INTRODUCTION:To explore the feasibility of applying computed tomography perfusion (CTP) imaging-guided mechanical thrombectomy in acute ischemic stroke patients with large vessel occlusion beyond the therapeutic time window.METHODS:The clinical data of acute cerebral infarction patients with large vessel occlusion who were beyond the therapeutic time window and admitted to Handan Central Hospital from January 2021 to March 2022 were retrospectively analyzed. All patients were assessed by the National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) and were examined by one-stop CTP imaging. The preoperative onset time of the disease was more than 6 h. Fourteen patients underwent magnetic resonance imaging examination at the same time. Fifty-four patients were retrospectively divided into two groups based on the treatment methods: the mechanical thrombectomy group had 21 patients and the conservative treatment group had 33 patients. NIHSS scoring and computed tomography scan were performed before treatment, 6 h, 24 h, 7 days, and 30 days after treatment.RESULTS:The NIHSS scores of the patients with acute cerebral large vessel occlusion who underwent CTP imaging-guided mechanical thrombectomy at 6 h, 24 h, 7 days, and 30 days after treatment were compared with those of the conventional treatment group. The NIHSS score of the mechanical thrombectomy group was significantly better, and the difference was statistically significant (P < 0.05). In terms of the prognosis rate and expansion rate of infarct core volume, the patients of the mechanical thrombectomy group had a better prognosis, and the difference was statistically significant (P < 0.05). Artificial intelligence-assisted CTP diagnosis can facilitate the automatic evaluation of diseases and enable quick judgments that are independent of radiologists' evaluation, but it may pose a problem in the determination of infarct core volume (either being too high or too low).CONCLUSION:It is of great significance to apply CTP imaging in guiding the mechanical thrombectomy procedure in acute stroke patients with large vessel occlusion who are beyond the therapeutic time window.
目的 探讨CT双能量成像在肝细胞癌TACE术后疗效评估中的应用价值.方法 选取TACE术后4~6周复查的41例HCC患者,所有患者均行DSA及CT双能量肝脏增强扫描.从碘化油形态和伪影对常规混合能量和40~70 keV单能量的图像质量进行主观评分.以DSA检查结果为参照,统计不同图像有强化和无强化病变的数目,计算其灵敏度、特异度、准确率、阳性预测值及阴性预测值.测量有血供区和坏死区AP、PP NIC及能谱曲线斜率,对各参数进行统计学分析.结果 70 keV单能量图像质量最优,40 keV单能量图像对病变的显示能力最强.有血供区的能谱曲线走行较坏死区的陡直,两组间的AP、PP NIC及能谱曲线斜率差异均有统计学意义(P<0.05).ROC曲线显示双能量CT定量参数在区分TACE术后有血供区和坏死区的比较均具有较高的诊断效能(AUC>0.7).结论 CT双能量成像有助于诊断肝细胞癌TACE术后疗效,对后续的随访具有重要意义.
目的 探讨动态增强磁共振成像(DCE-MRI)及弥散加权成像(DWI)在乳腺肿瘤良恶性诊断及乳腺癌化疗效果评估中的应用价值.方法 收集2020年3月至2022年3月我院就诊的78例乳腺肿瘤患者,以病理检查结果为金标准,使用Kappa一致性检验评价DCE-MRI与DWI联合鉴别良恶性乳腺肿瘤的诊断效能;对穿刺活检确诊的乳腺癌患者行新辅助化疗(NAC),根据Miller分级将所有患者分为组织学显著反应(MHR)组和组织学非显著反应组(NMHR)组,比较两组化疗前后DCE-MRI定量参数和表观弥散系数(ADC)值变化.结果 78例乳腺肿瘤患者中,乳腺癌56例(51.25%),良性病变22例(48.75%);恶性肿瘤组ADC值显著低于良性肿瘤组(P<0.05);ROC曲线分析结果显示,ADC值鉴别乳腺肿瘤良恶性的最佳临界值为1.20×10-3mm2/s;DCE-MRI的时间信号强度曲线(TIC)和DWI的ADC值联合诊断良恶性乳腺肿瘤与病理一致性较好(Kappa值=0.805).NAC前后MHR组和NMHR组容量转移常数(Ktrans)、速率常数(Kep)和ADC变化率比较均有显著差异(P<0.05);DCE-MRI 联合 DWI 评估 NAC 效果的 AUC 为 0.845(95%CI:0.766~0.905),分别大于ΔADC、AKtrans单独评估的AUC(P<0.05).结论 联合DCE-MRI和DWI的TIC、ADC联合诊断良恶性乳腺肿瘤效能高,而联合Ktrans和ADC变化率能较好地预测NAC疗效.

探讨鼻部复发性多形性腺瘤的临床病理特点、影像学表现及鉴别诊断.回顾性分析1例鼻部复发性多形性腺瘤的病例资料,结合相关文献进行学习.患者表现为鼻塞及左眼溢泪,副鼻窦MRI表现为左侧鼻腔内软组织肿块,其内信号混杂,边缘清,鼻腔肿物切除术后病理诊断为多形性腺瘤.术后随访4年,因视物模糊、鼻出血再次入院,CT表现为边界清、密度均匀的软组织肿块,MRI示肿块内部信号不均匀,增强扫描明显不均匀强化,术后病理诊断为多形性腺瘤复发.多形性腺瘤在术后易复发,因此术前通过影像学检查准确诊断该疾病,可以提醒术者选择合理的手术方式,扩大肿块切除范围,降低术后复发率.
Background: This study was to investigate the prevalence of preoperative rim enhancement, and its association with clinicopathological features, relapse, and survival profiles in Chinese basal-like breast cancer (BC) patients. Materials and Methods: The preoperative breast magnetic resonance imaging images of 145 basal-like BC patients who underwent surgical excision were obtained to determine rim enhancement. Besides, based on disease status and survival status during follow-up, the 1-year relapse rate/mortality, 3-year relapse rate/mortality, 5-year relapse rate/mortality were calculated; disease-free survival (DFS) and overall survival (OS) were determined. Results: There were 51 (35.2%) patients with rim enhancement and 94 (64.8%) patients without rim enhancement. Furthermore, rim enhancement was associated with larger tumor size and advanced T stage, whereas it did not associate with age, pathological differentiation, N stage, or TNM stage. In addition, rim enhancement was associated with higher 1-, 3-, and 5-year relapse rate and shorter DFS; meanwhile, rim enhancement was associated with increased 1-, 3-, and 5-year mortality rate and decreased OS. By multivariate Cox's regression analyses, rim enhancement, pathological differentiation, and N stage independently predicted reduced DFS; T stage independently predicted declined OS. Conclusion: Preoperative rim enhancement on MRI might be a possible noninvasive indicator for guiding personalized treatment strategies and improving prognosis in Chinese basal-like BC patients.

Objective: To investigate the role of whole-brain volume computed tomography (CT) perfusion in assessing early ischemic cerebrovascular diseases. Materials and Methods: Seventy-two patients with early ischemic cerebrovascular diseases who had undergone routine CT scan and 320-row volume CT whole-brain perfusion imaging within 8 h after admission were retrospectively enrolled in this one-center case-sectional study. The perfusion parameters of cerebral blood flow (CBF), cerebral blood volume (CBV), mean transit time (MTT), time to peak (TTP), and dynamic CT angiogram (4D-CTA) were obtained and analyzed. Results: Among 72 patients, 29 cases with 37 cerebral ischemic lesions were found in plain CT scan, whereas 51 cases with 76 lesions were found in whole-brain CT perfusion, with 30.6% more patients being detected. The CBF value was significantly lower in the abnormal than normal corresponding perfusion area in the healthy hemisphere (P<0.05), while the MTT and TTP values were significantly higher in the abnormal than the normal corresponding area (P<0.05). 4D-CTA image suggested that 59 cases had different degrees of stenosis or occlusion, including 11 mild, 18 moderate, 21 severe, and 9 occlusive cases. Four-D-CTA imaging could detect significantly (P<0.05) more patients with abnormal perfusion in severe cerebral vascular stenosis or occlusion than those with no, mild or moderate stenosis (93.33% vs. 16.67%) (P<0.05). The stenosis of intracranial and carotid arteries was positively correlated with MTT and TTP values (P<0.05). Conclusion: Whole-brain volume CT angiography can comprehensively display early cerebral ischemic lesions, cerebral blood perfusion status, and cerebral vascular stenosis, providing valuable information for early detection of ischemic cerebral diseases and appropriate treatment planning.

Objective The present study investigated the predictive value of each perfusion parameter of the Alberta Stroke Program Early Computed Tomography Score (ASPECTS) in CT perfusion (CTP) imaging for the prognosis of endovascular treatment at the time of admission in patients with acute ischemic stroke in the anterior circulation. Patients and Methods The imaging data of 62 patients with acute ischemic stroke in the anterior circulation with an onset time of 6 h or less were retrospectively analyzed. All patients underwent the one-stop whole-brain dynamic volume four-dimensional (4D) CT angiography (CTA)-CTP and cranial magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) within seven days after treatment. The patients were divided into better and worse prognosis groups according to their clinical symptoms, combined with an MRI-ASPECTS score of ≤ 6 within seven days after treatment. The observed perfusion parameters included cerebral blood flow (CBF)-ASPECTS, cerebral blood volume (CBV)-ASPECTS, mean transit time (MTT)-ASPECTS, and time to peak (TTP)-ASPECTS. The difference in ASPECTS scores involving the CTP parameter, as well as diagnostic power, was compared between the two groups of patients. Results All CTP-ASPECTS scores negatively correlated with clinical prognosis. The higher the CTP-ASPECTS scores preceding treatment in patients with ischemic stroke in the anterior circulation, the better the prognosis. There were statistically significant differences in the scores of CBF-ASPECTS and CBV-ASPECTS between the two groups (P < 0.05). Receiver operating curve (ROC) analysis showed that the parameter with the largest area under the curve (AUC) was the CBF-ASPECTS score (P = 0.003), with a sensitivity of 90.9%, a specificity of 59.1%, and an AUC of 0.806, which was the most valuable prognostic predictor. Conclusion The CBF-ASPECTS score presented significant value as a primary indicator for predicting the outcome of endovascular treatment in patients with acute ischemic stroke in the anterior circulation, and it had good application prospects in clinical practice.
剖宫产瘢痕妊娠(CSP)指孕囊或绒毛/胎盘种植于子宫下段剖宫产瘢痕部位的异位妊娠 [1] ,临床上较少见,近年由于全球范围内剖宫产率上升,导致CSP发生率升高。CSP患者如盲目行药物流产或清宫手术可导致孕妇大出血、子宫破裂、弥散性血管内凝血、甚至需要切除子宫,直接影响患者生育能力,甚至危及生命等严重后果,因此,早期正确诊断非常重要。MRI具有高的软组织分辨率及无电离辐射的优点,目前广泛应用于孕产妇的疾病诊断。本文回顾性分析24例经病理诊断的CSP患者的MRI资料,探讨CSP早期表现,旨在提高诊断水平。
