PURPOSE: To evaluate calcium suppressed images (CaSupp) in dual-layer detector computed tomography (DLCT) for the detection of bone marrow edema (BME) in vertebral fractures.
MATERIALS AND METHODS: The retrospective study was approved by the institutional review board. 34 patients with synchronous DLCT and MRI, who were diagnosed with one or more acute vertebral fractures, were included. MRI were systematically analyzed as reference standard. Two blinded and independent readers evaluated CaSupp for vertebral BME. Additionally, both readers determined the optimal calcium suppression indices (CaSupp-I) for visualization of BME in consensus and correlated the CaSupp-I with parallel measurement of trabecular density as surrogate parameter for bone mineral density. ROI-based measurements of the contrast-to-noise ratios (CNR) were also conducted. Interrater agreement was determined by kappa-statistics. CNR were analyzed using Wilcoxon signed rank test.
RESULTS: Fifty-seven acute fractured vertebrae out of 383 vertebrae (14.9%) were found. CaSupp yielded an average sensitivity of 87% and specificity of 99%, a positive predictive value of 95%, a negative predictive value of 98% and an accuracy of 97% for the detection of fracture-associated edema. Interrater agreement was excellent (kappa 0.91). Increase in CNR of BME correlated with increasing CaSupp-I. Edema adjacent to the cortical endplates was better visualized using CaSupp-I of 70 and 80, while extensive edema was better visualized using a CaSupp-I of 90 and 100 (chi2 < 0.0001). No correlation between optimal CaSupp-I and trabecular density was found (p > 0.2).
CONCLUSION: CaSupp reconstructed from DLCT enable visualization and detection of BME in traumatic fractured vertebrae with high diagnostic accuracy using CaSupp-I of 70-100.
