F]FDG-PET/CT and MRI for initial pelvic lymph node staging in patients with cervical carcinoma: The potential usefulness of [[.sup.18]F]FDG-PET/MRI

The current study aimed to determine the optimum diagnostic imaging technique out of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), [.sup.18]F-fludeoxyglucose positron emission tomography/computed tomography ([[.sup.18]F] FDG-PET/CT, otherwise known as PET/CT) and [[.sup.18]F] FDG-PET/MRI (otherwise known as PET...

description The current study aimed to determine the optimum diagnostic imaging technique out of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), [.sup.18]F-fludeoxyglucose positron emission tomography/computed tomography ([[.sup.18]F] FDG-PET/CT, otherwise known as PET/CT) and [[.sup.18]F] FDG-PET/MRI (otherwise known as PET/MRI) for the pelvic lymph node staging (N-staging) of untreated cervical carcinoma (CC). A total of 27 patients were included in the present study. All patients had undergone pre-treatment with PET/CT and MRI [less than or equal to]45 days prior to undergoing a lymphadenectomy. The results from PET (separated from PET/CT), MRI and the statistically combined results of (virtual) PET/MRI were compared to those from histological analyses (the gold standard). A per-patient-based analysis of the detection of pelvic lymph node metastases indicated that PET/MRI had a sensitivity of 64%. The specificity of PET/CT and MRI were 69 and 62%, respectively. The positive predictive value (PPV) was 69 and 64% for PET/CT and MRI, respectively. The negative predictive value (NPV) was 64 and 62% for PET/CT and MRI, respectively. The sensitivity of the PET-guided PET/MRI and the MRI-guided PET/MRI was 64% for both. The specificity of the PET-guided PET/MRI and the MRI-guided PET/MRI was 77 and 62%, respectively. The PPV was 75% for PET-guided PET/MRI and 64% for MRI-guided PET/MRI, and the NPV was 67 and 62%, respectively. PET/CT and the virtual PET/MRI exhibited the same low sensitivity (64%). PET/MRI exhibited slightly better results than PET/CT regarding specificity (77 vs. 69%, respectively), PPV (75 vs. 69%, respectively) and NPV (67 vs. 64%, respectively). The results of the present study suggested that PET/CT and MRI are not optimal diagnostic modalities, and that PET/MRI does not necessarily lead to better results than PET/CT, in the pelvic N-staging of CC.
