Abstract:
Objective To explore the value of morphometric quantitative parameters in differential diagnosis of common thyroid benign and malignant tumors, and establish a data bank as a basis for diagnosing diseases with the help of computer. Methods Using PIPS-2020 image analysis system to make a morphometric analysis in 32 cases of thyroid benign papillary lesion (TBPL), 32 cases of thyroid papillary adenocarcinoma(TPAC), 27 cases of thyroid follicular adenoma(TFA) and 24 cases of thyroid follicular adenocarcinoma(TFAC). Results Among many morphometric quantitative parameters of nuclei, eight including area, circumferential length, diameter,volume,long diameter, short diameter, largest to smallest diameter ratio, and circular rate were selected to analyze. The eight morphometric quantitative parameters between TFA and TFAC had a highly significant difference(P0.01). Conclusion These nuclear parameters have some value in differentiation of common thyroid benign and malignant tumors.
