ABSTRACT
PURPOSE:
To investigate the feasibility of whole-tumor apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) histogram analysis for improving the differentiation of endometriosis-related tumors seromucinous borderline tumor (SMBT), clear cell carcinoma (CCC) and endometrioid carcinoma (EC).METHODS:
Clinical features, solid component ADC (ADCSC) and whole-tumor ADC histogram-derived parameters (volume, the ADCmean, 10th, 50th and 90th percentile ADCs, inhomogeneity, skewness, kurtosis and entropy) were compared among 22 SMBTs, 42 CCCs and 21 ECs. Statistical analyses were performed using chi-square test, one-way ANOVA or Kruskal-Wallis test, and receiver operating characteristic curves.RESULTS:
A significantly higher ADCSC and smaller volume were associated with SMBT than with CCC/EC. The ADCmean was significantly higher in CCC than in EC. The 10th percentile ADC was significantly lower in EC than in SMBT/CCC. The 50th and 90th percentile ADCs were significantly higher in CCC than in SMBT/EC. For differentiating SMBT from CCC, AUCs of the ADCSC, volume, and 50th and 90th percentile ADCs were 0.97, 0.86, 0.72 and 0.81, respectively. For differentiating SMBT from EC, AUCs of the ADCSC, volume and 10th percentile ADC were 0.97, 0.71 and 0.72, respectively. For differentiating CCC from EC, AUCs of the ADCmean and 10th, 50th and 90th percentile ADCs were 0.79, 0.72, 0.81 and 0.85, respectively.CONCLUSION:
Whole-tumor ADC histogram analysis was valuable for differentiating endometriosis-related tumors, and the 90th percentile ADC was optimal in differentiating CCC from EC.Palavras-chave
