三维动态增强MR血管造影对颅内动脉瘤的诊断价值

目的 评价三维动态增强磁共振血管造影(3D DCE-MRA)在颅内动脉瘤诊断中的价值。方法 对54例高度怀疑有颅内动脉瘤的病人行3D DCE-MRA检查，随后行DSA造影及可行的血管内栓塞治疗。3D DCE-MRA用超快速三维梯度回波序列(3D FISP)(钆喷替酸葡甲胺0．2mmol／kg,1次扫描时间10s)，工作站上三维重建，比较3D DCE-MRA及常规DSA在显示动脉瘤、瘤颈及与载瘤动脉关系上的优劣，及对血管内栓塞治疗的价值。结果 39例脑动脉瘤患者共45个动脉瘤，3D DCE-MRA对动脉瘤的敏感度为96％，特异度73％，准确度90％。3D DCE-MRA对动脉瘤细节及瘤颈的显示明显优于常规DSA，尤其是颈内动脉海绵窦部及椎动脉近小脑后下动脉的动脉瘤，可指导DSA显示动脉瘤方向及预先制定治疗方案。但对周边部及动脉分岔处小动脉瘤的诊断应谨慎。结论3D DCE-MRA能无创有效地诊断颅内动脉瘤，所提供的三维信息对治疗方案的制定具有极大帮助。当诊断有怀疑时，应结合DSA检查。

The diagnostic value of three-dimensional dynamic contrast-enhanced MR angiography for intracranial aneurysms

Objective To assess the clinical value of three dimensional dynamic contrast enhanced MR angiography (3D DCE MRA) in the detection for intracranial aneurysm. Methods 3D DCE MRA was performed in 54 patients highly suspected with intracranial aneurysms. Then conventional digital subtraction angiography (DSA) and feasible endovascular treatment were performed simultaneously. A three dimensional fast imaging with steady state precession (3D FISP) was used for 3D DCE MRA(Gd DTPA dose, 0.2 mmol per kilogram for body weight; acquisition time, 10 seconds). The source images were subtracted from mask images and transferred to computer workstation. All images were subsequently post processed using three dimensional reconstruction. 3D DCE MRA images and DSA images were compared for demonstration of the aneurysm, its neck, and relationship with parent artery, and the usefulness for endovascular treatment was evaluated. Results There were 39 cases with 45 intracranial aneurysms. The sensitivity, specificity, and accuracy of 3D DCE MRA were 96%, 73%, and 90%, respectively. Aneurysm and its neck depiction at 3D DCE MRA was significantly better than that at DSA, especially for aneurysms adjacent to the cavernous sinus and near the PICA of vertebral artery. 3D DCE MRA could guide neurosurgeons to the desired DSA projection, and helped them make plan for interventional or surgical treatment in advance. But the diagnosis should be very carefully made for small aneurysms located in the periphery and the arterial bifurcation. Conclusion 3D DCE MRA is a fast, noninvasive and efficient technique for diagnosing intracranial aneurysms. Its three dimensional information is helpful for DSA demonstration and treatment planning. Any uncertain diagnosis requires DSA confirmation.
