Analysis of postprocessing steps for residue function dependent dynamic susceptibility contrast (DSC)‐MRI biomarkers and their clinical impact on glioma grading for both 1.5 and 3T

Abstract: Background Dynamic susceptibility contrast (DSC)‐MRI analysis pipelines differ across studies and sites, potentially confounding the clinical value and use of the derived biomarkers. Purpose/Hypothesis To investigate how postprocessing steps for computation of cerebral blood volume (CBV) and residue function dependent parameters (cerebral blood flow [CBF], mean transit time [MTT], capillary transit heterogeneity [CTH]) impact glioma grading. Study Type Retrospective study from The Cancer Imaging Archive (TCIA)… Show more

“…Methodology for automatic segmentation of NAWM has recently been reported, demonstrating improvement over manually defined NAWM in the application of tumor grading. 34 Future studies would be helpful for comparing such methodology with standardization of rCBV, particularly for differentiating tumor from PTRE in the posttreatment setting. It will also be important to evaluate standardization and normalization methods with evolving consensus recommendations for DSC acquisition, such as with low-flip angle techniques.…”

“…Signal–time curves were plotted for each voxel for both HEPI-GRE and HEPI-SE data separately. We excluded voxels exhibiting a drop of fewer than 2 standard deviations of the baseline signal due to the contrast agent passing through, in both HEPI-GRE and HEPI-SE data, to minimize voxels with erroneous results [ 23 ]. Then, HEPI-GRE and HEPI-SE signal–time curves were converted to transverse relaxation rates of and ∆R 2 (t), respectively, using the following equations [ 13 ]: where TE is the echo time; S GRE (t) and S SE (t) are the signal–time curves of HEPI-GRE and HEPI-SE.…”

“…However, multi-echo instead of single-echo acquisitions and the use of a low flip angle without a preload dose have been proposed for leakage correction ( 72 , 93 ). Additionally, variation in post-processing methods and software modeling result in inconsistencies in rCBV calculation ( 88 , 94 ). A recently published set of consensus recommendations for a DSC protocol in HGG by Boxerman et al is a step toward increased standardization of the DSC technique in post-treatment glioma imaging ( 90 ).…”
