    Title translation Potential of radiomics and artificial intelligence in myeloma imaging : Development of automatic, comprehensive, objective skeletal analyses from whole-body imaging data.
    Abstract Clinical/methodical issue: Multiple myeloma can affect the complete skeleton, which makes whole-body imaging necessary. With the current assessment of these complex datasets by radiologists, only a small part of the accessible information is assessed and reported.
    Standard radiological methods: Depending on the question and availability, computed tomography (CT), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), or positron emission tomography (PET) is performed and the results are then visually examined by radiologists.
    Methodological innovations: A combination of automatic skeletal segmentation using artificial intelligence and subsequent radiomics analysis of each individual bone have the potential to provide automatic, comprehensive, and objective skeletal analyses.
    Performance: A few automatic skeletal segmentation algorithms for CT already show promising results. In addition, first studies indicate correlations between radiomics features of bone and bone marrow with established disease markers and therapy response.
    Achievements: Artificial intelligence (AI) and radiomics algorithms for automatic skeletal analysis from whole-body imaging are currently in an early phase of development.

    Abstract In multiple myeloma and its precursor stages, precise quantification of tumor load is of high importance for diagnosis, risk assessment, and therapy response evaluation. Both whole-body MRI, which allows to investigate the complete bone marrow of a patient, and bone marrow biopsy, which is commonly used to assess the histologic and genetic status, are relevant methods for tumor load assessment in multiple myeloma. We report on a series of striking mismatches between the plasma cell infiltration estimating the tumor load from unguided biopsies of the bone marrow at the posterior iliac crest and the tumor load assessment from whole-body MRI.

    Abstract Purpose: The presence of bone marrow focal lesions and osteolytic lesions in patients with multiple myeloma (MM) is of high prognostic significance for their individual outcome. It is not known yet why some focal lesions seen in MRI, reflecting localized bone marrow infiltration of myeloma cells, remain non-lytic, whereas others are associated with destruction of mineralized bone. In this study, we analyzed MRI characteristics of manually segmented focal lesions in MM patients to identify possible features that might discriminate lytic and non-lytic lesions.
    Method: The initial cohort included a total of 140 patients with different stages of MM who had undergone both whole-body MRI and whole-body low-dose CT within 30 days, and of which 29 satisfied the inclusion criteria for this study. Focal lesions in MRI and corresponding osteolytic areas in CT were segmented manually. Analysis of the lesions included volume, location and first order texture features analysis.
    Results: There were significantly more lytic lesions in the axial skeleton than in the appendicular skeleton (p = 0.037). Out of 926 focal lesions in the axial skeleton seen on MRI, 544 (59.3 %) were osteolytic. Analysis of volume and first order texture features showed differences in texture and volume between focal lesions in MRI with and without local bone destruction in CT, but these findings were not statistically significant.
    Conclusions: Neither morphological imaging characteristics like size and location nor first order texture features could predict whether focal lesions seen in MRI would exhibit corresponding bone destruction in CT. Studies performing biopsies of such lesions are ongoing.

    Abstract Purpose: This study aimed to assess repeatability after repositioning (inter-scan), intra-rater, inter-rater and inter-sequence variability of mean apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) measurements in MRI-detected prostate lesions.
    Method: Forty-three patients with suspicion for prostate cancer were included and received a clinical prostate bi-/multiparametric MRI examination with repeat scans of the T2-weighted and two DWI-weighted sequences (ssEPI and rsEPI). Two raters (R1 and R2) performed single-slice, 2D regions of interest (2D-ROIs) and 3D-segmentation-ROIs (3D-ROIs). Mean bias, corresponding limits of agreement (LoA), mean absolute difference, within-subject coefficient of variation (CoV) and repeatability/reproducibility coefficient (RC/RDC) were calculated. Bradley & Blackwood test was used for variance comparison. Linear mixed models (LMM) were used to account for multiple lesions per patient.
    Results: Inter-scan repeatability, intra-rater and inter-sequence reproducibility analysis of ADC showed no significant bias. 3D-ROIs demonstrated significantly less variability than 2D-ROIs (p < 0.01). Inter-rater comparison demonstrated small significant systematic bias of 57 × 10
    Conclusions: In a single-scanner setting, single-slice ADC measurements showed considerable variation, which may be lowered using 3D-ROIs. For 3D-ROIs, we propose a cut-off of ∼ 200 × 10

    Abstract Objective: To investigate the reproducibility of size measurements of focal bone marrow lesions (FL) in MRI in patients with monoclonal plasma cell disorders under variation of patient positioning and observer.
    Methods: A data set from a prospective test-retest study was used, in which 37 patients with a total of 140 FL had undergone 2 MRI scans with identical parameters after patient repositioning. Two readers measured long and short axis diameter on the initial scan in
    Results: In the simple test-retest experiment with one identical reader, a deviation of ≥1 mm / ≥2 mm / ≥3 mm for the long axis diameter in
    Conclusion: Small deviations in FL size are common and probably due to variation in patient positioning or inter-rater variability alone, without any actual biological change of the FL. Knowledge of the uncertainty associated with size measurements of FLs is critical for radiologists and oncologists when interpreting changes in FL size in clinical practice and in clinical trials.
    Advances in knowledge: According to the MY-RADs criteria, size measurements of focal lesions in MRI are now of relevance for response assessment in patients with monoclonal plasma cell disorders.Size changes of 1 or 2 mm are frequently observed due to uncertainty of the measurement only, while the actual focal lesion has not undergone any biological change.Size changes of at least 6 mm or more in

    Abstract The definition of multiple myeloma (MM) was updated in 2014, with the intent to enable earlier treatment and thereby avoid appearance of end-organ damage at progression from smouldering multiple myeloma (SMM) to MM. The purpose of this study was to investigate to which extent the development of end-organ damage at progression to MM was reduced under the updated guidelines. In this prospective observational cohort study (ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT01374412), between 2014 and 2020, 96 SMM patients prospectively underwent whole-body magnetic resonance imaging (wb-MRI) and serological follow-up at baseline and every 6 months thereafter. A total of 22 patients progressed into MM during follow-up, of which seven (32%) showed SLiM-criteria only but no end-organ damage. Four (57%) of the seven patients who progressed by SLiM-criteria only progressed with >1 focal lesion (FL) or a growing FL, and three (43%) due to serum free light-chain-ratio ≥100. Fifteen (68%) out of 22 patients who progressed still suffered from end-organ damage at progression. The updated disease definition reduced the proportion of SMM patients suffering from end-organ damage at progression to MM by one third. wb-MRI is an important tool for detection of SMM patients who progress to MM without end-organ damage.

    Abstract Background/objectives: Apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) and signal intensity (SI) measurements play an increasing role in magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of monoclonal plasma cell disorders. The purpose of this study was to assess interrater variability, repeatability, and reproducibility of ADC and SI measurements from bone marrow (BM) under variation of MRI protocols and scanners.
    Patients and methods: Fifty-five patients with suspected or confirmed monoclonal plasma cell disorder were prospectively included in this institutional review board-approved study and underwent several measurements after the standard clinical whole-body MR scan, including repeated scan after repositioning, scan with a second MRI protocol, scan at a second 1.5 T scanner with a harmonized MRI protocol, and scan at a 3 T scanner. For T1-weighted, T2-weighted STIR, B800 images, and ADC maps, regions of interest were placed in the BM of the iliac crest and sacral bone, and in muscle tissue for image normalization. Bland-Altman plots were constructed, and absolute bias, relative bias to mean, limits of agreement, and coefficients of variation were calculated.
    Results: Interrater variability and repeatability experiments showed a maximal relative bias of -0.077 and a maximal coefficient of variation of 16.2% for all sequences. Although the deviations at the second 1.5 T scanner with harmonized MRI protocol to the first 1.5 T scanner showed a maximal relative bias of 0.124 for all sequences, the variation of the MRI protocol and scan at the 3 T scanner led to large relative biases of up to -0.357 and -0.526, respectively. When comparing the 3 T scanner to the 1.5 T scanner, normalization to muscle reduced the bias of T1-weighted and T2-weighted sequences, but not of ADC maps.
    Conclusions: The MRI scanners with identical field strength and harmonized MRI protocols can provide relatively stable quantitative measurements of BM ADC and SI. Deviations in MRI field strength and MRI protocol should be avoided when applying ADC cutoff values, which were established at other scanners or when performing multicentric imaging trials.

    Abstract The purpose of this study was to analyze size and growth dynamics of focal lesions (FL) as well as to quantify diffuse infiltration (DI) in untreated smoldering multiple myeloma (SMM) patients and correlate those MRI features with timepoint and cause of progression. We investigated 199 whole-body magnetic resonance imaging (wb-MRI) scans originating from longitudinal imaging of 60 SMM patients and 39 computed tomography (CT) scans for corresponding osteolytic lesions (OL) in 17 patients. All FLs >5 mm were manually segmented to quantify volume and growth dynamics, and DI was scored, rating four compartments separately in T1- and fat-saturated T2-weighted images. The majority of patients with at least two FLs showed substantial spatial heterogeneity in growth dynamics. The volume of the largest FL (
