摘要:

目的 探讨双层探测器光谱 CT(DLSCT)在评估直肠腺癌淋巴结转移中的价值。方法 瞻性分析 78 例术前接受 DLSCT 平扫及双期增强扫描的直肠腺癌患者资料,根据术后病理结果将 108 枚淋 巴结分为转移组(n = 52)及非转移组(n = 56)。两名影像医生在不知病理结果的情况下独立测量淋巴结短径(SD),评估其边缘、形状及强化均匀度,测量平扫期有效原子序数(Eff⁃Z),动脉期(AP)及静脉期 VP)的碘浓度(IC),计算双期增强标准化碘浓度(NIC)值。采用两独立样本 Mann⁃Whitney 检验及 χ2 检验 比较两组间形态学指标及光谱 CT 参数的差异,应用受试者工作特征曲线(ROC)分析各指标的诊断效能。 结果 转移组与非转移组间的淋巴结 SD、边缘,形状及强化均匀度均差异有统计学意义(P < 0.05);转移 组的 NICAP NICVP均显著高于非转移组(P < 0.05),而 Eff⁃Z 值在两组间差异无统计学意义(P > 0.05)。淋 巴结的 SD、边缘、形状、强化均匀度,NICAP NICVP在评估转移淋巴结的曲线下面积(AUC)分别为 0.810 0.648、0.630、0.637、0.806 0.722;将 AUC 值相对较高的 3 个参数(NICAP,NICVP SD)联合评估淋巴结转 移,AUC 值最大,达 0.911,敏感度 80.77%,特异度 85.71%。结论 DLSCT 标准化碘浓度值有助于提高直肠 腺癌淋巴结转移的诊断准确性,光谱CT 多参数联合SD 可提高诊断效能。

Abstract:

Objective To evaluate the diagnostic value of multiple parameters derived from Dual ⁃Layer Detector Spectral CT(DLSCT)in evaluating lymphatic metastasis(LM)in patients with rectal adenocarcinoma. Methods The data of 78 patients with rectal adenocarcinoma who underwent plain and dual⁃phase contrast⁃ enhanced scans by DLSCT before surgery were analyzed. According to the pathological findings,a total of 108 lymph nodes were enrolled and assigned to lymphatic metastasis(LM)group(n = 52)and non⁃lymphatic metastasis (NLM)group(n = 56). The short diameter(SD),effective atomic number(Eff⁃Z)from plain scan,iodine con⁃ centration(IC)from arterial phase(AP),and venous phase(VP)were measured independently by two radiologists. The border,shape and enhancement homogeneity of each lymph node were evaluated. The normalized iodine con⁃ centration(NIC)in AP and VP were calculated. The differences of SD,border,shape,enhancement homogeneity Eff⁃Z,NICAP,and NICVP were compared between the two groups by two independent samples Mann⁃Whitney test or Chi ⁃ square test. The diagnostic efficiencies were analyzed by receiver operating characteristic curves(ROC). Results There were statistical differences in SD,border,shape,enhancement homogeneity,NICAP,and NICVP between LM and NLM group(all P ≤ 0.001. However,there was no significant difference in Eff⁃Z between the two groups(P > 0.05). The areas under the curve(AUC)of SD,border,shape,enhancement homogeneity,NICAP and NICVP to assess LM were 0.810,0.648,0.630,0.637,0.806,and 0.722,respectively(all P ≤ 0.05. The combination of the SD,NICAP and NICVP had the highest AUC value of 0.911,sensitivity of 80.77%,and speci⁃ ficity of 85.71%. Conclusion The NIC derived from DLSCT could significantly improve the diagnostic accuracy of LM of rectal adenocarcinoma. DLSCT parameters combined with SD are helpful to improve the diagnostic efficiency.
