Fat-suppression T2 relaxation time and water fraction predict response to intravenous glucocorticoid therapy for thyroid-associated ophthalmopathy.
Objective: To investigate the value of fat-suppression (FS) T2 relaxation time (T2RT) derived from FS T2 mapping and water fraction (WF) derived from T2 IDEAL to predict the treatment response to intravenous glucocorticoids (IVGC) in patients with thyroid-associated ophthalmopathy (TAO) based on texture analysis.
Materials and methods: In this study, 89 patients clinically diagnosed with active and moderate-to-severe TAO were enroled (responsive group, 48 patients; unresponsive group, 41 patients). The baseline clinical characteristics and texture features were compared between the two groups. Multivariate analysis was performed to identify the independent predictors of treatment response to IVGC. ROC analysis and the DeLong test were used to assess and compare the predictive performance of different models.
Results: The responsive group exhibited significantly shorter disease duration and higher 90th percentile of FS T2RT and kurtosis of WF in the extraocular muscle (EOM) and 95th percentile of WF in the orbital fat (OF) than the unresponsive group. Model 2 (disease duration + WF; AUC, 0.816) and model 3 (disease duration + FS T2RT + WF; AUC, 0.823) demonstrated superior predictive efficacy compared to model 1 (disease duration + FS T2RT; AUC, 0.756), while there was no significant difference between models 2 and 3.
Conclusions: The orbital tissues of responders exhibited more oedema and heterogeneity. Furthermore, OF is as valuable as EOM for assessing the therapeutic efficacy of IVGC. Finally, WF derived from T2 IDEAL processed by texture analysis can provide valuable information for predicting the treatment response to IVGC in patients with active and moderate-to-severe TAO.
Clinical relevance statement: The texture features of FS T2RT and WF are different between responders and non-responders, which can be the predictive tool for treatment response to IVGC.
Key points: Texture analysis can be used for predicting response to IVGC in TAO patients. TAO patients responsive to IVGC show more oedema and heterogeneity in the orbital tissues. WF from T2 IDEAL is a tool to predict the therapeutic response of TAO.
期刊介绍：
European Radiology (ER) continuously updates scientific knowledge in radiology by publication of strong original articles and state-of-the-art reviews written by leading radiologists. A well balanced combination of review articles, original papers, short communications from European radiological congresses and information on society matters makes ER an indispensable source for current information in this field.
This is the Journal of the European Society of Radiology, and the official journal of a number of societies.
From 2004-2008 supplements to European Radiology were published under its companion, European Radiology Supplements, ISSN 1613-3749.
