Abstract

Objective To evaluate the diagnostic value of multi-slice spiral CT (MSCT) combined with image fusion in intracranial venous malformation (IVM). Methods 52 patients with IVM in our hospital from February 2015 to January 2018 were selected, MSCT scan and cerebrovascular imaging scan were used in the all patients, and image fusion technology was used for diagnosis. Results 52 cases of IVM, there were 47 cases of single lesion and 5 cases in multiple cases. The diagnostic accuracy of MSCT combined with image fusion technology was 100%, which was significantly higher than that of MSCT plain scan and enhancement (P<0.05). The diagnostic accuracy rate of MSCT enhanced was 63.46%, which was significantly higher than that of MSCT plain scan (P<0.05). The reconstructed images of 52 patients showed a typical "jellyfish head" sign, 40 patients not only showed typical IVM performance, and showed whole course of the IVM drainage vein and its adjacent vessels. Conclusion MSCT combined with image fusion technology has a high diagnostic value in IVM, which has the advantages of simple, non traumatic and so on.
