[Abstract] Objective: To comparatively analyze the differences of T1WI, T2WI and contrasted T1WI signal intensity histogram parameter in the differential diagnosis of intracranial hemangioma meningioma (HM) and hemanyiopericytoma (HPC) based on entire tumor, and further to evaluate the differential diagnosis value between them.Materials and Methods: The conventional MRI data of 8 patients with HM and 9 patients with HPC proven by pathology or clinical follow-up were retrospectively reviewed. All patients underwent T1WI, T2WI and contrasted T1WI scan. The texture features of lesions based on axial T1WI, T2WI and contrasted T1WI were extracted by post-processed 3D ROI with Omni-Kinetics software. The texture parameters were compared using two independent samples t test and Mann-Whitney U test between groups. Receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC) was constructed to assess the differential ability of the significant parameters between HM and HPC.Results: Min intensity, mean value, mean deviation, skewness, median intensity, RMS, uniformity, the 5th, 10th, 25th, 75th and 90th percentiles of contrasted T1WI have significant differences between HM and HPC (P<0.05). Uniformity, skewness, the 5th, 10th, 25th, cluster shade and cluster prominence of T2WI have significant differences between the two (P<0.05). According to ROC analysis, the uniformity of T2WI was the best parameters (cutoff value=0.79, AUC=1.0) for distinguishing HM and HPC of 0.79 with sensitivity of 88.9% and specificity of 100%.Conclusions: Texture analysis of T2WI and contrasted T1WI based on entire tumor should be helpful in differentiation of HM and HPC.
