Overview

Randomized trial finds Ktrans significantly predicts benign and malignant head and neck lesions, indicating its diagnostic utility.

Key Points

  • This research aims to evaluate the effectiveness of quantitative DCE-MRI parameters in distinguishing between benign and malignant head and neck lesions.
  • Utilized dynamic contrast-enhanced MRI to measure quantitative parameters, focusing on Ktrans.
  • Assessed sensitivity and specificity of Ktrans for lesion differentiation with a cut-off value of 0.355.
  • Ktrans achieved a sensitivity of 85.7% and specificity of 69.4%.
  • Ktrans serves as a reliable independent predictor for identifying benign from malignant lesions.
