Hyperpolarized 1- 13 C-pyruvate magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS) and MRS imaging (MRSI) offer noninvasive and real-time direct assessment of the altered metabolism of cancer cells known as the Warburg effect-a key hallmark of cancer. When combined with simultaneously acquired 18 F-FDG PET in a PET/MR scanner, coined hyperPET by us, this dual-modality may unveil cancer-type specific glucose metabolic phenotypes with potential implications for patient prognostication, treatment-response assessment, and prediction. We here present the first human data of simultaneously acquired hyperpolarized MRS/MRSI and PET performed in a PET/MR scanner-and the first human hyperpolarized MRS/MRSI data from a patient with lymphoma.
超极化1-13C-丙酮酸磁共振波谱(MRS)和磁共振波谱成像(MRSI)能够对癌细胞代谢改变进行无创且实时的直接评估,这种代谢改变即瓦伯格效应——癌症的一个关键特征。当与PET/MR扫描仪中同时采集的18F-FDG PET相结合时(我们将其命名为hyperPET),这种双模态技术可能会揭示癌症类型特异性的葡萄糖代谢表型,对患者的预后、治疗反应评估及预测具有潜在意义。我们在此展示了在PET/MR扫描仪中同时采集超极化MRS/MRSI和PET的首批人体数据,以及来自一名淋巴瘤患者的首批人体超极化MRS/MRSI数据。
