Abstract
BACKGROUND: Retinoblastomas (RBs) with postlaminar optic nerve invasion (PLONI) increases the risk of local recurrence or systemic metastasis. Most MRI studies on PLONI focused on optic nerve enhancement and tumor size, with reported relatively high specificity (84-98%) but low sensitivity (37-78%), which shows room for improvement, especially with regard to sensitivity. PURPOSE: To evaluate the diagnostic performance for detecting PLONI with RB using MRI features. STUDY TYPE: Retrospective. POPULATION: Fifty patients with histopathologic PLONI and 70 patients without PLONI of RB. FIELD STRENGTH/SEQUENCE: 1.5T and 3.0T, precontrast axial T1 -weighted and T2 -weighted, postcontrast axial, coronal and oblique-sagittal T1 -weighted. ASSESSMENT: The eyes were histopathologically analyzed and the preoperative MRI features of the eyes were independently evaluated by three observers. STATISTICAL TESTS: MRI features suggesting the presence of PLONI were identified by univariate and multivariable analysis. Receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC) and the area under the curve (AUC) were used to analyze diagnostic performance. RESULTS: Significant independent diagnostic factors for PLONI include: 1: Bilateral tumor (odds ratio [OR], 15.32; 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.63-143.51); 2: Tumor with total coverage of the optic disk (OR, 6.43; 95% CI: 1.04-39.79); and 3: Optic nerve enhancement (OR, 8.43; 95% CI: 3.50-20.31). On the other hand, isointense signal of tumor on T2 WI (OR, 0.30; 95% CI: 0.12-0.75) was an independent diagnostic factor in excluding PLONI. ROC analysis showed AUC of 0.84 (95% CI: 0.77-0.91, P < 0.0001) for PLONI. Based on the cutoff of maximum Youden index, the sensitivity, specificity, and accuracy were 82%, 73%, and 77%, respectively. DATA CONCLUSION: MRI features of RB showed a strong association with PLONI. The model of MRI features demonstrated promising diagnostic performance in detecting PLONI. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: 4 Technical Efficacy: Stage 2 J. Magn. Reson. Imaging 2020;51:1045-1052.
