Abstract:
Objective To evaluate the combined application of the maximum standardized uptake value (SUVmax) of 68Ga-N,N'-bis (2-hydroxy-5-(carboxyethyl) benzyl) ethylenediamine-N,N'-diacetic acid (HBED-CC)-(Ahx) Lys-CO-Glu (PSMA-11) PET/CT imaging and the apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) value of MRI in the differential diagnosis of prostate cancer (PCa).Methods Seventy untreated patients (age:(68.3± 12.1) years) with suspected PCa between December 2016 and April 2018 were prospectively studied.All patients underwent PET/CT and MRI examinations.The SUVmax and average ADC value were measured as diagnostic parameters,and the SUVmax/ADC ratio was calculated.The sensitivity and specificity of the 3 parameters were calculated by receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis.Results Of the 70 patients,31 were pathologically diagnosed as benign diseases and 39 were as PCa.The diagnostic sensitivity and specificity of average ADC value for PCa were 81% and 72%,respectively,with a threshold value of 1.08× 10-3 mm2/s (b=1 000 s/mm2).The diagnostic sensitivity and specificity of SUVmax were 82% and 71% for PCa with a critical value of 7.69,and those were 72% and 93% with SUVmax/ADC ratio of 11.87.Conclusion The combination of 68Ga-PSMA-11 PET/CT and MRI can improve the diagnostic specificity for PCa,and the SUVmax/ADC ratio is a valuable differential diagnostic index.
