ABSTRACT
Objective:To investigate the localization and identification value of high frequency ultrasound in displaying connection nerves of SNT, and to improve the accuracy of ultrasound diagnosis.Methods: Retrospective analysis the results of high frequency ultrasound to 49 cases proved by pathology annually patients (54 tumors, 54 connection nerves), and compared with the results of pathological diagnosis, evaluating the accuracy of high frequency ultrasound in displaying connection nerves. Results: The longitudinal section appearance of tumor connection nerve showed hypoechoic band and parallel fine belt-like structure surrounded by hyperechoic lines, it was enlarged gradually and became triangular close to the tumor. To the distribution of sex, age and course of the disease, the rates of high frequency ultrasound in displaying connection nerves were no significant difference (x2=0.083,x2=0.454,x2=1.277;P>0.05). The rate of high frequency ultrasound in displaying connection nerves of SNT was 94.4%, compared with the results of pathological diagnosis, the distribution ratio and the rate of high frequency ultrasound in displaying connection nerves showed no significant difference(x2=0.015,P>0.05).Conclusion: When using high frequency ultrasound observed connection nerves of SNT, there were obvious image characteristics, and the rate of high frequency ultrasound in displaying connection nerves of SNT was high, it would be a better value to diagnostic SNT.
