RESUMO

PURPOSE: To evaluate the effect of deep learning reconstruction (DLR) on vascular depiction, tumor enhancement, and image quality of computed tomography hepatic arteriography (CTHA) images acquired during transcatheter arterial chemoembolization (TACE). METHODS: Institutional review board approval was obtained. Twenty-seven patients (18 men and 9 women, mean age, 75.7 years) who underwent CTHA immediately before TACE were enrolled. All images were reconstructed using three reconstruction algorithms: hybrid-iterative reconstruction (hybrid-IR), DLR with mild strength (DLR-M), and DLR with strong strength (DLR-S). Vascular depiction, tumor enhancement, feeder visualization, and image quality of CTHA were quantitatively and qualitatively assessed by two radiologists and compared between the three reconstruction algorithms. RESULTS: The mean signal-to-noise ratios (SNR) of sub-segmental arteries and sub-sub-segmental arteries, and the contrast-to-noise ratio (CNR) of tumors, were significantly higher on DLR-S than on DLR-M and hybrid-IR (P < 0.001). The mean qualitative score for sharpness of sub-segmental and sub-sub-segmental arteries was significantly better on DLR-S than on DLR-M and hybrid-IR (P < 0.001). There was no significant difference in the feeder artery detection rate of automated feeder artery detection software among three reconstruction algorithms (P = 0.102). The contrast, continuity, and confidence level of feeder artery detection was significantly better on DLR-S than on DLR-M (P = 0.013, 0.005, and 0.001) and hybrid-IR (P < 0.001, P = 0.002, and P < 0.001). The weighted kappa values between two readers for qualitative scores of feeder artery visualization were 0.807-0.874. The mean qualitative scores for sharpness, granulation, and diagnostic acceptability of CTHA were better on DLR-S than on DLR-M and hybrid-IR (P < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS: DLR significantly improved the SNR of small hepatic arteries, the CNR of tumor, and feeder artery visualization on CTHA images. DLR-S seems to be better suited to routine CTHA in TACE than does hybrid-IR.

RESUMO

A man in his 80s was admitted to our hospital with a chief complaint of bloody stools. He was diagnosed with cT2N0M0, cStage Ⅰ rectal cancer. As the patient was of advanced age and had multiple comorbidities, definitive chemoradiotherapy was administered. Immediately after treatment, the patient achieved a complete clinical response, and recurrence has not been detected for 2 years and 3 months since treatment.
