ABSTRACT

Objective:To investigate the stiffness characteristic of triple-negative human breast cancer at different size in a implantation nude female mice model using shear wave elastography(SWE) and to compare the clinical pathologic features of tumors with elasticity variables.Methods:Human breast cancer MDA-MB-231 cells were injected into 30 nude female mice and 27 transplanted tumors were successfully found in nude female mice. Ultrasound and SWE were longitudinally performed on maximum diameter plane of 21 tumours in 21 nude mice. The elastic parameters of maximal elasticity(Emax), mean elasticity (Emean) and standard deviation of elasticity(Esd) were recorded. The mice were divided into 3 groups according to the tumor size. They were group A with tumor size less than or equal to 5 mm, group B with tumor size greater than 5 mm and less than or equal to 10 mm, group C with tumor size larger than 10 mm and smaller than or equal to 15 mm. Compared with pathology, the relationships between Ki67 of transplanted tumor and elastic parameters were analyzed.Results:As the transplanted tumors increased, the values of Emax, Esd, Ki67 all increased. The lesions maximal size, Emax, Esd, Ki67 were significant higher in group B ( P<0.001, P=0.006, P=0.002, P=0.026) and group C ( P<0.001, P<0.001, P<0.001, P=0.028) than group A. The other parameters were not significantly different among the groups(all P>0.05). The size of transplanted tumors was significantly and positively correlated with Emax ( rs=0.673, P=0.001), Esd ( rs=0.661, P=0.001), and Ki67 ( rs=0.509, P=0.018). Conclusions:SWE Emax and Esd can reflect the tumor tissue stiffness change and biological activity during the tumor growth.

ABSTRACT

Objective To explore the ultrasound-guided diffuse optical tomography (DOT) distribution difference and clinical characteristics of T 1-T3 breast carcinoma. Methods Four hundred and forty-seven breast cancer patients with 455 breast lesions were enrolled.The lesion maximal diameter and total hemoglobin concentration(THC) were obtained by ultrasound-guided DOT before breast surgery biopsy.The patients age,body mass index(BMI),and the distances from lesion to skin and nipple were measured,lymph node status were also assessed.According to the 7th Edition of the AJCC Cancer Staging, all tumors were divided into T1( ≤ 2 cm),T2(2 cm < lesion ≤ 5 cm),and T3( > 5 cm) three groups according to maximum diameter on ultrasound.Results Out of 455 breast cancer lesions,148 lesions were stage T1,251 lesions were stage T2,56 lesions were T3.The age,lesion size,lesion THC and the distances between lesions and nipples of breast cancer patients were found that there were significant differences among T1,T2 and T3(all P = 0.000). With T stages increasing,the age of breast cancers patients decreased,the distance between lesions and nipples decreased,the THC increased.THC of breast cancer T 2 [(221.0 ± 56.0)μmol/L] and T3[(233.1 ± 54.0)μmol/L] were significant higher than that of T1 [(181.6 ± 70.4)μmol/L](all P = 0.000).There were all no significant difference for BMI and the distancefrom lesion to skin among different stages T( P > 0.05).With T stages increasing,the ratio of lymph node metastasis increased(T1 26.4%,T2 49.8%,T3 55.4%; P =0.000).Conclusions With breast cancer T stages increasing,T HC increases,the age of the patients decreases,lymph node metastasis rate increases.

ABSTRACT

Objective To investigate the clinical value of conventional ultrasonographic ( US),US-guided diffuse optical tomography ( US-guided DOT ) and both combined to assess treatment response of breast cancer to neoadjuvant chemotherapy( NAC). Methods Eighty-eight breast cancer patients,totally 93 lesions were included in the study. Pre-and post-last chemotherapy,size,and total hemoglobin concentration ( THC) of each lesion were measured by conventional US and US-guided DOT before biopsy,the change of lesion Size( ΔSize) and the change of THC( ΔTHC) were calculated respectively.Based on the guidelines to evaluate the response to treatment in solid tumors,the responses to NAC were classified into complete response, partial response, static disease, progressive disease groups. The histological response to chemotherapy were categorised as partial pathological response and complete pathological response using Miller and Payne system. Results Of 93 breast cancers,the overall response rate was 81.7%,the cPR rate was 24.7%. According to ROC curve analysis,when ΔSize 42.6% and ΔTHC 23.9% as cutoff values to evaluate the complete response and partial response,the area under the curve ( AUC ) were 0.666 and 0.751,respectively,the AUC of US and US-guided DOT combined in parallel and in series were 0.680 and 0.737 respectively.When ΔSize 64.5% and ΔTHC 27.2% as cutoff values to evaluate complete pathologial response,the AUC were 0.690 and 0.728 respectively,the AUC of US and US-guided DOT combined in parallel and in series were 0.693 and 0.726 respectively. Conclusions US-guided DOT and US can be used to predict breast cancers response to NAC,US and US-guided DOT combined in parallel and in series can not improve response prediction comparing with US or US-guided DOT alone.

ABSTRACT

Objective To investigate the value of ultrasound-guided diffuse optical tomography (US-guided DOT) to predict clinical efficacy of breast cancer neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC).Methods Eighty-eight breast cancer patients with 93 lesions were included.Pre-and post-last chemotherapy,the size,total hemoglobin concentration (THC) of each lesion were measured by ultrasonography (US) and US-guided DOT.Based on the guidelines to evaluate the response to treatment in solid tumors,the lesions of treated breast cancer patients were divided into 4 types of responses to NAC:complete response (CR),partial response (PR),stable disease (SD),and progressive disease (PD).Efficient groups include CR and PR groups.Results As expected,no significant difference was found in size and THC for untreated lesions (all P >0.05).However,for the treated lesions(P =0.001),THC,pre-vs post-treatment size changes (△Size%) (P =0.002) and THC changes (△THC%) (P <0.001) were significantly varied among CR,PR,SD,PD groups.When compared with pre-treated,tumor sizes after treatment were changed significantly in all CR(P <0.001),PR(P <0.001),SD (P =0.023) and PD (P =0.001),while significant change of THC was only found in CR(P <0.001),PR(P <0.001) and SD (P =0.002).When △THC% =23.9% as the threshold for prediction of NAC efficiency,the area under the curve of ROC was 0.75,and the sensitivity was 73.7%,specificity was 76.5 %,positive predictive value was 93.3 %,negative predictive value was 39.4%,accuracy was 74.2%.Conclusions △size% changes in consistent with △THC% among the intergroups,but their changes levels are different,the highest change percent appears in CR,gradually decreased in PR,SD groups.△THC% will contribute to predict preoperative clinical NAC efficacy.

ABSTRACT

Objective To retrospectively study the quantitative features and diagnostic value of 3-dimensional shear wave elastography (3D-SWE) in breast lesions.Methods A total of 198 consecutive women with 198 breast lesions (125 malignant,73 benign) were included,who underwent conventional ultrasound (US) and 3D-SWE before surgical excision.Quantitative parameters of transverse planes,sagittal planes and coronal planes were calculated,including maximum elasticity (Emax-w),mean elasticity (Emean-w),standard deviation (Esd) of the whole lesion and ratio between the stiffest elasticity (Emean-s)in the lesion and the fatty tissue (Eratio).Area under ROC curve(AUC) for combination of quantitative parameters and US were calculated.Results The AUC,sensitivity and specificity for US were 0.919,88.0% and 78.1 %,respectively.In the total 198 lesions,Emax-w,Emean-w,Esd,Eratio and Emean s were significantly lower in coronal planes than those in transverse and sagittal planes (all P <0.001).AUC for combination of each quantitative parameter and US were significantly higher than those of US (all P <0.05),except Emean-w of transverse plane,while there was no significant difference among the three orthogonal plane (P>0.05).Sensitivity significantly increased by combining US with Emean-s,Eratio (transverse,sagittal and coronal planes),Emean-w (coronal and sagittal planes) or Esd (coronal and transverse planes) (all P<0.05).Combination of US and Emean w of coronal plane yielded significantly higher sensitivity than those of transverse and sagittal planes.Conclusions Combination of quantitative features of 3D-SWE and US can significantly increase diagnostic accuracy and sensitivity in breast lesions.Emean-w of coronal plane yields the highest sensitivity.

ABSTRACT

Objective To investigate the relationship of greyscale ultrasonographic signs and clinical pathological characteristics with axillary lymph node metastasis in invasive breast cancer.Methods Three hundred and thirty-five patients with pathologically confirmed breast cancer were retrospectively analyzed,which categorized into 2 groups,including lymph node metastasis group and lymph node non-metastasis group.The clinical and pathological characteristics included age,primary tumor size,histological grade,and molecular subtypes.The ultrasonographic features were examined including orientation,shape,margin,echo pattern,posterior acoustic feature,and calcification.Chi-Square test and Logistic regression analysis were performed to analyze the relationship of clinical pathological characteristics and greyscale ultrasonographic signs with axillary lymph node metastasis.Results Age (<45 years),primary tumor size (≥2 cm),histological grade(Ⅲ grade),molecular subtype (Luminal B),and number of margin angulation (> 10) contributed to axillary lymph node metastasis in 335 cases,according to univariate analysis (P <0.05).Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed age (OR =0.573,P =0.019),the primary tumor size (OR=2.359,P =0.001),histological grade (OR=0.529,P =0.008),and number of marginangulation (OR =1.889,P =0.031) were risk factors of axillary lymph node metastasis in breast cancer.Conclusions Univariate and multivariate analyses show the correlation between ultrasonographic features and axillary lymph node involvement.Combining with clinical pathological data,it can provide a predictor of axillary lymph node metastasis.

ABSTRACT

Objective To investigate the angiographic manifestation of the proper esophageal artery (PEA),the hish risk factom for the presence of the anomalous PEA in hemoptysis and to evaluate the safety of transcatheter aaefial embolization(TAE) of the PEA using gelatin sponge(GS).Methods Selective esophageal arteriography WSS performed in forty-three patients with hemoptysis,including 15 cases of pulmonary tuberculosis,18 cases of bmnchiectasis,7 cases of posttuberculous bronchiectasis and three cases of lung cancer. One case experienced failure of bronchial arterial embolization. The angiographic manifestation of the PEAs Was studied.The complications of the procedure and clinical results were observed in the patients who underwent TAE using GS.Results Thirty-nine PEAs were catheterized selectively in 37 patients(86.0%).Eighteen anomalous PEAs(46.2%)were catheterized selectively in 17 patients (45.9%).The anomalous PEAs showed tortuosity,dilatation,hyperplasia,shunting with pulmonary artery and anastomosis with the bronchial artery.All lesions involved basal segment of inferior pulmonary lobar. Bronchiectasis Was the most frequent disease for PEA abnormality. No complications occurred and satisfactory curative effect Was achieved with TAE of the anomalous PEAs.Conclusions It is necessary to perform selective proper esophageal arteriography when the lesion involves basal segment of inferior pulmonary lobar in hemoptysis.Supplemental TAE of the anomalous PEA using GS is safe and valuable in the management of hemoptysis.

ABSTRACT

Objective To study the subclavian artery angiography for hemoptysis and its clinical value.Methods Thirty-eight cases of hemoptysis undertook subclavian artery angiography after embolization of bronchial arteries and branches of thoracic aorta. Group A: 4 recurrent cases underwent subclavian artery angiography (unilateral: n =2, bilateral: n =2). Group B: 16 cases underwent subclavian artery angiography according to the manifestation on X-ray and CT (right: n =10, left: n =6). Group C: 18 cases underwent bilateral subclavian artery angiography.Results of subclavian artery angiography were divided into three classes: normal(-),chaotic and hyperplasia of small branchi vessels(+),obviously bleeding (++).Some of the obviously bleeding cases were embolized and analysed for clinical efficacy and complications. Results Bleeding cases accounted for 63.2%(24/38)and bleeding subclavian arteries accounted for 50%(29/58), including(++):37.9%(22/58) and(+): 12.1%(7/58). Positive rate of chronic fibro-cavitary pulmonary tuberculosis was the highest. Bleeding sites were coincided with lung lesions. Twelve cases were embolized with the immediate cessation rate of hemoptysis reaching 100%. Eight cases with long-term follow-up showed 5 cured, 1 with significant effect and 2 recurrent. The complications occurred with fever, vomiting, chest pain, hiccup and dyspnoea.Conclusions Subclavian artery angiography has important clinical value in artery embolization for hemoptysis, especially for lesions in the upper lobes of lungs and with more fruitful result for chronic fibro-cavitary pulmonary tuberculosis.
