Abstract:
Objective To assess the value of multi-slice computer tomography enterography (MSCTE) in demonstrating small intestinal diseases.Methods MSCTE was performed with iso-osmotic manitol (2.5%) as oral contrast in 98 patients with various kinds of suspected small intestinal diseases.All patients were inter- viewed about their tolerance of the procedure.Demonstration of features of various kinds of small intestinal dis- eases was analyzed.MSCTE diagnosis of different small intestinal diseases were compared with the final clinical diagnosis.Results The procedure was acceptable by all patients and no obvious complication was found. MSCTE was performed for 2 patients because of the failure of conventional small bowel enteroclysis.CT features of many kinds of diseases such as tumors,Crohn's disease were clearly displayed.The sensitivity of MSCTE was 96.5% (83/86),accuracy 90.8% (89/98).Conclusion MSCTE is a simple,rapid,noninvasive and effective method in evaluating small intestinal diseases.
