BACKGROUND: Non-invasive imaging modalities are warranted for diagnosing and monitoring veno-occlusive disease because early diagnosis and treatment improve the prognosis.
OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the usefulness of liver shear wave elastography (SWE) and shear wave dispersion (SWD) imaging in diagnosing and monitoring veno-occlusive disease in pediatric patients.
MATERIALS AND METHODS: We conducted a prospective cohort study at a single tertiary hospital from March 2021 to April 2022. The study protocol included four ultrasound (US) sessions: a baseline US and three follow-up US after hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. Clinical criteria, including the European Society for Blood and Marrow Transplantation criteria, were used to diagnose veno-occlusive disease. We compared clinical factors and US parameters between the veno-occlusive disease and non-veno-occlusive disease groups. The diagnostic performance of US parameters for veno-occlusive disease was assessed by plotting receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves. We describe temporal changes in US parameters before and after veno-occlusive disease diagnosis.
RESULTS: Among the 38 participants (mean age 10.7 years), eight developed veno-occlusive disease occurring 17.0 ± 5.2 days after hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. Liver stiffness, as measured by SWE (15.0 ± 6.2 kPa vs. 5.8 ± 1.8 kPa; P<0.001), and viscosity, as assessed with SWD (17.7 ± 3.1 m/s/kHz vs. 14.3 ± 2.8 m/s/kHz; P=0.015), were significantly higher in the veno-occlusive disease group compared to the non-veno-occlusive disease group at the time of diagnosis. Liver stiffness demonstrated the highest area under the ROC (AUROC) curves at 0.960, with an optimal predictive value of >6.5 kPa, resulting in sensitivity and specificity of 100% and 83.3%, respectively. Viscosity demonstrated an AUROC of 0.783, with an optimal cutoff value of 13.9 m/s/kHz for predicting veno-occlusive disease, with a sensitivity of 100% and specificity of 53.3%, respectively. Liver stiffness increased with disease severity and decreased during post-treatment follow-up.
CONCLUSION: SWE may be a promising technique for early diagnosis and severity prediction of veno-occlusive disease. Furthermore, liver viscosity assessed by SWD may serve as an additional marker of veno-occlusive disease.
