- Abstract : Background: In patients with colorectal liver metastases (CRLM) preoperative imaging may include contrast‐enhanced (ce) MRI and [ 18 F]fluorodeoxyglucose ( 18 F‐FDG) PET–CT. This study assessed trends and variation between hospitals and oncological networks in the use of preoperative imaging in the Netherlands. Methods: Data for all patients who underwent liver resection for CRLM in the Netherlands between 2014 and 2018 were retrieved from a nationwide auditing database. Multivariable logistic regression analysis was used to assess use of ceMRI, 18 F‐FDG PET–CT and combined ceMRI and 18 F‐FDG PET–CT, and trends in preoperative imaging and hospital and oncological network variation. Results: A total of 4510 patients were included, of whom 1562 had ceMRI, 872 had 18 F‐FDG PET–CT, and 1293 had combined ceMRI and 18 F‐FDG PET–CT. Use of ceMRI increased over time (from 9·6 to 26·2 per cent; P < 0·001), use of 18 F‐FDG PET–CT decreased (from 28·6 to 6·0 per cent; P < 0·001), and use of both ceMRI and 18 F‐FDG PET–CT 16·9 per cent) remained stable. Unadjusted variation in the use of ceMRI, 18 F‐FDG PET–CT, and combined ceMRI and 18 F‐FDG PET–CT ranged from 5·6 to 100 per cent between hospitals. After case‐mix correction, hospital and oncological network variation was found for all imaging modalities. Discussion: Significant variation exists concerning the use of preoperative imaging for CRLM between hospitals and oncological networks in the Netherlands.

Abstract : A nationwide population‐based overview from 2014 to 2018 in the Netherlands showed an increased use of contrast‐enhanced MRI and decreased use of PET–CT. There was significant hospital variation in the use of both MRI and PET–CT. Wide variation in the use of preoperative MRI and FDG‐PET‐CT Abstract : Antecedentes: En pacientes con metástasis hepáticas colorrectales ( colorrectal liver metastases, CRLM), los estudios de imagen preoperatorios pueden incluir resonancia magnética con contraste (ce)MRI y 18 F‐FDG‐PET‐CT. Este estudio evaluó las tendencias y la variación entre los hospitales y las redes oncológicas en el uso de estudios de imagen preoperatorios en los Países Bajos. Métodos: Todos los pacientes que se sometieron a una resección hepática por CRLM en los Países Bajos entre 2014 y 2018 fueron seleccionados a partir de una base de datos a nivel nacional auditada. El análisis de regresión logística multivariable se utilizó para evaluar el uso de ceMRI, de 18 F‐FDG‐PET‐CT y de ceMRI combinado con 18 F‐FDG‐PET‐CT, así como para determinar las tendencias en los estudios de imagen preoperatorios y las variaciones hospitalarias y de la red oncológica. Resultados: En total, se incluyeron 4.510 pacientes, de los cuales 1.562 se sometieron a ceMRI, 872 a 18 F‐FDG‐PET‐CT y 1.293 a ceMRI combinado con 18 F‐FDG‐PET‐CT. El uso de ceMRI aumentó con el tiempo del 9, 6% al 26, 2% ( P < 0, 001), el uso de 18 F‐FDG‐PET‐CT disminuyó (25% a 6, 0%, P < 0, 001) y el uso de ceMRI y 18 F‐FDG‐PET‐ CT (17%) se mantuvo estable. La variación no ajustada entre hospitales en el uso de ceMRI, 18 F‐FDG‐PET‐CT y la combinación de ceMRI y 18 F‐FDG‐PET‐CT oscilaba del 5% al 10%. Después de la corrección por case‐mix, la variación hospitalaria y de la red oncológica persistía en todas las pruebas de imagen. Conclusión: En los Países Bajos existe una variación significativa entre hospitales y redes oncológicas respecto al uso de pruebas de imagen preoperatorias para el CRLM. El uso de MRI está aumentando, mientras que el uso de 18 F‐FDG‐PET‐CT está disminuyendo. … (more)
