Summary:
The goal of this innovative project is to evaluate the correspondence between several
imaging modalities for characterizing the elasticity of healthy and pathological renal
tissue which could help improve the realism of 3D prints used by urological surgeons and
allow the identification of new, complementary imaging biomarkers. The main objective is
to develop a predictive model of the biomechanical properties of normal and pathological
kidney tissue, as assessed by the reference method (Magnetic Resonance
(MR)-elastography).
Detailed description:
Medical imaging plays a key role in the diagnostic and therapeutic management of renal
cell carcinomas. It can be used to confirm the presence of a tumor, localize it, suggest
malignancy or even histological subtype, guide sampling, perform TNM staging, assist in
surgical scheduling, monitor therapeutic efficacy in the event of systemic treatment,
guide ablathermy procedures and look for relapses after curative treatments have ended.
Imaging of kidney tumors relies on three complementary imaging modalities: ultrasound
(US), Computed Tomography based on X-ray absorption (CT-scan) and magnetic resonance
imaging (MRI). The most commonly performed examination remains the CT scan, which is used
to print 3D models. However, the correlation between renal parenchyma densities and renal
tumors (before and during the scan acquisition times after injection) and elasticity
parameters measured by US and MRI has never been explored.
This trial aim to evaluate the correspondence between several imaging modalities for
characterizing the elasticity of healthy and pathological kidney tissue. It will also
improve the realism of 3D models used by surgeons, and identify new complementary imaging
biomarkers.
To achieve this aim, 50 patients will undergo DWI -elastography (Diffusion Weigthed
Imaging-elastography) and MR-elastography sequences, as well as an US before the surgery.
After surgery, a fragment of the resected specimen will be used to perform mechanical
tests to determine the real hardness of the tissue.
