Abstract:
Objective:The aim of this study is to evaluate the diagnostic value of turbo spin-echo（TSE） diffusion weighted imaging（DWI） in temporal bone cholesteatoma.
Method:A prospective evaluated of 76 patients with suspected sacral cholesteatoma was performed using a Philips Ingenia 3.0T superconducting magnetic resonance scanner and a 32-channel head coil with turbo spin-echo diffusion weighted imaging（TSE-DWI） sequence and conventional magnetic resonance scan, and underwent surgery within the next two weeks. The pathological result is the gold standard, and the imaging diagnosis and surgery are performed. The intraoperative observation and pathological results were compared. The diagnostic accuracy, sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value and negative predictive value of TSE-DWI sequence in the diagnosis of temporal bone cholesteatoma were calculated.
Result:Of the 76 patients with suspected temporal bone cholesteatoma, TSE-DWI scan was performed, 44 cases were diagnosed as cholesteatoma and 32 cases were non-cholesteatoma. Based on the pathology results, 46 cases were diagnosed as cholesteatoma, 30 cases were non-cholesteatoma. The accuracy of TSW-DWI sequence in the diagnosis of cholesteatoma was 89.47%, 3 cases were false negative and 5 cases was false positive. The sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value and negative predictive value of TSE-DWI in the diagnosis of temporal bone cholesteatoma were 89.13%, 90.00%, 93.18%, and 84.38%, respectively.
Conclusion:The TSE-DWI sequence has high signal-to-noise ratio and can improve the diagnostic accuracy and specificity. TSE-DWI sequence is of great value in clinical diagnosis and treatment.
