PDFAbstract
Objective To explore the diagnostic value of cervical carcinoma through the quantitative analysis of 3.0T dynamic enhanced MRI (DCE-MRI) and 4D-tissue technology. Methods 30 cases of cervical carcinoma from January 2013 to March 2015 were included in our study. All the cases had been confirmed by pathology. Patients aged 32-66 [An average of (47±10)]. Before treatment, all the patients were scanned by DCE-MRI. We compared TIC curve characteristics of tumor tissue and myometrium, used independent sample t test to compare the quantitative parameters of cervical cancer group and normal myometrium group. Results Tumor tissue and uterine muscle TIC curve: The tumors were given priority to type III curve, 26 cases of type III(86.67%). The uterine muscles were given priority to type I curve, 18 cases of type I (60%). The value of Ktrans, Ve and Kep between tumors and uterine muscles group had statistically significant difference(P<0.05). The average value of Ktrans, Ve and Kep for tumor tissues were significantly higher than normal uterine muscles group. Conclusion The quantitative parameters of DCE-MRI have a certain efficiency in the diagnosis of cervical carcinoma.
