摘要
Objective:To study the diagnostic value of T2*-weighted first-pass perfusion imaging in breast tumors.Methods: We analyzed the magnetic resonance imaging(MRI)information along with the pathological and immunohistochemistry re- sults.Magnetic resonance imaging was performed in 28 patients with breast tumor.The time to signal intensity curves were generated according to the T2*-weighted first-pass perfusion imaging.The curve’s maximal signal intensity drop rate and maximal signal intensity decrease time were analyzed and compared with the pathological diagnoses after surgery.Results: Malignant breast lesions showed higher maximal signal intensity drop rate(44.69%±17.07 vs.17.22%±7.49,P<0.001) than benign lesions,but there was no significant difference of maximal signal decrease time between those two lesions(23.94 s±4.92 vs.20.02 s±6.83,P>0.05).Conclusion:The T2*-weighted first-pass perfusion imaging has enough sensitivity and specificity in breast tumor diagnosis.
