[Abstract] Objective To investigate the diagnostic value of T1, T2 and enhanced T1 value in predicting glioma grading and cell proliferation activity.Materials and Methods Thirty-six patients with glioma confirmed by surgery and pathology were retrospectively analyzed, including 21 patients with high grade glioma (HGG) and 15 patients with low grade glioma (LGG). All patients underwent Magic scan and Magic contrast-enhanced scan one week before surgery. T1 mapping and T2 mapping were generated before and after enhancement. T1 value before enhancement (T1-pre), T2 value before enhancement (T2-pre) and T1 value after enhancement (T1-Gd) were measured in the solid portion of the tumor and normal white matter in the contralateral mirror. The pathological grades and Ki-67 labeling index (Ki-67 LI) of the surgical specimens were measured. The correlation between Magic parameters and Ki-67 LI and the difference between HGG and LGG of Magic parameters and Ki-67 LI were analyzed, and the ROC curve was drawn.Result T1-pre, T1 ratio before enhancement (ratio of T1-pre,rT1-pre), T1-Gd, T1 difference before and after enhancement (ΔT1), T1 value percentage change was significantly associated with Ki-67 LI (P＜0.05).The correlation coefficients r were 0.502, 0.331, －0.351, 0.537 and 0.473, respectively. T1-pre, ΔT1、T1 value percentage change, Ki-67 LI in HGG was significantly higher than LGG and T1-Gd, ratio of T1-Gd after enhancement (rT1-Gd) in HGG was lower than LGG. The differences were statistically significant (P＜0.05). The diagnosis efficiency for ΔT1 to distinguish HGG and LGG was best, the diagnostic threshold was 373.25 ms, area under the curve was 0.816, the sensitivity was 90.5%, and the specificity was 60%, P=0.001.Conclusions Quantitative measurement of T1 value can be used to distinguish high grade glioma from low grade glioma, which has clinical value in predicting tumor cell proliferation.
