[Abstract] Objective: To investigate the features of whole-tumor histogram derived from enhanced T1-weighted images and its value in identification of meningioma from choroid plexus papilloma in ventricle.Materials and Methods: Retrospectively collected data from pathologically confirmed 33 cases of meningioma and 24 cases of choroid plexus papilloma from November 2009 to November 2019, preoperative routine enhanced MRI scanning were performed. The histogram features of two groups tumor parenchyma regions were extracted by MaZda software on the enhanced T1 weighted imaging axial images, and the gray histogram was performed. Statistical analysis was carried out on the obtained 9 histogram characteristic parameters of mean, variance, kurtosis, skewness, 1st percentile, 10th percentile, 50th percentile, 90th percentile and 99th percentile, so as to compare the characteristic differences between the meningioma and the choroid plexus papilloma. The receiver operating characteristic curve was established and the area under curve was calculated, the binary logistic regression analysis was used to combine the two parameters with larger area under the curve and establish the receiver operating characteristic curve to analyze the differential diagnostic performance of single histogram characteristic parameters and combined variable in meningioma and choroid plexus papilloma.Results: Among the 9 extracted histogram parameters, there were statistical differences between meningioma and choroid plexus papilloma in mean, kurtosis, 1st percentile, 10th percentile, and 50th percentile (all P<0.05), the calculated areas under receiver operating characteristic curve were 0.73, 0.77, 0.75, 0.78, 0.72, respectively. There were no significant differences in histogram parameters variance, skewness, 90th percentile and 99th percentile (all P>0.05). The 10th percentile and Kurtosis had higher diagnostic efficiency, with the optimal threshold for 112.40 and 0.63, the sensitivity and specificity of differential diagnosis were 66.70% and 91.70%, 72.70 and 87.50%, respectively. The combination of the two parameters had the highest diagnostic efficiency, the area under the curve was 0.88, the sensitivity and specificity were 87.50% and 81.80%, respectively.Conclusions: Whole-tumor histogram analysis of enhanced T1 weighted images could provide more quantitative information for the differential diagnosis of meningioma and choroid plexus papilloma in ventricle, with the 10th percentile and kurtosis being more diagnostic. The diagnosis efficiency of two-parameter combined may be further improved, which will provide more valuable references for the clinic.
