Résumé

The aim of this study is to compare the diagnostic performance of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) against computed tomography (CT) in various aspects of local staging in colon cancer patients. This study was a prospective single arm diagnostic accuracy study. All consecutive adult patients with confirmed colon cancer that met the current criteria for surgical resection were considered as eligible. Diagnostic performance assessment included T (T1/T2 vs T3/T4 and < T3ab vs > T3cd) and N (N positive) staging, serosa and retroperitoneal surgical margin (RSM) involvement and extramural vascular invasion (EMVI). Imaging was based on a 3 Tesla MRI system and the evaluation of all sequences (T1, T2 and diffusion-weighted imaging-DWI series) by two independent readers. CT scan was performed in a 128 row multidetector (MD) CT scanner (slice thickness: 1 mm) with intravenous contrast. Pathology report was considered as the gold standard for local staging. Sensitivity (SE), specificity (SP), and area under the curve (AUC) were calculated for both observers. MRI displayed a higher diagnostic performance over CT in terms of T1/T2 vs T3/T4 (SE: 100% vs 83.9%, SP: 96.6% vs 81%, AUC: 0.825 vs 0.983, p < 0.001), N positive (p < 0.001) and EMVI (p = 0.023) assessment. An excellent performance of MRI was noted in the T3ab vs T3cd (CT AUC
