PURPOSE: Performance of 3D-T1W-TSE has been proven superior to 3D-MP-GRE at 3 T on brain metastases (BM) contrast-enhanced (CE) MRI. However, its performance at 1.5 T is largely unknown and sparsely reported. This study aims to assess image quality, lesion detectability and conspicuity of 1.5 T 3D-T1W-TSE on planning MRI of frameless BM radiotherapy.
METHODS: 94 BM patients to be treated by frameless brain radiotherapy were scanned using 3D-T1W-TSE with immobilization on multi-vendor 1.5 T MRI-simulators. BMs were jointly diagnosed by 4 reviewers. Enhanced lesion conspicuity was quantitatively assessed by calculating contrast ratio (CR) and contrast-to-noise ratio (CNR). Signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) reduction of white matter due to the use of flexible coil was assessed. Lesion detectability and conspicuity were compared between 1.5 T planning MRI and 3 T diagnostic MRI by an oncologist and a radiologist in 10 patients.
RESULTS: 497 BMs were jointly diagnosed. The CR and CNR were 75.2 ± 39.9% and 14.2 ± 8.1, respectively. SNR reduced considerably from 31.7 ± 8.3 to 21.9 ± 5.4 with the longer distance to coils. 3 T diagnostic MRI and 1.5 T planning MRI yielded exactly the same detection of 84 BMs. Qualitatively, lesion conspicuity at 1.5 T was not inferior to that at 3 T. Quantitatively, lower brain SNR and lesion CNR were found at 1.5 T, while lesion CR at 1.5 T was highly comparable to that at 3 T.
CONCLUSION: 1.5 T 3D-T1W-TSE planning MRI of frameless BM radiotherapy was comprehensively assessed. Highly comparable BM detectability and conspicuity were achieved by 1.5 T planning MRI compared to 3 T diagnostic MRI. 1.5 T 3D-T1W-TSE should be valuable for frameless brain radiotherapy planning.
