MR动态增强扫描在前列腺癌诊断及鉴别诊断中的应用价值(英文)

目的通过绘制时间信号强度曲线,探讨 MRI 快速序列动态增强在前列腺癌诊断及鉴别诊断中的价值。方法对5例无泌尿系症状健康对照者、13例经病理证实的前列腺癌及36例前列腺增生行 MR 平扫、动态增强及延迟扫描,测量并计算病灶和正常组织的相对信号强度值,并绘制正常周围带、前列腺癌与增生三者的时间信号强度曲线。结果正常周围带轻度强化,并缓慢上升至晚期达峰值;36例前列腺增生早期明显强化并逐渐上升至中晚期达峰值后缓慢下降;13例前列腺癌中9例早期明显强化,并快速下降,4例 T_2WI 像上弥漫性病灶呈现中晚期强化。结论正常周围带、前列腺癌及前列腺增生的动态强化方式明显不同,应用动态增强扫描可对前列腺癌的诊断与鉴别诊断起积极作用。

Prostatic Cancer:Diagnosis and Differentiation by Dynamic Contrast-Enhanced MRI

Objective:To assess the role of dynamic contrast-enhanced MRI (DCE-MRI) in the diagnosis and differentiation of prostatic cancer (PC).Methods:Five volunteers,36 patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) and 13 patients with biopsy-proven prostate cancer underwent conventional MRI,DCE- MRI and delayed enhancement MRI.The value of the signal intensity in DCE-MRI was measured and calculated to draw the time-signal intensity curve of the normal peripheral zone (PZ),the prostate cancer and the benign prostatic hyperplasia.Results:In DCE-MRI,the normal peripheral zone was enhanced mildly and slowly and the peak value was located in late phase.The enhancement of the lesions in 36 patients with the benign prostatic hyperplasia was obvious in early phase and strengthened gradually,and then turned to decrease in late phase after peak value.The lesions in 9 of 13 cases with prostate cancer were enhanced obviously in early phase and washed out rapidly,and the peak value was located in early phase,but the peak value was in mediate and late phase in the other 4 cases with diffuse lesion in the prostate on T_2WI.Conclusion:In DCE-MRI,the enhancement patterns of the normal peripheral zone, the prostate cancer and the benign prostatic hyperplasia were significantly different.DCE-MRI was very useful in the diagnosis and differentiation of prostate cancer.
