RESUMO

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Outcome prediction of patients with glioma early after the completion of radiotherapy represents a major clinical challenge. Previously, the prognostic value of chemical exchange saturation transfer (CEST) imaging has been demonstrated in patients with newly diagnosed glioma. The objective of this study was to assess the potential of amide proton transfer (APT)-, relayed nuclear Overhauser effect (rNOE)- and semi-solid magnetization transfer (ssMT)-imaging according to Zhou et al. (APTwasym), Goerke et al. (MTRRexAPT, MTRRexNOE and MTRRexMT) and Mehrabian et al. (PeakAreaAPT, PeakAreaNOE and MTconst) for the prognostication of the overall survival (OS) of patients with glioma at the first follow-up after the completion of radiotherapy. MATERIALS AND METHODS: 49 of 72 participants with diffuse glioma, who underwent CEST MRI at 3T between July 2018 and December 2021 4 to 6 weeks after the completion of radiotherapy, were analyzed. Contrast-enhancing tumor (CE) and whole tumor (WT) volumes were segmented on T2w-FLAIR and contrast-enhanced T1w images. Kaplan-Meier analysis and logrank-test were used for statistical analyses. RESULTS: APTw imaging demonstrated the strongest association with OS (HR = 4.66, p < 0.001). The MTconst (HR = 2.54, p = 0.044) was associated with the OS of participants with residual contrast-enhancing glioma tissue, whilst the MTRRexAPT (HR = 2.44, p = 0.056) showed a trend in this sub-cohort. The MTRRexNOE, MTRRexMT and PeakAreaNOE were not associated with survival. CONCLUSION: Imaging of the APT and ssMT at the first follow-up 4 to 6 weeks after the completion of radiotherapy at 3T were associated with the overall survival of study participants with glioma.

RESUMO

Amide proton transfer (APT) and semi-solid magnetization transfer (ssMT) imaging can predict clinical outcomes in patients with glioma. However, the treatment of brain tumors is accompanied by the deposition of blood products within the tumor area in most cases. For this reason, the objective was to assess whether the diagnostic interpretation of the APT and ssMT is affected by methemoglobin (mHb) and hemosiderin (Hs) depositions at the first follow-up MRI 4 to 6 weeks after the completion of radiotherapy. A total of 34 participants underwent APT and ssMT imaging by applying reconstruction methods described by Zhou et al. (APTwasym), Goerke et al. (MTRRexAPT and MTRRexMT) and Mehrabian et al. (MTconst). Contrast-enhancing tumor (CE), whole tumor (WT), mHb and Hs were segmented on contrast-enhanced T1wCE, T2w-FLAIR, T1w and T2*w images. ROC-analysis, Kaplan-Meier analysis and the log rank test were used to test for the association of mean contrast values with therapy response and overall survival (OS) before (WT and CE) and after correcting tumor volumes for mHb and Hs (CEC and WTC). CEC showed higher associations of the MTRRexMT with therapy response (CE: AUC = 0.677, p = 0.081; CEC: AUC = 0.705, p = 0.044) and of the APTwasym with OS (CE: HR = 2.634, p = 0.040; CEC: HR = 2.240, p = 0.095). In contrast, WTC showed a lower association of the APTwasym with survival (WT: HR = 2.304, p = 0.0849; WTC: HR = 2.990, p = 0.020). Overall, a sophisticated correction for blood products did not substantially influence the clinical performance of APT and ssMT imaging in patients with glioma early after radiotherapy.
