Abstract
The purpose of this study was to examine whether the combined use of MR diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) parameters [DTI-apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC), fractional anisotropy (FA), axial diffusivity (AD), and radial diffusivity (RD)] could provide a more accurate diagnosis in differentiating between low-grade and atypical/anaplastic (high-grade) meningioma. Pathologically proven 45 meningioma patients [32 low-grade, 13 high-grade (11 atypical and 2 anaplastic)] who had received DTI before surgery were assessed retrospectively by 2 independent observers. For each lesion, MR DTI parameters (ADCmin, ADCmax, ADCmean, FA, AD, and RD) and ratios (rADCmin, rADCmax, rADCmean, rFA, rAD, and rRD) were calculated. When differentiating between low- and high-grade meningioma, the optimum cutoff values of all MR DTI parameters were determined by using receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analysis. Area under the curve (AUC) was measured with combined ROC analysis for different combinations of MR DTI parameters in order to identify the model combination with the best diagnostic accuracy in differentiation between low and high-grade meningioma. Although the ADCmin, ADCmax, ADCmean, AD, RD, rADCmin, rADCmax, rADCmean, rAD, and rRD values...Continue Reading
