Popis: | Purpose To evaluate safety and diagnostic accuracy of gadoteridol vs. other macrocyclic gadolinium-based contrast agents (GBCAs) in a large cohort of consecutive and non-selected patients referred for CE-MRI of the CNS. Material and methods Between November 2017 and March 2018, we prospectively enrolled a consecutive cohort of patients referred for neuroradiological CE-MRI (1.5 T MRI). Image quality and adverse events were assessed. Diagnostic performance was determined for a subgroup of patients with truth standard findings available. Comparison was made between patients receiving gadoteridol and patients receiving other macrocyclic GBCAs. Inter-reader agreement (kappa) between two expert neuroradiologists was calculated for the diagnosis of malignancy. Results Overall, 460 patients (220 M/240F; mean age 54 ± 16 years) were enrolled of which 230 received gadoteridol (Group 1) and 230 either gadoteric acid or gadobutrol [n = 83 (36.1%) and n = 147 (63.9%), respectively; Group 2]. Image quality was rated as good or excellent in both groups. The sensitivity, specificity and diagnostic accuracy for determination of malignancy was 88.2%, 96.5% and 95.4%, respectively, for Group 1 and 93.7%, 97.4% and 96.9%, respectively, for Group 2, with no significant differences between groups (P > 0.75) for any determination. Inter-reader agreement for the identification of malignancy was excellent [K = 0.877 (95%CI: 0.758–0.995) and K = 0.818 (95%CI: 0.663–0.972) for groups 1 and 2, respectively; P = 0.0913]. Adverse events occurred in 5 of 460 (1.09%) patients overall, with no significant difference (P = 0.972) between groups. Conclusion Gadoteridol was safe and guaranteed good image quality without significant differences when compared to gadobutrol and gadoteric acid in a wide range of CNS pathologies. |
