Value of energy spectrum CT volume quantitative parameters in differentiating pathological types of colorectal cancer
To investigate the clinical value of energy spectrum CT volume quantitative parameters in differentiating pathological types of colorectal cancer.
Methods
2
The clinical and imaging data of 66 patients (16 cases of mucinous adenocarcinoma and 50 cases of tubular adenocarcinoma) with colorectal cancer confirmed by pathology in our hospital from January 2019 to November 2021 were collected and retrospectively analyzed. The volume parameters and two-dimensional parameters of the tumor
including iodine (water) concentration
water (iodine) concentration and effective atomic number
were measured by different methods of region of interest (ROI) acquisition
and normalized iodine (water) concentration (NIC) was calculated. Student's
t
test or Mann-Whitney
U
test was used for comparison between groups
and receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was drawn to evaluate the diagnostic efficacy of statistically significant parameters for pathological types of colorectal cancer.
Results
2
In terms of energy spectrum volume parameters
iodine (water) concentration
NIC and Eff-Z in arterial and venous phases were significantly different (
P
<
0.01). The iodine (water) concentration
NIC and Eff-Z of mucinous adenocarcinoma were lower than those of tubular adenocarcinoma. However
in the two-dimensional parameters
only iodine (water) concentration
NIC and Eff-Z in venous phase had significant differences among grou
ps (
P
<
0.05). The volumetric iodine (water) concentration and NIC in mucinous adenocarcinoma were lower than corresponding two-dimensional parameters. ROC curve showed that the area under the curve of energy spectrum volume parameters was higher than that of two-dimensional parameters. Among them
arterial volume NIC had the highest diagnostic efficiency
with a sensitivity of 82.0% and specificity of 87.5%.
Conclusion
2
The quantitative parameters of CT volume of energy spectrum may have greater potential clinical value in differentiating mucinous colorectal adenocarcinoma from tubular adenocarcinoma than two-dimensional parameters.
