Interobserver Agreement for the Diagnosis of Venous Thromboembolism on Computed Tomography Chest Angiography and Indirect Venography of the Lower Extremities in Emergency Department Patients

Objectives: To determine interobserver agreement between radiologists for computed tomography (CT) angiography and venography. CT venography of the lower extremities combined with standard CT angiography of the chest may result in an increased overall diagnosis rate of venous thromboembolism (pulmonary embolism or deep venous thrombosis).
Methods: The study had a retrospective cohort design. The population consisted of emergency department patients who were evaluated for suspected pulmonary embolism. A random sample of 50 patients diagnosed and treated for venous thromboembolism and 50 age- and gender-matched patients whose CT angiograms and venograms were read as negative were enrolled. The original reading (R1) was compared with readings of two study radiologists: R2, a general radiologist, and R3, a radiologist with fellowship training in cross-sectional imaging. All readers were blinded to each other.
Results: Both R2 and R3 found both CT angiogram and venogram components technically adequate in 95% (95% CI = 89% to 98%) and 86% (95% CI = 78% to 92%) of studies, respectively. The agreement was very good for CT angiography (lowest agreement = 92%; lowest κ = 0.83) and was good for CT venography (85%, κ = 0.65). In nine cases, R1 read the CT angiogram as negative but the venogram as positive for DVT, whereas both R2 and R3 read both components as negative in four of these nine, suggesting a false-positive isolated DVT rate of 44% (95% CI = 19% to 73%). In no case did R1 read both scan components as negative when R2 and R3 agreed on presence of pulmonary embolism or DVT.
Conclusions: Diagnosis of pulmonary embolism on CT angiography is more reliable than diagnosis of isolated DVT on CT venography.

Relationship Between Exhaled Carbon Monoxide and Airway Hyperresponsiveness in Asthmatic Patients

The study objectives were to analyze the changes in exhaled carbon monoxide (COex) induced by histamine provocation challenge in asthmatic patients and to evaluate the relationship between COex and airway sensitivity and reactivity. Levels of COex were measured in 105 nonsmoking mildly asthmatic subjects before and after histamine provocation challenge. Dose-response curves were characterized by their sensitivity (PD₂₀) and reactivity. Dose-response slope (DRS), continuous index of responsiveness (CIR), and bronchial reactivity index (BRI) were determined as reactivity indices. Bronchial challenge was positive for 47 subjects and negative for 58. The COex levels rose significantly after bronchial challenge in the positive response group (4.49 ± 0.4 vs. 5.74 ± 0.57 ppm, p = 0.025) and in the negative response group (2.84 ± 0.25 vs 4.00 ± 0.41 ppm, p = 0.000). An inverse relation between basal COex and PD₂₀ was found (r = - 0.318, p = 0.030). In all subjects, a proportional direct relationship between COex and DRS (r = 0.214, p = 0.015), CIR (r = 0.401, p = 0.000), and BRI (r = 0.208, p = 0.012) was observed. On stepwise multiple linear regression analysis, COex only significantly correlated with CIR (multiple r² = 0.174, p = 0.000). In conclusion, exhaled CO determination is a noninvasive inflammatory marker of the respiratory tract, which shows an acceptable association with airway hyperresponsiveness.

脊柱爆裂型骨折的CT扫描价值分析

目的:探讨脊柱爆裂型骨折的CT扫描价值. 资料与方法:随机抽取我院1988年至2001年骨科70例脊柱外伤患者的资料.其中男性54例,女性16例.年龄19岁～73岁,平均49岁.全部患者均摄取普通X线片,然后依据X线片提示的骨折部位作CT扫描,采用估算法重建图像,应用骨窗和软组织窗观察,部分病例进行矢状面重组.结果:70例受检者中受损椎体87个,C5损伤1例,T12～L1损伤1例,L1～2损伤1例,其他均为单椎体损伤.按Denis[1]三柱理论,63例病例为爆裂骨折,累及二柱和二柱以上,7例为椎体单纯压缩型骨折,1例伴有严重的脱位.结论:CT在显示椎体骨折尤其是脊柱后结构损伤方面优于X线平片,对判定脊柱稳定程度及损伤有否手术指征帮助最大.当X线摄片之后考虑为爆裂性骨折时,应抓紧作CT扫描检查.

目的分析Dandy—Walker综合征的临床及cT与MR!影像特征。方法采用cT与MRI常规扫描，对12例Dandy—Walker综合征的临床表现、CT与MRI征象进行回顾性分析；结果12例Dandy—Walker综合征的CT与MRI表现归纳为①小脑蚓部缺失，小脑半球发育不良、完全分离，分离的小脑半球可以不对称；②第四脑室呈囊状、扇形、三角形显著扩张或后颅窝巨大囊状阴影与第四脑室相通；③窦汇异常抬高，越过人字缝／天幕抬高；④幕上脑室对称性扩张，脑积水。结论对Dandy—Walker综合征的诊断，CT扫描能够显示后颅凹及天幕上下脑的形态与结构，其CT表现具特征性；MRI可多平面扫描，无骨质伪影，显示后颅凹优于CT，在矢状面上可显示小脑、第四脑室、导水管、后颅凹囊肿以及与天幕的关系。CT与MRI扫描对Dandy—Walker综合征能够做出定性诊断，是术前诊断的主要依据，检查无痛苦，有重要的诊断和鉴别诊断价值。     

多层螺旋CT肺密度测定对结缔组织病肺问质病变的早期诊断

目的探讨多层螺旋CT(MSCT)肺密度测定对结缔组织病(CTD)肺间质病变(ILL)早期诊断的临床意义。方法对222例CTD患者及50名正常对照者，应用MSCT附带的Pulmo自动评估软件进行上、中、下肺区的密度测定，并同时进行肺高分辨扫描(}-IR(_1、)，分析二者的变化与CTD伴ILL的关系。结果222例cm患者中197例平均肺密度有不同程度的增高，25例平均肺密度正常。157例HRCT有不同程度的肺间质病变，65例HRCT正常。50名正常对照者HRCT均正常，8名平均肺密度有不同程度的增高，42名平均肺密度正常。结论采用MSCT与HRCT对CTD伴ILL的检测结果差异有统计学意义，P=0．000(双侧)，因此MSCT平均肺密度测定对早期诊断CTD伴ILL比HRCT更敏感，更有临床意义。
