Abstract:
Objective To explore the imaging method and the value of clinical application of spiral CT virtual endoscopy(CTVE)to stomach.Methods After 36 patients took the aerosis agent or 5% contrast medium,virtual endoscopic images were obtained by using GE-Navigator smooth image model and multiplanar reconstruction.Results Two types of contrasts complemented each other.Normal gastric structure,stenosis and obstruction were clearly visualized in 36 patients.Conclusion CTVE can provide a noninvasive diagnostic method,supplemented to fiberoptic endoscopy,but its sensitivity and specificity should be improved.
