Diagnostic Value of Low-dose Dual-energy CT and MRI in Anterior Cruciate Ligament Injury
Objective To analyze the diagnostic value of low-dose dual-energy CT and MRI in anterior cruciate ligament(ACL)injury.Methods A total of 92 patients with ACL injury in the hospital were enrolled between January 2022 and June 2023.The clinical manifestations and imaging characteristics were analyzed.Results Among the 92 patients,clinical diagnosis showed that there were 53 cases with ACL injury and 39 cases with ACL cysts.The sensitivity,sensitivity,positive predictive value,negative predictive value,accuracy and kappa values of low-dose dual-energy CT,MRI and combined detection were[94.34%,74.36%,83.33%,90.63%,85.87%(79/92),0.704],(96.23%,87.17%,91.07%,94.44%,92.39%,0.843)and(98.11%,92.31%,94.55%,97.30%,95.65%,0.910),respectively.Conclusion The diagnostic sensitivity,specificity and accuracy of combined detection are higher than that of MRI and low-dose dual-energy CT alone.Both low-dose dual-energy CT and MRI have high sensitivity in the diagnosis of ACL injury,and they can be mutually alternate.
