Methods: Eighteen patients with central lungcancer underwent MSCT with real time helical thin-slice CT scanning. Three-dimensional bronchialartery reconstruction was done at the console work-station. The space anatomical characters ofbronchial artery were observed through different rotations. Results: For 6 cases, thethree-dimensional images of bronchial artery (33.33%) could exactly show the origins, the routes(lung inner segment and mediatism segment) and the diameters of bronchial arteries. Vision rate ofbronchial arteries was the highest in pulmonary artery stricture and truncation groups, and thevessels' diameter became larger apparently. These characters demonstrated blood supply of this kindof central lung cancer come from bronchial artery. Volume rendering images were the best ones amongthree-dimensional images. Conclusion: Three-dimensional imaging with MSCT in bronchial artery canreveal the anatomical characters of bronchial artery and provide theoretical evidence on bloodsupply and intervention therapy of central lung cancer.展开更多

In view of the critical shortage of organs, the indications for living-related liver transplantation (LRLT) have broadened since experience with the procedure has been achieved. This study was undertaken to assess the value of multi-slice spiral CT (MSCT) angiography in evaluating the hepatic arterial and veinous anatomy of potential donors for LRLT. METHODS: MSCT was performed after intravenous injection of contrast material at 3 ml/s. The total dose was calculated as 2 ml/kg. Twenty LRLT donors (2 men and 18 women) were subjected to MSCT angiography of hepatic blood vessels. These were generated by volume rendering and maximum intensity projection, while curved planar reformation was added in 5 patients. RESULTS: We identified 10 important hepatic vascular variants in 9 of the 20 donors (4 arterial, 4 venous, and 2 portal venous variants). In hepatic arterial variants, two had a replaced right hepatic artery arising from the superior mesenteric artery, an accessory right hepatic artery from the superior mesenteric artery and a replaced left hepatic artery arising from the left gastric artery. In hepatic venous variants, three had an accessory inferior right hepatic vein and one had two accessory inferior right hepatic veins. In hepatic portal venous variants, two had trifurcation of the main portal vein. CONCLUSIONS: As a non-invasive and reliable method, MSCT angiography is of value in the clinical evaluation of LRLT donors. MSCT angiography should be recommended as a routine preoperative examination for potential LRLT donors.展开更多

Experimental rat models, especially those of induced liver cancer, are often used in studies of hemodynamic changes in liver cancer. Carcinogenesis in rats has a similar pathological progression and characteristics resembling those in human liver cancer; as a result, rat models are often used as ideal animal models in the study of human liver cancer. However, liver perfusion imaging in rats is difficult to perform, because rats＇ livers are so small that different concentrations, flow rates, and dose of contrast agents during the CT perfusion scanning can influence the quality of liver perfusion images in rats. The purpose of this study, therefore, was to investigate the optimal scan protocol for the imaging of hepatic perfusion using a deconvolution mathematical method in rats by comparing the results of rats in different injection conditions of the contrast agent, including concentration, rate and time. Methods Plain CT scan conditions in eighty 2-month-old male Wistar rats were 5.0 mm slice thickness, 5.0 mm interval, 1.0 pitch, 120 kV tube voltage, 60 mA tube current, 512x512 matrix, and FOV 9.6 cm. Perfusion scanning was carried out with different concentrations of diatrizoate （19%, 38%, 57%, and 76%）, different injection rates （0.3 and 0.5 ml/s）, and different injection times （1, 2-3, 4-5, and 6 seconds）. The above conditions were randomly matched and adjusted to determine the best perfusion scan protocol. Three-phase contrast-enhanced scanning was performed after CT perfusion. Histological examination of the liver tissues with hematoxylin and eosin stains was done after CT scanning. Results When the concentration of the contrast agent was 19% or 38%, no pseudo-color map was created. The viscosity increased when the concentration of the contrast agent was 76%; so it is difficult to inject the contrast agent at such a high concentration. Also no pseudo-color map was generated when the injection time was short （1, 2-3, and 4-5 seconds） or the injection rate was low （0.3 ml/s）. The best perfusion images and perfusion parameters were obtained during 50 seconds scanning. Each rat was given an injection of 57% diatrizoate at 0.5 mils via the tail vein using a high-pressure syringe for 6 seconds. The perfusion parameters included hepatic blood flow （HBF）, hepatic blood volume （HBV）, mean transit time （MTT） of the contrast agent, capillary permeability-surface area product （PS）, hepatic arterial index （HAl）, hepatic artery perfusion （HAP）, and hepatic portal perfusion （HPP）. All these parameters reflected the perfusion status of liver parenchyma in normal rats. Three phases of enhancement were modified according to the time-density curves （TDCs） of the perfusion imaging： hepatic arterial phase （7 seconds）, hepatic portal venous phase （15 seconds）, and a delayed phase （23-31 seconds）. On examination by microscopy, the liver tissues were pathologically normal. Conclusions The appropriate protocol with multi-slice spiral CT liver perfusion reflected normal liver hemodynamics in rats. This study laid a solid foundation for further investigation of the physiological characteristics of liver cancer in a rat model, and was an important supplement to and reference for conventional contrast-enhanced CT scans.展开更多

The diagnoses were made by three radiologists em- ploying a 5-point rating scale, with postoperative pathologic results as the gold standard. Receiver operating characteristic （ROC） curve analysis was performed to evaluate the diag- nostic value of the three MSCT combination modes （arterial phase＋portal-venous phase, arterial phase＋delayed phase, arterial phase＋portal-venous phase＋delayed phase） and AFP levels for sHCC on the background of liver cirrhosis. RESULTS： The area under ROC curve （AUC）, sensitivity, and specificity of the combination of arterial phase＋portal- venous phase＋delayed phase were 0.93, 93%, and 82%, respectively. The average AUC of the arterial phase＋portal- venous phase＋delayed phase combination was significantly greater than that of the arterial phase＋portal-venous phase （AUC=0.84, P=0.01） and arterial phase＋delayed phase （AUC=0.85, P=0.03）. Arterial phase＋portal-venous phase had a smaller AUC （0.84） than arterial phase＋delayed phase （0.85）, but the difference was insignificant （P=0.15）. After combining MSCT enhancement scan with AFP, the AUC, sensitivity, and specificity were 0.95, 94%, and 83%, respectively, indicating a greatly increased diagnostic efficiency for sHCC. CONCLUSIONS： The combination of AFP and 3 phases MSCT enhancement scan could increase the diagnostic efficiency for sHCC on the background of liver cirrhosis. The application of ROC curve analysis has provided a new method and reference in HCC diagnosis.展开更多

Methods: from January 2020 to November 2021, 40 patients of suspected early lung cancer, all received 64 spiral CT scan and pathological examination, referring to the diagnostic value of 64 layers of spiral CT, and the characteristics of 64 spiral CT imaging and CT of early lung cancer cases with CT perfusion parameters. Results: the pathological examination results of 40 patients suspected early lung cancer were 30 malignant, 10 benign, 64 spiral CT showed malignant, 11 benign, 64 layers of spiral CT was 97.50%, 96.67%, specificity was 100.00%;64 spiral CT confirmed malignant cases, deep segmentation, fine spur, spike, the detection rate of vascular tract collection and vacuolar signs was higher than that in benign cases. Blood flow, permeability, blood volume, and mean passage time CT perfusion parameters were higher than benign cases, and the difference was all statistically significant (P <0.05). Conclusion: the 64-layer spiral CT imaging features, fine burr features and spike features are common in the initial diagnosis of early lung cancer patients, and the blood flow, permeability and blood volume are at high levels, which can provide a practical basis for the differentiation between disease diagnosis and benign and malignant.展开更多

文摘BACKGROUND: During the past years, the number of liver transplantation has increased greatly, but the number of available organs has not increased. In view of the critical shortage of organs, the indications for living-related liver transplantation (LRLT) have broadened since experience with the procedure has been achieved. This study was undertaken to assess the value of multi-slice spiral CT (MSCT) angiography in evaluating the hepatic arterial and veinous anatomy of potential donors for LRLT. METHODS: MSCT was performed after intravenous injection of contrast material at 3 ml/s. The total dose was calculated as 2 ml/kg. Twenty LRLT donors (2 men and 18 women) were subjected to MSCT angiography of hepatic blood vessels. These were generated by volume rendering and maximum intensity projection, while curved planar reformation was added in 5 patients. RESULTS: We identified 10 important hepatic vascular variants in 9 of the 20 donors (4 arterial, 4 venous, and 2 portal venous variants). In hepatic arterial variants, two had a replaced right hepatic artery arising from the superior mesenteric artery, an accessory right hepatic artery from the superior mesenteric artery and a replaced left hepatic artery arising from the left gastric artery. In hepatic venous variants, three had an accessory inferior right hepatic vein and one had two accessory inferior right hepatic veins. In hepatic portal venous variants, two had trifurcation of the main portal vein. CONCLUSIONS: As a non-invasive and reliable method, MSCT angiography is of value in the clinical evaluation of LRLT donors. MSCT angiography should be recommended as a routine preoperative examination for potential LRLT donors.

Methods: 38 patients with pulmonary masses proved by pathology including 25 cases of peripheral lung cancer and 13 cases of benign masses were studied prospectively with GE Lightspeed Qx/I plus 16-slice helical CT perfusion imaging, and 25 patients with lung cancer were comparative studied with its MVD calculated using LSAB. With the CT perfusion 2-body tumor software, the parameters of CT perfusion including blood value (BV), blood flow (BF), mean transit time (MTT) and permeability surface (PS) were analyzed. Results: The four param- eter values in lung cancer were all higher than that in pulmonary benign masses, and there were significant differences among BV, MTT and PS (P<0.05), especially in BV (P<0.01). The MVD value of lung cancer was higher than that of pulmonary benign masses (P<0.05), and the MVD of adenocarcinoma was higher than that of squamous cell carcinoma (P<0.05). In 25 cases with lung cancer, there was positive correlation only between BV and MVD value (r=0.852, P<0.01). Conclusion: It is helpful to diagnose the peripheral lung cancer with MSCT perfusion imaging and to differentiate from pulmonary benign masses, its bases are MVD pathologically.

文摘Background Multi-slice CT liver perfusion has been widely used in experimental studies of hemodynamic changes in liver lesions, and is usually performed as an adjunct to a conventional CT examination because of its high temporal and spatial resolution, simple protocol, good reproducibility, and ability to measure hemodynamic changes of liver tissues at the capillary level. Experimental rat models, especially those of induced liver cancer, are often used in studies of hemodynamic changes in liver cancer. Carcinogenesis in rats has a similar pathological progression and characteristics resembling those in human liver cancer; as a result, rat models are often used as ideal animal models in the study of human liver cancer. However, liver perfusion imaging in rats is difficult to perform, because rats＇ livers are so small that different concentrations, flow rates, and dose of contrast agents during the CT perfusion scanning can influence the quality of liver perfusion images in rats. The purpose of this study, therefore, was to investigate the optimal scan protocol for the imaging of hepatic perfusion using a deconvolution mathematical method in rats by comparing the results of rats in different injection conditions of the contrast agent, including concentration, rate and time. Methods Plain CT scan conditions in eighty 2-month-old male Wistar rats were 5.0 mm slice thickness, 5.0 mm interval, 1.0 pitch, 120 kV tube voltage, 60 mA tube current, 512x512 matrix, and FOV 9.6 cm. Perfusion scanning was carried out with different concentrations of diatrizoate （19%, 38%, 57%, and 76%）, different injection rates （0.3 and 0.5 ml/s）, and different injection times （1, 2-3, 4-5, and 6 seconds）. The above conditions were randomly matched and adjusted to determine the best perfusion scan protocol. Three-phase contrast-enhanced scanning was performed after CT perfusion. Histological examination of the liver tissues with hematoxylin and eosin stains was done after CT scanning. Results When the concentration of the contrast agent was 19% or 38%, no pseudo-color map was created. The viscosity increased when the concentration of the contrast agent was 76%; so it is difficult to inject the contrast agent at such a high concentration. Also no pseudo-color map was generated when the injection time was short （1, 2-3, and 4-5 seconds） or the injection rate was low （0.3 ml/s）. The best perfusion images and perfusion parameters were obtained during 50 seconds scanning. Each rat was given an injection of 57% diatrizoate at 0.5 mils via the tail vein using a high-pressure syringe for 6 seconds. The perfusion parameters included hepatic blood flow （HBF）, hepatic blood volume （HBV）, mean transit time （MTT） of the contrast agent, capillary permeability-surface area product （PS）, hepatic arterial index （HAl）, hepatic artery perfusion （HAP）, and hepatic portal perfusion （HPP）. All these parameters reflected the perfusion status of liver parenchyma in normal rats. Three phases of enhancement were modified according to the time-density curves （TDCs） of the perfusion imaging： hepatic arterial phase （7 seconds）, hepatic portal venous phase （15 seconds）, and a delayed phase （23-31 seconds）. On examination by microscopy, the liver tissues were pathologically normal. Conclusions The appropriate protocol with multi-slice spiral CT liver perfusion reflected normal liver hemodynamics in rats. This study laid a solid foundation for further investigation of the physiological characteristics of liver cancer in a rat model, and was an important supplement to and reference for conventional contrast-enhanced CT scans.

文摘BACKGROUND： The various combination of multiphase enhancement multislice spiral CT （MSCT） makes the diagno- sis of a small hepatocellular carcinoma （sHCC） on the back- ground of liver cirrhosis possible. This study was to explore whether the combination of MSCT enhancement scan and alpha-fetoprotein （AFP） level ficiency for sHCC. could increase the diagnostic ef- METHODS： This study included 35 sHCC patients and 52 cir- rhotic patients without image evidence of HCC as a control group. The diagnoses were made by three radiologists em- ploying a 5-point rating scale, with postoperative pathologic results as the gold standard. Receiver operating characteristic （ROC） curve analysis was performed to evaluate the diag- nostic value of the three MSCT combination modes （arterial phase＋portal-venous phase, arterial phase＋delayed phase, arterial phase＋portal-venous phase＋delayed phase） and AFP levels for sHCC on the background of liver cirrhosis. RESULTS： The area under ROC curve （AUC）, sensitivity, and specificity of the combination of arterial phase＋portal- venous phase＋delayed phase were 0.93, 93%, and 82%, respectively. The average AUC of the arterial phase＋portal- venous phase＋delayed phase combination was significantly greater than that of the arterial phase＋portal-venous phase （AUC=0.84, P=0.01） and arterial phase＋delayed phase （AUC=0.85, P=0.03）. Arterial phase＋portal-venous phase had a smaller AUC （0.84） than arterial phase＋delayed phase （0.85）, but the difference was insignificant （P=0.15）. After combining MSCT enhancement scan with AFP, the AUC, sensitivity, and specificity were 0.95, 94%, and 83%, respectively, indicating a greatly increased diagnostic efficiency for sHCC. CONCLUSIONS： The combination of AFP and 3 phases MSCT enhancement scan could increase the diagnostic efficiency for sHCC on the background of liver cirrhosis. The application of ROC curve analysis has provided a new method and reference in HCC diagnosis.
文摘Objective: to study the characteristics and application of spiral CT in early lung cancer. Methods: from January 2020 to November 2021, 40 patients of suspected early lung cancer, all received 64 spiral CT scan and pathological examination, referring to the diagnostic value of 64 layers of spiral CT, and the characteristics of 64 spiral CT imaging and CT of early lung cancer cases with CT perfusion parameters. Results: the pathological examination results of 40 patients suspected early lung cancer were 30 malignant, 10 benign, 64 spiral CT showed malignant, 11 benign, 64 layers of spiral CT was 97.50%, 96.67%, specificity was 100.00%;64 spiral CT confirmed malignant cases, deep segmentation, fine spur, spike, the detection rate of vascular tract collection and vacuolar signs was higher than that in benign cases. Blood flow, permeability, blood volume, and mean passage time CT perfusion parameters were higher than benign cases, and the difference was all statistically significant (P <0.05). Conclusion: the 64-layer spiral CT imaging features, fine burr features and spike features are common in the initial diagnosis of early lung cancer patients, and the blood flow, permeability and blood volume are at high levels, which can provide a practical basis for the differentiation between disease diagnosis and benign and malignant.
