PDFAbstract
Objective To study the diagnostic value of dynamic enhanced CT scanning in differentiating benign and malignant solitary pulmonary nodules (SPN). Methods The clinical data of 104 patients with solitary pulmonary nodules treated in our hospital between January 2012 and December 2014 were reviewed, and the patients were given dynamic enhanced CT scanning. The results showed by dynamic enhanced CT scanning and the pathology detection results as well as the changes of CT value were observed and compared. Results The dynamic enhanced CT scanning was with a higher accuracy in the diagnosis of benign and malignant pulmonary nodules, which was 95.31% for the benign ones and 97.50% for the malignant ones. Apart from that, CT enhancement value in the group of patients, both for benign ones and malignant ones, was significantly higher than that of nonenhanced CT value, and the value of malignant pulmpnary nodules changes more dramatically (P<0.05, P<0.01). Conclusion Dynamic enhanced CT scanning is of great value in the diagnosis of benign and malignant SPN, which thus is worth clinical promotion and application.
