ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND:
Restriction spectrum imaging (RSI), as an advanced quantitative diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance imaging technique, has the potential to distinguish primary benign and malignant lung lesions.OBJECTIVE:
To explore how well the tri-compartmental RSI performs in distinguishing primary benign from malignant lung lesions compared with diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI), and to further explore whether positron emission tomography/magnetic resonance imaging (PET/MRI) can improve diagnostic efficacy. STUDY TYPE Prospective. POPULATION 137 patients, including 108 malignant and 29 benign lesions (85 males, 52 females; average age = 60.0 ± 10.0 years). FIELD STRENGTH/SEQUENCE T2WI, T1WI, multi-b value DWI, MR-based attenuation correction, and PET imaging on a 3.0 T whole-body PET/MR system. ASSESSMENT The apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC), RSI-derived parameters (restricted diffusion f 1 $$ {f}_1 $$ , hindered diffusion f 2 $$ {f}_2 $$ , and free diffusion f 3 $$ {f}_3 $$ ) and the maximum standardized uptake value (SUVmax) were calculated and analyzed for diagnostic efficacy individually or in combination. STATISTICAL TESTS Student's t-test, Mann-Whitney U test, receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves, Delong test, Spearman's correlation analysis. P < 0.05 was considered statistically significant.RESULTS:
The f 1 $$ {f}_1 $$ , SUVmax were significantly higher, and f 3 $$ {f}_3 $$ , ADC were significantly lower in the malignant group [0.717 ± 0.131, 9.125 (5.753, 13.058), 0.194 ± 0.099, 1.240 (0.972, 1.407)] compared to the benign group [0.504 ± 0.236, 3.390 (1.673, 6.030), 0.398 ± 0.195, 1.485 ± 0.382]. The area under the ROC curve (AUC) values ranked from highest to lowest as follows AUC (SUVmax) > AUC ( f 3 $$ {f}_3 $$ ) > AUC ( f 1 $$ {f}_1 $$ ) > AUC (ADC) > AUC ( f 2 $$ {f}_2 $$ ) (AUC = 0.819, 0.811, 0.770, 0.745, 0549). The AUC (AUC = 0.900) of the combined model of RSI with PET was significantly higher than that of either single-modality imaging.CONCLUSION:
RSI-derived parameters ( f 1 $$ {f}_1 $$ , f 3 $$ {f}_3 $$ ) might help to distinguish primary benign and malignant lung lesions and the discriminatory utility of f 2 $$ {f}_2 $$ was not observed. The RSI exhibits comparable or potentially enhanced performance compared with DWI, and the combined RSI and PET model might improve diagnostic efficacy. TECHNICAL EFFICACY Stage 2.
