Abstract: Objective: To investigate the value of the pre-operative amide proton transfer-weighted (APTw) MRI to assess the prognostic factors in rectal adenocarcinoma (RA). Methods: This prospective study ran from January 2022 to September 2023 and consecutively enrolled participants with RA who underwent pre-operative MRI and radical surgery. The APTw signal intensity (SI) values of RA with various tumor (T), node (N) stages, perineural invasion (PNI), and tumor grade were compared by Mann–Whitney U-test or t-test. The receiver operating characteristic curve was used to evaluate the diagnostic performance of the APTw SI values. Results: A total of 51 participants were enrolled (mean age, 58 years ± 10 [standard deviation], 26 men). There were 24 in the T1–T2 stage and 9 with positive PNI. The APTw SI max, 99th, and 95th values were significantly higher in T3–T4 stage tumor than in T1-T2; the median (interquartile range) (M (IQR)) was (4.0% (3.6–4.9%) vs 3.4% (2.9– 4.3%), p = 0.017), (3.7% (3.2–4.1%) vs 3.2% (2.8–3.8%), p = 0.013), and (3.3% (2.8–3.8%) vs 2.9% (2.3–3.5%), p = 0.033), respectively. These indicators also differed significantly between the PNI groups, with the M (IQR) (4.5% (3.6–5.7%) vs 3.7% (3.2–4.2%), p = 0.017), (4.1% (3.4–4.8%) vs 3.3% (3.0–3.9%), p = 0.022), and (3.7% (2.7–4.2%) vs 2.9% (2.6–3.5%), p = 0.045), respectively. Conclusion: Pre-operative APTw MRI has potential value in the assessment of T-staging and PNI determination in RA. Clinical relevance statement: Pre-operative amide proton transfer-weighted MRI provides a quantitative method for noninvasive assessment of T-staging and PNI in RA aiding in precision treatment planning. Key Points: The efficacy of APTw MRI in RA needs further investigation. T3–T4 stage and PNI positive APTw signal intensities were higher than T1–T2 and non-PNI, respectively. APTw MRI provides a quantitative method for assessment of T staging and PNI in RA. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
