dc.description.abstractObjectives: The purpose of this study was to preliminarily compare unenhanced arterial spin-labeled (ASL) imaging, dynamic susceptibility contrast-enhanced cerebral blood volume (DSCE-CBV) magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) for evaluation of tumor perfusion in patients with brain tumors. Materials and methods: A total of 27 patients with brain tumors were examined in 1,5 T MRI. Single phase and multiphase ASL, DSCE-CBV examinations were assessed by both qualitative and quantitative analysis for the detection of malignancy. Imaging results were correlated with a histopathology or follow-up. Results: Based on 31 studies in 27 patients with brain tumors, the visual inspection sensitivities for ASL and dynamic DSC perfusion imaging were 88% and 94%, respectively, with 100% specificity for both. On qualitative evaluation, sensitivities for ASL and DSC perfusion imaging perfusions were 88% and 94%, respectively, with 100% specificity for both. The highest sensitivity values for quantitative ASL imaging were obtained using a normalized cut-off ratio of 1.65, resulting in sensitivity of 94% for ASL imaging and cut-off ratio of 1.95 and sensitivity 94% for DSCE-CBV imaging. Conclusion: The present study revealed similar sensitivity and specificity for both multhiphase ASL and DSC MRI. Thus, we suggest that ASL perfusion can be used in daily clinical practice.
