Methods: Twenty-eight patients with neoplasm were subjected to perfusion imaging with multi-slice helical CT, including 22 patients with brain neoplasm and 6 patients with body neoplasm. At first, CT routine scan was preformed to localize central slices of neoplasm. Then perfusion imaging of 4 and identical slices in central slices of neoplasm was performed by using CT cine scan. Scanning images were transferred into ADW3.1 work-station to create and analyze perfusion images and parameters. Results: Perfusion parameters of cerebral neoplasm had a remarkable increase. But, CBF value of different cerebral neoplasms had partial overlap; CBV value was increased slightly; MTT value had no apparently clinical value; PS value was increased significantly, pituitary neoplasm〉meningoma〉cerebral glioma≈cerebral metastasis. PS value could reveal the characters of cerebral neoplasm and had apparently clinical value. Perfusion parameters of body neoplasms have a remarkable increase too. Body tumors were liable to be interfered by breath movement. Perfusion parameters were helpful to differentiation diagnosis of neoplasm in the brain and body. PS images of neoplasm in the brain and body were helpful to defining tumor outline and finding small tumor. Conclusion: MSCT perfusion imaging provided a precise and relative simple method to quantitatively estimate blood perfusion status in tumors in the brain and body. The technique can be easily implemented on clinical scanners.展开更多

Methods: Twenty-six patients (18 males and 8 females ranging from 9 to 56 years old, with an average of 19 years) with osteosarcoma underwent 64-slice spiral CTPI. We analyzed the correlations of CTPI parameters including blood flow (BF), blood volume (BV), time to peak (TTP), and permeability surface (PS) with the expression of markers of angiogenesis. Statistical analysis was performed with paired-samples t test, and Pearson correlation analysis was employed to investigate the correlations of CTPI parameters with microvessel density (MVD). Results: Mean BF, BV, TTP, and PS values of osteosarcoma group were (46.6 ± 25.1) mL/100 g/min, (61.8 ± 29.5) mL/100 g, (122.9 ± 26.2) seconds, and (44.5 ± 14.6) mL/100 g/min, respectively. Those in the normal muscle group were (5.2 ± 6.6) mL/100 g/min, (9.6 ± 7.3) mL/100 g, (115.5 ± 33.1) seconds and (17.0 ± 29.3) mL/100 g/min, respectively. Osteosarcoma group showed higher BF, BV and PS compared with the normal muscle group (P = 0.000, P = 0.000, and P = 0.000, respectively). However, no significant difference was found in TTP between osteosarcoma tissue and normal adjacent muscle tissue (P = 0.273). BF, BV, and PS were positively correlated with MVD (r = 0.83, P = 0.000; r = 0.87, P = 0.000; and r = 0.63, P = 0.001, respectively). No correlation was found between TTP and MVD (r = –0.02, P = 0.93). Conclusion: CTPI is useful for assessing tumor vascularity of osteosarcoma and CTPI parameters are positively correlated with MVD.展开更多
