Abstract

To assess the accuracy of MRI, using a pelvic phased-array coil and an endorectal coil, for preoperative local staging of rectal cancer. Fifty-one patients (26 males and 25 females) with adenocarcinoma of the rectum underwent preoperative MRI and surgical resection of their tumors. Surgical pathology staging was compared to MRI staging (using the TNM classification) obtained both retrospectively by a reader blinded to surgical findings and prospectively (radiological reports). In addition, patients were stratified according to surgical treatment groups (stage I = T1-2/N0, stage II = T3/N0, stage III = Tx/N1-2). At pathology, 36 of 51 (68%) tumors were classified as T0-T2, and 15 (32%) were classified as T3. Overall, the sensitivity and specificity of MRI readings for T3 staging were 93% and 86%, respectively (positive predictive value (PPV) = 74%, negative predictive value (NPV) = 97%, accuracy = 88%). MRI correctly predicted lymph node metastases in 11 of 13 patients with a sensitivity of 85% and specificity of 69% (PPV = 58%, NPV = 90%, accuracy = 74%). MRI correctly predicted surgical treatment groups in 33 of 39 (85%) patients. Interobserver agreement between the retrospective and prospective readings was excellent (kappa =...Continue Reading

Cajal Bodies & Gems

Cajal bodies or coiled bodies are dense foci of coilin protein. Gemini of Cajal bodies, or gems, are microscopically similar to Cajal bodies. It is believed that Cajal bodies play important roles in RNA processing while gems assist the Cajal bodies. Find the latest research on Cajal bodies and gems here.
