Histogram Analysis Parameters Apparent Diffusion Coefficient for Distinguishing High and Low-Grade Meningiomas: A Multicenter Study

Low grade meningiomas have better prognosis than high grade meningiomas. The aim of this study was to measure apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) histogram analysis parameters in different meningiomas in a large multicenter sample and to analyze the possibility of several parameters for predicting...

description Low grade meningiomas have better prognosis than high grade meningiomas. The aim of this study was to measure apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) histogram analysis parameters in different meningiomas in a large multicenter sample and to analyze the possibility of several parameters for predicting tumor grade and proliferation potential. Overall, 148 meningiomas from 7 institutions were evaluated in this retrospective study. Grade 1 lesions were diagnosed in 101 (68.2%) cases, grade 2 in 41 (27.7%) patients, and grade 3 in 6 (4.1%) patients. All tumors were investigated by MRI (1.5 T scanner) by using diffusion weighted imaging (b values of 0 and 1000 s/mm2). For every lesion, the following parameters were calculated: mean ADC, maximum ADC, minimum ADC, median ADC, mode ADC, ADC percentiles P10, P25, P75, P90, kurtosis, skewness, and entropy. The comparison of ADC values was performed by Mann–Whitney-U test. Correlation between different ADC parameters and KI 67 was calculated by Spearman's rank correlation coefficient. Grade 2/3 meningiomas showed statistically significant lower ADC histogram analysis parameters in comparison to grade 1 tumors, especially ADC median. A threshold value of 0.82 for ADC median to predict tumor grade was estimated (sensitivity = 82.2%, specificity = 63.8%, accuracy = 76.4%, positive and negative predictive values were 83% and 62.5%, respectively).All ADC parameters except maximum ADC showed weak significant correlations with KI 67, especially ADC P25 (P = −.340, P = .0001).
