advances in the molecular biology of sarcomas and their effects on clinical oncology; it is meant for a broad readership ranging from novices to experts in the field of sarcoma.

Abstract
Functional imaging can add valuable information to conventional imaging in the settings of tumor characterization and treatment response assessment. Traditional response criteria rely primarily on physical measurements, while functional imaging can potentially give a more comprehensive evaluation of oncological status. The second part of this review article discusses advanced imaging techniques such as susceptibility-weighted imaging, tumor-associated macrophage imaging, diffusion-weighted imaging, perfusion-weighted imaging, Dixon imaging, whole-body magnetic resonance imaging, whole-body low-dose dual energy computed tomography with virtual noncalcium technique, and ultrasound elastography.

Abstract
Limb salvage surgery refers to orthopaedic procedures designed to resect tumors and reconstruct limbs. Improvements in managing malignant bone lesions have led to a dramatic shift in limb salvage procedures. Orthopaedic surgeons now employ four main reconstructive procedures: endoprosthesis, autograft, bulk allograft, and allograft prosthetic composite. While each approach has its advantages, each technique is associated with complications. Furthermore, knowledge of procedure specific imaging findings can lead to earlier complication diagnosis and improved clinical outcomes. The aim of this article is to review leading reconstructive options available for limb salvage surgery and present a case series illustrating the associated complications.

Abstract
Soft-tissue sarcomas in children comprise a heterogeneous group of entities with variable manifestation depending on the age of the patient and the location of the tumor. MRI is the modality of choice for evaluating musculoskeletal soft-tissue tumors and plays a paramount role in both initial diagnosis and assessment of tumor response during and after treatment. Conventional MRI sequences, such as T1- and T2-weighted imaging, offer morphologic information, which is important for localizing the lesion and describing anatomic relationships but not accurate for determining its malignant or benign nature and may be limited in differentiating tumor response from therapy-related changes. Advanced multiparametric MRI offers further functional information that can help with these tasks by using different imaging sequences and biomarkers. The authors present the role of MRI in rhabdomyosarcoma and other soft-tissue sarcomas in children, emphasizing a multiparametric approach with focus on the utility and potential added value of diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) and dynamic contrast-enhanced MRI in characterization and staging, determination of pretreatment extent, and evaluation of tumor response and recurrence after treatment. ©RSNA, 2020.

Abstract
Imaging evaluation of soft tissue tumors is important for the diagnosis, staging, and follow-up. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is the preferred imaging modality due to its multiplanarity and optimal tissue contrast resolution. However, standard morphological sequences are often not sufficient to characterize the exact nature of the lesion, addressing the patient to an invasive bioptic examination for the definitive diagnosis. The recent technological advances with the development of functional MRI modalities such as diffusion-weighted imaging, dynamic contrast-enhanced perfusion imaging, magnetic resonance spectroscopy, and diffusion tensor imaging with tractography have implemented the multiparametricity of MR to evaluate in a noninvasive manner the biochemical, structural, and metabolic features of tumor tissues. The purpose of this article is to review the state of the art of these advanced MRI techniques, with focus on their technique and clinical application.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE This study aimed to investigate the application of 3D computed tomography (CT) angiography with a novel post-processing technique in diagnosis of malignant bone tumors in children. METHODS Twenty-seven pediatric patients (15 males and 12 females; average age: 10±3.4 years old, with a range from 2 months to 14 years old) with suspected bone tumors were evaluated histopathologically using 3D CT angiography and a multislice scanner. CT angiography image data were analyzed with a novel post-processing technique that included separating, fusing opacifying false-coloring, and volume rendering. RESULTS Among 27 cases, 20 (74%) osteosarcoma, 6 (22%) Ewing's sarcoma, and 1 (4%) non-Hodgkin lymohoma were diagnosed by histological examination of surgical specimens. The tumor features, including size, location, invasion into the adjacent tissue as well as distant metastases, were clearly visualized with the regular volume rendering method and rotational and stereoscopical videos. The post-processing technique provided the reconstructed structure images without any overlap or shelter independently and collectively. Special colors represented different tissue structures, aiding in identification of various anatomical structures and pre-surgical planning. CONCLUSIONS Compared to traditional 3-D CT methods, 3-D CT angiography with rotational and stereoscopical videos provides more detailed information of bone tumor lesions. It offers a superior and effective imaging technique in pediatric patients with malignant bone tumors.

Abstract
Posttreatment imaging of primary bone tumours represents a diagnostic challenge for radiologists. Depending on the primary bone tumour common radiological procedures, such as radiography, computed tomography (CT), and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), are employed. Radiography and CT are particularly useful in benign bone tumours and in matrix-forming bone tumours. MRI comes into consideration with malignant tumour recurrence and tumoral soft tissue infiltration. Bone scintigraphy is of superior importance if a primarily multifocal manifestation of bone tumour or metastasizing tumour disease is suspected. Molecular imaging (FDG-PET and hybrid imaging, using CT) are gaining increasing importance in light of monitoring neoadjuvant chemotherapy and detecting recurrent tumour appearance. The current literature shows sensitivity and specificity values for recurrent detection of up to 92% and 93%. Diagnostic accuracy is as high as 95%, thus, exceeding accuracy values for CT (67%) and MRI (86%) by far. Likewise, this is also applicable for the assessment of the neoadjuvant chemotherapy. Moreover, PET-based modalities are able to establish prognostic statements using SUV-threshold values at baseline (especially for Ewing sarcomas). Advanced imaging techniques have made a great diagnostic step forward and have proven to be relevant and reproducible with respect to both relapse detection and treatment assessment. Furthermore, it is not clear whether a higher detection rate of early tumour recurrence will inevitably lead to better outcome and survival.

Abstract
AIM To determine the diagnostic value of combined diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) with dynamic contrast enhancement magnetic resonance imaging (DCE-MRI) in differentiating malignant from benign bone lesions. MATERIALS AND METHODS DWI and DCE-MRI were performed in 36 patients (14 were benign and 22 were malignant). The mean apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) values and signal enhanced extent (SEE), slope value, and time-signal intensity curve (TIC) type were recorded by two observers. Between-group comparison was made using the independent sample t-test and receiver-operating characteristic (ROC) analysis. RESULTS There was a significant difference between the mean ADC value of the benign ([1.75±0.50]×10-3 mm2/s) and malignant ([1.11±0.47]×10-3 mm2/s) groups (p=0.001). The threshold ADC value of ≤1.10×10-3 mm2/s resulted in a sensitivity of 77.3%, a specificity of 92.9%, and an accuracy of 85.1%. A type III curve was found in 23 cases (21 malignant and two benign), a type II curve was seen in six cases (one malignant and five benign), and a type I curve in seven cases (all were benign). The SEE and slope values in the benign and malignant groups were 227.96±172.08, 325.60±125.86 (p=0.058); 0.97±0.67%/s, 3.19±3.20%/s (p=0.016), respectively. ROC analysis showed a sensitivity of 95.5%, a specificity of 85.7%, and an accuracy of 90.6% for malignancy, based on a slope cut-off value of >1.46%/s. Combining ADC and slope values resulted in a sensitivity of 100%, a specificity of 85.7%, and an accuracy of 92.9%. CONCLUSIONS Both DWI and DCE-MRI showed promising results for differentiating malignant from benign bone lesions. A combination of DWI and DCE-MRI was the most valuable of the three.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Imaging criteria for measuring the response of desmoid fibromatosis to systemic therapy are not well established. We evaluated a series of patients with desmoids who underwent systemic therapy to document magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) features associated with a positive clinical response. MATERIALS AND METHODS This Institutional Review Board-approved retrospective study included 23 patients (mean age 40.5) with 29 extra-abdominal tumors. Therapeutic regimens included cytotoxic chemotherapy (n = 19), targeted therapy (n = 3), and nonsteroid anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDS; n = 1). Clinical effects were categorized as progressive disease, stable, or partial response. Maximum tumor dimension (Dmax), approximate tumor volume (VTumor), and quantitative tumor T2 hyperintensity and contrast enhancement (relative to muscle) for pre- and post-treatment MRIs were compared. RESULTS Three lesions progressed, 5 lesions were stable, whereas 21 showed a clinical response. Dmax decreased more in responders (mean -11.0 %) than in stable/progressive lesions (mean -3.6 and 0 % respectively, p = 0.28, ANOVA); by Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST 1.1) 27 out of 29 lesions were "stable," including the 3 progressive lesions. In responders, VTumor change averaged -29.4 %, but -19.2 % and +32.5 % in stable and progressive lesions respectively (p = 0.002, ANOVA); by 3D criteria 14 out of 29 lesions showed a partial response. T2 hyperintensity decreased by 50-54 % in partial response/stable disease, but only by 10 % in progressive lesions (p = 0.049, t test). Changes in contrast enhancement ranged from -23 % to 0 %, but were not statistically significant among response groups (p = 0.37). Change in T2 hyperintensity showed a positive correlation with volumetric change (r = 0.40). CONCLUSION Decreases in volume and T2 hyperintensity reflect the positive response of desmoid fibromatosis to systemic therapy; RECIST 1.1 criteria are not sensitive to clinically determined tumor response.
