RESUMEN
The fifth edition of the World Health Organization (WHO) Classification of Tumors of the Central Nervous System (WHO CNS5) features several changes in the classification, diagnostic criteria, nomenclature, and grading of diffuse gliomas. Adult-type diffuse gliomas are genetically defined and include astrocytoma, isocitrate dehydrogenase (IDH)-mutant, oligodendroglioma, IDH-mutant and 1p/19q codeleted, and glioblastoma, IDH-wildtype. This review briefly discusses two tumor types: astrocytoma, IDH-mutant, and oligodendroglioma, IDH-mutant and 1p/19q codeleted, with emphasis on relevant changes in their classification and defining molecular genetic alterations. A simplified approach to the diagnosis of these tumors is provided.
RESUMEN
Objective To investigate the value of intravoxel incoherent motion (IVIM)and three-dimensional arterial spin labeling (3D-ASL)technique in preoperative grading diffuse gliomas.Methods Thirty-one patients with diffuse gliomas proved by pathology were enrolled,including 12 cases with low grade gliomas and 19 cases with high grade gliomas.All patients underwent 3D-ASL and IVIM examination before operation.Original dates were disposed in particular software,then the images of cerebral blood flow (CBF), D? and D were obtained,and ROI were selected and relevant parameter values were calculated.The parameter values were analyzed in SPSS,and unpaired two-tailed student t test were performed to compare parameter values between two groups.P＜0.05 was regarded as statistically significant. ROC analysis curves were performed to acquire optimum threshold value,sensibility and specificity of each parameter.Finally,the sensibility and specificity of the associating screening of 3D-ASL and IVIM were obtained.Results The CBF and relative CBF(rCBF) values of high grade gliomas group [(103.89±27.00)mL/min?100 g and (4.28±0.63)mL/min?100 g]were significantly higher than those of low grade gliomas group [(63.96±22.17)mL/min?100 g and (2.72±0.84)mL/min?100 g];The D? and relative D?(rD?) values of high grade gliomas group [(3.82 ± 0.60 )mm2/s and 1.9 5 ± 0.30 ]were significantly higher than those of low grade gliomas group [(2.54±0.50)mm2/s and 1.28±0.14],the D and relative D (rD)values of high grade gliomas group [(0.58±0.12)mm2/s and 2.40±0.49]were significantly lower than those of low grade gliomas group [(0.75±0.12)mm2/s and 3.1 1±0.42](P＜0.05). Statistical analysis in ROC demonstrated AUC value of 0.879 and 0.917 for CBF and rCBF,optimum threshold value of 79.24 mL/min?100 g and 2.85,sensibility of 84.2% and 100%,specificity of 83.3%and 83.3%;AUC value of 0.925,0.846,0.956 and 0.882 for D?,D ,rD? and rD ,optimum threshold value of 2.95 mm2/s, 0.63 mm2/s,1.40 and 2.95,sensibility of 94.7%,91.7%,94.7%and 75%,specificity of 83.3%,73.3%,91.7% and 94.7%.The sensibility and specificity of the associating screening of 3D-ASL and IVIM were 100% and 9 1.7%.Conclusion IVIM and 3D-ASL can be used to grade diffuse gliomas,and the values of rCBF,rD? and rD are optimal indicator.Combination of IVIM and 3D-ASL can improve the sensibility and specificity of grading diffuse gliomas.
