PDFAbstract
Objective To investigate the difference in signal between cerebral lymphoma and high grade glioma on magnetic susceptibility weighted imaging(SWI), and to provide scientific evidence for clinical differential diagnosis. Methods The patients with cerebral lymphoma and high-grade glioma in our hospital were selected as the research subjects, the clinical and imaging data of patients were analyzed by retrospective study. The routine MRI and SWI findings were analyzed, and semi quantitative scoring was performed. Results There were 19 lesions in patients with cerebral lymphoma, of whom 8 had 0 point in vessel scores, and 9 had 1 points. 1 lesion with 3 points. There were 27 lesions in the patients with high grade glioma, including 5 lesions with blood vessel score of 2, and 22 lesions with a blood vessel score of 3. There was significant difference in vascular score between the brain lymphoma group and the high grade glioma group(P<0.05).Conclusion SWI can directly display magnetic susceptibility signals in tumors, and is helpful for the differential diagnosis of brain lymphoma and high-grade gliomas. It has important clinical value.
