Abstract: Objective To evaluate the category modifications and prognosis of cirrhotic nodules depending on MRI imaging report and data system of LR-2,LR-3 and LR-4.Methods Clinical data of 109 patients(151 lesions)with cirrhosis who underwent two or more MRI examinations in the Third People's Hospital of Nantong City from September 2012 to February 2017 were retrospectively collected. All the patients were diagnosed as LR-2, LR-3 and LR-4 lesions for the first time without biopsy or operation. Among all the lesions, 40 were LR-2,71 were LR-3 and 32 were LR-4.Routine liver MRI scanning,DWI and multiphase dynamic contrast-enhanced MRI were performed on all patients. The follow-up time and category modifications were recorded for each lesion. The single-factor analysis was used to analyze the follow-up time of LR-2, LR-3 and LR-4 lesions. The incidence of up-regulation of LR-2, LR-3 and LR-4 nodules were analyzed by Kaplan-Meier curve. Log-Rank test was used to compare the results. Results The mean follow-up time of LR-2, LR-3 and LR-4 was (17.4 ± 9.2), (16.3 ± 8.5) and (12.4 ± 9.3) months respectively,the difference were statistically significant(F=3.30,P=0.041).Among 48 index LR-2 lesions, 1 upgraded to LR-5 after 52.3 months of follow-up, 4 upgraded to LR-3, 29 remained stable, and 14 decreased to LR-1. Among 71 index LR-3 lesions, 13 upgraded to LR-5, among which 12 demonstrated threshold growth, 9 developed newly enriched pleural signs, 7 showed capsules and 3 demonstrated hypervascular transformation;6 upgraded to LR-4,34 remained stable and 18 decreased to LR-1.Among 32 index LR-4 lesions, 14 upgraded to LR-5, among which 11 demonstrated threshold growth, 1 developed newly enriched pleural signs,6 showed capsules and 1 demonstrated hypervascular transformation;1 leision developed to LR-5V with portal vein thrombosis, 15 remained stable and 2 decreased to LR-1. The cumulative incidence of LR-4 nodules up-regulated to LR-5 was higher than that of LR-2 and LR-3 nodules (all P<0.01). The cumulative incidence of LR-4 nodules at 3, 6, 12 months to LR-5 were 6.3%, 18.8%, 34.4%, and LR-3 nodules were 0, 4.2%, 5.6%. LR-2 nodules are 0. The cumulative incidence of LR-3 nodules classified as LR≥4 was higher than that of LR-2 nodules(P<0.01).Conclusion LR-2,LR-3,and LR-4 nodules have different prognostic outcomes based on the LI-RADS classification criteria for MRI,and the cumulative incidence of LR-4 progression to LR-5 was higher.
