Abstract

Objectives

To compare the T staging of resectable oesophageal cancer (OC) using radial VIBE (r-VIBE) and endoscopic ultrasound (EUS) with pathological confirmation of the T stage.

Methods

Forty-three patients with endoscopically proven OC and indeterminate T1/T2/T3/T4a stage by computed tomography (CT) and EUS were imaged on a 3-T magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scanner. T stage was scored on MRI and EUS by two independent radiologists and one endoscopist, respectively, and compared with postoperative pathological findings. T staging agreement between r-VIBE and EUS with postoperative pathological T staging was analysed by a kappa test.

Results

EUS and pathological T staging showed agreement of 69.8% (30/43). Radial VIBE and pathological T staging agreement was 86.0% (37/43) and 90.7% (39/43) for readers 1 and 2, respectively. High accuracy for T1/T2 stage was obtained for both r-VIBE readers (90.5% and 100% for reader 1 and reader 2, respectively) and EUS reader (100%). For T3/T4, r-VIBE showed accuracy of 81.8% and 90.9% for reader 1 and reader 2, respectively, while for EUS, accuracy was only 68.2% compared with pathological T staging.

Conclusions

Contrast-enhanced r-VIBE is comparable to EUS in T staging of resectable OC with stage of T1/T2, and is superior to EUS in staging of T3/T4 lesions.

Key Points

Radial VIBE may be useful in preoperative T staging of OC
Accuracy of staging on r-VIBE is higher in T1/2 than in T3/4
Accuracy of EUS was 100% and 68.2% for T1/T2 and T3/T4 stage
Inter-reader agreement of T staging for r-VIBE was good
