The aim of this trial is to investigate the value of FAPI PET/MRI, FDG PET/MRI and MRI in diagnosing MIBC and predicting the efficacy of neoadjuvant therapy for MIBC patients, so as to guide the clinic to adjust the treatment plan in time and benefit MIBC patients.
The MIBC diagnostic study was a prospective trial. According to the inclusion and exclusion criteria, patients with suspected MIBC were enrolled and underwent FAPI PET/MRI, FDG PET/MRI and MRI examination, and the imaging data and clinical laboratory and pathologic data were collected, and the postoperative pathological results were used as the gold standard to compare the accuracy of FAPI PET/MRI, FDG PET/MRI and MRI in diagnosing MIBC. The MIBC neoadjuvant therapy efficacy assessment study was a prospective trial. Patients with MIBC were enrolled according to the inclusion and exclusion criteria, the regimen was selected individually according to the patient's condition, and the indicators were followed up until the end of time or the occurrence of an endpoint event to obtain information on survival time. FAPI PET/MRI, FDG PET/MRI and MRI were performed once before the start of neoadjuvant therapy and once after the end of therapy, and after the end of neoadjuvant therapy, patients received transurethral cystectomy of bladder tumors or radical cystectomy according to the efficacy and condition, and the combination of the imaging data and the clinical laboratory and pathological data were used to compare FAPI PET/MRI, FDG PET/ MRI and MRI in the assessment of the efficacy of neoadjuvant therapy in MIBC patients to guide clinical treatment options.

FAPI PET/MRI and FDG PET/MRI examination Data acquisition was performed using a GE Healthcare SIGNA PET/MR instrument. Enrolled patients were injected intravenously with 68Ga-FAPI or 18F-FDG tracer and underwent simultaneous PET and MRI scanning approximately 30-60 minutes after intravenous administration of the tracer at a dose of 1.85-3.7 MBq/kg. MRI examination MRI examination was performed using a Skyra 3.0T MRI scanner from Siemens, Germany, with a 16-channel phased-array surface coil, and the scanning range was from the superior margin of the iliac wing to the inferior margin of the pubic symphysis.

Diagnostic Sensitivity
It is the percentage of patients who will be correctly judged as positive (true positive) if they actually have muscle invasive bladder cancer. The formula is TP/(TP+FN)×100%.TP is true positive and FN is false negative.

Positive Expected Value (PPV)

Positive Likelihood Ratio (PLR)
the ratio of the probability that a patient who actually has muscle invasive bladder cancer is judged to be positive to the probability that a patient who actually does not have muscle invasive bladder cancer is judged to be positive. The formula was calculated as +LR = sensitivity/(1-specificity) × 100%.

Negative Likelihood Ratio (NLR)
the ratio of the probability that a patient who actually has muscle invasive bladder cancer is judged negative to the probability that a patient who actually does not have muscle invasive bladder cancer is judged negative. The formula is: -LR=(1-sensitivity)/specificity×100%.

Youden Index
the sum of sensitivity and specificity minus 1. Correct diagnostic index can be used for the comparison of two diagnostic methods, and the ideal correct diagnostic index is 100%. r = (specificity + sensitivity) - 1 = 1 - (false positive rate + false negative rate)

Complete Remission (CR)
In RECIST 1.1 Efficacy assessment criteria for conventional imaging, CR was defined as the disappearance of all target lesions, the absence of new lesions, and the normalization of tumor markers for at least 4 weeks. In PERCIST 1.1 efficacy evaluation criteria for FAPI PET/MRI and FDG PET/MRI, CR refers to the complete disappearance of tracer uptake.
