Abstract:
Objective:To explore the predictive value of multi-slice spiral CT (MSCT) arterial enhancement fraction (AEF) in the risk degree of gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GIST).Methods:The clinical data of 178 patients with GIST in Shanxi Province Cancer Hospital from January 2013 to May 2021 were retrospectively analyzed. According to tumor size, primary site, mitotic figure and whether the tumor was ruptured or not, the patients were divided into extremely low risk group (24 cases), low risk group (44 cases), medium risk group (48 cases), and high risk group (62 cases). One-way ANOVA was used to compare MSCT AEF value and conventional plain and enhanced scan values among the 4 groups. The receiver operating characteristics (ROC) curve was drawn to assess the predictive efficacy of AEF value, conventional plain value, enhanced scan value, Ki-67 and AEF value combined with Ki-67 for high-risk GIST.Results:Except for CT value in the venous phase and CT value in added arterial phase, the comparison of AEF value, plain scan CT value, arterial phase CT value, and added venous phase CT value of GIST patients in the 4 groups showed statistically significant differences (all P < 0.05). In the predictive efficacy evaluation of high-risk GIST, the area under the curve (AUC) of the ROC curve for AEF value was 0.753, which was higher than that for plain scan CT value (0.593), arterial phase CT value (0.592) and added venous phase CT value (0.631), lower than AEF combined with Ki-67 (0.799). Kappa consistency test showed that the AEF value, plain scan CT value and arterial phase CT value were consistent with the pathological examination results (Kappa values were 0.375, 0.168 and 0.168, respectively), however, the added venous phase CT value was inconsistent with the pathological examination results (Kappa = -0.224). The AUC of AEF value combined with Ki-67 for predicting high-risk GIST was 0.799, and the Kappar value was 0.528. Conclusions:MSCT AEF value varies in GIST with different risk degree, and its preoperative efficacy in predicting high-risk GIST is superior to that of conventional plain scan and enhanced scan; especially the combination of AEF value with Ki-67 shows a higher predictive efficacy.
