INTRODUCTION:: The aim of this study was to analyze the sensitivity and specificity of non-echoplanar (non-EPI) diffusion-weighted (DW) magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) for the detection of cholesteatoma, with a focus on its value as an adjunct to clinical examination.
METHODS:: In a prospective cohort study, 92 cases were divided into 2 groups: "clinically cholesteatoma" ( n = 79) and "clinically no cholesteatoma" ( n = 13). Non-EPI DW MRI was performed preoperatively in all cases. The presence of a cholesteatoma was assessed by clinicians otoscopically, by neuroradiologists on non-EPI DW MRI, by the surgeon intraoperatively, and finally by the pathologist postoperatively. Data analysis was performed for specificity, sensitivity, positive predictive value, negative predictive value, and interrater variability.
RESULTS:: The sensitivity and specificity were 89.3% and 75%, respectively, in the "clinically cholesteatoma" group and 0% and 100% in the "clinically no cholesteatoma" group. Non-EPI DW MRI had a positive predictive value of 98.5% when cholesteatoma was suspected clinically and a negative predictive value of 84.6% when cholesteatoma was not suspected clinically.
CONCLUSION:: If cholesteatoma is suspected clinically, non-EPI DW MRI is not necessary. If there is no clinical suspicion of cholesteatoma in second-look situations, sensitivity is low and serial follow-up MRI with long intervals is advised.
