ObjectivesTo investigate the value of combined 18F-fluorethyltyrosine-(FET)-PET/MRI for differentiation between recurrence and treatment-related changes in glioma patients.Methods63 lesions suggestive of recurrence in 47 glioma patients were retrospectively identified. All patients had a dynamic FET scan, as well as morphologic MRI, PWI and DWI on a hybrid PET/MRI scanner. Lesions suggestive of recurrence were marked. ROC analysis was performed univariately and on parameter combination.Results50 lesions were classified as recurrence, 13 as radiation necrosis. Diagnosis was based on histology in 23 and follow-up imaging in 40 cases. Sensitivities and specificities for static PET were 80 and 85%, 66% and 77% for PWI, 62 and 77% for DWI and 64 and 79% for PET time-to-peak. AUC was 0.86 (p < 0.001) for static PET, 0.73 (p = 0.013) for PWI, 0.70 (p = 0.030) for DWI and 0.73 (p < 0.001) for dynamic PET. Multiparametric analysis resulted in an AUC of 0.89, notably yielding sensitivity of 76% vs. 56% for PET alone at 100% specificity.ConclusionSimultaneous dynamic FET-PET/MRI was reliably feasible for imaging of recurrent glioma. While all modalities were able to discriminate between recurrence and treatment-related changes, multiparametric analysis added value especially when high specificity was demanded.
