【摘要】 目的 探讨原发性中枢神经系统淋巴瘤(PCNSL)的CT及MRI表现特征,以提高术前对该病的影像诊断能力。方法 分析2008年1月—2009年8月华西医院16例经病理证实PCNSL患者的CT、MRI资料及病理资料。结果 病理检查均为B细胞来源的弥漫性大B细胞性淋巴瘤。16例PCNSL 29个病灶,单发11例(69%),多发5例(31%)18个病灶。病灶好发部位依次是大脑半球临近蛛网膜下腔12个(41.4%)、脑室周围深部白质7个(24.1%)、胼胝体3个(10.3%)。有5例病变CT平扫表现为等或略高于脑实质密度影,无出血和钙化;MRI平扫75.9%(19/25)的病灶T1WI呈等低信号,T2WI等稍低信号,类似“脑膜瘤”样信号,均未见血管流空;增强后病灶大都均匀实质团块状或结节状强化,典型的可出现“尖角征”、“握拳征”,3例可见小囊变,呈“硬环征”。结论 CT对PCNSL的定性诊断作用有限,MRI具有一定特征性表现者,多可作出正确的诊断,但确诊有赖于病理。
With the development of radiologic intervention, the treatments of aortic dissection are getting more and more diversified. In recent years, Debakey Ⅲ and DebakeyⅠaortic dissection has been usually treated with endovascular graft exclusion, or combined surgical and endovascular treatment. It is therefore more important to evaluate the aorta and its complications after interventional treatments. Because multidetector-row computed tomography (MDCT) has advantages, such as short examination time, high spatial resolution, and simple operation, this modality has become a first choice of non-invasive methods for the follow-up of aortic diseases after the intervention. Now the MDCT presentations and their anatomic-pathologic features of aortic dissection after endovascular graft exclusion or combined surgical and endovascular treatment are reviewed in this article.
【Abstract】ObjectiveTo evaluate the main CT features, the morbidity of CT signs and the anatomic-pathologic bases of secondary pyogenic peritonitis (SPP). MethodsTwentyfour patients of the SPP were retrospectively studied. Emphasis was placed on the spiral CT manifestations of the SPP correlating with their anatomic-pathologic bases and the occurrence as well as the signs of primary lesions which resulted in the SPP. ResultsThe main CT manifestations of SPP revealed as follows: the thickened peritoneum, 16 in 24 cases (66.7%), of which 14 cases were smooth and 2 cases were irregular; the ascites, 15 in 24 cases (62.5%); the free air within peritoneal cavity, 9 in 24 cases (37.5%); the edema and thickening involved in the greater omentum, 8 in 24 cases (33.3%); the small bowel mesentery, 5 in 24 cases (20.8%); and the bowels’ wall, 5 in 24 cases (20.8%); the adhesions of bowels, 6 in 24 cases (25.0%). The CT manifestation of the promary lesions, which caused SPP, and the complications were shown as follows: the signs of primary lesion, 13 cases (54.2%); the inflammatory changes in retroperitoneal cavity 13 cases (54.2%); the involvements of chest 13 cases (54.2%); and the abscess in peritoneal and pelvic cavity 6 cases (25.0%). ConclusionThe main significant CT signs of SPP could be concluded as follows: thickened peritoneum, ascites, free air within peritoneal cavity, edematous and thickened greater omentum, the small bowel mesentery, and the bowels’ wall, as well as the adhesions of bowels. So, the CT scan can present plenty of CT signs, which are significant and very helpful for making an appropriate diagnosis of SPP.
【Abstract】Objective To investigate the imaging features of malignant invasion of major intrahepatic ductal structures (the portal and hepatic venous vasculature, the bilie duct) by primary hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) using multidetector-row spiral CT (MDCT). Methods We retrospectively analyzed 68 documented HCC patients with tumorous invasion of the major intrahepatic ductal structures who had undergone contrast-enhanced dual-phase MDCT scanning of the upper abdomen.The morphological changes of the portal and hepatic venous vasculature, the bile duct, and the liver parenchyma at both the hepatic arterial phase and portal venous phase images were carefully observed and recorded. Results Among the 68 patients, 47 patients had malignant invasion of the intrahepatic portal venous vessels with secondary tumor thrombus formation; 12 patients had tumor involvement of the hepatic veins and intraheptic segment of the inferior vena cava; Tumor invasion of the bile duct was seen in 9 patents. The direct CT signs of tumor invasion of intrahepatic venous vessels included: ①dilatation or enlargement of the involved vein with intraluminal softtissue “filling defect”; ②enhancement of the tumor thrombus at hepatic arterial phase, the so-called “venous arterialization” phenomenon. The indirect CT signs included: ①arterial-venous shunt, ②early and heterogeneous enhancement of the hepatic parenchyma adjacent to HCC focus, ③cavernous transformation of the portal vein. The CT signs suggesting tumor invasion of the bile duct included: ①dilation of the bile ducts near or proximal to HCC lesion, ②soft-tissue nodule or mass inside the bile ducts. Conclusion Invasion of major intrahepatic ductal structures by HCC will present corresponding CT imaging features. Contrast-enhanced MDCT dualphase scanning combined with appropriate image postprocessing techniques can better evaluate the malignant invasion of major intrahepatic ductal structures.
目的 探讨小肠扭转的CT影像学表现及多层螺旋CT的诊断价值。 方法 回顾性分析2006年2月-2011年8月14例经手术证实肠扭转患者的临床及影像资料。 结果 14例小肠扭转患者中有9例出现“U形征”,13例有肠管和血管的“漩涡征”,4例有“鸟喙征”,2例可见“靶环征”,1例可见空回肠“转位征”。 结论 肠管及血管的“漩涡征”是诊断小肠扭转的特异性征象,“鸟喙征”、“靶环征”等其他CT征象为小肠扭转的正确诊断提供可靠依据。多层螺旋CT扫描及三维重组对小肠扭转的诊断具有重要价值。
ObjectiveTo assess the value of multi-slice spiral CT (MSCT) in the diagnosis and resectability judgement of hepatic alveolar echinococcosis (HAE). MethodsThe CT findings of 28 patients who were confirmed HAE by surgical pathological examination were retrospectively analyzed. Comparative analysis were made between the CT findings and surgical pathology. ResultsAltogether 45 lesions in hepatic were detected. Lesions mainly revealed an infiltrating tumor-like hepatic mass with irregular margins and heterogeneous contents with varied attenuation, including scattered hyper-attenuating calcifications and hypo-attenuating areas corresponding to necrosis, no substantial enhancement, however, the fibro-inflammatory component surrounding the parasitic tissue was enhanced faintly in the delayed phase, and clearly demarcated from surrounding parenchyma. MSCT angiography (CTA) depicted signs of infiltration of hepatic vessels such as pushed, compression, displacement, stenosis, encasement and interruption. Compared with findings of operation, the sensitivity and specificity value of MSCT for evaluating the hepatic artery system disorders were 67%, 97%; and for portal venous system were 83%, 93%; and for hepatic venous system were 84%, 91%; while for inferior vena cava were 85%, 100%. Twelve cases which were evaluated as resectable by MSCT were in accordance with surgical findings. In the rest 16 patients which were judged as non-resectable by MSCT, only 2 patients were radical treatment through partial excision, repair and reconstruction for the involvement of large vessels and bile ducts. ConclusionMSCT is accuracy in the diagnosis and assessment of vessels complication of HAE. It has an important value to evaluate the resectability of HAE and the planning of treatment.

【Abstract】Objective To investigate the CT manifestations of chronic virus hepatitis B. Methods According to the inclusion and exclusion criteria, the clinical data and laboratory information of 120 patients with chronic virus hepatitis B were reviewed retrospectively. All patients underwent standardized contrast-enhanced spiral CT dual-phase scanning of the upper abdomen. The changes of the liver, bile duct, spleen, portal venous system, lymph node of the upper abdomen, peritoneal cavity and pleural cavity were observed and noted. Results CT manifestations of chronic virus hepatitis B were as follows: ①changes of the configuration and shape of the liver, ② changes of the density of the liver, ③intrahepatic perivascular lucency, ④thickening of gallbladder wall and edema of the gallbladder fossa, ⑤splenomegaly, ⑥enlargement of abdominal lymph nodes, ⑦ascites, ⑧abnormalities related to portal hypertension (collateral circulation), and ⑨secondary thoracic changes (pleural and pericardial effusion). Conclusion Chronic virus hepatitis B can demonstrate several abnormal findings involving the liver, gallbladder, lymph nodes, spleen, etc on contrast-enhanced CT scanning.
