Abstract

Objective To study the application value of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in the rehabilitation therapy of children with cerebral palsy. Methods Sixty-five children with cerebral palsy admitted in our hospital between September 2015 to May 2016 were studied. All the subjects underwent MRI multi-sequence scanning. With the rehabilitation degree of children with cerebral palsy after rehabilitation therapy as the reference standard, the sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value, negative predictive value, accuracy and Kappa value of MRI examination were calculated. Results The sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value, negative predictive value, accuracy and Kappa value of MRI examination were 87.9%, 93.75%, 93.5%, 88.2%, 90.8% and 0.82 respectively. Conclusion There is certain correlation between the relief of lesions and the rehabilitation degree of children with cerebral palsy. MRI multi-sequence scan is of great value in diagnosis, treatment and evaluation of prognosis.
