Diagnostic performance of diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance imaging in differentiating human renal lesions (benignity or malignancy): a meta-analysis

Abstract: This meta-analysis indicated that DW-MRI had a relatively good diagnostic accuracy in differentiating malignant and benign human renal lesions. We preliminarily recommend that DW-MRI is performed with a maximum b value ranging from 800 to 1000 s/mm(2) at 3.0 T for imaging protocol, and that DW-MRI should be used with caution when the study population includes children.

“…Die Überschneidungsbereiche der ADC-Werte zwischen Nierenläsionen sindje nach Studieunterschiedlich groß. In einer Metaanalyse aus dem Jahr 2016 wurden die höchsten mittleren ADC-Werte für Zysten gemessen (mittlerer ADC-Wert 2,97), gefolgt von ▪ normalem Gewebe (mittlerer ADC-Wert 2,48), ▪ Onkozytomen (mittlerer ADC-Wert 2,04), ▪ Transitionalzellkarzinomen (mittlerer ADC-Wert 1,94), ▪ Nierenzellkarzinomen (mittlerer ADC-Wert 1,80) und ▪ Angiomyolipomen (mittlerer ADC-Wert 1,37) [28].…”

“…DWI is effective for the detection and differential (10,11). Low-b-value DWI has a high sensitivity for lesion detection (12,13), and the ADC is an important parameter reflecting the characteristics of a lesion.…”

“…Several studies have investigated the role of this imaging method in characterizing RCC. A meta-analysis of nine studies of DWI's ability to differentiate benign from malignant renal masses [29] demonstrated the significant difference of ADC, with pooled weighted sensitivity and specificity of 88% and 72%, respectively.…”
