[Abstract] Objective: To explore the value of minimum apparent diffusion coefficient (ADCmin) value in evaluating Ki-67 proliferation index expression in adult intracranial ependymal tumors.Materials and Methods: A retrospective analysis of the preoperative routine MR and DWI data of 29 adult patients with intracranial ependymoma confirmed by surgical pathology and Ki-67 proliferation index in our hospital from May 2015 to March 2020. The ADCmin value of tumor parenchymal components was measured on the ADC maps, and the correlation between ADCmin value and Ki-67 proliferation index expression was calculated. According to Ki-67 proliferation index value, it was divided into high expression group (Ki-67≥ 10%) and low expression group (Ki-67 <10%), and compare the ADCmin value between the two groups, using receiver operating characteristics (ROC) curve to evaluate the ADCmin value to judge the performance of Ki-67 proliferation index expression level.Results: There was a negative correlation between ADCmin value of adult intracranial ependymal tumor and Ki-67 proliferation index (r=-0.596, P<0.01). The ADCmin value of the Ki-67 proliferation index high expression group was significantly smaller than that of the low expression group. When uses the ADCmin value to identify the high and low expression groups of the Ki-67 proliferation index, the AUC value was 0.897, with 0.871 × 10-3 mm2/s is used as the best discrimination threshold, the sensitivity and specificity of the high and low-level Ki-67 proliferation index are 81.3% and 92.3%, respectively.Conclusions: ADCmin has potential value for non-invasively predicting Ki-67 proliferation index expression level and evaluating its malignancy in adult intracranial ependymal tumors.
