Abstract:
Objective To compare the diagnostic value of 64-slice helical CT cholangiography and MR cholangiopancreatography (MRCP) for pancreaticobiliary obstructive diseases. Methods Thirty-six patients with pathologically proved pancreaticobiliary obstruction or endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) were examined with MRCP and routine enhanced CT scanning. CT row data of portal venous phase were reconstructed with 0.625 mm thickness and intervals. Then multiplanar reformation (MPR) of intra- and extrahepatic biliary duct, gallbladder and pancreas was generated, and curved planar reformation (CPR) was performed when necessary. The accuracy of MPR (and CPR) and MRCP in evaluating the site and nature of obstruction was compared. Results The accuracy of MPR and MRCP was 97.22% and 94.44% in evaluating the site of obstruction, respectively. In evaluating the nature of obstruction, the accuracy of MPR and MPCP was 83.33% and 80.56%, respectively, and the accuracy of MPR increased to 88.89% in combination with CPR in some patients. There was no statistical difference between the accuracy of MPR and MRCP in evaluating the site and nature of obstruction, while their diagnostic consistency was medium (Kappa=0.471). Conclusion Both MSCT cholangiography and MRCP have high diagnostic value in pancreaticobiliary obstruction, while the former gets some advantages in images review for clinicians.
