AbstractObjective To evaluate the application value of intravoxel incoherent motion diffusion weighted imaging (IVIM-DWI) and dynamic contrast enhancement MRI (DCE-MRI) in the prediction of the early efficacy of concurrent chemoradiotherapy (CCRT) for cervical squamous cell carcinoma. Methods Fifty patients with cervical squamous cell carcinoma confirmed by pathology were included. Before CCRT, IVIM-DWI and DCE-MRI were scanned, and the values of quantitative parameters including ADC, D, D* and f of IVIM-DWI and Ktrans, Kep, Ve and Vp of DCE-MRI before treatment were measured for all patients. MRI reexamination was performed 1 month after the end of CCRT, and all patients were divided into the cure group and the residual group according to the tumor remission. The parameters of IVIM-DWI and DCE-MRI before treatment were statistically compared between two groups. The optimal predictive parameters and predictive thresholds were determined by drawing the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve. Results Twenty-four patients were assigned into the cure group and twenty-six patients in the residual group. The ADC, D and Ve values before treatment in the cure group were significantly lower than those in the residual group (all P<0.05), whereas the f and Ktrans values were significantly higher than those in the residual group (both P<0.05). The other parameters did not significantly differ between two groups (all P>0.05). The area under ROC curve (AUC=0.823) of D value was the largest, followed by Ktransvalue (AUC=0.754). The combined prediction efficacy of D and Ktrans (AUC=0.867) was higher than that of either D or Ktrans alone. The sensitivity was 88.5%, 85.8% and 88.8%, and the specificity was 70.8%, 66.7% and 79.2%, respectively. Conclusions Quantitative parameters of IVIM-DWI and DCE-MRI before treatment have certain predictive value for the early efficacy of CCRT in cervical squamous cell carcinoma, among which the predictive efficacy of D value is the highest, and the combined application of D and Ktrans can improve the predictive efficacy.
