ABSTRACT
Objective To explore the feasibility of diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) in assessing the efficacy of chemoradiotherapy for cervical cancer.Methods Data of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and DWI were analyzed in 32 patients with uterine cervical cancer received conventional prior to chemoradiotherapy and after 1 and 3 months of therapy.13 cases of normal controls also had been examed by MRI and DWL DWI with b values of (0,300) s/mm2 and b values of (0,600) s/mm2 were performed in all patients.Pretreatment post-treatmentADC values were compared between the health group and patients group.Results When the b =300 s/mm2,normal cervical average ADC value was (1.72±0.31)×10-3 mm2/s,cervical cancer was (1.10±0.24)×10-3 mm2/s before treatment and was (1.61±0.23)×10-3 mm2/s after treatment.When the b =600 s/mm2,normal cervical average ADC value was (1.46±0.25)×10-3 mm2/s cervical cancer was (0.89±0.21)×10-3 mm2/s before treatment and was (1.54±0.18)×10-3 mm2/s after treatment.When b =300 s/mm2,ADC value was higher than when b =600 s/mm2.ADC values of cervical cancer was significantly lower than that of the normal cervix group,ADC values of cervical lesions after chemoradiotherapy was significantly higher than that before chemoradiotherapy (P ＜ 0.05).In the same group with different b values,ADC value was not significant (P ＞ 0.05).Conclusion Joint observation of DWI and ADC values could be more objective and accurate in the analysis of the disease and would help to evaluate the efficacy of chemoradiotherapy.
