Evaluation of the diagnostic value of 99mTc-MIBI SPECT positive tumor imaging and MRI in the recurrence or postoperative residual lesions of glioma / 实用医学杂志

Objective To evaluate the value of 99mTc-MIBI SPECT positive tumor imaging and MRI in the diagnosis of recurrence and postoperative residual of glioma. Methods Of 30 cases of glioma, 21 cases were residual or recurrent of glioma, while 9 cases were not, confirmed by pathology or follow-up. 99mTc-MIBI SPECT positive tumor imaging and MRI were performed on all patients. Results The sensitivity of 99mTc-MIBI SPECT positive tumor imaging (80.1%)was lower than that of MRI (90.5%) (χ2 = 0.006 4,P = 0.035), while the specificity of 99mTc-MIBI SPECT(88.9%) was much higher than that MRI(77.8%)(χ2= 3.827,P = 0.006). The accuracy in diagnosing residual or recurrent glioma between the two imaging has no significant difference. The sensitivity, specificity and accuracy were 95.2%, 100% and 93.3% when the two imaging methods were combined. Conclusions 99mTc-MIBI SPECT positive tumor imaging has higher specificity in the diagnosis of recurrence and postoperative residual of glioma. The combination of 99mTc-MIBI SPECT positive tumor imaging and MRI has great clinical significance.

The preliminary study of glioma recurrence and radiation-induced brain inj ury on high b-value DWI / 实用放射学杂志

Objective To evaluate which b value is the best to distinguish the glioma recurrence and radiation-induced brain injury using DWI when b value were at 1 000 s/mm2、3 000 s/mm2 and 5 000 s/mm2 respectively.Methods Retrospective analysis the DWI of 21 patients who suffered from glioma recurrence and radiation-induced brain injury obtained on a 3T MRI scanner.Results (1)All recurrent glioma (100%)showed hyper-intense signal,while most radiation-induced brain injury patients (80%)showed hypo-in-tense signal when b=5 000 s/mm2 .The sensitivity and specificity were high (100% and 80% respectively)when hyper-intense sig-nal was taken as a diagnostic point of glioma recurrence and radiation-induced brain injury.(2)The receiver operating characteristic (ROC)curve analysis suggested that the minimum ADC resulted in a highest sensitivity to differentiate glioma recurrence from radi-ation-induced brain injury when b=5 000 s/mm.Conclusion High b-value is more accurate to reflect cell density,and the minimum ADC is better to differentiate the glioma recurrence and radiation-induced brain injury when b=5 000 s/mm2 on DWI.
