Abstract:
Objective To explore the value of gemstone spectral imaging (GSI)in quantitative evaluation of Lauren classification of gastric cancer.Methods Fifty-two patients with gastric cancer confirmed by gastroscopy underwent contrast-enhanced spectral CT imaging preoperatively.The monoergic and iodine-based images were obtained by GSI Viewer software,CT value and iodine concentration (IC)of the lesions were measured,and normalized iodine concentration (NIC)was calculated.With the reference of postoperative pathology,data were analyzed by LSD method of one-way analysis of variance.Results The IC,NIC,spectrum curve slope of 40-70 keV,40-140 keV and 70-140 keV energy range of intestinal type,mixed type and diffuse type carcinoma in the arterial phase were 12.86±6.80 (100 μg/mL),0.13±0.06 ,2.50±1.26 ,0.99±0.51 ,0.34±0.20 ,18.54±6.49 (100 μg/mL),0.19±0.07, 3.56±1.24,1.42±0.50,0.50±0.18 and 24.52±9.68 (100 μg/mL),0.24±0.09,4.73±1.76,1.90±0.73,0.68±0.29,respectively. The values of intestinal type were all significantly lower than those of diffuse type (P <0.05).Comparison between intestinal-mixed type and mixed-diffuse type,the other parameters were no significant differences except IC between intestinal-mixed type (P=0.037).Conclusion The slope of spectrum curve,iodine concentration,and normalized iodine concentration could be helpful for preoperative evaluation of Lauren classification of gastric cancer.
