摘要

ObjectivesTo evaluate whether amide proton transfer (APT) MRI can be used to characterize gliomas in pediatric patients and whether it provides added value beyond relaxation times.MethodsIn this prospective study, APT imaging and relaxation time mapping were performed in 203 pediatric patients suspected of gliomas from February 2018 to December 2019. The region of interest (ROI) in the tumor was automatically generated with artifact detection and ROI-shrinking algorithms. Several APT-related metrics (CESTR, CESTRnr, MTRRex, AREX, and APT#) and quantitative T1 and T2 were compared between low-grade and high-grade gliomas using the student’s t-test or Mann-Whitney U-test. The performance of these parameters was assessed using the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analysis. A stepwise multivariate logistic regression model was used to combine the imaging parameters.ResultsForty-eight patients (mean age: 6 ± 4 years; 23 males and 25 females) were included in the final analysis. All the APT-related metrics except APT# had significantly (p < 0.05) higher values in the high-grade group than the low-grade group. Under different ROI-shrinking cutoffs, the quantitative T1 (p = 0.045–0.200) and T2 (p = 0.037–0.171) values of high-grade gliomas were typically lower than those of low-grade ones. The stepwise multivariate logistic regression revealed that CESTRnr and APT# were combined significant predictors of glioma grades (p < 0.05), with an area under the ROC curve (AUC) of 0.86 substantially larger than those of T1 (AUC = 0.69) and T2 (AUC = 0.68).ConclusionsAPT imaging can be used to differentiate high-grade and low-grade gliomas in pediatric patients and provide added value beyond quantitative relaxation times.Key Points • Amide proton transfer (APT) MRI showed significantly (p < 0.05) higher values in pediatric patients with high-grade gliomas than those with low-grade ones. • The area under the curve was 0.86 for APT MRI to differentiate low-grade and high-grade gliomas in pediatric patients, which was substantially higher than that for quantitative T1 (0.69) and T2 (0.68). • APT MRI demonstrated added value beyond quantitative T1 and T2 mapping in characterizing pediatric gliomas.
