Comparative Observation of Different CT Imaging Techniques on Pulmonary Embolism with Qi Deficiency and Blood Stasis Syndrome

Objective: To seek the balance between accurate diagnosis and economic application of pulmonary embolism(PE).Methods: A total of 130 patients with suspected PE of qi stagnation and blood stasis syndrome from January 2018 to December 2020 were selected for retrospective analysis, and then the patient data were screened.84 patients were selected to examine PE patients with suspected qi stagnation and blood stasis syndrome by dual source and dual energy CT imaging, gem energy spectrum CT imaging and low-dose contrast agent bolus injection test CT pulmonary angiography.The subjective and objective evaluation of qi deficiency and blood stasis syndrome and CT pulmonary angiography were carried out to explore the differences of the diagnostic efficacy of three different imaging techniques in PE.Results:(1)Subjective evaluation of dual source dual energy imaging and low-dose contrast agent bolus test imaging.The diagnostic efficacy of CT pulmonary angiography in PE was similar between the two groups.Among the images obtained by dual source dual energy imaging, 85% of the image quality of CT pulmonary angiography was rated excellent(n=5) or good(n=4) by physician 1 and physician 2 respectively.Among the images obtained by low-dose contrast agent bolus injection test imaging, 88.9% of the image quality of CT pulmonary angiography was rated excellent(n=5) or good(n=4) by physician 1 and physician 2 respectively.In terms of overall image quality, no statistically significant difference was found between dual source dual energy imaging and low-dose contrast agent bolus test imaging.(2)Subjective evaluation of gem energy spectrum imaging and low-dose contrast agent mass injection test imaging.The diagnostic efficacy of CT pulmonary angiography in PE was similar between the two groups.Among the images obtained by gem energy spectrum imaging, 91.7% of the image quality of CT pulmonary angiography was rated excellent(n=5) or good(n=4) by doctor 3 and doctor 4 respectively.95.4% and 95.5% of the images obtained by low-dose contrast bolus injection test imaging were rated excellent(n=5) or good(n=4) by physician 3 and physician 4 respectively.In terms of overall image quality, no statistically significant difference was found between gem energy spectrum imaging and low-dose contrast agent bolus test imaging.(3)Objective evaluation of image quality of three different CT pulmonary angiography techniques.Although the mean value of CT and CNR in pulmonary artery obtained by low-dose contrast agent bolus injection test imaging are higher than that of dual source dual energy imaging/gem energy spectrum imaging, the difference between the two imaging methods is not statistically significant.The difference of CT value and CNR in ascending aorta obtained by the two imaging methods was statistically significant.Conclusion: In the rapid screening of suspected PE patients, the CT pulmonary angiography images obtained by low-dose contrast agent bolus test imaging can fully meet the clinical diagnosis and treatment needs.It can be used as the preferred method for clinical screening of PE.When necessary, multi parameter imaging can be added to obtain more data to assist the diagnosis.It is the optimal solution to realize the balance between accurate diagnosis and economic and practical diagnosis of PE.
