Comparative Analysis of MRI Diagnosis and Multislice CT in the Diagnosis of Soft Tissue Tumors in Limbs

摘要

The purpose of this study was to compare and analyze the diagnostic applications of multisliecs spiral computed tomography(MSCT)and diffusively-weighted magnetic resonance imaging(MRI)in soft tissue tumors of extremities.A total of 104 patients with primary soft tissue tumors of limbs were selected for MSCT and MRI examination.MSCT values of various tumor types were compared during CT examination.In MRI detection,the diffusion sensitivity factor(b)of diffuse-weighted MRI was 0.500 s/mm2 to avoid as much as possible the bleeding,necrosis,scar and calcification heterogeneity components during operation.The maximum interest point was selected to observe the apparent diffusion coefficient(ADC)between benign and malignant tumors and muscle tissue.Results showed that among 104 patients,36 of patients were malignant and 68 of patients were benign.MSCT examination was consistent with pathology in 45 cases and MRI in 87 cases.In addition,the 59 of patients in MSCT examination and the 17 of patients in MRI were qualitative error and uncertainty.Soft tissue tumors on MSCT showed a low-density mass,and lipoma and cyst were specific.In MRI examination,T1WI and T2WI were significantly different in different types of tumors,while ADC values of malignant tumors were significantly lower than those of benign tumors and muscle tissues(P0.05).Therefore,MSCT can clearly show the soft tissue tumor lesions of the limbs and identify the relationship between them and the surrounding tissues.However,MSCT cannot make accurate characterization.MRI diffusivity weighted imaging can better differentiate benign from malignant and infer the histological origin of lesions.The detection level of MRI was significantly higher than that of CT,which was more consistent with pathology.Therefore,in the preoperative diagnosis of soft tissue tumors in limbs,MRI diffused-weighted imaging should be the first choice.
