Objective:To compare MRI characteristics between hepatic benign nodules and hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) associated with Budd-Chiari syndrome(BCS).Methods:A retrospective study was conducted on 130 consecutive patients with BCS who were treated at the Affiliated Hospital of Xuzhou Medical University from January 2011 to June 2018. There were 67 males and 63 females, age ranged from 18 to 78 years, with median age was 46 years. There were 45 patients with HCC and 85 patients with benign liver nodules. This study aimed to compare the clinical characteristics of BCS patients with HCC and benign nodules, and to compare the MRI features (distribution, capsule, plain scan signal, enhancement pattern) between HCC and benign nodules. The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was used to evaluate the efficacy of each of the indicators in the diagnosis of hepatocellular carcinoma.Results:The age and alpha-fetoprotein levels of the BCS patients with benign nodules were significantly lower than the BCS patients with HCC, while the international standardized ratio was significantly higher than the BCS patients with HCC (all P<0.05). Of the 130 BCS patients, there were 337 benign and 78 hepatocellular carcinomas nodules. The diameter of benign nodules was significantly smaller than HCC, and the proportions of benign nodules with encapsulation, fat content, cystic necrosis and hemorrhage were significantly lower than HCC (all P<0.05). The proportions of benign nodules with T 1 weighted imaging high signal, T 2 weighted imaging (T 2WI) low or equal signal and diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) equal signal were significantly higher than HCC (all P<0.05). The proportions of benign nodules with washout appearance, arterial phase hyperenhancement and washout appearance were significantly lower than HCC (all P<0.05). The areas under the ROC curve for the diagnosis of HCC by DWI high signal and T 2WI high signal were 0.936 and 0.927, respectively, with sensitivities of 96.2% and 92.3%, specificities of 91.0% and 90.1%, respectively. Conclusion:The MRI features of BCS patients with benign regenerative nodules were significantly different from those of BCS patients with HCC. The washout appearance had a low specificity for the diagnosis of HCC.

Objective To explore the value of multiple non-gaussian distribution models DWI in evaluating hepatic ischemia reperfusion injury (HIRI) model in rats.Methods Forty-two SD rats were divided into 7 groups by random numeric table method.Each group had 6 rats.The 7 groups were 6 h,12 h,1 d,3 d,7 d,14 d group after HIRI and control group,respectively.The experimental groups underwent right hepatic portal vein and hepatic artery ligation,and received reperfusion 3 h after operation.MRI scanning (T1WI,T2WI,single b-values DWI and 15 b-values DWI) was performed at 6 h,12 h,1 d,3 d,7 d and 14 d after reperfusion.The control group underwent sham operation and MRI scanning.According to monoexponential model,biexponential model,threxponential model,stretched-exponential model DWI and diffusion kurtosis imaging,many parametres were obtained and their dynamic changes at each time point were observed.The parameters included standard apparent diffusion coefficient (ADCs),pure diffusion coefficients (D),pseudodiffusion coefficients (D*),perfusion fraction (f),ultra-high apparent diffusion coefficient (ADCu),distributed diffusion coefficient (DDC),water diffusion heterogeneity index (or),mean diffusion coefficient (MD) and mean diffusion kurtosis (MK).One way ANOVA was used to compare the differences of parameters among different groups.Results MRI examination and pathological examination were successfully completed in all rats.The right hepatic lobe in the experimental groups appeared hypointense on T1WI and hyperintense on T2WI relative to control group from 6 h after operation.The infarcted liver lobe in the experimental groups became significantly smaller at 1 week after HIRI and almost disappeared at 2 weeks after HIRI.The findings of DWI at different b-values were consistent with those at T2WI.There were significant differences in parameters among 6 h,12 h,1 d,3 d,7 d,14 d groups after HIRI and control group (P＜0.05).There were significant differences among 12 h after HIRI,1 d after HIRI,3 d after HIRI and 6 h after HIRI,7 d after HIRI,14 d after HIRI,control group concerning ADCs values respectively (P＜0.05).There were significant differences among 6 h after HIRI,12 h after HIRI,1 d after HIRI,3 d after HIRI,7 d after HIRI and 14 d after HIRI,control group concerning D,D*,f,ADCu,α,DDC,MK values respectively (P＜0.05).In addition,there were significant differences among 1 d after HIRI,3 d after HIRI and 6 h after HIRI,12 h after HIRI,7 d after HIRI and 14 d after HIRI,control group concerning D values respectively (P＜0.05).There were significant differences among 6 h after HIRI,12 h after HIRI,1 d after HIRI,3 d after HIRI and 7 d after HIRI,14 d after HIRI,control group concerning f values respectively (P＜0.05).There were significant differences among 12 h after HIRI and 14 d after HIRI,control group concerning MD values respectively (P＜0.05).There were significant differences between 1 d after HIRI and 14 d after HIRI concerning MD values (P＜0.05).Conclusion Multiple non-gaussian distribution models DWI is superior to conventional DWI in evaluating HIRI model in rats.

Objective To compare the value of diffusion kurtosis imaging (DKI) model with single-index DWI model parameters in the differential diagnosis of benign and malignant breast lesions,and to explore the correlation between the parameters and molecular subtypes and prognostic factors of breast cancer.Methods A retrospective analysis was performed with inclusion of 64 cases of breast diseases from January 2016 to May 2017 in Shanghai First People's Hospital.The patients were pathologically confirmed and typed, 30 cases are malignant tumors and 34 cases are benign lesions. DKI and DWI were performed within 2 weeks before the pathological examination. Invasive ductal carcinoma of grade Ⅰ, Ⅱ and Ⅲ were revealed in 1, 7 and 13 cases respectively. Luminal A breast cancer was found in 10 cases, Luminal B breast cancer was diagnosed in 11 cases, HER-2 positive breast cancer was 4 cases and triple negative breast cancer was 5 cases. The expressions of estrogen receptor (ER), Progesterone receptor (PR), and HER-2 positive were found in 20, 14 and 15 cases respectively. Ki67 was highly expressed in 24 cases and low expression in 6 cases. All patients underwent both plain and enhanced mammography scanning. The kurtosis (MK), mean diffusivity (MD) and ADC value were measured. Prognosis analysis was performed according to the maximum diameter (>2 cm, ≤2 cm), vascular or neurological invasion (positive, negative), lymph node metastasis (positive, negative), ER (positive, negative), PR (positive, negative), HER-2 (positive, negative),Ki67 (positive, negative), pathological grade (grade Ⅰ+Ⅱ,Ⅲ). Two independent samples t test was used to compare DKI and DWI parameters between benign and malignant lesions. ROC analysis was performed for assessing the values of parameters in discriminating benign and malignant breast lesions. Mann-Whitney U and Kruskal-Wallis H tests were used for the comparison of various prognostic factors or molecular subtypes.Spearman rank correlation analysis was used to explore the correlation of different prognostic factors and DKI and DWI parameters. Results The MK value of malignant group was higher than that of benign group,and the MD value and ADC value were lower than that of benign group (P<0.05). The area under the ROC for MK, MD and ADC were 0.897, 0.827 and 0.776, respectively. The area under the ROC was improved to 0.935 when three parameters were combined. The MK of ER positive group was higher than that of negative group (P<0.05). There was no significant difference of parameters among the other prognostic groups (all P>0.05). There was a low positive correlation between ER and MK (r= 0.417, P= 0.022). There was no correlation between the other prognostic factors and parameters (r=－0.086 to 0.313, all P>0.05). There was no significant difference in the MD, MK and ADC values among the four different subtypes of breast cancer (all P>0.05). Conclusions MK, MD and ADC values can be used to discriminate benign and malignant breast tumors, among which MK value has the best diagnostic performance. There is a certain correlation between DKI model parameters and prognostic factors.

Objective To evaluate the diagnostic efficacy of MRI diffusion kurtosis imaging (DKI) and quantitative dynamic contrast enhancement MRI (DCE-MRI) in benign and malignant breast lesions, and to explore the differential diagnosis ability for different pathological types and molecular subtype lesions. Methods Sixty four females were retrospectively enrolled in the study of MRI diffusion kurtosis imaging and quantitative dynamic contrast enhancement between November 20 and May 2017. All of them were confirmed to have benign or malignant lesions after surgical resection or puncture. All patients underwent axial T1WI, DKI and DCE-MRI examinations. The mean kurtosis (MK) and mean diffusivity (MD) values were calculated by the DKI model, and the hemodynamic parameters were obtained by quantitative dynamic contrast enhancement, including volume transfer constant (Ktrans), rate constant (Kep), extravascular extracellular space distribute volume per unit tissue volume (Ve) and blood volume fraction (Vp). Pathological analysis was performed to monitor the expression of estrogen receptor (ER), progesterone receptor (PR), human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER-2) and nuclear proliferation index Ki67. The breast cancer was divided into Luminal A type, Luminal B type, HER-2 positive and triple-negative 4 subtypes. The differences of DKI parameters and DCE-MRI parameters between benign and malignant breast lesions were compared using two independent samples t test (normal distribution and homogeneity of variance) or Mann-Whitney U test (skewed distribution or variance). ROC analysis was used to evaluate the value of DKI and DCE-MRI parameters in differential diagnosis of benign and malignant breast lesions with pathological results as the gold standard. The Mann-Whitney U test and Kruskal-Wallis H test were used to compare the differences of DKI and DCE-MRI parameters among different prognostic factors and molecular subtypes of breast cancer. Spearman rank correlation analysis was used to evaluate the correlation between DKI and DCE-MRI parameters and different prognostic factors. Results Sixty-four cases were single lesions, with breast cancer in 23 cases and 41 cases of benign lesions. In breast cancer, there were 9 cases of Luminal A type, 7 cases of Luminal B type, 3 cases of HER-2 positive type and 4 cases of triple negative type. The positive numbers of ER, PR and HER-2 were 14, 11 and 10 cases respectively. Nineteen cases showed high expression of Ki67, while 4 cases showed low expression. There were significant differences in MK, MD, Ktrans and Kep between benign and malignant lesions (P<0.05). However, there was no significant difference between Ve and Vp (P>0.05). The area under the ROC for the differential diagnosis of benign and malignant breast lesions were 0.897, 0.808, 0.844 and 0.842, respectively. The combined multi-parameter differential diagnosis improved the efficacy. Combined with the above four parameters, the area under the ROC was 0.950. The diagnosis Sensitivity, specificity and accuracy were 0.870, 0.951 and 0.922 respectively. The Ktrans and Vp values of patients with ER positive and ER negative, as well as Ve value of deferent lymph node status, were significantly different (P<0.05), but there was no significant difference between the other prognostic factors (P>0.05). There was a moderate positive correlation between ER and Ktrans and Vp values. There was a low positive correlation between lymph node status and Ve value (r= 0.6, 0.5 and 0.4, respectively, P<0.05). No correlation was found among other parameters and prognostic factors (P>0.05). There were no significant differences in DKI and DCE-MRI parameters among different subtypes of breast cancer patients (all P>0.05). Conclusion DKI combined with DCE-MRI can improve the differential diagnosis of breast lesions and some DCE-MRI parameters are related to prognostic factors.

Objective To evaluate the feasibility of MRI-guided vacuum-assisted breast biopsy in domestic clinical prac tice.Methods A total of 45 patients with 45 suspicious breast lesions were examined with MRI-guided vacuum assisted bi opsy.The complications were observed.And the followed-up was performed.Results In 45 suspected breast lesions,43 lesions (43/45,95.56％) were successfully sampled under MRI-guided vacuum-assisted biopsy and the pathologic diagnosis was obtained.For another 2 lesions (2/45,4.44％),the pathology diagnosis were not obtained.The time to perform MRI-guided biopsy was (45.87±8.41)min for one lesion.The 5 malignant lesions (5/45,11.11％) confirmed by biopsy pathology were consistent with postoperative pathological results.For the 38 benign lesions (38/45,84.44％) confirmed by biopsy pathology,there was no malignant performance found in MRI follow-up for 6 months.Because of successful MR imaging-guided core biopsy findings,the clinic treatments were changed in 14 patients (14/45,31.11％).Five cases (5/45,11.11％) with malignant tumors were diagnosed early.The surgical biopsy was avoided in 9 benign cases (9/45,20.00 ％) who suspected as malignant.In all 45 patients,no complications occurred,such as hematoma and infection.Con clusion MRI-Guided vacuum-assisted breast biopsy is sufficient and safe for obtaining histologic proof of lesions,and plays an important role in guiding clinic treatment of some lesions visible only by MRI.
