Abstract:
Objective To investigate the relationship between multi-slice spiral CT perfusion imaging and tumor angiogenesis and cell cycle protein D1 (cyclinD1) expression in patients with peripheral lung cancer. Methods Seventy-three patients with peripheral lung cancer underwent 16-slice spiral CTperfusion imaging. The CT perfusion imaging were analyzed for time density curve (TDC), perfusion parametric maps and the respective perfusion parameters (BF, BV, PS, PH, and PHpm/PHa). Correlation between the respective perfusion parameters and immunohistochemical findings of MVD measurement and cyclinD1 expression were evaluated. Statistical method used one factor analysis of variance (One-wayANOVA) and Pearson correlation analysis. Results The shape of TDC of three groups of peripheral lung cancers (adenocarcinoma, squamous cell carcinoma, and other type of cancer) was similar. They showed a steeper slope, was obvious increase of nodular HU value [ peak height of TDC is respectively (44. 87±6. 83), (34. 91 ± 8.05), (40. 66±5. 87) HU ], changed little after reaching peak height, became flat at peak, had a platform. Forty-four patients were cyclinD1 positive expression, the peripheral lung cancers with cyclinD1 positive expression showed significantly higher MVD value than that of the peripheral lung cancers with cyclinD1 negative expression [ respectively (33.88± 14. 81), (23. 17±11.66) band/high magnification, P < 0. 01]. The cancers with cyclinD1 positive expression showed significantly higher PH,PHpm/PHa, BF,BV, PS value than those of the cancers with cyelinD1 negative expression[respectively P <0. 05]. MVD was positively correlated with PH, PHpm/PHa, BF, BV, and PS of the three groups ofcancers with cyclinD1 positive expression. Among, the correlation coefficient (r value) of BV, PS, BF was0. 409, 0. 517,0. 503 respectively(all P < 0. 01). MVD was significantly correlated with them. The r valueof PH, PHpm/PHa is 0. 319,0. 324 respectively(all P < 0. 05). MVD was less correlated with them. MVDwas not correlated with PH, PHpm/PHa, BF, BV, and PS of the three groups of cancers with cyclinD1 negative expression. Conclusions Multi-slice spiral CT perfusion imaging moderately correlated with tumorangiogenesis and reflected MVD measurement and cyclinD1 expression. It provided not only a noninvasive method of quantitative assessment for blood flow patterns of peripheral lung cancer but also an applicable diagnostic method for peripheral lung cancer.
