ABSTRACT
PURPOSE:
We evaluated which phase was important to recognize local progression of an ablated zone after RFA on multiphase contrast-enhanced MRI (CE-MRI) in patients with unresectable lung malignancy. MATERIALS ANDMETHODS:
Twenty patients who had unresectable lung malignancy underwent multiphase CE-MRI examinations immediately after RFA. We evaluated the enhancement patterns of the ablated zone on multiphase CE-MRI type I, no enhancement of the ablated zone; type II, enhancement of the ablated margin; type III, heterogeneous enhancement of the ablated zone. We evaluated the association enhancement type with local progression of the ablated zone on the follow up CT using Spearman's ranked test.RESULTS:
In complete ablation, the enhancement pattern was types I (11.1%) or II (88.9%). In unsuccessfully treated, type II (57.1%) or III (42.9%) pattern observed in the arterial phase. However, types II (21.4%) and III (78.6%) observed in the venous, and types II (7.1%) and III (92.9%) observed equilibrium phases. Local progression of the ablated zone was associated with the enhancement pattern in equilibrium phases (r=0.8, p < .05).CONCLUSION:
Equilibrium phases on multiphase CE-MRI might play a more important role in evaluating an ablated zone for predicting local recurrence after RFA.
