OBJECTIVES: The purpose of this study was to investigate the changes of tumor-to-liver signal ratio in a 0.35T MRI-guided radiotherapy system and to evaluate the usefulness and pitfalls of superparamagnetic iron oxide (SPIO) administration for visualization of liver tumors.
METHODS: Forty-two patients treated with MRI-guided stereotactic ablative radiotherapy (SABR) for liver tumors were included in this study. The tumor-to-liver signal ratios before and after SPIO administration were retrospectively assessed and compared on true fast imaging with steady-state precession (FISP).
RESULTS: Before SPIO administration, liver tumors were either invisible or barely visible in 15 cases (36%), but all tumors became visible after SPIO administration. The mean values of tumor-to-liver signal ratio before and after SPIO administration were 0.939 ± 0.201 and 1.336 ± 0.300, respectively (mean ± standard deviation, p < 0.001). In six (14%) patients, liver tumors were visible on true FISP imaging before SPIO administration, but became invisible after administration.
CONCLUSIONS: This study showed that liver tumors that are invisible on true FISP imaging can be made visible by administration of SPIO, and that MRI-guided SABR can be performed accurately.
ADVANCES IN KNOWLEDGE: This is the first report to examine the usefulness of liver-specific contrast agent superparamagnetic iron oxides in 0.35T MRI-guided radiation therapy. Liver tumors that are invisible on true fast imaging with steady-state precession can be made visible by administration of superparamagnetic iron oxides.
