Magnetic resonance imaging for detection and determination of tumor volume in a genetically engineered mouse model of ovarian cancer

AbstractThis data collection contains Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) data, including structural, diffusion, stimulus-evoked, and resting-state functional MRI and behavioural assessment results, including acute post-impact Loss-of-Righting Reflex time and acute, subacute, and longer-term Neural Severity Score, and Open Field Behaviour obtained from a mouse model of concussion. Four cohorts with 43 3–4 months old male mice in total were used: Sham (n = 14, n = 6 day 2, n = 3 day 7, n = 5 day 14), concussion day 2 (CON 2; n = 9), concussion day 7 (CON 7; n = 10), concussion day 14 (CON 14; n = 10). The data collection contains the aforementioned MRI data in compressed NIFTI format, data sheets on animal’s backgrounds and behavioural outcomes and is made publicly available from a data repository. The available data are intended to facility cross-study comparisons, meta-analysis, and science reproducibility.

AbstractThe aim of this study was to investigate the mechanisms underlying demyelination and remyelination with 7.0 T multiparameter magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in an alternative cuprizone (CPZ) mouse model of multiple sclerosis (MS). Sixty mice were divided into six groups (n = 10, each), and these groups were imaged with 7.0 T multiparameter MRI and treated with an alternative CPZ administration schedule. T2-weighted imaging (T2WI), susceptibility-weighted imaging (SWI), and diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) were used to compare the splenium of the corpus callosum (sCC) among the groups. Prussian blue and Luxol fast blue staining were performed to assess pathology. The correlations of the mean grayscale value (mGSV) of the pathology results and the MRI metrics were analyzed to evaluate the multiparameter MRI results. One-way ANOVA and post hoc comparison showed that the normalized T2WI (T2-nor), fractional anisotropy (FA), mean diffusivity (MD), radial diffusivity (RD), and axial diffusivity (AD) values were significantly different among the six groups, while the mean phase (Φ) value of SWI was not significantly different among the groups. Correlation analysis showed that the correlation between the T2-nor and mGSV was higher than that among the other values. The correlations among the FA, RD, MD, and mGSV remained instructive. In conclusion, ultrahigh-field multiparameter MRI can reflect the pathological changes associated with and the underlying mechanisms of demyelination and remyelination in MS after the successful establishment of an acute CPZ-induced model.

Abstract BACKGROUND: The beneficial role of the extent of resection (EOR) in glioma surgery in correlation to increased survival remains controversial. However, common literature favors maximum EOR with preservation of neurological function, which is shown to be associated with a significantly improved outcome. OBJECTIVE: In order to obtain a maximum EOR, it was examined whether high-field intraoperative magnetic resonance imaging (iMRI) combined with multimodal navigation contributes to a significantly improved EOR in glioma surgery. METHODS: Two hundred ninety-three glioma patients underwent craniotomy and tumor resection with the aid of intraoperative 1.5 T MRI and integrated multimodal navigation. In cases of remnant tumor, an update of navigation was performed with intraoperative images. Tumor volume was quantified pre- and intraoperatively by segmentation of T2 abnormality in low-grade and contrast enhancement in high-grade gliomas. RESULTS: In 25.9% of all cases examined, additional tumor mass was removed as a result of iMRI. This led to complete tumor resection in 20 cases, increasing the rate of gross-total removal from 31.7% to 38.6%. In 56 patients, additional but incomplete resection was performed because of the close location to eloquent brain areas. Volumetric analysis showed a significantly (P < .01) reduced mean percentage of tumor volume following additional further resection after iMRI from 33.5% ± 25.1% to 14.7% ± 23.3% (World Health Organization [WHO] grade I, 32.8% ± 21.9% to 6.1% ± 18.8%; WHO grade II, 24.4% ± 25.1% to 10.8% ± 11.0%; WHO grade III, 35.1% ± 27.3% to 24.8% ± 26.3%; WHO grade IV, 34.2% ± 23.7% to 1.2% ± 16.2%). CONCLUSION: MRI in conjunction with multimodal navigation and an intraoperative updating procedure enlarges tumor-volume reduction in glioma surgery significantly without higher postoperative morbidity.
