Dynamic contrast-enhanced (DCE) MR imaging: the role of qualitative and quantitative parameters for evaluating prostate tumors stratified by Gleason score and PI-RADS v2
2020
Overview
PurposeTo investigate the role of qualitative and quantitative DCE-MRI parameters in prostate cancer (PCa) stratified by whole-mount histopathology (WMHP) Gleason score (GS) and PI-RADSv2.MethodsThis retrospective study included 323 PCa tumors in 254 men, who underwent 3T MRI prior to prostatectomy, 7/2009-12/2016. Qualitative DCE curve types included type 1 (progressive), type 2 (plateau) and type 3 (washout). Quantitative DCE-MRI pharmacokinetic (PK) parameters included Ktrans (influx volume transfer coefficient), Kep (efflux reflux rate constant) and iAUC (initial area under the curve). DCE-MRI features of true positive lesions were evaluated for overall, index, transition zone (TZ) and peripheral zone (PZ), based on GS grade (low = 6, high > 6) and PI-RADSv2 score using SPSSv24.ResultsThere were 57 (17.6%) low-grade and 266 (82.4%) high-grade PCa lesions. PI-RADSv2 3, 4 and 5 included 106, 120 and 97 lesions, respectively. 251 (77.7%) and 72 (22.3%) lesions were located in PZ and TZ, respectively. High-grade lesions had significantly higher proportion of Type 3 curves compared to low-grade lesions in overall (70.3% vs. 54.4%) and TZ (73.5% vs. 43.5%). As PI-RADSv2 increased, the proportion of type 3 curve significantly increased for overall (80.4–51.9%), index (80.4–54.7%) and PZ (78.7–52.1%) lesions. Among PK parameters, Ktrans (0.43 vs 0.32) and iAUC (8.99 vs 6.9) for overall PCa, Ktrans (0.43 vs 0.31) and iAUC (9 vs 6.67) for PZ PCa, and iAUC (8.94 vs 7.42) for index PCa were significantly higher for high-grade versus low-grade lesions. Also, Ktrans (0.51–0.34), Kep (1.75–1.29) and iAUC (9.79–7.6) for overall PCa, Ktrans (0.53–0.32), Kep (1.81–1.26) and iAUC (9.83–7.34) for PZ PCa; and Kep (1.79–1.17) and iAUC (11.3–8.45) for index PCa increased significantly with a higher PI-RADSv2 score.ConclusionsThe results of study show the possible utility of qualitative and quantitative DCE-MRI parameters for assessment of PCa GS and PI-RADSv2 categorization.
