摘要:
目的分析64排CT支气管动脉双期扫描技术对肺结节的良、恶性诊断价值。 方法选取2016年9月~2020年9月我院行64排螺旋CT常规扫描发现肺结节(直径在3 cm以下)患者120例,均行支气管动脉双期增强扫描及病变靶扫描,经病理证实为肺恶性结节65例(记为恶性组)、浸润前病变结节(原位癌)30例(记为浸润前病变组)、肺良性结节25例(记为良性组),比较3组CT征象检出率,对比3组支气管动脉形态、图像质量、平扫与增强扫描CT值、双时相增强扫描后强化程度,分析支气管动脉双期增强扫描对肺恶性结节的诊断价值。 结果恶性组深分叶征、毛刺征、棘状突起、血管纠集征、空泡征、胸膜凹陷征占比较高,肺磨玻璃影中血管与支气管分型以Ⅱ、Ⅲ型为主,浸润前病变组钙化、卫星灶占比较高,肺磨玻璃影中血管与支气管分型以Ⅳ型为主,良性组方形征占比较高,肺磨玻璃影中血管与支气管分型以Ⅰ、Ⅱ型为主,差异均有统计学意义(P < 0.05);恶性组支气管动脉形态为血管湖比例高于浸润前病变组、良性组(P < 0.05),3组成团、迂曲、中断比例比较差异无统计学意义(P>0.05);3组图像质量比较差异无统计学意义(P>0.05);3组平扫CT值比较差异无统计学意义(P>0.05),恶性组、良性组增强扫描30~45 s、90~ 120 s的CT值均高于浸润前病变组(P < 0.05),恶性组增强扫描90~120 s的CT值低于良性组(P < 0.05);3组双期增强扫描后强化程度差异有统计学意义(P < 0.05),其中恶性组以中度、明显强化为主,且呈快升快降模式;64排CT支气管动脉双期增强扫描诊断肺结节恶性的敏感度、特异性、准确度分别为84.61%、76.36%、80.83%。 结论64排CT支气管动脉双期扫描对肺结节良恶性有一定诊断价值,依据其CT征象、肺磨玻璃影中血管与支气管分型及支气管形态、强化程度等可作出准确诊断。 Abstract:ObjectiveTo analyze the diagnostic value of dual-phase bronchial artery 64-slice CT for pulmonary nodules. MethodsA total of 120 patients with pulmonary nodules (under 3 cm in diameter) found by 64-slice spiral CT in our hospital between September 2016 and September 2020 were enrolled in the study. All of them were subjected to bronchial artery dualphase enhanced scan and targeted scan of the lesion. Pathology confirmed that there were 65 cases with malignant pulmonary nodules (malignant group), 30 cases with preinvasive nodules (carcinoma in situ) (preinvasive group), and 25 cases with benign pulmonary nodules (benign group). The detection rates of CT signs, bronchial artery morphology, image quality, CT values of plain scan and enhanced scan, and enhancement after dual-phase enhanced scan were compared between the two groups. The diagnostic value of bronchial artery dual-phase enhanced scan for malignant pulmonary nodules was analyzed. ResultsIn the malignant group, the proportions of deep lobulation sign, spicule sign, spiculate protuberance, blood vessel pack sign, vacuole sign, and pleural indentation sign were higher, the blood vessels and bronchi in pulmonary ground glass shadow mainly were type Ⅱ and Ⅲ. In the preinvasive group, the proportions of calcification and satellite lesions were higher, the blood vessels and bronchi in pulmonary ground glass shadow mainly were type Ⅳ. In the benign group, the proportion of square signs was higher, the blood vessels and bronchi in the pulmonary ground glass shadow mainly were type Ⅰ and Ⅱ (P < 0.05). The proportion of vascular lake was higher in the malignant group than in the preinvasive group and the benign group (P < 0.05). There were no statistically significant differences in the proportions of aggregation, tortuosity and interruption, image quality and CT value of plain scan among the 3 groups (P>0.05). The CT values of enhance scan at 30-45 s and 90-120 were higher in the malignant group and the benign group than in the preinvasive group (P < 0.05), and CT values of enhanced scan at 90~120 s were lower in the malignant group than in the benign group (P < 0.05). Statistically significant differences were found in enhancement after dual-phase enhanced scan among the 3 groups (P < 0.05). Besides, moderate and obvious enhancement was the majority in the malignant group, showing a fast-rising and fast-falling pattern. The sensitivity, specificity and accuracy of bronchial artery dual-phase 64-slice CT for diagnosing the malignancy of pulmonary nodules were 84.61%, 76.36%, and 80.83%, respectively. ConclusionThe bronchial artery dual-phase 64-slice CT has certain value in the diagnosis of benign and malignant pulmonary nodules. Accurate diagnosis can be made based on the CT signs, vascular and bronchial types in pulmonary ground glass shadow, bronchial morphology, and the degree of enhancement. -
