Abstract: Investigate reproducibility of two segmentation methods for multicompartment dosimetry, including normal tissue absorbed dose (NTAD) and tumour absorbed dose (TAD), in hepatocellular carcinoma patients treated with yttrium-90 (90Y) glass microspheres.TARGET was a retrospective investigation in 209 patients with < 10 tumours per lobe and at least one tumour ≥ 3 cm ± portal vein thrombosis. Dosimetry was compared using two distinct segmentation methods: anatomic (CT/MRI-based) and count threshold-based on pre-procedural 99mTc-MAA SPECT. In a round robin substudy in 20 patients with ≤ 5 unilobar tumours, the inter-observer reproducibility of eight reviewers was evaluated by computing reproducibility coefficient (RDC) of volume and absorbed dose for whole liver, whole liver normal tissue, perfused normal tissue, perfused liver, total perfused tumour, and target lesion. Intra-observer reproducibility was based on second assessments in 10 patients ≥ 2 weeks later.99mTc-MAA segmentation calculated higher absorbed doses compared to anatomic segmentation (n = 209), 43.9% higher for TAD (95% limits of agreement [LoA]: - 49.0%, 306.2%) and 21.3% for NTAD (95% LoA: - 67.6%, 354.0%). For the round robin substudy (n = 20), inter-observer reproducibility was better for anatomic (RDC range: 1.17 to 3.53) than 99mTc-MAA SPECT segmentation (1.29 to 7.00) and similar between anatomic imaging modalities (CT: 1.09 to 3.56; MRI: 1.24 to 3.50). Inter-observer reproducibility was better for larger volumes. Perfused normal tissue volume RDC was 1.95 by anatomic and 3.19 by 99mTc-MAA SPECT, with corresponding absorbed dose RDC 1.46 and 1.75. Total perfused tumour volume RDC was higher, 2.92 for anatomic and 7.0 by 99mTc-MAA SPECT with corresponding absorbed dose RDC of 1.84 and 2.78. Intra-observer variability was lower for perfused NTAD (range: 14.3 to 19.7 Gy) than total perfused TAD (range: 42.8 to 121.4 Gy).Anatomic segmentation-based dosimetry, versus 99mTc-MAA segmentation, results in lower absorbed doses with superior reproducibility. Higher volume compartments, such as normal tissue versus tumour, exhibit improved reproducibility.NCT03295006.
