Abstract:
Objective Toexploretheapplicationvalueof3.0TMRIinthepreoperativestagingandassessmentof rectal cancer. Methods Data of 103 patients with rectal cancer diagnosed by biopsy was collected. The T staging, situationsofparacoliclymphaticmetastasisandfasciainvolvement,anddistanceoftumoredgetoanalvergewereestimated bypreoperativeMRI.ThestageandassessmentofpreoperativeMRIandpostoperativepathologywerecompared. Results MRIshowedthattherewere5patientswithstageT1-2,72patientswithstageT3,and26patientswithstageT4.And pathologicaldiagnosisshowedthattherewere5patientswithstageT1,16patientswithstageT2,60patientswithstageT3, and22patientswithstageT4.ThesensitivityandspecificityofstageT1-2,T3,andT4were23.8%and100%,96.7%and 67.4%,90.9%and92.6%,respectively.ResultsofMRIwerebroadlyconsonantwiththeresultsofpathology(Kappa=0.748, P<0.01).MRIshowedthattherewere74patientswithparacoliclymphaticmetastasis.Pathologicaldiagnosisaftersurgery showedthattherewere66patientswithparacoliclymphaticmetastasis.ThesensitivityandspecificityforMRIdiagnosis were92.4%and64.9%,respectively(Kappa=0.601,P<0.01).Amongthe18patientsreceivedanalresection,thedifferent valueofdistanceoftumoredgetoanalvergewaslessthanorequalto6mmbetweenMRIandpostoperativespecimen,with nosignificantdifference(P>0.05).Totally65patientswithoutfasciainvolvementdiagnosedbyMRIwereconsonantwith theresultsofpostoperativepathology.Amongthe38patientswithfasciainvolvementdiagnosedbyMRI,12patientswere false-positive.Thesensitivityandspecificitywere100.0%and84.4%,respectively(Kappa=0.732, P=0.000).Conclusion 3.0TMRIcanprovideaccuratepreoperativestagingandevaluationforpatientswithrectalcancerbeforetheoperation,and helpinclinicaldiagnosisandtreatment.
