Association of Free-to-Total PSA Ratio and 18F-DCFPyL Prostate-Specific Membrane Antigen PET/CT Findings in Patients with Biochemical Recurrence After Radical Prostatectomy: A Prospective Single-Center Study

In Canada and across the globe, access to PSMA PET/CT is limited and expensive. For patients with biochemical recurrence (BCR) after treatment for prostate cancer, novel strategies are needed to better stratify patients who may or may not benefit from a PSMA PET scan. The role of the free-to-total prostate-specific antigen (PSA) ratio (FPSAR) in posttreatment prostate cancer, specifically in the PSMA PET/CT era, remains unknown. Our aim in this study was to determine the association of FPSAR in patients referred for 18F-DCFPyL PSMA PET/CT in the BCR setting and assess the correlation between FPSAR and 18F-DCFPyL PSMA PET/CT positivity (local recurrence or distant metastases). Methods: This prospective study included 137 patients who were referred for 18F-DCFPyL PSMA PET/CT and had BCR with a total PSA of less than 1 ng/mL after radical prostatectomy (RP) (including adjuvant or salvage radiotherapy). Blood samples were collected on the day of 18F-DCFPyL PSMA PET/CT. FPSAR was categorized as less than 0.10 or as 0.10 or more. A positive 18F-DCFPyL PSMA PET/CT scan was defined by a PROMISE classification lesion score of 2 or 3, irrespective of the site of increased tracer uptake (e.g., prostate, pelvic nodes, bone, or viscera). Results: Overall, 137 blood samples of patients with BCR after RP were analyzed to calculate FPSAR. The median age at 18F-DCFPyL PSMA PET/CT was 68.6 y (interquartile range, 63.0–72.4 y), and the median PSA at 18F-DCFPyL PSMA PET/CT was 0.3 ng/mL (interquartile range, 0.3–0.6 ng/mL). Eighty-six patients (62.8%) had an FPSAR of less than 0.10, whereas 51 patients (37.2%) had an FPSAR of 0.10 or more. An FPSAR of 0.10 or more was identified as an independent predictor of a positive 18F-DCFPyL PSMA PET/CT scan, with an odds ratio of 6.99 (95% CI, 2.96–16.51; P < 0.001). Conclusion: An FPSAR of 0.10 or more after RP independently correlated with increased odds of a positive 18F-DCFPyL PSMA PET/CT scan among BCR post-RP patients. These findings may offer an inexpensive method by which to triage access to 18F-DCFPyL PSMA PET/CT in jurisdictions where availability is not replete.

Prevalence of Rathke Cleft and Other Incidental Pituitary Gland Findings on Contrast-Enhanced 3D Fat-Saturated T1 MPRAGE at 7T MRI [CLINICAL PRACTICE]

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE:

A cleftlike nonenhancing hypointensity was observed repeatedly in the pituitary gland at the adenohypophysis/neurohypophysis border on contrast-enhanced 3D fat-saturated T1-MPRAGE using clinical 7T MRI. Our primary goal was to assess the prevalence of this finding. The secondary goals were to evaluate the frequency of other incidental pituitary lesions, MRI artifacts, and their effect on pituitary imaging on the contrast-enhanced 3D fat-saturated T1 MPRAGE at 7T.

MATERIALS AND METHODS:

One hundred patients who underwent 7T neuroimaging between October 27, 2021, and August 10, 2023, were included. Each case was evaluated for cleftlike pituitary hypointensity, pituitary masses, and artifacts on contrast-enhanced 3D fat-saturated T1 MPRAGE. Follow-up examinations were evaluated if present. The average prevalence for each finding was calculated, as were descriptive statistics for age and sex.

RESULTS:

A cleftlike hypointensity was present in 66% of 7T MRIs. There were no significant differences between the "cleftlike present" and "cleftlike absent" groups regarding sex (P = .39) and age (P = .32). The cleftlike hypointensity was demonstrated on follow-up MRIs in 3/3 patients with 7T, 1/12 with 3T, and 1/5 with 1.5T. A mass was found in 22%, while 75% had no mass and 3% were indeterminate. A mass was found in 18 (27%) of the cleftlike present and 4 (13%) of the cleftlike absent groups. The most common mass types were Rathke cleft cyst in 7 (31.8%) patients, "Rathke cleft cyst versus entrapped CSF" in 6 (27.3%), and microadenoma in 6 (22.2%) in the cleftlike present group. There were no significant differences in the mass types between the cleftlike present and cleftlike absent groups (P = .23). Susceptibility and/or motion artifacts were frequent using contrast-enhanced 3D fat-saturated T1 MPRAGE (54%). Artifact-free scans were significantly more frequent in the cleftlike present group (P = .03).

CONCLUSIONS:

A cleftlike nonenhancing hypointensity was frequently seen on the contrast-enhanced 3D fat-saturated T1 MPRAGE images at 7T MRI, which most likely represents a normal embryologic Rathke cleft remnant and cannot be seen in lower-field-strength MRIs. Susceptibility and motion artifacts are common in the sella. They may affect image quality, and the artifacts at 7T may lead to an underestimation of the prevalence of the Rathke cleft and other incidental findings.

High-Resolution MRA Cerebrovascular Findings in a Tri-Ethnic Population [CLINICAL PRACTICE]

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE:

Incidental findings on brain MRI and variations of the circle of Willis (CoW) are relatively common among the general population. Ethnic differences have been described before, but few studies have explored the prevalence of incidental intracranial cerebrovascular findings and CoW variants in the setting of a single multiethnic cohort. The purpose of this investigation was to describe both incidental cerebrovascular findings and the morphology of the CoW on high-resolution 3T TOF-MRA in a UK tri-ethnic population-based cohort and to present updated prevalence estimates and morphologic reference values.

MATERIALS AND METHODS:

We studied participants from the UK Southall and Brent REvisited study who underwent 3T brain MRI between 2014 and 2018. TOF-MRA images were assessed for the presence of incidental cerebrovascular findings and used to determine CoW anatomy.

RESULTS:

Seven hundred fifty participants (mean age, 71.28 [SD, 6.46] years; range, 46–90 years; 337 women), 322 White Europeans, 253 South Asians, and 175 African Caribbeans were included. Incidental cerebrovascular findings were observed in 84 subjects (11.2%, 95% CI, 9.0%–13.7%; 36 women; 42.86%, 95% CI, 32.11%–54.12%), with cerebral aneurysms being the most frequent followed by intracranial arterial stenoses with the highest prevalence among South Asians compared with White European (OR: 2.72; 95% CI, 1.22–6.08; P = .015) and African Caribbean subjects (OR: 2.79; 95% CI, 1.00–7.82; P = .051). Other findings included arteriovenous malformations and infundibula. The CoW was found to be more often complete in women than in men (25.22% compared with 18.41%, P = .024) and in African Caribbean (34.86%) compared with White European (19.19%) and South Asian (14.23%) subjects (P < .001 each).

CONCLUSIONS:

Intracranial arterial stenoses were independently associated with ethnicity after adjusting for vascular risk factors, having the highest prevalence among South Asians. The prevalence of aneurysms was higher than that in previous population-based studies. We observed anatomic differences in the CoW configuration among women, men, and ethnicities.
