螺旋CT三期扫描对肝纤维化诊断价值研究

目的探讨螺旋CT三期扫描对肝纤维化的诊断价值。方法对66例经肝穿刺活检病理证实的慢性乙型肝炎肝纤维化患者组和42例正常对照组进行螺旋CT三期增强扫描。根据纤维化程度分期进行影像资料和相关指标的统计分析。结果肝左叶增大,肝表面形态及肝实质密度的改变,脾脏增大,门静脉增宽和侧枝循环的建立等影像学改变,随着肝纤维化严重程度的加重而有统计学差异。本研究显示57例肝纤维化患者螺旋CT三期扫描诊断肝纤维化52例,敏感性91.2%,特异性77.8%。各期肝纤维化分期准确28例,准确率49.1%;准确判断轻度纤维化(S1、S2)或重度纤维化(S3、S4)44例,准确率77.2%,诊断早期肝硬化16例,准确率84.2%。结论螺旋CT三期扫描能判断肝纤维化的程度,而且是动态观察肝纤维化的病程演进和临床随访的有效手段。

Focal vulnerability of developing brain: CT studies on disproportionally dilated lateral ventricles

Summary Cranial computed tomography (CT) of 108 cases with dilated lateral ventricles was reviewed to elucidate the relationship between focal vulnerability of developing brain and disproportional dilatation of lateral ventricles. CT findings of 108 cases with symmetrical dilatation of lateral ventricles were classified into three types by morphometry of lateral ventricles: anterior horn predominant type (31 cases), diffuse type (36 cases), posterior horn predominant type (41 cases). Posterior horn predominant type has a tendency to occur in congenital anomalies and premature brain damage, and anterior horn predominant type in infantile brain damage. This disproportional dilatation of anterior or posterior horns suggests a vulnerability of periventricular structure in developing brain.     

CT appearances of hydatid disease at various locations

Hydatid disease has characteristic imaging features on CT, which allow accurate preoperative diagnosis in most cases. However, when it occurs at unusual locations the diagnosis is often difficult, especially as the imaging appearance varies at different sites. In this article we have presented a pictorial review of the CT features of disease due to Echinococcus granulosus at various sites in the human body.     

Multi-detector CT angiography for lower gastrointestinal bleeding: Can it select patients for endovascular intervention?

This is a retrospective review of the results at our institution of using multi-detector CT angiography (CTA) to localise lower gastrointestinal (GI) bleeding. We hypothesised that in our patient population: (i) CTA was unlikely to demonstrate bleeding in patients who were haemodynamically stable; (ii) in haemodynamically unstable patients in whom CTA was undertaken, the results could be used to select patients who would benefit from catheter angiography; and (iii) in haemodynamically unstable patients in whom CTA was undertaken, a subgroup of patients could be identified who would benefit from primary surgical treatment, avoiding invasive angiography completely. A retrospective review was conducted of the clinical records of all patients undergoing CTA for lower GI haemorrhage at our institution between 1 January 2005 and 30 June 2007. Out of the 20 patients examined, 10 had positive CTAs demonstrating the bleeding site. Nine were haemodynamically unstable at the time of the study. Four patients with positive CT angiograms were able to be treated directly with surgery and avoided invasive angiography. Ten patients had negative CTAs. Four of these were haemodynamically unstable, six haemodynamically stable. Only one required intervention to secure haemostasis, the rest stopped spontaneously. No haemodynamically stable patient who had a negative CTA required intervention. CTA is a useful non-invasive technique for localising the site of lower GI bleeding. In our patient population, in the absence of haemodynamic instability, the diagnostic yield of CTA was low and bleeding was likely to stop spontaneously. In haemodynamically unstable patients, a positive CTA allowed patients to be triaged to surgery or angiography, whereas there was a strong association between a negative CTA and spontaneous cessation of bleeding.

CT的分叶征表现在肺内孤立结节影像诊断中的价值

目的探讨CT的分叶征表现在肺内孤立结节影像诊断的价值以及CT多平面重组（MPR）对此征检出的意义。方法观察病理证实的周围型小肺癌137例及良性肺内结节45例，将结节的边缘分为4型。对28例肺癌、22例良性结节行MPR，考察其显示分叶征的作用。引入可能性比值（likelihood ratios，LR）以量化良恶性病变在形态学上存在重叠的表现。结果Ⅰ型边缘结节对良性病变的特异性为83．3％（20／24），敏感性为44．4％（20／45）。Ⅳ型边缘结节对周围型小肺癌的特异性为97．6％（83／85），敏感性为60．7％（83／137）。表明Ⅰ型边缘是良性病变的特点；而Ⅳ型边缘是恶性病变的特征。Ⅳ型边缘的结节恶性病变在MPR重组图像上的检出率为64．3％（18／28），与横断面扫描差异有统计学意义（P〈0．01）。结论分叶征对肺内孤立结节的诊断有价值，MPR配合横断面薄层图像有助于提高该征的检出率。     

多层螺旋CT血管成像在支气管动脉灌注化疗前的定位价值

目的探讨多层螺旋CT血管成像(MSCTA)在支气管动脉(BA)灌注化疗前的定位价值。方法分析15例经支气管动脉介入治疗前的的肺癌病例,中央型13例,周围型2例。15例均行螺旋CT增强扫描,后传至工作站利用多平面重组(MPR)、最大密度投影(MIP)和容积再现(VR)等后处理技术观察支气管动脉。结果13例中央型肺癌均由肿瘤性支气管动脉供血,重建图像清晰显示肿瘤性支气管动脉的起点、分支情况及走行特点;其中2例右侧肿瘤性支气管动脉与肋间动脉共干。2例周围型肺癌中有1例由肿瘤性支气管动脉供血,1例找不到明确发自支气管动脉的供血血管。结论多层螺旋CT血管成像能够显示肺癌特别是中央型肺癌的肿瘤性支气管动脉并能为经支气管动脉灌注化疗提供准确定位。     

肺灌注显像在Ⅲ期非小细胞肺癌调强放疗中对功能肺的保护

目的 探讨肺灌注显像在Ⅲ期非小细胞肺癌(NSCLC)调强放疗(IMRT)保护功能肺的可行性。方法 选择拟行放疗的Ⅲ期NSCLC患者24例,分别行PET-CT和SPECT定位,图像传至治疗计划系统进行图像融合。根据SPECT图像确定功能肺(FL)和非功能肺(NFL),FL是指放射性计数为最大放射性计数的30%以上(包括30%)的区域,其他区域为NFL。肺灌注受损分为4级:0级,无灌注受损;1级,肿瘤及其周围局部肺灌注受损;2级,达1叶肺灌注受损;3级,超过1叶肺灌注受损。根据SPECT图像提供的肺功能信息制定IMRT计划进行优化,尽可能降低FL的照射体积剂量。采用配对t检验统计分析优化前后的IMRT计划的肺组织剂量参数变化。结果 患者均有不同程度的肺灌注缺损,其中肺灌注受损1级8例,2级6例,3级10例。根据SPECT提供的肺功能信息优化IMRT计划后WLV和FLV均有不同程度降低,而FLV降低程度更加明显。优化后WLV₁₀、WLV₁₅、WLV₂₀、WLV₂₅、WLV₃₀和FLV₁₀、FLV₁₅、FLV₂₀、FLV₂₅、FLV₃₀差异有统计学意义。结论 根据SPECT图像提供的肺功能信息优化IMRT计划以保护Ⅲ期NSCLC功能肺是可行的。
