Abstract:
Objective To study the clinical value of colorectal carcinoma exa mination by comparison of different postprocessing techniques such as multiplana r reformation(MPR),CT virtual colonoscopy(CTVC), shaded surface display(SSD) a nd Raysum. Methods 64 patients with colorectal carcinoma s underwent volu me scanning using spiral CT. MPR, CTVC, SSD and Raysum images were obtained by u sing 4 different softwares in workstation. All cases were proved by surgical or CC bioptic histology. The results were compared and analyzed according to the circumferential extension, length and pathologic patterns of colorectal carcinoma with MPR, CTVC, SSD and Raysum. Results The correct ion rate of dete rmination the circumferential extension of colorectal carcinoma with MPR, CTVC, SSD and Raysum were 1000%, 828%, 797% and 797%, respectively There wa s signi ficant statistical difference between MPR and CTVC; The accuracy of judging the leng th of carcinoma were 891%, 766%, 953% and 1000%, respectively. There wa s stat istical difference between CTVC and SSD; The accuracy of showing carcinoma patho logi c patterns were 813%, 922%, 719% and 719%, respectively. There was stati stica l difference between CTVC and SSD, too. MPR could correctly determine the circum ferential extension of colorectal carcinoma. In determination the length of carc inoma, Raysum was more accurate than SSD. CTVC could be more helpful in showing carcinoma pathologic patterns. Conclusion There were advantag es and disadvant ages in colorectal carcinoma examination with MPR, CTVC, SSD and Raysum, and the combination could display colorectal carcinoma more completely and comprehensiv ely.
