Value of acceleration time index and ratio of elastic strain rate in the differential diagnosis of benign and malignant breast tumors
Objective To explore the application value of acceleration time index(ATI)and ratio of elastic strain rate(SR)in the differential diagnosis of benign and malignant breast tumors.Methods The clinical data of 120 breast tumor patients was analyzed retrospectively.They were divided into benign group(76 cases
98 lesions)and malignant group(44 cases
57 lesions) according to the results of pathological examination. All patients were underwent conventional ultrasound and ultrasound elastography
the ATI and SR values of the two groups were calculated and compared. The receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve was drawn to analyze the value of ATI
SR and their combination in the differential diagnosis of malignant breast tumors
the area under the curve(AUC) was calculated.Results Two-dimensional ultrasound image characteristics(lesions form
long axis direction
echo intensity
internal echo uniformity
boundary condition
calcification degree
posterior echo intensity)were compared between the two groups
the differences were statistically significant(all P<0.05).The ATI and SR values of patients in the malignant group were significantly higher than those in the benign group(0.18±0.05 vs. 0.11±0.03
3.05±0.65 vs. 2.33±0.41)
the differences were statistically significant(both P<0.05).ROC curve analysis showed that the AUC of ATI and SR values for differential diagnosis of malignant breast tumors were 0.842 and 0.813
respectively
and the AUC(0.906)of the combined application was higher than that of the single application(both P<0.05).Conclusion Both the acceleration time index and SR show good application value in the differential diagnosis of benign and malignant breast tumors
and the combined value of the two is higher.
