Objective:To discuss the computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance (MR) imaging features of primary adrenal cortical carcinoma (PACC) and improve the imaging diagnostic level of primary adrenocortical carcinoma.Methods:The imaging features of 15 patients with biopsy or pathology confirmed PACC were retrospectively analiezed. There were 12 patients underwent CT examination, 7 patients underwent MR examination, and 4 patients underwent CT and MR exminations.Results:All of 15 PACCs were unilateral (10 on the right, 5 on the left). The maximum diameters of the lesions ranged from 4.4 to 15.1 (8.9±3.3)cm. The shape of the tumor was oval in 6 cases and irregular in 9 cases. CT findings: 1 cases showed homogeneous density and 11 cases were heterogeneous attenuation (including 2 cases with hemorrhage and 1 case with fat) on plain scan. The CT values of triple-phase of PACC ranged from 28.8 to 62.0(39.2±8.5)HU, 32.7 to 83.4(52.5±14.4)HU and 43.4 to 86.4(61.1±15.0)HU respectively. All cases showed mild (7 cases) and moderate (4 cases) gradual enhancement, only one case excluded. MRI findings: inhomogeneous mild and moderate enhancement were detected in 6 cases and homogeneneous enhancement was found in 1 case. The solid parts of PACC showed iso-signal intensity in T1WI, hyper-signal intensity in T2WI and diffusion limited in the diffusion weighted imaging (DWI). There were 14 cases of vascular shadow in 15 patients, and 3 cases of involvement and metastasis of surrounding tissues and organs.Conclusions:PACC often present as a big solitary heterogenous mass with necrotic area, hemorrhage and intratumoral vascular. The mild to moderate heterogenous gradual enhancement can be seen after the contrast.

Objective To evaluate the feasibility and dosimetric features of a volume modulated arc therapy (VMAT)-configured model in knowledge-based optimization of fixed-field dynamic intensitymodulated radiotherapy (IMRT) plans based on the Varian RapidPlan system.Methods ① A dose-volume histogram prediction model was trained with 81 qualified preoperative VMAT plans for rectal cancer and then statistically verified.② For clinically approved 10 IMRT plans with the same dose prescription,the above model was used to automatically generate new optimization parameters and dynamic muhileaf collimator (MLC) sequences with field geometry and beam energy unchanged.③ In order to rule out the disparities between different versions,a single algorithm was used to calculate the absolute doses of the original and new plans.④ Statistical analyses were performed on dosimetric parameters after comparable target dose coverage was achieved in the two plans by appropriate normalization.Results On the basis of similar target dose homogeneity and coverage,RapidPlan significantly reduced the doses to the urinary bladder (D50% by 9.01 Gy,P =0.000;Dmean by 8.08 Gy,P =0.005) and the femoral head (D50% by 4.20 Gy,P =0.000;Dmean by 3.84 Gy,P=0.005) but significantly elevated the mean total number of monitor units (1211±99 vs.771±79,P=0.000) and the number of fields with multiple MLC carriage groups.The knowledge-based semi-automated optimization caused a significantly larger number of high-dose hotspots but a similar D2% (52.54 vs.52.71 Gy,P=0.239).Conclusions The VMAT model can be used for the knowledge-based semi-automated optimization of IMRT plans to enhance the efficiency and OAR protection.However,the resulting high-dose hotspots need further manual intervention.
