摘要
目的:评价4DCT检测75岁及以上食管癌患者放疗前后的肺通气功能。方法:纳入31例符合条件的75岁及以上高龄食管癌患者。4DCT扫描图像经过形变配准后进行几何二等分。制定3个肺通气功能分析指标:上下肺通气比值,左右肺通气比值和前后肺通气比值。结果:伴有慢性阻塞性肺疾病(COPD)组与无COPD组的上下肺通气比值差异有统计学意义(P<0.05),前后肺通气比值及左右肺通气比值未见明显差异。在75~80岁组与≥80岁组只发现上下肺通气比值差异有统计学意义(P<0.05)。放疗后在COPD组与无COPD组中发现上下肺通气比值(P<0.05)及前后肺通气比值(P<0.05)均有明显差异。放疗后75~80岁组与≥80岁组的上下肺通气比值有统计学差异(P<0.05)。放疗期间同步化疗组与未同步化疗组在肺通气功能上未见明显差别。结论:应用4DCT扫描可区别放疗前后的肺通气功能变化,为早期临床干预提供可能。
Objective To use four-dimensional computed tomography(4DCT)for evaluating the pulmonary ventilation in esophageal cancer patients aged 75 years and over.Methods Thirty-one esophageal cancer patients aged 75 years and over were enrolled in the study.4DCT images were dichotomized by geometry after deformation.The pulmonary ventilation function was evaluated by 3 indexes,namely superior-inferior pulmonary ventilation ratio,left-right pulmonary ventilation ratio and anterior-posterior pulmonary ventilation ratio.Results There was significant difference between chronic obstructive pulmonary disease(COPD)group and non-COPD group in superior-inferior pulmonary ventilation ratio(P<0.05),but not in anterior-posterior pulmonary ventilation ratio and left-right pulmonary ventilation ratio.Moreover,significant difference was only found in superior-inferior pulmonary ventilation ratio between patients aged 75-80 years and those aged 80 years and over(P<0.05).After radiotherapy,there were significant differences between COPD group and non-COPD group in superiorinferior pulmonary ventilation ratio(P<0.05)and anterior-posterior pulmonary ventilation ratio(P<0.05),and the superiorinferior pulmonary ventilation ratio in patients aged 75-80 years was significantly different from that in those aged 80 years and over(P<0.05).During radiotherapy,the pulmonary ventilation function in chemoradiotherapy group was similar to that in non-concurrent chemotherapy group.Conclusion 4DCT can be used to detect the variations of pulmonary ventilation function before and after radiotherapy,providing the possibility for the early clinical intervention.
