Objective To compare the clinical value of three-dimensional dynamic contrast enhanced magnetic resonance angiography (3D DCE MRA) and digital subtraction angiography (DSA) in diagnosing inferior vena cava diseases in suspected case of Budd-Chiari syndrome (BCS).Methods Radiological findings of 91 suspected BCS cases obtained from 3D DCE MRA and DSA in the Affiliated Hospital of Xuzhou Medical University were retrospectively analyzed.DSA test was considered as golden standard,which assess the capacity of 3D DCE MRA in diagnosing inferior vena cava diseases,including sensitivity,specificity and accuracy.Kappa test was utilized to compare the coincidence ratio of 3D DCE MRA and DSA in diagnosing inferior vena cava diseases.Results Among 91 suspected BCS cases with 3D DCE MRA,a total of 17 cases without inferior vena cava diseases were misdiagnosed as inferior vena cava stenosis,two patients with inferior vena caval obstruction was misdiagnosed as falsely negative.Seventy-two patients with 3D DCE MRA were confirmed via DSA in diagnosing inferior vena cava diseases,sensitivity was up to 97.7％ (58/60),false positivity 54.8％ (17/31),specificity 45.2％ (14/31),respectively.Fair coincidence ratio of 3D DCE MRA and DSA in diagnosing inferior vena cava diseases (Kappa =0.474,P ＜ 0.05).Conclusions There could be clinical value of 3D DCE MRA for its high sensitivity and low specificity in diagnosing inferior vena cava diseases,and favorable coincidence ratio was discovered between 3D DCE MRA and DSA.Comprehensive consideration is needed for suspected cases of inferior vena cava stenosis detected by 3D DCE MRA,and further analysis may figure out potential causes of misdiagnosis and decline false positive events.

Objective To evaluate the diagnostic value of dermoscopy and reflectance confocal microscopy (RCM) alone or in combination for melanocytic nevus.Methods A total of 37 patients with clinically diagnosed melanocytic nevus were collected.Skin lesions were firstly examined by dermoscopy and RCM,then were resected to be subjected to histopathological examination for final diagnosis.The imaging features of melanocytic nevus were summarized.The sensitivity,specificity,positive predictive value,negative predictive value and accuracy of different skin imaging techniques were calculated,and the consistency was analyzed between skin imaging techniques and histopathological examination.Results Based on the dermoscopic and RCM findings,2 kinds of nevus cells with different morphological features were observed in the dermis of intradermal nevus.One kind of nevus cells was characterized by a nonfusional,highly-refractive round structure in the papillary dermis under RCM,and by a brown or light brown homogenous pattern under dermoscopy,which was observed in 5 skin lesions.The other kind of nevus cells appeared as irregular,highly-refractive cell clumps in the papillary dermis under RCM,and by a cobblestone or globular pattern under dermoscopy,which was observed in 31 skin lesions.For the diagnosis of melanocytic nevus,the sensitivity,specificity,accuracy,positive predictive value and negative predictive value of RCM combined with dermoscopy were 91.7％,87.5％,90.9％,97.1％ and 70％ respectively,those of RCM were 86.1％,75％,84％,93.9％ and 54.5％ respectively,and those of dermoscopy were 77.8％,87.5％,75％,96.3％ and 41.2％ respectively.All the diagnostic indices of RCM combined with dermoscopy were higher than those of RCM or dermoscopy alone,except that the specificity was equal to that of dermoscopy alone.RCM showed higher sensitivity,accuracy and negative predictive value,but lower specificity and positive predictive value compared with dermoscopy.There were no significant differences in the diagnostic yield in melanocytic nevus between RCM combined with dermoscopy or RCM alone and histopathological examination (x2 =0.25,0.57,P =0.63,0.45,Kappa value =0.72,0.53,respectively).However,a significant difference in the diagnostic yield in melanocytic nevus was observed between dermoscopy and histopathological examination (x2 =5.81,P =0.012).Conclusion RCM combined with dermoscopy shows higher diagnostic accuracy for melanocytic nevus compared with RCM or dermoscopy alone.
