Abstract

Objective To investigate the diagnostic value of ADC value and FF value of female pelvic bone with iron deficiency anemia. Methods Analyzed the MR images of 40 patients with anemia and 40 normal volunteers retrospectively. Measured the ADC values and FF values of pelvic bones (pubis, iliac bone, sacrum and ischial bone) respectively, compared the diversity of the parameter values in two groups, and analyzed each parameter value in light, moderate and severe anemia groups and different anatomical sites. The Receiver Operating Characteristic(ROC) curve was used to evaluate the threshold value and the diagnostic efficiency of these parameter values. Results The ADC values and FF values in the normal group were higher than those in the anemia group. The area under the ROC curve was 0.843 and 0.838, and the diagnostic thresholds were 0.646×10-3mm2 / s, 65.47%, the ADC values andFF values in light anemia group were higher than those in moderate and severe anemia group(P<0.05). There was no significant difference in the parameters between the moderate and severe anemia groups, as well as the parameters in different anatomical sites in pelvis. Conclusion Magnetic resonance IDEAL-IQ and DWI imaging can indirectly reflect the anemia of women from the perspective of bone marrow component changes, and can preliminarily determine the degree of anemia.
