Abstract:
Objective To investigate the correlation between quantitative perfusion histogram parameters of DCE-MRI and tumor tissue microvessel density(MVD) in patients with lung cancer.Methods 30 patients with lung cancer confirmed by pathology who underwent preoperative DCE-MRI were enrolled in this retrospective study .Quantitative perfusion histogram pa-rameters( including median, mean, skewness, kurtosis, energy, entropy) were measured for each patient using Exchange mo-dle.Using the Immunohistochemical method to detect the expression of CD34 in tumor tissue, and counting the number of mi-crovessels under microscope.SPSS 19.0 was used to carry out statistical analysis.The correlation between MVD and quantita-tive perfusion histogram parameters of DCE-MRI measured by exchange model was evaluated by Pearson linear correlation anal-ysis.Results There was no significant difference in MVD and each quantitative perfusion histogram parameters between the three different pathological groups of lung cancer(P >0.05).Ktrans perfusion histogram parameters(mean, 25%, 50%, 50%, 75%, 90%, 95%), Kep perfusion histogram parameters(entropy, 10%, 25%, 50%, 75%, 90%), Fp perfusion histogram parameters( mean, 25%, 50%, 75%, 90%, 95%) and Vp perfusion histograms parameters ( entropy, 75%, 90%, 95% ) were positively correlated with MVD(P<0.05).Ktrans perfusion histogram parameters(energy) and Vp perfu-sion histogram parameters(skewness, kurtosis, energy) were negatively correlated with MVD(P<0.05).There was no signifi-cant correlation between Ve perfusion histogram parameters and MVD(P>0.05).Conclusion There was a certain correla-tion between the perfusion histogram parameters of DCE-MRI and MVD,suggesting that the quantitative perfusion histogram of DCE-MRI in lung cancer can reflect the MVD value of cancer tissue .
