Diagnostic Significance of Dual-energy Imaging of Musculoskeletal Ultrasound And Shuang Yuan CT in Gouty Arthritis
Objective:To Objective To explore the diagnostic effect of musculoskeletal ultrasound and Shuang Yuan CT dual-energy imaging(DECT)in gouty arthritis.Methods:100 patients with gouty arthritis admitted to the Af-filiated Hospital of Inner Mongolia Medical University from January 2023 to January 2024 were analyzed retrospec-tively.All patients underwent musculoskeletal ultrasound and DECT examination,and the diagnostic effects of the two examinations were compared and analyzed.Results:Among 100 patients,83 cases were diagnosed as gouty ar-thritis by musculoskeletal ultrasound,the diagnostic accuracy was 83.00%,the sensitivity was 81.81%,and the specificity was 84.44%.By DECT,91 cases of gouty arthritis were diagnosed with 91.00%accuracy,90.00%sensi-tivity and 92.50%specificity.The accuracy,sensitivity and specificity of DECT and musculoskeletal ultrasound in the diagnosis of gouty arthritis were compared,P>0.05,but DECT was slightly higher than musculoskeletal ultra-sound.Conclusion:The advantages of DECT in the diagnosis of gouty arthritis are more obvious than that of muscu-loskeletal ultrasound,and its diagnostic value is higher.
