- W4384455689 abstract "Abstract Objectives To investigate the diagnostic performance of diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) of the superficial cranial arteries in the diagnosis of giant cell arteritis (GCA). Methods Retrospectively, 156 patients with clinically suspected GCA were included. A new 4-point ordinal DWI rating scale was developed. A post-contrast, fat-suppressed, T1-weighted “black-blood” sequence (T1-BB) was rated for comparison. Ten arterial segments were assessed: common superficial temporal arteries, temporal and parietal branches, occipital and posterior auricular arteries bilaterally. The expert clinical diagnosis after ≥ 6 months of follow-up was the diagnostic reference standard. Diagnostic accuracy was evaluated for different rating methods. Results The study cohort consisted of 87 patients with and 69 without GCA. For DWI, the area under the curve was 0.90. For a cut-off of ≥ 2 consecutive pathological slices, DWI showed a sensitivity of 75.9%, a specificity of 94.2% and a positive likelihood ratio of 13.09. With a cut-off of ≥ 3 consecutive pathological slices, sensitivity was 70.1%, specificity was 98.6%, and the positive likelihood ratio was 48.38. For the T1-BB, values were 88.5%, 88.4% and 7.63, respectively. The inter-rater analysis for DWI with a cut-off of ≥ 2 pathological slices showed a kappa of 1.00 on the patient level and 0.85 on the arterial segment level. For the T1-BB the kappa was 0.78 and 0.79, respectively. Conclusion DWI of the superficial cranial arteries demonstrates a good diagnostic accuracy and reliability for the diagnosis of GCA. DWI is widely available and can be used immediately in clinical practice for patients with suspected GCA." @default.
