Indications for computed tomography (CT) of the musculoskeletal system, especially with the advent of 16-slice multidetector CT (MDCT), are numerous. In addition to the evaluation of the trauma patient where CT is essential when imaging complex skeletal injuries, MDCT is particularly useful in patients who have had prior surgery. In postoperative cases, metal artifact typically prohibits magnetic resonance imaging evaluation, but volume-rendering of a MDCT axial database virtually eliminates streak artifact associated with hardware. For the evaluation of masses, CT provides the ability to detect and characterize calcification, cortical disruption, and periosteal reaction. In this article, these and other indications for performance of CT of the musculoskeletal system will be discussed. 相似文献

PurposeTo evaluate the value of computed tomography (CT)–guided core needle biopsy in diagnosis of primary pulmonary lymphoma and its subtypes.Materials and MethodsA retrospective analysis of the records of all patients with primary pulmonary lymphoma between January 2005 and August 2011 was performed. There were 25 patients referred to the radiology department for CT-guided core needle biopsy. The success rate and complications were assessed.ResultsA definitive diagnosis and accurate histologic subtype were obtained in 21 patients with a success rate of 84.0%. Diagnosis was made in the other four patients with bronchoscopy and surgery. Non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) was the diagnosis in all patients. Most subtypes were mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT) lymphomas (n = 19). The remaining subtypes included three diffuse large B-cell NHLs, two peripheral T-cell lymphomas not otherwise specified, and one anaplastic large cell NHL. The success rate of core needle biopsy was 95% (18 of 19) for MALT lymphomas, 67% (2 of 3) for diffuse large B cell NHLs, and 33% (1 of 3) for other NHLs. The success rate for MALT lymphomas was significantly higher than that of non-MALT lymphomas according to Fisher exact t test (P = .031). No serious complications occurred in any patients.ConclusionsCT-guided core needle biopsy is a reliable procedure to assist in diagnosis and classification of primary pulmonary lymphomas, especially MALT lymphomas. 相似文献

Purpose
The purpose of the study was to investigate the usefulness of quantitative salivary single-photon emission computed tomography/computed tomography (SPECT/CT) using Tc-99m pertechnetate in Sjögren’s syndrome (SS).Methods
We retrospectively reviewed quantitative salivary SPECT/CT data from 95 xerostomic patients who were classified as either SS (n?=?47, male:female?=?0:47, age?=?54.60?±?13.16 y [mean?±?SD]) or non-SS (n?=?48, male:female?=?5:43, age?=?54.94?±?14.04 y) by combination of anti-SSA/Ro antibody, labial salivary gland biopsy, unstimulated whole saliva flow rate, and Schirmer’s test. Thyroid cancer patients (n?=?43, male:female?=?19:24, age?=?46.37?±?12.13 y) before radioactive iodine therapy served as negative controls. Quantitative SPECT/CT was performed pre-stimulatory 20 min and post-stimulatory 40 min after injection of Tc-99m pertechnetate (15 mCi). The %injected dose at 20 min and the %excretion between 20 and 40 min were calculated for parotid and submandibular glands, generating four quantitative parameters: %parotid uptake (%PU), %submandibular uptake (%SU), %parotid excretion (%PE), and %submandibular excretion (%SE). The most useful parameter for SS diagnosis was investigated.Results
The uptake parameters (%PU and %SU) were significantly different among the SS, non-SS, and negative controls (p?=?0.005 for %PU and p?<?0.001 for %SU, respectively), but the excretion parameters (%PE and %SE) were not (p?>?0.05 for both). The %PU and %SU were significantly lower in SS than in the negative controls and non-SS (p?<?0.05 for all pair-wise comparisons). Additionally, the %SU was significantly lower in non-SS than in the negative controls (p?<?0.05). Receiver-operating characteristic analysis revealed that the %SU had the greatest area-under-the curve of 0.720 (95% confidence interval?=?0.618–0.807). Using the optimal cut-off value of %SU?≤?0.07%, SS was identified with a sensitivity of 70.21% and a specificity of 70.83%.Conclusion
Reduced submandibular uptake of Tc-99m pertechnetate at 20 min (%SU) was proved useful for the diagnosis of SS. Quantitative salivary gland SPECT/CT holds promise as an objective imaging modality for assessment of salivary dysfunction and may facilitate accurate classification of SS.8.

Objective To retrospectively determine the frequency and risk factors of various side effects and complications after percutaneous computed
tomography–guided radiofrequency (RF) ablation of lung tumors.
Methods We reviewed and analyzed records of 112 treatment sessions in 57 of our patients (45 men and 12 women) with unresectable lung
tumors treated by ablation. Risk factors, including sex, age, tumor diameter, tumor location, history of surgery, presence
of pulmonary emphysema, electrode gauge, array diameter, patient position, maximum power output, ablation time, and minimum
impedance during ablation, were analyzed using univariate and multivariate analyses.
Results Total rates of side effects and minor and major complications occurred in 17%, 50%, and 8% of treatment sessions, respectively.
Side effects, including pain during ablation (46% of sessions) and pleural effusion (13% of sessions), occurred with RF ablation.
Minor complications, including pneumothorax not requiring chest tube drainage (30% of sessions), subcutaneous emphysema (16%
of sessions), and hemoptysis (9% of sessions) also occurred after the procedure. Regarding major complications, three patients
developed fever >38.5°C; three patients developed abscesses; two patients developed pneumothorax requiring chest tube insertion;
and one patient had air embolism and was discharged without neurologic deficit. Univariate and multivariate analyses suggested
that a lesion located ≤1 cm of the chest wall was significantly related to pain (p < 0.01, hazard index 5.76). Risk factors for pneumothorax increased significantly with previous pulmonary surgery (p < 0.05, hazard index 6.1) and presence of emphysema (p <0.01, hazard index 13.6).
Conclusion The total complication rate for all treatment sessions was 58%, and 25% of patients did not have any complications after RF
ablation. Although major complications can occur, RF ablation of lung tumors can be considered a safe and minimally invasive
procedure. 相似文献

Purpose
To determine interreader and intrareader repeatability and correlations among measurements of computerized tomography–based anthropomorphic measurements in patients with pulmonary fibrosis undergoing lung transplantation.Methods
This was an institutional review board–approved, Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act–compliant retrospective study of 23 randomly selected subjects (19 male and 4 female; median age = 69 years; range: 66-77 years) with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis undergoing pulmonary transplantation, who had also undergone preoperative thoracoabdominal computerized tomography. Five readers of varying imaging experience independently performed the following cross-sectional area measurements at the inferior endplate of the L3 vertebral body: right and left psoas muscles, right and left paraspinal muscles, total abdominal musculature, and visceral and subcutaneous fat. The following measurements were obtained at the inferior endplate of T6: right and left paraspinal muscles with and without including the trapezius muscles and subcutaneous fat. Three readers repeated all measurements to assess intrareader repeatability.Results
Intrareader repeatability was nearly perfect (interclass correlation coefficients = 0.99, P < 0.001). Interreader agreement was excellent across all 5 readers (interclass correlation coefficients: 0.71-0.99, P < 0.001). Coefficients of variance between measures ranged from 3.2%-6.8% for abdominal measurements, but were higher for thoracic measurements, up to 23.9%. Correlation between total paraspinal and total psoas muscle area was strong (r2 = 0.67, P < 0.001). Thoracic and abdominal musculature had a weaker correlation (r2 = 0.35-0.38, P < 0.001).Conclusion
Measures of thoracic and abdominal muscle and fat area are highly repeatable in patients with pulmonary fibrosis undergoing lung transplantation. Measures of muscle area are strongly correlated among abdominal locations, but inversely correlated between abdominal and thoracic locations. 相似文献10.

Purpose
The purpose of this study was to assess the influence of positron emission tomography–computed tomography (PET-CT) results on patient management from a single Canadian oncology center during its first 2 years of operation.Methods
A total of 3,779 consecutive patients, 18 years of age and older, who were referred for PET-CT imaging at the British Columbia Cancer Agency between July 1, 2005 and June 30, 2007, were included in this analysis. Results were tabulated from a standard questionnaire, which was given to referring physicians following completion of their patient's PET-CT study.Results
From July 1, 2005 to June 30, 2007, 3,779 consecutive fluoro-2-deoxyglucose PET-CT examinations were performed in patients aged 18 years or older. A total of 3,429 referring-physician surveys (90.7%) were returned. The results of the PET-CT study resulted in a change in treatment decision in 49.8% of the studies and resulted in improved decision making in 83.2% of the studies.Conclusion
This series demonstrated that the results from PET-CT studies performed at a single Canadian oncology center during the first 2 years of its operation altered patient management in 50% of cases and resulted in improved decision making in the majority of cases. 相似文献11.

PurposeTo investigate the prognostic value of 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) positron emission tomography–computed tomography (PET-CT) in predicting survival in patients with unresectable metastatic melanoma to the liver undergoing yttrium-90 (90Y) radioembolization.Materials and MethodsA retrospective review of 12 patients with unresectable hepatic melanoma metastases (5 patients with cutaneous metastases, 7 patients with ocular metastases) who underwent 18F-FDG PET-CT before 90Y was performed. Metabolically significant tumors, defined as having a long-axis diameter ≥ 1 cm and maximum standardized uptake value (SUVmax) ≥ 2.5, were identified on 18F-FDG PET-CT. SUVmax, glycolytic activity, and volume were determined for each tumor. Overall SUVmax, total tumor glycolytic activity (TGA), total metabolic tumor volume (MTV), and metabolic tumor burden (MTB) based on percentage of liver involvement (MTV/total liver volume) were calculated. Kaplan-Meier method, life-table analysis, and Cox proportional hazards model were used for statistical analysis.ResultsMedian SUVmax was 10.9 (range, 4.6–15.3), median TGA was 377.0 SUV/cm3 (range, 53.6–20,393.4 SUV/cm3), median MTV was 85.4 cm3 (range, 11.5–2,504.1 cm3), and median MTB was 5.5% (range, 0.1%–54.0%). MTB was found to be a significant negative prognostic marker of survival on univariate (P = .020) and multivariate (P = .018) analyses accounting for age and duration from metastatic diagnosis to first 90Y treatment. A 60th percentile MTB of 7.0% (hazard ratio, 5.704; P = .040) was a statistically significant cutoff. Median survivals from first 90Y treatment in patients with MTB < 7.0% and ≥ 7.0% were 10.8 months (95% confidence interval [CI], 6.8–14.8) and 4.7 months (95% CI, 1.6–7.8), respectively. SUVmax (P = .422), TGA (P = .064), and MTV (P = .065) were not found to be statistically significant.ConclusionsMTB based on 18F-FDG PET-CT performed before treatment was found to be a negative prognostic factor for patient survival after 90Y radioembolization for unresectable metastatic melanoma to liver. 相似文献

We report the utility of a combined angiography and computed tomography (angio-CT) system in assessing drug distribution to the tumor during intra-arterial chemotherapy for metastatic brain tumors in a 65-year-old man. Although digital subtraction angiography did not clearly show tumor perfusion in two cerebellar tumors, angio-CT provided definite tumor perfusion in the complicated vascular territory, and anticancer agents were infused based on its findings. To our knowledge, however, this application for intra-arterial chemotherapy of brain tumors has not been previously described. 相似文献

The purpose of this study was to investigate the feasibility of a flat-detector C-arm–guided radiographic technique (cone-beam
computed tomography [CBCT]) for percutaneous radiologic gastrostomy (PRG) insertion. Eighteen patients (13 men and 5 women;
mean age 62 years) in whom percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy (PEG) had failed underwent CBCT-guided PRG insertion. PEG failure
or unsuitability was caused by upper gastrointestinal tract obstruction in all cases. Indications for gastrostomy were esophageal
and head and neck malignancies, respectively. Before the PRG procedure, initial C-arm CBCT scans were acquired. Three- and
2-dimensional soft-tissue reconstructions of the epigastrium region were generated on a dedicated workstation. Subsequently,
gastropexy was performed with T-fasteners after CBCT-guided puncture of the stomach bubble, followed by insertion of an 14F
balloon-retained catheter through a peel-away introducer. Puncture of the stomach bubble and PRG insertion was technically
successful in all patients without alteration of the epigastric region. There was no malpositioning of the tube or other major
periprocedural complications. In 2 patients, minor complications occurred during the first 30 days of follow-up (PRG malfunction:
n = 1; slight infection: n = 1). Late complications, which were mainly tube disturbances, were observed in 2 patients. The
mean follow-up time was 212 days. CBCT-guided PRG is a safe, well-tolerated, and successful method of gastrostomy insertion
in patients in whom endoscopic gastrostomy is not feasible. CBCT provides detailed imaging of the soft tissue and surrounding
structures of the epigastric region in one diagnostic tour and thus significantly improves the planning of PRG procedures. 相似文献

Objective
To compare the diagnostic performance and radiation dose between contrast-enhanced CT (ECT) alone, and combined unenhanced and contrast-enhanced CT (UE + ECT) for the assessment of adnexal mass.Materials and Methods
This retrospective study was approved by the Institutional Review Board. A total of 146 consecutive patients (mean age, 41.1 years) who underwent preoperative unenhanced and contrast-enhanced multidetector CT of the pelvis and had adnexal masses found at surgery were included. Two readers independently evaluated the likelihood of adnexal malignancy on a 5-point scale on two different imaging datasets (ECT alone and UE + ECT). The area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC) was used to evaluate diagnostic performance. Radiation dose to patients was calculated by the volume CT dose index (CTDIvol) and the dose length products (DLP) on each dataset.Results
Of the total 178 adnexal masses, 133 masses were benign and 45 masses were malignant. For both readers, there is no significant difference of AUC values between ECT alone and UE + ECT for the detection of adnexal malignancy (reader 1, 0.93 vs. 0.95; reader 2, 0.92 vs. 0.91) (p > 0.05). The mean CTDIvol (12.6 ± 2.2 mGy) and DLP (641.2 ± 137.2 mGy) of ECT alone was significantly lower than the mean CTDIvol (21.5 ± 2.7 mGy) and DLP (923.6 ± 158.8 mGy) of UE + ECT (p < 0.0001).Conclusion
The use of unenhanced CT scan in addition to contrast-enhanced CT scan does not improve the detection of adnexal malignancy, but increases radiation exposure. 相似文献19.

Purpose
Percutaneous radiofrequency ablation is so painful that this treatment requires pain control such as conscious sedation or general anesthesia. It is still unclear which type of anesthesia is better for treatment outcomes of renal cell carcinoma. This study aimed to compare general anesthesia and conscious sedation in treating patients with renal cell carcinoma with radiofrequency ablation.Methods
Between 2010 and 2015, 51 patients with biopsy-proven renal cell carcinomas (<4 cm) were treated with computed tomography–guided radiofrequency ablation. General anesthesia was performed in 41 and conscious sedation was performed in 10 patients. Tumour size, local tumour progression, metastasis, major complication, effective dose, glomerular filtration rate difference, and recurrence-free survival rate were compared between these groups.Results
The mean tumour size was 2.1 cm in both groups (P = .673). Local tumour progression occurred in 0% (0 of 41) of the general anesthesia group, but in 40% (4 of 10) of the conscious sedation group (P = .001). Metastases in these groups occurred in 2.4% (1 of 41) of the general anesthesia group and 20% (2 of 10) of the conscious sedation group (P = .094). No major complications developed in either group after the first radiofrequency ablation session. The mean effective doses in these groups were 21.7 mSv and 21.2 mSv, respectively (P = .868). The mean glomerular filtration rate differences in the general anesthesia and conscious sedation groups were -13.5 mL/min/1.73 m2 and -19.1 mL/min/1.73 m2, respectively (P = .575). Three-year recurrence-free survival rates in these groups were 97.6% and 60.0%, respectively (P = .001).Conclusions
General anesthesia may provide better intermediate outcomes than conscious sedation in treating small renal cell carcinomas with radiofrequency ablation. 相似文献20.

PurposeTo compare the amount of sedation medication administered during radiofrequency (RF) ablation versus cryoablation of small renal masses.Materials and MethodsRecords were retrospectively reviewed in patients who underwent percutaneous computed tomography–guided RF ablation and cryoablation of small renal masses from January 2002 to June 2011 for patient and tumor characteristics, amount of medications used for moderate sedation, and complications. Sedation was performed by giving patients titrated doses of midazolam and fentanyl. Additional medications were given if the desired level of sedation was not achieved.ResultsThere were 116 patients who underwent 136 ablation procedures; 71 patients underwent RF ablation, and 65 patients underwent cryoablation. RF ablation was associated with a significantly higher mean dose of fentanyl (mean dose for RF ablation, 236.43 μg; mean dose for cryoablation, 172.27 μg; P<.001). RF ablation was also associated with a higher mean dose of midazolam (mean dose for RF ablation, 4.5 mg; mean dose for cryoablation, 3.27 mg; P<.001). In the RF ablation group, two patients required additional sedation with droperidol. As a result of oversedation, two patients in the RF ablation cohort required sedation reversal with naloxone and flumazenil. None of the patients who underwent cryoablation required sedation reversal. No other sedation-related complications occurred.ConclusionsCryoablation of small renal masses was performed with less sedation medication than RF ablation. This finding suggests renal cryoablation is less painful than RF ablation; however, prospective studies with validated pain scales are needed to confirm these results. 相似文献
