Evaluation of the changes in microcirculation of the pulmonary cancers before and after interventional therapy by DSA / 介入放射学杂志

Objective According to the changes of microcirculation in the pulmonary cancers, the treatment effect was evaluated after the vascular interventional therapy.Methods Angiography of 138 primary pulmonary carcinomas, and the feeding arteries were performed. Areas of mass blush were measured for 81 cases before and after therapy. The tumour blush was considered to be the imaging appearance of the microcirculation of the lung carcinoma. The angiographic images were collected by digital image system (DSA and movie). Results (1) The rate of the tumour blush appearance was 88.8% in this group. (2) The areas of the lung carcinoma blush in 81 cases before and after therapy were (941.4?73.2)mm 2 and (427.9? 93.8 )mm 2( P
