In contrast to its high sensitivity, its specificity for incidental small CLMs not detected at preablation cross-sectional imaging is believed to be low given the absence of specific imaging signatures and the common presence of pseudolesions. In this retrospective study of 22 patients (mean age, 55 years ± 10.6 [SD]; 63.6% male, 36.4% female) with CLMs undergoing CTHA-guided microwave percutaneous thermal ablation between November 2017 and October 2022, the authors provided a definition of incidental ring-hyperenhancing liver micronodules (RHLMs) and investigated whether there is a correlation of RHLMs with histologic analysis or intrahepatic tumor progression at imaging follow-up after applying a biomechanical deformable image registration method. The analysis revealed 25 incidental RHLMs in 41.7% (10 of 24) of the CTHA images from the respective guided ablation sessions. Of those, four RHLMs were ablated. Among the remaining 21 RHLMs, 71.4% (15 of 21) were confirmed to be CLM with either histology (<i>n</i> = 3) or imaging follow-up (<i>n</i> = 12). The remaining 28.6% (six of 21) of RHLMs were not observed at follow-up imaging. This suggests that RHLMs at CTHA may be an early indicator of incidental small CLMs. <b>Keywords:</b> Colorectal Neoplasms, Liver, Angiography, CT, Incidental Findings, Ablation <i>Supplemental material is available for this article.</i> © RSNA, 2024.</p>","PeriodicalId":20786,"journal":{"name":"Radiology.

Imaging is used at all stages of the pathway, such as local tumor staging/restaging, creating an imaging-based \"roadmap\" to plan surgery for optimal tumor clearance, identifying treatment-related complications, which may be suitable for radiology-guided intervention, and to detect recurrent or metastatic disease, which may be suitable for radiology-guided ablative therapies. Beyond-TME and exenterative surgery have gained acceptance as potentially curative procedures for advanced tumors. Understanding the role, techniques, and pitfalls of current imaging techniques is important for both radiologists involved in the treatment of these patients and general radiologists who may encounter patients undergoing surveillance or patients presenting with surgical complications or intercurrent abdominal pathology.

Materials and Methods Forty-three female adult Fischer rats were implanted with N1S1 or McA-RH7777 HCC tumors. In vivo lactate-to-pyruvate ratio (LPR) was measured with HP ¹³C MRI at 9.4 T. Ex vivo mass spectrometry was used to measure intratumoral metabolites, and Ki67 labeling was used to quantify proliferation. Tumors were first compared with three normal liver controls. The tumors were then compared with stimulated variants via off-target hepatic thermal ablation treatment. All comparisons were made using the Mann-Whitney test. Results HP ¹³C pyruvate MRI showed greater LPR in N1S1 tumors compared with normal liver (mean [SD], 0.564 ± 0.194 vs 0.311 ± 0.057; <i>P</i> < .001 [<i>n</i> = 9]), but not for McA-RH7777 (<i>P</i> = .44 [<i>n</i> = 8]). Mass spectrometry confirmed that the glycolysis pathway was increased in N1S1 tumors and decreased in McA-RH7777 tumors. The pentose phosphate pathway was also decreased only in McA-RH7777 tumors. Increased proliferation in stimulated N1S1 tumors corresponded to a net increase in LPR (six stimulated vs six nonstimulated, 0.269 ± 0.148 vs 0.027 ± 0.08; <i>P</i> = .009), but not in McA-RH7777 (eight stimulated vs six nonstimulated, <i>P</i> = .13), despite increased proliferation and metastases. Mass spectrometry demonstrated relatively increased lactate production with stimulation in N1S1 tumors only. Conclusion Two HCC subtypes showed divergent glycolytic dependency at baseline and during transformation to a high proliferation state. This metabolic heterogeneity in HCC should be considered with use of HP ¹³C MRI for diagnosis and tracking. <b>Keywords:</b> Molecular Imaging-Probe Development, Liver, Abdomen/GI, Oncology, Hepatocellular Carcinoma © RSNA, 2024 See also commentary by Ohliger in this issue.</p>","PeriodicalId":20786,"journal":{"name":"Radiology.

Materials and Methods Prospectively collected DCE MRI and ¹⁸F-FDG dbPET examinations were analyzed at baseline (T0) and after 3 weeks (T1) of NAC in 20 participants with 22 invasive breast cancers. FDG dbPET-derived standardized uptake value (SUV), metabolic tumor volume, and total lesion glycolysis (TLG) and MRI-derived percent enhancement (PE), signal enhancement ratio (SER), and functional tumor volume (FTV) were calculated at both time points. Differences between FDG dbPET and MRI parameters were evaluated after stratifying by receptor status, Ki-67 index, and residual cancer burden.

Materials and Methods This prospective study included 55 participants (21 with complete response [median age, 65 years {IQR: 47-80 years}, 20 male, one female; and 34 with incomplete response [median age, 59 years {IQR: 39-79 years}, 33 male, one female) with bulky node-positive HNSCC treated with curative-intent RT from January 2015 to October 2019. All participants received 70 Gy of radiation in 33-35 fractions over 6-7 weeks. US radiofrequency data from metastatic lymph nodes were acquired prior to and after 1 week of RT. QUS analysis resulted in five spectral maps from which mean values were extracted. We applied a gray-level co-occurrence matrix technique for textural analysis, leading to 20 QUS texture and 80 texture-derivative parameters. The response 3 months after RT was used as the end point. Model building and evaluation utilized nested leave-one-out cross-validation. Results Five delta (Δ) parameters had statistically significant differences (<i>P</i> < .05).

Materials and Methods This retrospective study involved the review of breast MRI and mammography examinations performed for evaluating disease extent in patients newly diagnosed with breast cancer from July 1, 2016, to September 30, 2019. Inclusion criteria were limited to patients with an index mass and the presence of NME extending directly from the mass margins. Wilcoxon rank sum test, Fisher exact test, and χ² test were used to analyze cancer, patient, and imaging characteristics associated with the NME diagnosis. Results Fifty-eight patients (mean age, 58 years ± 12 [SD]; all women) were included. Malignant pathologic findings for mass-associated NME occurred in 64% (37 of 58) of patients, 43% (16 of 37) with ductal carcinoma in situ and 57% (21 of 37) with invasive carcinoma. NME was more likely to be malignant when associated with an index cancer that had a low Ki-67 index (<20%) (<i>P</i> = .04). The presence of calcifications at mammography correlating with mass-associated NME was not significantly associated with malignant pathologic conditions (<i>P</i> = .19). The span of suspicious enhancement measured at MRI overestimated the true span of disease at histologic evaluation (<i>P</i> < .001), while there was no evidence of a difference between span of calcifications at mammography and true span of disease at histologic evaluation (<i>P</i> = .27). Conclusion Mass-associated NME at preoperative MRI was malignant in most patients with newly diagnosed breast cancer.
