Diagnostic Value of HRMRI Combined with IVIEM-DWI on Extramural Vascular Invasion of Rectal Cancer
Objective To explore the diagnostic value of high-resolution magnetic resonance imaging(HRMRI)combined with intravoxel incoherent motion diffusion weighted imaging(IVIEM-DWI)on extramural vascular invasion(EMVI)of rectal cancer.Methods 82 patients with rectal cancer admitted to our hospital from May 2020 to May 2023 were selected.HRMRI combined with IVIM-DWI were performed before surgery.According to the postoperative pathological examination results,the EMVI score of patients was observed,and the patients were divided into EMVI group and non-EMVI group.The differences in IVIIM-DWI parameters[fast diffusion coefficient(D*)and perfusion fraction(f)]were compared between the two groups,and the diagnostic value of HRMRI and IVlim-DWI alone and combined application on EMVI was analyzed.Results Among 82 patients with rectal cancer,there were 19 cases(23.17%)with EMVI score of 3 points and 13 cases(15.85%)with EMVI score of 4 points.Postoperative pathological results showed that 37 cases(45.12%)of 82 patients with rectal cancer had EMVI,and the D*and f in EMVI group were higher than those in non-EMVI group(P<0.05).There were 32 cases(39.02%)and 41 cases(50.00%)of EMVI positive patients diagnosed by HRMRI and IVIM-DWI alone,and there were 48 cases(58.54%)of EMVI positive patients diagnosed by combined application.The sensitivities of HRMRI and IVIM-DWI in the diagnosis of EMVI were 67.56%and 75.68%and the specificities were 84.44%and 71.11%respectively.The sensitivity and specificity of combined diagnosis were 91.89%and 68.88%respectively.Kappa consistency analysis showed that the kappa values of HRMRI,IVIEM-DWI alone and combined application in diagnosing EMVI were 0.526,0.463 and 0.592 respectively.Conclusion Both HRMRI and IVIEM-DWI have certain diagnostic value in the diagnosis of EMVI in patients with rectal cancer,and the combined application of the two has higher diagnostic efficiency.
