Abstract:
Objective To study relation between tumor blood vessels around hepatocellular carcinomas and metastases and try to find out probability to predict potential metastases of hepatocellular carcinomas according to CT manifestation.Methods Both CT plain scans and dynamic contrast scans were taken in 134 cases of patients with hepatocellular carcinomas.The tumor blood vessels around and in cancers were counted.CT appearances,pathology results and patient follow-up were compared and analyzed.Results 1.The possibilty to happen metastases was much higher in carcinomas with heavy enhancement than that with gently or middle.2.Those with tumor blood vessel around neoplasm were greater metastasis rate than those without them.3.The enhancement degree in tumor border is positive correlation with blood count.Conclusion The latent metastases can be estimated according to the enhancing degree and tumor blood vessels around carcinomas.
