Abstract:
Objective To evaluate the value of DWI parameter ADC and intravoxel incoherent motion(IVIM) derived parameters in grading extrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma(EHCC).Methods Thirty-eight consecutive patients with surgically resected and pathologically confirmed EHCC while the minimum diameter of the lesions large than 5 mm were included in this retrospective study.Patients underwent upper abdomen 3.0 T MR(including conventional MRI and DWI scansequences).Importing original images into the IVIM post-processing software,each patient were set three times of ROIs and each time interval was one week.ROI were selected in the same position of the maximum solid part of lesions area,the average value of ADC,blood flow(BF),pure molecular diffusion(D),perfusion-based molecular diffusion(D*),perfusion fraction(f) were measured.According to WHO digestive tumor specimens grading method,divided these cases into Ⅰ,Ⅱ,Ⅲ grade group.Evaluate the association by Spearman correlation analysis and compare the diagnostic potential of parameters ADC、BF、D、D*、f by using ROC analysis.Results Thirty eight cases of EHCC include:grade Ⅰ 11 cases,grade Ⅱ] 15 cases and grade Ⅲ 12 cases.ADC values of these three groups were (1.33 ± 0.22) × 10-3,(1.21 ± 0.18) × 10-3,(0.98 ± 0.10) × 10-3mm2/s,respectively.BF values were (2.40± 1.01) × 10-3,(2.37± 1.19) × 10-3,(1.64±0.46) × 10-3mm2/s.D values were (1.30±0.13) × 10-3,(1.15 ±0.13) × 10-3,(0.87±0.11) × 10-3mm2/s.D* values were (5.67±0.70) × 10-3,(6.58 ± 1.82) × 10-3,(5.43±2.82) × 10-3mm2/s.And f values were (38.03± 10.02)%,(31.36±8.34)%,(22.04±7.93)%.ADC,D,and f values were significantly correlated with histologic grade(r=0.624,0.809,0.580;P<0.01,respectively).BF and D* were both not significantly correlated(r=0.271,0.017;P=0.099,0.920,respectively).Areas under the ROC curve for the five parameters ADC,BF,D,D*,f were 0.785,0.603,0.889,0.421,0.781,respectively.Conclusions With the reduction of histological differentiation degree,ADC,D,f values decreased.Correlation between f value and pathological differentiation degree is poor whie the correlation of D and ADC were excellent,and the correlation of D is the highest.
