Abstract:
Objective To investigate the conventional and functional MRI features of primary central nervous system lymphoma (PCNSL).Methods The conventional MRI,DWI,1H-MRS and PWI data of 21 patients with PCNSL confirmed pathologically were analyzed retrospectively.Results There were 39 lesions in 21 cases.The mean ADC value of the PC-NSL lesions and the contralateral hemisphere normal white matter was (0.78±0.14) × 10 a mm2/s and (0.89 + 0.21) × 10-3 mm2/s,respectively.The difference of ADC value between PCNSL lesions and the contralateral hemisphere normal white matter was statistically significant (t=1.24,P＜0.05).Compared with the normal brain white matter,the PCNSL lesions showed abnormally high Cho/Cr ratio (4.62±2.05 vs 0.83±0.25),high Cho/NAA ratio (6.86±2.36 vs 0.63± 0.34) and low NAA/Cr ratio (0.67±1.73 vs 0.63±.034) on 1H-MRS (all P＜0.05).PCNSL lesions showed relatively low perfusion on PWI.And the cerebral blood volume of PCNSL lesion was lower than that of the surrounding normal brain parenchyma.Conclusion MR DWI,1H-MRS and PWI can reflect the features of PCNSL from different profiles.Combined with routine MRI signs,the accuracy of diagnosis can be further improved.
