[Abstract] Objectives: Using Meta-analysis to estimate the diagnostic value of differentiating glioma recurrence from radiation necrosis.Materials and Methods: We systematically searched PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, and Cochrane electronic databases to identify relevant published articles until June, 2016. English and Chinese language restrictions were applied. The data were analyzed by Meta-disc software.Results: Nine studies were used for general data pooling. The study included a total of 251 patients and 270 lesions. The pooled of DSC sensitivity was 0.89 (95% CI: 0.83, 0.93) and specificity was 0.88 (95% CI: 0.78, 0.94). Overall, positive likelihood ratio (PLR) was 4.47 (95% CI: 2.9-6.91; I2= 0, P<0.001) and negative likelihood ratio (NLR) was 0.15 (95%CI: 0. 1-0.23; I2=0, P<0.001). The pooled diagnostic odds ratio (DOR) was 33 (95% CI: 15.86, 68.66). The area under the receiver operating characteristic curve of DSC was 0.94 and the Q* index was 0.873. I2=0, representing a small heterogeneity between the 9 studies.Conclusion: Our Meta-analysis suggested that the rCBV values derived from DSC-MRI could be useful in differentiating glioma recurrence from radiation necrosis, DSC showed high sensitivity and specificity in differentiating glioma recurrence from radiation necrosis.
