Abstract:
Objective To study the ultrasonic imaging of breast cancer with or without filling defect with contrast-enhanced ultrasound and clinical pathologic correlation.Methods The suspicious breast lesions underwent contrast-enhanced ultrasound examination, the imaging of 1 1 9 breast cancer with pathological results were retrospectively analyzed,and the contrast enhanced ultrasound effect,distribution of contrast agent,sequence of contrast agent into the tumor,contrast enhanced ultrasound mode,perforator vessel,filling defect and flow classification were observed.Then clinical and pathological data were collected including the tumor size,clinical stage,pathological grade and the situation of micro calcification.The perfusion defect as the grouping factor,there were 37 cases of perfusion defect and 82 cases without perfusion defect.A mono-pactor and multi factor analysis was performed by the logistic regression models to the relationship between perfusion defect and contrast-enhanced ultrasonography,clinical pathological parameters.Results Both mono factor and multifactor analysis displayed that whether to display the filling defect in contrast enhanced ultrasound was associated with ultrasound contrast distribution,the sequence of contrast agent into the tumor and histological grade(χ2=19.5050,21.1210,10.3640,OR =6.977,0.261, 2.509,all P <0.05).Multivariate analysis showed that tumor size and whether to display the filling defect in contrast enhanced ultrasound were close(OR =1.692,P <0.05).Clinical stage,whether the blood flow signal penetrates was meaningful in univariate analysis but excluded in multivariate analysis.Both mono factor and multifactor analysis displayed that contrast enhanced ultrasound mode,contrast enhanced ultrasound effect,flow classification and pathological micro calcification were not associated with whether to display the filling defect.Conclusions Whether to display the filling defect and the related factors of contrast-enhanced ultrasound in diagnosis of benign and malignant were not completely consistent.Breast cancers with filling defects of contrast-enhanced ultrasound tend to present large masses,contrast agent distribution of peripheral enhancement,centripetal filling of ultrasound contrast agents and the higer histological grading.
