Diagnostic value of MRI using proton density-weighted fat-saturated sequence for bone marrow edema in osteoarticular injury
Objective To analyze the value of magnetic resonance proton density-weighted fat-saturated(PDWI-FS)sequence in the diagnosis of bone marrow edema(BME)in osteoarticular injury.Methods A total of 150 patients with bone and joint trauma were enrolled in the study.All patients underwent sagittal PDWI-FS sequence scan and conventional MRI sequence scan.The BME detection,signal intensity,image quality,and the signal-to-noise ratio and contrast-to-noise ratio of the lesions were compared between two methods.Results Both methods revealed that there were 225 sites of BME signs in 134 out of the 150 patients,with a higher prevalence in knee joint trauma patients.The signal intensity of the lesions was mainly grade 3 on PDWI-FS sequence and grade 2 on conventional MRI sequence,accounting for 97.78%(220/225)and 43.11%(97/225),indicating that the two methods graded signal intensity differently(Z=15.919,P<0.05).PDWI-FS sequence and conventional sequence had scores of 4.09±0.45 vs 3.88±0.39,3.65±0.42 vs 3.41±0.36,3.25±0.37 vs 3.14±0.35 and 4.21±0.38 vs 3.97±0.34 on lesion clarity,spatial resolution,anamorphosis and diagnostic confidence,and the former scored higher(t=4.319,5.314,2.645,5.765;P<0.05).The signal-to-noise ratio and contrast-to-noise ratio of the lesions on PDWI-FS sequence were 2.07±0.23 and 5.52±0.64,higher than 2.01±0.22 and 5.17±0.59 on conventional sequence,and the differences were statistically significant(t=2.309,4.925;P<0.05).Conclusion Compared with conventional MRI sequence,magnetic resonance PDWI-FS sequence can effectively enhance image quality and display lesions more clearly,providing more accurate information for the diagnosis of BME in osteoarticular injury.
