Abstract
OBJECTIVES This study aimed to quantify the submandibular gland in suppurative sialadenitis, primary Sjögren's syndrome (pSS) and radiation-induced sialadenitis using the apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) for differential diagnosis. SUBJECTS AND METHODS This retrospective study included 16 patients with suppurative sialadenitis (n = 9), pSS (n = 3) and radiation-induced sialadenitis (n = 4) who underwent magnetic resonance imaging between June 2006 and May 2022. The ADC of the submandibular glands in each state was calculated, and the differences were analysed using a one-way analysis of variance and Tukey's post hoc test. Receiver operating characteristic curves were used to assess the ability of the ADC to distinguish each condition. Statistical significance was set at p < 0.05. RESULTS The mean ADC value (×10-3 mm2/s) ± standard deviation in the control (non-affected side of the suppurative sialadenitis group), suppurative sialadenitis, pSS and radiation-induced groups were 0.94 ± 0.16, 1.24 ± 0.16, 1.33 ± 0.13 and 1.5 ± 0.12, respectively (p < 0.001). The diagnostic value for distinguishing each group was ≥0.75. CONCLUSION ADC values are useful for quantitatively assessing and distinguishing submandibular glands in suppurative sialadenitis, primary Sjögren's syndrome and radiation-induced sialadenitis.

Value of magnetic resonance imaging and sialography of the parotid gland for diagnosis of primary Sjögren syndrome. Int J Rheum Dis 2023; 26:454-463. [PMID: 36502532 DOI: 10.1111/1756-185x.14528] [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: 07/29/2022] [Revised: 10/30/2022] [Accepted: 11/26/2022] [Indexed: 12/14/2022]
Abstract
AIM To evaluate the utility of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and magnetic resonance sialography (MRS) for diagnosis of primary Sjögren syndrome (pSS) singly or integrated with 2016 American College of Rheumatology (ACR)/European League Against Rheumatic Diseases (EULAR) classification criteria. METHODS The diagnostic efficiencies of MRI, MRS, and labial salivary gland biopsy (LSGB) were evaluated. The prediction model was established by multivariate analysis. Finally, performance of the ACR/EULAR criteria was evaluated after addition of MRI + MRS or replacement of original items by MRI + MRS. RESULTS The combined use of LSGB + MRI + MRS provided the greatest diagnostic value. MRI and MRS grade had positive correlations with disease duration and pathological grade of the labial gland (both P < 0.001). MRI and MRS grade had positive correlations with xerostomia severity and negative correlations with unstimulated salivary flow rate (both P < 0.001). The consistency of MRI grade and MRS grade in the diagnosis of parotid gland lesions was poor (κ = 0.253, P < 0.001). The diagnostic efficiency of our prediction model (AUC 0.906) was similar to that of criteria from the ACR/EULAR (AUC 0.930). Adding MRI + MRS to the ACR/EULAR criteria improved the sensitivity (92.3% vs 90.8%), whereas the specificity remained the same (88.9% vs 89.1%). Replacing LSGB by MRI + MRS in the ACR/EULAR criteria decreased both sensitivity and specificity (88.1% vs 90.8% and 86.4% vs 89.1%, respectively). CONCLUSION The combined application of MRI and MRS has ideal clinical application value in the diagnosis of early-stage pSS. Validity of the ACR/EULAR criteria remains high after incorporation of MRI + MRS.

Abstract
Objectives To assess non-invasive imaging for detection and quantification of gland structure, inflammation and function in patients with primary Sjogren's syndrome (pSS) using PET-CT with 11C-Methionine (11C-MET; radiolabelled amino acid), and 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose (18F-FDG; glucose uptake marker), to assess protein synthesis and inflammation, respectively; multiparametric MRI evaluated salivary gland structural and physiological changes. Methods In this imaging/clinical/histology comparative study (GSK study 203818; NCT02899377) patients with pSS and age- and sex-matched healthy volunteers underwent MRI of the salivary glands and 11C-MET PET-CT. Patients also underwent 18F-FDG PET-CT and labial salivary gland biopsies. Clinical and biomarker assessments were performed. Primary endpoints were semi-quantitative parameters of 11C-MET and 18F-FDG uptake in submandibular and parotid salivary glands and quantitative MRI measures of structure and inflammation. Clinical and minor salivary gland histological parameter correlations were explored. Results Twelve patients with pSS and 13 healthy volunteers were included. Lower 11C-MET uptake in parotid, submandibular and lacrimal glands, lower submandibular gland volume, higher MRI fat fraction, and lower pure diffusion in parotid and submandibular glands were observed in patients vs healthy volunteer, consistent with reduced synthetic function. Disease duration correlated positively with fat fraction and negatively with 11C-MET and 18F-FDG uptake, consistent with impaired function, inflammation and fatty replacement over time. Lacrimal gland 11C-MET uptake positively correlated with tear flow in patients, and parotid gland 18F-FDG uptake positively correlated with salivary gland CD20+ B-cell infiltration. Conclusion Molecular imaging and MRI may be useful tools to non-invasively assess loss of glandular function, increased glandular inflammation and fat accumulation in pSS.

Abstract
Primary Sjögren's syndrome (pSS) is an autoimmune disease, which involves salivary glands (SG) and extra glandular organs. Today, Sjögren's patients' diagnosis is based on classification criteria taking into account five objective tests, including histology, immunology, two ophthalmological tests, and salivary flow evaluation. To date, the challenge is to find the right imaging tool for diagnosis, follow up, and prognosis of pSS. The objective of this review is to describe as to what are these imaging modalities and particularly the place and validity of salivary glands ultrasonography (SGUS) in the diagnosis and follow-up strategy of patients with suspected pSS. Moreover, new noninvasive tools are emerging, including elastography, a new ultrasonography technique that provides an estimate of tissue elasticity, MRI, MR sialography, and 18 fluorodeoxyglucose-positron emission tomography. Although new imaging opportunities are available, SGUS should be the first-line choice in pSS because of its accessibility, feasibility over time, and sensitivity to change.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES/HYPOTHESIS To compare the results of magnetic resonance imaging with magnetic resonance sialography (MRSIAL) and the clinical and laboratory characteristics in a well-characterized cohort of patients with primary or secondary Sjögren's syndrome (SS) meeting the American-European Consensus Group criteria. STUDY DESIGN Retrospective, observational, monocentric study. METHODS Thirty-six patients (81% female, mean age = 48 ± 35 years) with primary or secondary SS who underwent MRSIAL were included in the study. RESULTS MRSIAL revealed characteristic radiological signs in the parotid, sublingual, and submandibular salivary glands in 35/36 patients (97%). Patients presenting with anti-Sjögren's syndrome-related antigen A (SSA) autoantibodies showed more often fatty infiltration, a "pepper-and-salt" appearance, ductal stenosis, and/or ductal dilation of the parotid gland (88%, 88%, and 72% respectively) than patients negative for anti-SSA (12%, 4%, and 28% respectively). MRSIAL demonstrated signs characteristic of SS in all 11 patients with negative minor salivary gland biopsy. For 15 patients undergoing ultrasound examination only, 11 (73%) had SS findings, but all 15 had SS findings on MRSIAL. Two cases of parotid lymphoma were detected by MRSIAL (6%). CONCLUSIONS MRSIAL is a reliable technique to detect glandular anomalies in patients with SS, and seems to provide a valuable aid in the diagnosis of SS.

Abstract
Sialadenitis is an inflammation or infection of the salivary glands that may affect the parotid, submandibular and small salivary glands. Imaging findings vary among unilateral or bilateral salivary gland enlargement, atrophy, abscess, ductal dilation, cysts, stones and calcification. Imaging can detect abscess in acute bacterial suppurative sialadenitis, ductal changes with cysts in chronic adult and juvenile recurrent parotitis. Imaging is sensitive for detection of salivary stones and stricture in obstructive sialadenitis. Immunoglobulin G4-sialadenitis appears as bilateral submandibular gland enlargement. Imaging is helpful in staging and surveillance of patients with Sjögren’s syndrome. Correlation of imaging findings with clinical presentation can aid diagnosis of granulomatous sialadenitis. Post-treatment sialadenitis can occur after radiotherapy, radioactive iodine or surgery.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) has been used to assess parotid gland abnormalities in Sjögren's syndrome (SS) patients; however, few data exist on the influence of region of interest (ROI) methods on ADC measurements. PURPOSE To assess the influence of ROI methods on ADC measurement, and their diagnostic ability in detecting parotid gland abnormalities in early SS patients. MATERIAL AND METHODS Thirteen early SS patients underwent parotid gland diffusion-weighted imaging scans at a 3.0 T MR unit. Two readers independently measured the parotid gland ADC value using three different ROIs (whole-gland [WG], single-slice [SS], and reader-based circular [RBC]). The ADC value based on three different ROIs (ADC-ROIWG, ADC-ROISS, ADC-ROIRBC) were compared between the SS group and a matched healthy control (HC) group (n = 19). Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves and intra-class correlation coefficients (ICC) were used to determine the diagnostic ability and reproducibility of the parameters. RESULTS The ADC-ROIWG, ADC-ROISS, and ADC-ROIRBC in the SS group were all significantly higher than those in HC group (all P < 0.05). The ADC-ROIWG showed better diagnostic ability than did ADC-ROIRBC (P = 0.0200), while no significant difference was found between ADC-ROIWG and ADC-ROISS (P = 0.4636). The ROIWG method showed the best inter- and intra-reader agreement (ICC, 0.902 and 0.928, respectively), followed by ROISS and ROIRBC. CONCLUSION The ROI methods can influence the parotid gland ADC measurements and their diagnostic ability. Considering our results, we suggest using in clinical practice single-slice ROIs to measure the ADC of the parotid gland.

Abstract
PURPOSE To explore the feasibility of parotid spin-lattice relaxation time in the rotating frame (T1ρ) MR imaging in the diagnosis of Sjögren's syndrome (SS) without morphological changes of the parotid glands. MATERIALS AND METHODS The study enrolled 32 consecutive SS patients without morphological changes of parotid glands and 32 age- and gender-matched healthy volunteers who underwent parotid 3.0 Tesla MR imaging, including T1ρ sequences. Follow-up imaging was performed at 3 months. T1 signal intensities and T1ρ values of bilateral parotid glands were compared using paired samples t-test. Parotid T1 signal intensities and T1ρ values were compared using two independent samples t-test. Diagnostic performance of the parotid T1ρ values was evaluated by receiver operating characteristic analysis. The intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC) was calculated to evaluate the reproducibility of parotid T1ρ measurements. RESULTS There were no significant differences of T1 signal intensities and T1ρ values between bilateral parotid glands in SS patients and healthy volunteers (P = 0.170, 0.886 and 0.942, 0.229). The parotid T1ρ values of SS patients (96.47 ± 15.38 ms) were significantly higher than those of healthy volunteers (84.25 ± 6.11 ms) (P < 0.001), while there were no significant differences of T1 signal intensities between SS patients and healthy volunteers (P = 0.655). With a cutoff value of 88.02 ms, the sensitivity and specificity of the parotid T1ρ value was 75.0% and 100.0% in the diagnosis of SS. The reproducibility of parotid T1ρ measurement was excellent (ICC: 0.934-0.995). CONCLUSION Parotid T1ρ MR imaging held a potential role in diagnosing SS without morphological changes of parotid glands. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE 2 J. Magn. Reson. Imaging 2017;45:1005-1012.
