Methods: a total of 140 patients with pancreatic cystic lesions treated in our hospital were selected as the research objects. They were tested by nuclear magnetic resonance (MRI) and multi-slice spiral CT (MSCT). The differences of the test results between the two groups were compared. Results: according to the comparative analysis of data, 12 cases of pancreatic pseudocyst, 3 cases of pancreatic true cyst, 5 cases of serous cyst, 5 cases of mucinous cyst, 8 cases of solid pseudopapillary tumor and 6 cases of intraductal papillary myxoma were detected by MSCT in the MRI group. 11 cases of pancreatic pseudocyst, 3 cases of pancreatic true cyst, 5 cases of serous cyst, 5 cases of mucinous cyst, 7 cases of solid pseudopapillary tumor were detected by MRI in the MSCT group. There were 6 cases of intraductal papillary myxoma. There was no significant difference between MSCT and MRI (P > 0.05). Conclusion: at present, the diagnosis of pancreatic cystic lesions can be diagnosed by MRI and multi-slice spiral CT, which has popularization and research value.展开更多

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.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

It is generally acute onset, complicated and is often misdiagnosed; therefore is a macro vascular disease that poses major threat on patients’ lives. Timely diagnosis and management are essential, so we investigated the diagnostic value of multi-slice spiral CT in aortic dissection. Methods clinical data from 21 patients with confirmed aortic dissection were retrospectively analyzed. All patients had undergone plain and contrasted multi-slice spiral CT scans. Results true lumen and pseudo cavity were clearly revealed in all 21 patients, of which 17 showed intimal flap, four showed intimal calcification and inward displacement, while 2 had thrombosis in the pseudo cavity. As for classification among these 21 patients, 9 had type Ⅰ aortic dissection, including two patients with innominate artery involvement, 1 with celiac trunk involvement and 2 with left renal artery involvement; 2 had type Ⅱ aortic dissection, including 1 patient with innominate artery involvement; Another ten patients had type III aortic dissection, including 2 patients with left subclavian artery involvement and 1 with celiac trunk involvement. Nineteen out of 21 patients had clearly revealed initial rupture. Conclusion multi-slice spiral CT is characterized by rapidness, non-invasiveness and accuracy. It provides clear visualization of the location and scope of aortic dissection, location of the rupture as well as the valves, which makes it a first-choice imaging approach for the diagnosis of aortic dissection.展开更多
