摘要

The purpose of this study was to use objective quantitative MR imaging methods to develop a computer-aideddiagnosis tool to differentiate white matter (WM) hyperintensities as either leukoencephalopathy (LE) or normalmaturational processes in children treated for acute lymphoblastic leukemia with intravenous high dose methotrexate. Acombined imaging set consisting of T1, T2, PD, and FLAIR MR images and WM, gray matter, and cerebrospinal fluid apriori maps from a spatially normalized atlas were analyzed with a neural network segmentation based on a KohonenSelf-Organizing Map. Segmented regions were manually classified to identify the most hyperintense WM region and thenormal appearing genu region. Signal intensity differences normalized to the genu within each examination weregenerated for two time points in 203 children. An unsupervised hierarchical clustering algorithm with the agglomerationmethod of McQuitty was used to divide data from the first examination into normal appearing or LE groups. A Csupportvector machine (C-SVM) was then trained on the first examination data and used to classify the data from thesecond examination. The overall accuracy of the computer-aided detection tool was 83.5% (299 / 358) with sensitivity tonormal WM of 86.9% (199 / 229) and specificity to LE of 77.5% (100 / 129) when compared to the readings of twoexpert observers. These results suggest that subtle therapy-induced leukoencephalopathy can be objectively andreproducibly detected in children treated for cancer using this computer-aided detection approach based on relativedifferences in quantitative signal intensity measures normalized within each examination.
