Diagnostic accuracy of a dual-energy computed tomography-based post-processing method for imaging bone marrow edema following an acute ligamentous knee injury.

Objective: This study evaluated the ability of a custom dual-energy CT (DECT) post-processing material decomposition method to image bone marrow edema after acute knee injury. Using an independent validation cohort, the DECT method was compared to gold-standard, fluid-sensitive MRI. By including bot...

      ab: Objective: This study evaluated the ability of a custom dual-energy CT (DECT) post-processing material decomposition method to image bone marrow edema after acute knee injury. Using an independent validation cohort, the DECT method was compared to gold-standard, fluid-sensitive MRI. By including both quantitative voxel-by-voxel validation outcomes and semi-quantitative radiologist scoring-based assessment of diagnostic accuracy, we aimed to provide insight into the relationship between quantitative metrics and the clinical utility of imaging methods.Materials and Methods: Images from 35 participants with acute anterior cruciate ligament injuries were analyzed. DECT material composition was applied to identify bone marrow edema, and the DECT result was quantitatively compared to gold-standard, registered fluid-sensitive MRI on a per-voxel basis. In addition, two blinded readers rated edema presence in both DECT and fluid-sensitive MR images for evaluation of diagnostic accuracy.Results: Semi-quantitative assessment indicated sensitivity of 0.67 and 0.74 for the two readers, respectively, at the tibia and 0.55 and 0.57 at the femur, and specificity of 0.87 and 0.89 for the two readers at the tibia and 0.58 and 0.89 at the femur. Quantitative assessment of edema segmentation accuracy demonstrated mean dice coefficients of 0.40 and 0.16 at the tibia and femur, respectively.Conclusion: The custom post-processing-based DECT method showed similar diagnostic accuracy to a previous study that assessed edema associated with ligamentous knee injury using a CT manufacturer-provided, built-in edema imaging application. Quantitative outcome measures were more stringent than semi-quantitative scoring methods, accounting for the low mean dice coefficient scores.
