MRI characteristics of proctitis in Crohn’s disease on perianal MRI
PURPOSE: Multiple features have been described for assessing inflammation in Crohn’s disease (CD) in MR enterography, but have not been validated in perianal magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Retrospectively, we studied which MRI features are valuable in assessing proctitis. MATERIALS AND METHODS: C...

description | PURPOSE: Multiple features have been described for assessing inflammation in Crohn’s disease (CD) in MR enterography, but have not been validated in perianal magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Retrospectively, we studied which MRI features are valuable in assessing proctitis. MATERIALS AND METHODS: CD patients (≥18 years) who underwent colonoscopy (reference standard) and perianal fistula MRI within 8 weeks were included. Seventeen MRI features were blindly scored by three observers and correlated to endoscopy (regression analysis). Reproducibility (multirater kappa, intraclass correlation coefficient) was determined for all three observer pairs. MRI features were considered relevant when significantly correlated to endoscopy for ≥2 observers, and reproducibility was ≥0.40 for ≥2 observer pairs. RESULTS: Perianal MRI of 58 CD patients were included. Wall thickness, rectal mural fat, creeping fat, and size of mesorectal lymph nodes showed a significant correlation with endoscopy for ≥2 observers (p = 0.000–0.023, p = 0.011–0.172, p = 0.007–0.011 and p = 0.000–0.005, respectively) with a kappa/intraclass correlation coefficient of ≥0.60 for ≥2 observer pairs. Perimural T2 signal and perimural enhancement significantly correlated to endoscopy (all p values ≤0.05) for all three observers and the reproducibility was ≥0.40 for ≥2 observer pairs. Mural T2 signal and degree and pattern of T1 enhancement showed significant correlation to endoscopy for two observers, but with poor to moderate reproducibility. CONCLUSION: Wall thickness, mural fat, and mesorectal features (perimural T2 signal, perimural enhancement, creeping fat, and size of mesorectal lymph nodes) had significant correlation to endoscopy and were reproducible in diagnosing proctitis. Some established luminal features in MRE were considered not useful. |
