OBJECTIVE: To compare the diagnostic accuracy of diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance imaging (DWI) and frozen-section analysis in assessing myometrial invasion in endometrial cancer to guide surgery.
METHODS: In this prospective study, 51 women with diagnosed endometrial cancer were examined using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and subsequently underwent hysterectomy with intraoperative frozen-section assessment. The MRI protocol included T2-weighted images (T2WI), a dynamic T1-weighted post-gadolinium series, and DWI sequences acquired with b values of 0, 150, and 800 s/mm(2). Apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) maps were obtained in all the studies. Deep myometrial invasion was defined as involvement of ≥50% of the thickness of the myometrium. The final postoperative pathological evaluation was considered as the reference standard.
RESULTS: The accuracy, sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value, and negative predictive value of DWI for detecting deep invasion of the myometrium were 90.2%, 77.8%, 97%, 93.3%, and 88.9%, respectively. For the intraoperative frozen section, these figures were 90.2%, 73.7%, 100%, 100%, and 86.5%. The precision for both tests was the same using McNemar's test (p = 1).
CONCLUSION: In assessing the depth of myometrial invasion, ADC maps show the same accuracy as intraoperative histological studies in endometrial cancers. They also allow for a more precise assessment than conventional MRI sequences. Frozen-section analysis can be avoided if the preoperative MRI study includes DWI sequences and ADC maps.
