Texture Analysis in the Assessment of Rectal Cancer: Comparison of T2WI and Diffusion-Weighted Imaging
Texture analysis (TA) techniques derived from T2-weighted imaging (T2WI) and apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) maps of rectal cancer can both achieve good diagnosis performance. This study was to compare TA from T2WI and ADC maps between different pathological T and N stages to confirm which TA a...

description | Texture analysis (TA) techniques derived from T2-weighted imaging (T2WI) and apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) maps of rectal cancer can both achieve good diagnosis performance. This study was to compare TA from T2WI and ADC maps between different pathological T and N stages to confirm which TA analysis is better in diagnosis performance. 146 patients were enrolled in this study. Tumor TA was performed on every patient's T2WI and ADC maps, respectively; then, skewness, kurtosis, uniformity, entropy, energy, inertia, and correlation were calculated. Our results demonstrated that those significant different parameters derived from T2WI had better diagnostic performance than those from ADC maps in differentiating pT3b-4 and pN1-2 stage tumors. In particular, the energy derived from T2WI was an optimal parameter for diagnostic efficiency. High-resolution T2WI plays a key point in the local stage of rectal cancer; thus, TA derived from T2WI may be a more useful tool to aid radiologists and surgeons in selecting treatment. |
