Abstract:
Objective:To explore the clinical value of combination of contrast-enhanced ultrasound(CEUS)and magnetic reso-nance imaging(MRI)in the diagnosis of parotid gland tumors.Methods:167 patients with parotid gland tumors were diagnosed by CEUS and MRI respectively and in combination.With postoperative pathological diagnosis result as the gold standard,the diagnos-tic value of CEUS combined with MRI(CEUS+MRI)was analyzed.Results:171 tumors were confirmed by postoperative pathology in 167 patients,including 143 benign tumors(83.63％)and 28 malignant tumors(16.37％).The benign tumors were mainly pleo-morphic adenoma(65 tumors,45.45％),Warthin tumor(40 tumors,27.97％)and basal cell adenoma(13 tumors,9.09％).Among the malignant tumors,mucoepidermoid carcinoma(7 tumors,25.00％),adenoid cystic carcinoma(6 tumors,21.43％)and acinic cell carcinoma(3 tumors,10.71％)were the most common.CEUS showed 39 cases of malignant parotid gland tumors and 132 cases of benign parotid gland tumors.The sensitivity,specificity and accuracy rate of CEUS were 57.14％,83.92％and 79.53％respectively.The MRI ADC values were manifested as pleomorphic adenoma＞malignant tumor＞Warthin tumor(P＜0.05).MRI showed 53 cases of malignant parotid gland tumors and 118 cases of benign parotid gland tumors,and the sensitivity,specifici-ty and accuracy rate of MRI diagnosis were 67.86％,76.22％and 74.85％respectively.CEUS+MRI revealed 33 cases of malig-nant parotid gland tumors and 138 cases of benign parotid gland tumors,the sensitivity,specificity and accuracy rate of CEUS+MRI diagnosis were 78.57％,92.31％and 90.06％respectively.The specificity and accuracy rate of CEUS+MRI were significantly higher than those of single examination(x2=4.806,13.951,7.348,13.664,allP＜0.05).Conclusion:Both CEUS and MRI have certain clinical value in the diagnosis of parotid gland tumors,and the specificity and accuracy rate of CEUS+MRI are significantly higher than those of single examination.
