Abstract:
Objective To assess the utility of single source-dual energy CT for distinguishing bladder cancer from hematoma. Methods We retrospectively identified 14 patients with postoperative or follow-up bladder hematoma who had undergone dual energy protocol (40-140 keV)scanning by single source-dual energy CT.The subjective scoring of tumor detection and image quality,the optimal monochrome images and iodine-water images were evaluated by two radiologists who didn’t know the results.The consistency of two observers was analyzed by Kappa test.Mann-Whitney U test was used to compare the difference between the two kinds of diseases and ROC curve was used to analyze the diagnostic efficiency.The statistical differences of image quality scoring among different images were obtained by using Mann-Whitney U test.Results The consistency of the two observers about scoring of lesion detection was good for all groups.There were statistical differences between two groups in non-enhanced phase and arterial phase of mixed-energy images,non-enhanced phase,arterial phase and delayed phase of optimal monochromatic images,and all phase of iodine-water images. The AUC of iodine-water images in the four phases (0.985,1.000,0.955,0.924,respectively)were all higher than that of polychrome unenhanced and arterial phase images (0.909,0.909).The diagnostic efficiency of arterial phase on iodine-water images was the highest.Sensitivity and specificity were both 100% when score was greater than 2.5.There was no statistical difference between two kinds of diseases on non-enhanced phase,delayed phases of mixed-energy or monochromatic images(P >0.05).There were no statistical differences in image quality scoring among the three groups with the same phases (P>0.05).Conclusion Optimal monochromatic images and iodine-water images of single source-dual energy CT are more effective than conventional CT in distinguishing bladder cancer from hematoma.
