ABSTRACT

Objective To explore airway remodeling and air trapping in asthmatic patients with low dose CT scanning and quantitative analysis. Methods 52 stable asthmatic patients in which 29 were severe and 23 were slight,and 20 healthy control cases were underwent low dose dual phase CT scanning. The LA/BSA, WA/BSA, TA/BSA, WA%and Pi10WA were analyzed as airway remolding indexes. The MLD of expiratory, VI-850 (%) of expiratory, MLD E/I, VI-850E-I (%) and VI-850/-950E-I (%) were analyzed as air-trapping indexes. One-Way ANOVA or H Kruskal-Wallis was used to analyze the above indicators. Results Airway remodeling indexes and LA/BSA were (9.6 ± 2.6), (11.0 ± 3.4) and (12.6 ± 3.0)mm2/m2 in severe asthmatics group, non-severe asthmatics group and healthy control group respectively, and there was significant difference between the three groups (F=5.60, P=0.006). WA%of each group was (65.1 ± 2.5)%, (63.3 ± 4.4)%and (62.0 ± 3.0)%, and there was significant difference between the three groups (F=5.53,P=0.006). The Pi10WA was (18.4±2.6), (17.7±3.1) and (16.4±1.4) mm2 respectively with significant difference between the three groups (F=3.59 ,P=0.033). Air-trapping indexes, MLD of expiratory of each group was-(771 ± 59),-(724 ± 43) and-(676 ± 60) HU respectively with significant difference (F=5.60, P=0.006). VI-850(%) of expiratory of each group was 30.79(30.45)%, 13.53(12.09)%and 2.85(6.87)%respectively with significant difference (H=17.20,P<0.001). Conclusions Low dose of CT scan and quantitative analysis can provide an objective and quantitative information for patients with airway disease of asthma, and both WA% and Pi10WA were objective indexes. The severe asthmatic patients were associated with obvious airway remodeling and air trapping compared with non-severe asthmatic patients.

ABSTRACT

Purpose To explore the CT manifestations and pathological features of pneumonia-type lung cancer, and to improve the diagnosis capability of pneumonia-type lung cancer. Materials and Methods CT and pathologic features of 33 cases of biopsy or surgical pathology confirmed pneumonia-type lung cancer patients were retrospectively analyzed and classified according to the new pulmonary adenocarcinoma classification. Results Among the 33 pneumonia-type lung cancer subjects, CT showed multiple distributions within both lungs in 22 cases, lateral lobe distribution in 9 cases, segmental distribution in 2 cases. Lung consolidation was found in all lesions, among them 21 cases appeared mainly as lower lobe consolidation, 32 cases as inflatable bronchial symptoms within the consolidation, including inflatable bronchoconstriction in 24 cases;consolidation with multiple pulmonary nodules found in 23 cases;ground glass shadowing around or distal to the consolidation found in 26 cases;combined with cysts or honeycomb lung symptom in 13 cases. Inhomogeneous mild enhancement of lung consolidation after enhancement found in 18 cases and inhomogeneous moderate enhancement in 15 cases;blood vessel branch shadow within the consolidation was visible in 21 cases. Pathology results revealed 26 cases of invasive mucinous adenocarcinoma, and 7 cases of invasive mucinous adenocarcinoma partial mixed with papillary or alveolar adenocarcinoma. Conclusion CT features of pneumonia-type lung cancer are single or multiple opacities, within which inflatable bronchial symptoms can be observed, with multiple nodules and ground glass shadowing, cysts or honeycomb symptom can also be found concomitant, the lesions expand, increase and spread to both lungs, taking its dynamic change features into consideration will also help to improve the diagnostic accuracy.

ABSTRACT

Purpose To investigate the value of three-dimensional quantitative measurement of spiral CT in evaluating tumor size and preoperative T stage in stage I non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Materials and Methods The complete data of 125 patients with stage I NSCLC confirmed surgically and pathologically were compared in terms of maximum tumor diameter and T stage analysis by means of three-dimensional quantitative CT measurement, two-dimensional measurement and general pathology measurement. Results The mean maximum tumor diameter of these 125 patients measured by quantitative three-dimensional CT measurement, two-dimensional measurement and general pathology measurement were (26.21±8.14) mm, (27.03±9.90) mm and (25.60±9.31) mm, respectively. The difference in mean maximum tumor diameter by two-dimensional measurement and three-dimensional quantitative measurement was significant, and remained so when two-dimensional measurement and pathology measurement was compared (t=2.377, P0.05). Bland-Altman analysis showed that three-dimensional quantitative measurement had higher consistency than two-dimensional measurement when compared with the gold standard pathology measurement. When three-dimensional quantitative measurement was taken to be the staging criterion, 20% results (25 cases) obtained by two-dimensional measurement proved to be inconsistent. Conclusion Compared with two-dimensional measurement, quantitative three-dimensional CT measurement can provide more accurate information in maximum tumor diameter and T stage for patients with stage I NSCLC, therefore can be applied as a more accurate criterion in preoperative staging and prognosis of stage I NSCLC.

ABSTRACT

Objective To evaluate the relevance of MSCT pulmonary function parameters and pulmonary function test (PFT) parameters, and to define the reference value of MSCT pulmonary function parameters. Methods Thirty male volunteers received clinical PFT and MSCT scan. MSCT scan was perfomed at the end of the maximum inspiratory and maximum expiratory. All data were analyzed with the lung analysis software of computer-aided inspection system correlatedly with pulmonary function parameters. Results The lung volume at full inspiratory volume (Vin) and full expiratory volume (Vex) in MSCT scan had good correlation with total lung capacity (TLC) and residual volume (RV) (r=0.90, P<0.01; r=0.74, P<0.01). Vex/Vin was correlated with RV/TLC (r=0.74, P<0.01), and Vin-Vex was correlated with MVC (r=0.85, P<0.01). In inspiration, the average lung density was (-879.51±32.82) HU, the density per unit volume was (0.12±0.03) g/cm3, while in expiratory they were (-688.14±62.38) HU and (0.31±0.06) g/cm3. Conclusion MSCT pulmonary function tests with the analysis software of computer-aided inspection system have good correlation with PFT.

ABSTRACT

Objective To study the CT findings of pulmonary mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT) lymphoma. Methods The CT examinations of 12 patients with pathologically proven pulmonary MALT lymphoma were reviewed retrospectively. Evaluated imaging findings included number, distribution,shape, attenuation and other associated findings of each lesion were evaluated. Results Thirty-two pulmonary lesions, including consolidations, masses, nodules and lesions with ground glass attenuation,were identified in 12 patients. Multiple lesions were founded in 10 of 12 patients and solitary lesion in 2 patients. Multiple lesions found in one lung in 2 patients, and multiple lesions found in both lungs in 8 patients. Ten cases demonstrated 21 consolidation lesions with air bronchogram, and one of the ten cases demonstrated two lesions with airway dilatation. Three cases demonstrated 5 masses or nodular lesions, 3 of these 5 lesions showed air bronchogram. Two cases demonstrated 6 ground glass attenuation lesions. One case showed mediastinal and hilar lymphadenopathy. Conclusion Pulmonary MALT lymphoma usually appears as multiple bilateral consolidations, masses, nodules with air bronchogram or lesions with groundglass attenuation at CT imaging. The imaging findings described above and with an indolent clinical course may suggest the diagnosis of pulmonary MALT lymphoma.
