Abstract:
Objective To evaluate the efficacy of discriminant function analysis for pericolic infiltration in colorectal cancer on enhanced 64-slice spiral CT and to improve the diagnostic accuracy and specificity of pericolic infiltration. Methods Dynamic enhanced 64-slice spiral CT was performed in 49 colorectal cancer patients (49 masses in total) before surgery. One or two slices were selected for each mass, with a total of 96 slices. The 96 slices were classified into two groups (pericolic infiltration or nonpericolic infiltration group) according to pathological data. Discriminant analysis was performed on the CT values between the mass and the corresponding pericolic tissue 5 mm from the mass at different time points as follows; 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 35, 40, 45, 50, 55, 60, 65, 70, and 75 s. The discriminant function was calculated, and the pericolic infiltration determined by discriminant function and CT morphology were compared with the pathological results. The CT values in pericolic and non-pericolic infiltration groups at different enhancement time points were assessed using analysis of variance. Results The mean CT values ranged from (43. 6 ±7. 8) HU to (52. 3 ±0. 8) HU in the pericolic infiltration group, and ranged from (100.4±20.3)HU to(116.2±21.4)HU in the non.perieolic infiltration group.At 20 s and 40 s,the mean CT vshle8 were(43.6±27.8)HU and(50.9±27.8)HU in the perleolic infiltration group, (102.0±16.9)HU and(116.2 ±21.4)HU in the non-perieolic infiltration group,respectively.The mean CT value in the pericolic infiltration group was significantly lower than that in the non-pericolic infiltration group at all contrast enhancement time points(F=6.278,P<0.01).A diseriminant function Was obtained as follows:D=-3.450+0.023Xl±0.017X2-0.00lX12-0.001X22+0.002X1×X2. Based on the CT morphology of colorectal cancer,69 slices were identified correctly and 27 slices were fulsely interpreted.the sensitivity.speeificity and accuracy for perieolic infiltration determination were 82.5%,64.3%and 71.9%.respectively.Based on diseriminant function,85 slices were identified correctly and 11 slices were falsely interpreted.the sensitivity,specificity and accuracy were 85.0%.91.1%and 88.5%,respectively.Conclusion The discriminant function with dynamic enhanced 64-slice spiral CT can improve the diagnostic accuracy and specificity of perieolic infiltration in eolorectal cancer patients.
