Abstract:
Objective To observe the value of multi-slice spiral CT(MSCT)post-processing technologies for diagnosing otosclerosis.Methods Clinical data and original axial plain MSCT of 47 patients with otosclerosis(92 ears)and 65 patients with non-otosclerosis hearing impairment(79 ears)were retrospectively enrolled.MSCT post-processing images,including multi-planar reformation(MPR)of stapes and cochleas and curved planar reformation(CPR)of ossicular chains were obtained.The diagnostic value of original MSCT images alone and raw data of MSCT combing with post-processing images for diagnosing otosclerosis were compared.Results Otosclerosis was correctly diagnosed in 66 ears according to original MSCT images alone,but in 89 ears combined with MSCT post-processing images.The sensitivity of original MSCT images alone and combined with MSCT post-processing images was 71.74%and 96.74%,respectively,and the diagnostic accuracy was 81.29%and 96.49%,respectively,those of the latter were both higher than of the former(both P<0.05),which had specificities being not significantly different(92.41%vs.96.20%,P>0.05).Conclusion Combining with post-processing technologies could increase the sensitivity and accuracy of MSCT for diagnosing otosclerosis.
