PDFAbstract
Objective To study the magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and high resolution CT (HRCT) value in the diagnosis of pulmonary fibrosis. Methods 30 patients confirmed pulmonary fibrosis by pathology from June 2013 to July 2014 in my hospital were accepted MRI and high-resolution CT scans respectively, to compare their difference of diagnostic value by analyzing the image features. Results The pulmonary fibrosis detection rate of MRI was 56.67% (17/30), high resolution CT rate reached 100% (13/30), both of apparent significant differences (P<0.05); MRI parameters and multidimensional imaging of the lung, pulmonary fibrosis can accurately locate and fibrosis of lung tissue of MRI imaging and MRI of normal lung tissue is characterized by the low signal resolution than high resolution CT Imaging, can show massive fibrosis.High resolution CT can visualize the pleura referrals and interlobular emphysema, such as density, net change, and ground glass shadow, High resolution CT resolution higher than the effect of MRI images. Conclusions MRI and CT in the diagnosis of pulmonary fibrosis have advantages, MRI to guide the surgical procedure, and CT in the clinical diagnosis has a higher value, Recommends the use of high resolution CT in clinic diagnosis.
