Abstract:
Objective To discuss the correlation between MSCT morphological index of emphysema and pulmonary function test (PFT) indexes. Methods We randomly selected 33 cases with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD),and conducted CT and PFT in a week. The whole lung was scanned by MSCT at the end of deep aspiration,and the post-processing workstation was used for quantitative determination of a total of 12 morphological indexes,including the density of lung, pulmonary diameter line,lung volume,and etc,then their correlation with lung function index was analyzed.Results FEV1.0%had correlation with upper right lung density ( =0.391, =0.391), lower right lung density ( =0.465, =0.038),the mean lung density ( =0.576,=0.576), and total lung capacity (=0.471, =0.471),upper right lung volume ( =0.413, =0.049) . FEV1.0/FVC had correlation with left lower lung density ( =0.392, =0.024), the mean lung density ( =0.703, = 0.000), total lung transverse diameter ( = 0.521, = 0.521), upper right lung maximum transverse diameter ( =0.627, =0.627), and total lung capacity ( =0.549, =0.549) correlation. FVC had correlation with upper right lung maximum transverse diameter ( = 0.378, = 0.378), characterized by maximum transverse diameter (=0.349, =0.037) . TLC had correlation with mean lung density (=0.523,=0.523), upper right lung maximum transverse diameter ( =0.454, =0.454), and total lung capacity (= 0.001), the right lung volume ( = 0.492, = 0.492) . Conclusion MSCT lung morphology quantitative indicators have good clinical application value in the diagnosis and assessment of emphysema patients.
