Objective To compare the bronchial arteriography through multidetector-row CT (MDCT) with the digital subtraction angiography (DSA) via femoral artery, and evaluate the application value of bronchial arteriography through MDCT in the diagnosis and treatment of hemoptysis. Methods 133 cases complained of hemoptysis were examined by MDCT and DSA via femoral artery respectively to perform bronchial arteriography, and the differences of image results by two methods were compared. Results 129 cases with abnormal bronchial arteries were confirmed by DSA via femoral artery, 117 cases were checked by MDCT [ the positive rate was 90.7% (117/129 ) ] . 117 cases with abnormal bronchial arteries were confirmed by both MDCT and DSA via femoral artery and 4 cases did not detected any abnormal arteries by both methods. The coincidence rate of two methods was 91.0% (121 /133) . MDCT and DSA via femoral artery showed the similar origins of abnormal bronchial arteries. The coincidence rate of two methods was 100% . Conclusions There is a high coincidence rate betweenMDCT and DSA in detecting bronchial artery abnormalities. MDCT shows the origins of abnormal vessels clearly which could be a fist-choice of routine imagination for interventive operation.
ObjectiveTo investigate value of MSCT imaging on differentiating low grade pancreatic neuroendo-crine neoplasms (pNENs) from non-low grade pNENs. MethodThe clinical and CT data of 32 patients with pNENs,who were confirmed by pathological diagnosis from January 2014 to August 2015,were collected and analyzed retrospec-tively. ResultsThere were 15 patients with grade 1 in the low grade pNENs group,there were 11 patients with grade 2 and 6 patients with grade 3 in the non-low grade pNENs group.Compared with the low grade pNENs,the non-low grade pNENs had the larger diameter of the tumor (P=0.007),irregular tumor shape (P=0.006),obscure tumor margin (P=0.003),peripancreatic tissue or vascular invasion (P=0.036),lymphadenopathy (P=0.003),distant metastasis (P=0.019),lower absolute enhancement of tumor at the arterial (P=0.003) and the relative enhancement of tumor at the arterial (P=0.013). ConclusionThe analysis of MSCT features might help for differentiating low grade pNENs from non-low grade pNENs,so that more timely selection of appropriate treatment strategies would be made.
ObjectiveTo investigate the clinical value of multi-slice spiral CT perfusion imaging for blood supply of pulmonary mixed ground-glass nodules (mGGN). MethodsThe mGGN patients were retrospectively analyzed from March 2011 to May 2015 in Affiliated Hospital of Hebei University of Engineering, Handan First Hospital and Xingtai People's Hospital. Multi-slice spiral CT perfusion imaging for blood supply was applied to evaluate the blood supply of solid lesions in mGGN, and the diagnostic values of CT perfusion parameters were compared for differentiating the benigh mGGN from the malignant mGGN. ResultsTotally 97 mGGN patients were enrolled in this study, in which 80 were malignant mGGN and 17 were benigh mGGN. Blood volume (BV), peak enhancement image (PEI) and permeability surface (PS) in malignant mGGN lesions were higher than those of benign lesions, while the time to peak was less than that of benign lesions, and the differences were all statistically significant (P < 0.05). BV, PEI and PS in minimally invasive adenocarcinoma (MIA) and invasive adenocarcinoma (IAC) patients were significantly higher than those in the patients with precancerous lesions (P < 0.05). BV and PS in IAC patients were significantly higher than those in MIA patients (P < 0.05). Logistic regression analysis showed that IAC, MIA and the precancerous lesions, BV, PEI and PS were positively correlated with mGGN. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve showed that the sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value, negative predictive value, and diagnostic accuracy rates with BV+PS+PEI combined, were 95.28%, 86.65%, 91.10%, 87.52% and 91.76%, respectively, while the area under ROC curve was significantly higher than those with single parameter (P < 0.05). ConclusionMulti-slice spiral CT perfusion imaging can evaluate the blood supply of mGGN, and BV+PS+PEI combined can be used in differentiation of the benigh and malignant mGGN.

ObjectiveTo discuss the diagnostic value of multi-slice spiral CT for bronchial mucoid impaction in early central-type carcinoma of lung. MethodsWe used multi-planar reformat, maximum intensity projection and minimum intensity projection to observe the characteristics of 15 patients with bronchial mucoid impaction in early central-type carcinoma of lung treated between March 2010 and October 2013. The characteristics included location, shape and enhanced performance of the tumor and the bronchial mucoid impaction. All the cases were confi rmed by operation or pathology. ResultsAmong the 15 cases, 12 were squamous cell carcinoma and 3 adenocarcinoma; 8 occurred on the right and 7 on the left. All the tumors showed equal density and were enhanced moderately. Bronchial mucoid impaction showed low density, no enhancement, accompanied bronchiectasis and occurred in bronchi which were far from the tumor, and there were 9 cases of strip, 5 of fabrication, and 1 of nodositas or cystic carcinoma. ConclusionThe location and shape of tumor and bronchial mucoid impaction are displayed clearly by multi-slice spiral CT and enhancement scanning can differentiate tumor from bronchial mucoid impaction. Multi-slice spiral CT has important diagnostic value in bronchial mucoid impaction of primary lung cancer in its early stage.
ObjectiveTo study the application value of multi-slice CT portography (MSCTP) in the diagnosis and evaluation of esophageal and gastric varices (EGV) caused by cirrhosis. MethodsPatients with cirrhosis diagnosed between September 2009 and December 2012 were screened in this study. And the consistency of MSCTP and digestive endoscopy in the diagnosis, classification and grading of EGV in cirrhosis were evaluated. ResultsA total of 78 patients were included in this study, and there were 55 patients with EGV diagnosed by endoscopy, including 35, 16 and 4 patients with GOV1, GOV2 and IGV1 respectively by Satin type standards; and the number of patients with mild, moderate and severe EGV by general grading standards was 2, 15, and 37, respectively. In this cohort, the findings of MSCTP examination also showed that 58 patients had EGV, including 36, 17, 4 and 1 patients with GOV1, GOV2, IGV1 and IGV2 by Satin type standards; and the number of patients with grade I,Ⅱ andⅢ EGV by Kim grading standards was 5, 16 and 37, respectively. Statistical analysis showed that there was a high consistency between endoscopy and MSCTP in the diagnosis (Kappa=0.712, P=0.000), typing (Kappa=0.732, P=0.000) or grading (Kappa=0.863, P=0.000) of EGV. ConclusionMSCTP has a high application value in the diagnosis and severity evaluation of EGV in patients with cirrhosis.

Objective To study the feasibil ity and rel iabil ity of the multi-plannar reformation (MPR) of multispiral CT (MSCT) in measuring the kyphosis angle (KA) after thoracolumbar fracture. Methods From December 2007 to December 2009, 45 thoracolumbar fracture patients who underwent computed radiology (CR) and MSCT were recruited. There were 32 males and 13 females with a mean age of 48 years (range, 24-63 years), including 36 simple compression fractures and 9 burst fractures. The fracture locations were T11 in 6 cases , T12 in 11 cases, L1 in 20 cases, and L2 in 8 cases. Fracture was caused by trafffic accident in 25 cases, by fall ing from height in 12 cases, and by others in 8 cases. The imaging examination was performed after 2 hours to 7 days of injury in 22 cases and after more than 7 days in 23 cases. The KA was measured on the lateral X-ray films of CR and MPR by two observers, then the measurements were done again after three weeks. The data were statistically analyzed. Results The average KA values on CR by two observers were (20.75 ± 8.31)° and (22.49 ± 9.07)°, respectively; showing significant difference (P lt; 0.05), and the correlation was good (r=0.882, P lt; 0.05). The average KA values on MPR by two observers were (16.65 ± 8.62)° and (17.08 ± 7.88)°, respectively, showing no significant difference (P gt; 0.05), the correlation was excellent (r=0.976, P lt; 0.05). The average KA values on CR and MPR were (21.61 ± 8.43)° and (16.87 ± 8.20)°, respectively; showing significant difference (P lt; 0.05), the correlation was good (r=0.852, P lt; 0.05). Conclusion It is more feasible and rel iable in measuring the KA on MRP of MSCT than CR, but the value is larger on CR.
