能谱CT定量参数结合纹理分析鉴别甲状腺良恶性结节及预测颈部淋巴结转移的研究摘要:甲状腺良恶性结节的鉴别一直是临床难点。本研究旨在探讨能谱CT定量参数结合纹理分析对甲状腺结节良恶性的判定及颈部淋巴结转移的预测作用。纳入2016年1月至2018年12月被诊断为甲状腺结节的91例患者,其中恶性结节48例,良性结节43例。采用SiemensDefinitionEdge128排螺旋CT扫描仪进行能谱CT成像,使用Vitrea软件进行分析。通过分析90KeV和40KeV的CT值、良恶性结节的特征纹理参数及颈部淋巴结体积,比较良恶性结节的定量参数差异,利用ROC曲线分析获得最佳诊断指标,建立多因素Logistic回归模型进行预测颈部淋巴结的转移情况。结果显示,40KeV的CT值、灰度共生矩阵对比度、灰度共生矩阵对比度离散度、颈部淋巴结体积等指标在良恶性结节鉴别方面具有显著差异(P<0.05),其中以灰度共生矩阵对比度离散度和体积最为敏感。利用这些参数建立的多因素Logistic回归模型具有较高的诊断准确性,AUC值为0.937。结论:能谱CT定量参数结合纹理分析可有效鉴别甲状腺良恶性结节,并预测颈部淋巴结的转移情况,对于临床的甲状腺结节诊疗具有一定参考价值。
