Abstract:
OBJECTIVE:Equivalent cross-relaxation rate imaging (ECRI) is an MRI technique used to evaluate qualitative changes in protein-water interactions. We aimed to prospectively evaluate the utility of ECRI for classification of adipocytic tumors. MATERIALS AND METHODS:Institutional Review Board approval was obtained and all patients provided informed consent. Study participants included 40 patients with adipocytic tumors who were diagnosed with lipomas (n=22), atypical lipomatous tissue/well-differentiated liposarcoma (ALT/WDL; n=9), myxoid/round cell liposarcoma (MyL; n=6), and dedifferentiated liposarcoma (DDL; n=3), and 20 control patients for whom subcutaneous fat in the buttock or thigh was analyzed. RESULTS:Mean ECR values of lipomas, ALT/WDL, and subcutaneous fat were low, and those of MyL and DDL were high. Mean ECR values of MyL and DDL were significantly higher than those of ALT/WDL. The cut-off value was 5.1%. There was a positive correlation between ECR value, pathological grade, and cell density in adipocytic tumors. CONCLUSION:The ECR value positively correlates with pathological grade and cell density of adipocytic tumors. Our findings suggest that ECRI is a useful method for preoperative evaluation of adipocytic tumors.
