ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the value of multiple parameter analysis in spectral CT scanning for the diagnosis of pulmonary nodules or masses.Methods The spectral CT scanning data in arterial phase of 319 patients with pulmonary nodules or masses confirmed by pathology and/or follow-up were analyzed retrospectively.The patients were divided into 3 groups:inflammatory group,lung cancer group and tuberculosis group.The Iodine(water)concentration,water(Iodine)concentration,the effective atomic number and the CT value of 60,70 and 80 keV single energy in the leisons were measured.One way A NOVA and LSD-t test were used for statistical analysis.Results One way A NOVA showed that the Iodine(water)concentration,water(Iodine)concentration,the effective atomic number and the CT value of 60,70 and 80 keV single energy among 3 groups in the arterial phase were all statistically different(P<0.05).T he LSD-t test showed there were statistical differences of Iodine content and effective atomic number between tuberculosis group and inflammatory group,lung cancer group and inflammation group(P<0.05).There were statistical differences between tuberculosis group and lung cancer group,inflammation group and lung cancer group in water concentration(P<0.05).The statistical differences in CT value of 60,70 and 80 keV single energy between tuberculosis group and inflammatory group,inflammation group and tuberculosis group were also found(P<0.05).Conclusion Multiple parameter analysis of spectral CT scanning in arterial phase could attribute to the diagnosis and differential diagnosis of pulmonary nodules or masses.
ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the effect of CT angiography on the qualitative and differential diagnosis in small pulmonary nodules.Methods 120 patients with pulmonary small nodular lesions from September 2014 to October 2015 in our hospital were selected,and they were divided into the observation group and control group according to pathological type.the patients with malignant pathology were in the observation group,with totaling 64 cases;the patients with benign pathology were selected as a control group,with a total of 56 cases.Lesion type,sensitivity,vascular sign type,CT enhancement value and the ratio of enhancement value to aorta value in the two groups were compared and analyzed after the CT scan.Results In the observation group,positive CT angiography sign was 50 cases while negative ones was 14 cases,the sensitivity was 78.1%;In the control group,CT angiography sign was positive in 16 cases,negative in 40 cases,with the sensitivity of 28.6%.Comparing of two vascular symptoms sensitive case, there was a significant difference(χ2 =6.781,P =0.012).Vascular symptoms genotyping were compared in vascular symptoms positive patients,the results showed significant differences(χ2 =7.694,6.964,5.993,6.012,all P CT angiography features has played a very important role in qualitative and differential diagnosis of small nodular lesions in the lungs.It is of great significance in the clinical diagnosis and treatment,and is worth further promotion.
ABSTRACT
Objective To discuss the applied value of multislice CT scan in combination with 99 MTC -MI-BI -SPECT for the diagnosis of isolated pulmonary nodule lesions.Methods 60 patients with solitary pulmonary nodules shadow in the X -ray film from July 2014 to August 2015 in our hospital were selected and detected by spiral CT scanning and 99mTC -MIBI -SPECT imaging.Scan results and pathological examination or surgery were com-pared,specificity,sensitivity and accuracy of pulmonary nodules were concluded about the method in the differential diagnosis isolation.Results The specificity,sensitivity and accuracy of multislice spiral CT scanning alone were 73.6%,78.2%,79.3% respectively;The specificity,sensitivity and accuracy of 99mTC -MIBI -SPECT imaging alone,were 82.6%,78.2%,79.3% respectively;The specificity,sensitivity and accuracy of multislice CT scan com-bined with 99mTC -MIBI -SPECT imaging were 93.3%,93.2%,93.8% respectively.The accuracy of combined detection was significantly higher than that of 99mTC -MIBI -SPECT examination(χ2 =6.783,P =0.010)or CT scan (χ2 =8.012,P =0.008).Conclusion Multislice CT scanning combined with 99mTC -MIBI -SPECT imaging has better effect in diagnosing pulmonary nodule lesions,which is superior to the method alone.The combination meth-od can obviously improve the detection rate of lung nodule lesions,which is,worthy of further promotion.
