Résumé

With fast-growing evidence in literature for clinical applications of chemical exchange saturation transfer (CEST) magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), this prospective study aimed at applying amide proton transfer-weighted (APTw) CEST imaging in a clinical setting to assess its diagnostic potential in differentiation of intracranial tumors at 3 tesla (T). Using the asymmetry magnetization transfer ratio (MTRasym) analysis, CEST signals were quantitatively investigated in the tumor areas and in a similar sized region of the normal-appearing white matter (NAWM) on the contralateral hemisphere of 27 patients with intracranial tumors. Area under curve (AUC) analyses were used and results were compared to perfusion-weighted imaging (PWI). Using APTw CEST, contrast-enhancing tumor areas showed significantly higher APTw CEST metrics than contralateral NAWM (AUC = 0.82; This prospective study confirmed the high diagnostic potential of APTw CEST imaging in a routine clinical setting to differentiate brain tumors.

BACKGROUND BACKGROUND
With fast-growing evidence in literature for clinical applications of chemical exchange saturation transfer (CEST) magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), this prospective study aimed at applying amide proton transfer-weighted (APTw) CEST imaging in a clinical setting to assess its diagnostic potential in differentiation of intracranial tumors at 3 tesla (T).
METHODS METHODS
Using the asymmetry magnetization transfer ratio (MTRasym) analysis, CEST signals were quantitatively investigated in the tumor areas and in a similar sized region of the normal-appearing white matter (NAWM) on the contralateral hemisphere of 27 patients with intracranial tumors. Area under curve (AUC) analyses were used and results were compared to perfusion-weighted imaging (PWI).
RESULTS RESULTS
Using APTw CEST, contrast-enhancing tumor areas showed significantly higher APTw CEST metrics than contralateral NAWM (AUC = 0.82;
CONCLUSIONS CONCLUSIONS
This prospective study confirmed the high diagnostic potential of APTw CEST imaging in a routine clinical setting to differentiate brain tumors.
