Abstract:Objective: To study the 3.0T multivoxel proton magnetic spectroscopy(1H-MRS) findings in brain glioma and to investigate the correlation between Cho/Cr ratio and expression of Ki-67. Methods: Fifty-seven patients of brain gliomas were studied, including 28 cases of low-grade group(grade Ⅰ~Ⅱ), 29 cases of high-grade group(grade Ⅲ~Ⅳ). All of them underwent 3.0T 1H-MRS examination before operation. The Cho/Cr ratios were detected. We analyzed the correlation between Cho/Cr ratio and pathological grade of gliomas. Ki-67 immunohistochemical staining and Ki-67 labeling index(Ki-67LI) were measured after operation. We also analyzed the correlation between Ki-67LI and the pathological grade, the Cho/Cr ratio of gliomas. Results: ①Significant differences were found in the ratios of Cho/Cr between low grade gliomas and high grade gliomas(P<0.001). The ratio of Cho/Cr was positively correlated with the tumor grade(r=0.616, P<0.001). The area under the curve(AUC) of Cho/Cr was 0.856. The threshold value of Cho/Cr ratio for differential diagnosis high grade and low grade brain gliomas was 2.44, the sensitivity was 79.3%, the specificity was 82.1%. ②Ki-67LI of low grade glioma was (3.41±2.35)%, Ki-67LI of high grade glioma was (19.78±11.45)%, the difference was statistically significant(Z=-0.617, P<0.001). The Ki-67LI was positively correlated with the tumor grade and the Cho/Cr ratio(r=0.804, P<0.001). Conclusion: The Cho/Cr ratios of gliomas are correlated with the expression of Ki-67. It may be a useful image index, which can evaluate the proliferation activity and malignancy degree of glioma, without invasion. And it may be helpful in the clinical treatment and prognosis assessment.
