Objective To observe the value of contrast-enhanced ultrasonography (CEUS) in quantitatively evaluating the evolution of the blood supply of rabbit liver VX2 tumor models in early stage. Methods Eighteen liver VX2 tumor models of rabbits were divided into 3 groups randomly (each n=6). CEUS was performed on the 10th, 15th and 20th day group after establishemnt, resepectively. Time intensity curve (TIC) was plotted, the rabbits' liver tumor and surrounding normal liver tissue were resected for immuno-histochemistry and microvessel density (MVD) count. Results CEUS showed that the rabbit liver VX2 tumor present a typical malignant tumor imaging fast-in and fast-out in early stage. TIC showed that the time to peak (TTP) of hepatic tumor is shorter than that of surrounding normal liver tissue in all three groups (P<0.01), no statistical difference of tumor's TTP was detected among three groups (P>0.05). Absolute enhanced intensity (AEI) and MVD reduced in turn of 10th, 15th and 20th day group. MVD of tumor was higher in 10thday group than surrounding normal liver tissue (P<0.01), while was equal in 15th day group (P>0.05) and lower in 20th day group (P<0.01). AEI of liver tumor had positive correlation with MVD (r=0.83, P<0.05). Conclusion AEI of TIC can be used to quantitatively assess the evolution of the blood supply in rabbit liver VX2 tumor models. The blood supply in early stage of rabbit liver VX2 tumor models shows a gradual descent process from abundant blood supply to medium blood supply and then low blood supply.

Objective: To evaluate the diagnostic performance of conventional ultrasound, compression elastography (CE) and acoustic radiation force impulse imaging (ARFI) in diff erential diagnosis of benign and malignant breast tumors. Methods: A total of 98 patients with liver lesions were included in the study. The images of conventional ultrasound, CE and the values of virtual touch tissue quantiifcation (VTQ) of breast lesions were obtained. hTe diagnostic performance of conventional ultrasound, CE and ARFI were assessed by using pathology as the gold standard, and then evaluate the diagnosis effciency of these three approaches in differential diagnosing benign and malignant breast tumors. Results: The specificity, sensitivity and accuracy in the diagnosis of malignant breast tumors for conventional ultrasound were 80.0%, 81.1% and 81.7%, respectively, whereas for CE elastic score were 85.7%, 86.7% and 86.3%, respectively. With a cutoff value of 3.71 for the SR, the sensitivity, speciifcity, accuracy in diagnosis of malignant breast tumors were 97.1%, 83.3% and 88.4%, respectively. With a cutoff value of 3.78 m/s for VTQ, the sensitivity, speciifcity, accuracy in diagnosis of malignant breast tumors were 94.3%, 91.7% and 92.6%, respectively. The difference in diagnosis efficiency among ARFI, CE and conventional ultrasound in differential diagnosis of benign and malignant breast tumors was signiifcant (P<0.05). Conclusion: Conventional ultrasound, CE and ARFI are all useful for the differential diagnosis of benign and malignant breast tumors. But the diagnosis effciency of ARFI is superior to CE and conventional ultrasound. The three approaches can help each other in differential diagnosis of benign and malignant breast tumors.
