Abstrakt: Objective: This study aimed to evaluate the impact of temporal resolution on pharmacokinetic parameters and the performance in diagnosing breast cancer.
Methods: This prospective study included 89 consecutive patients with 97 lesions (76 malignant and 21 benign). Ultrafast dynamic contrast-enhanced (UF-DCE) imaging was performed on a 3-T MRI scanner using CAIPIRINHA-Dixon-TWIST-VIBE (CDTV) with a native temporal resolution of 4.5 s per phase. The CDTV data were downsampled at various temporal resolutions ranging from 9.0 to 58.5 s, creating eight additional datasets. Pharmacokinetic parameters, including K trans , k ep , and v e , were calculated using Tofts model and population-based arterial input function (AIF). Paired-sample t-test with Bonferroni correction and ROC curves were used for statistical analysis.
Results: As temporal resolution decreased from 4.5 s, K trans and k ep values increased, while v e values decreased. The AUCs of K trans , k ep , and v e at 4.5-s temporal resolution were 0.648, 0.778, and 0.685, respectively. Temporal resolutions shorter than 18 s showed less than a 10 % deviation in K trans and k ep of quantitative parameters compared to the 4.5-s reference. No significant difference was noted among AUC pairs for any of the parameters (corrected p > 0.00625).
Conclusions: Our results revealed that the temporal resolution significantly impacted pharmacokinetic parameters based on the population-based AIF from UF-DCE MRI. However, the diagnostic ability to characterize breast cancer might not be substantially affected. A temporal resolution shorter than 18 s is recommended for accurate calculation of pharmacokinetic parameters.
