Abstract:
Objective To asses the value of shear wave elastorgraphy(SWE)in the diagnosis of salivary gland manifestation in sjogren syndrome.Methods Seventy-nine patients with suspected diagnosis of Sjogren syn-drome and thirty healthy volunteers were enrolled. aned divided to the SS group,non-SS group and healthy group accoroding to the 2002 American-European Consensus Group.The bilateral parotid and submandibular gland of all patients were examined with shear wave Elastography,then the mean Young's modulus(YM)of bilateral gland were obtained. The differences of Emean between all groups were compared. Receiver operating characteristic curve(ROC)was drawn to evaluate the best cut-off value in diagnosis of Sjogren syndrome. Results The differ-ences of YM between the two sides of parotid gland and submaxillary gland were not statistically significant(P >0.05).On ROC curve,the areas under the curve(AUC),threshold,sensitivity,specificity of the mean YM value in Parotid and Submaxillary gland were 0.921 and 0.916(P<0.05),18.30 and 16.57(kPa),71.7%and 86.8%, 94.4% and 78.5%,respectively. Conclusion The mean YM value of Parotid and Submaxillary gland of Sjogren syndrome can quantitatively assess the gland's elasticity.SWE can provide clincal evidence for diagnosis of sjogren syndrome.
