[Abstract] Objective To evaluate the false enhancement characteristics of simple renal cyst on energy spectrum CT scan. Methods The patients with simple renal cyst who were treated with energy spectrum CT and MRI scans in our hospital from January 2019 to January 2020 were reviewed.GSI Viewer analysis software was used for image processing,and the effects of renal cyst diameter,CT value,location and renal parenchyma density on false enhancement were measured. Results Ninety patients with renal cysts were enrolled in this study.A total of 122 cysts with diameters greater than 1 cm were detected.The incidence of false enhancement was significantly higher in cysts 1-2 cm in diameter than in cysts 2-3 cm in diameter (53%,36/68 vs. 15%,4/26,χ2=10.852,P=0.001).The incidence of false enhancement of cysts was significantly higher in patients with renal parenchymal density >200 HU than in patients with renal parenchymal density ≤200 HU (50%,30/60 vs.17%,10/62,χ2=15.874,P=0.000<0.05).The incidence of false enhancement in renal cysts was significantly higher than that in peripheral cysts (43%,28/65 vs. 21%,12/57,χ2=6.685,P=0.010). The cyst size and renal parenchyma density after enhancement were risk factors for false enhancement. Conclusion Patients with the smaller cyst diameter and higher renal parenchyma density around the cyst should be on the alert for false enhancement to avoid misdiagnosis.

在我國(guó),腎囊腫是常見(jiàn)的腎臟良性病變,50歲以上成人其發(fā)病率高達(dá)50%[1-2]。單純性腎囊腫無(wú)需干預(yù)及長(zhǎng)期隨訪。CT增強(qiáng)掃描是臨床上診斷良性腎囊腫的主要方法。理論上單純腎囊腫邊緣清晰、外形規(guī)則、水樣密度,無(wú)強(qiáng)化[3]。而部分單純腎囊腫CT增強(qiáng)掃描后其CT值出現(xiàn)不同程度的增加,超過(guò)10 HU以上,這就是腎囊腫的假?gòu)?qiáng)化現(xiàn)象。假?gòu)?qiáng)化現(xiàn)象與容積效應(yīng)、X線硬化、CT影像重建算法、解剖變異以及囊腫周圍腎組織干擾等因素有關(guān)[3-5]。直徑不超過(guò)2 cm的腎內(nèi)小囊腫由于假?gòu)?qiáng)化現(xiàn)象的存在,使其與缺乏血供的腎內(nèi)腫瘤鑒別困難,導(dǎo)致不必要的影像檢查或長(zhǎng)期隨訪[6]。能譜CT可以提供病變有無(wú)強(qiáng)化的確切信息,有助于克服假?gòu)?qiáng)化現(xiàn)象,然而針對(duì)這一問(wèn)題尚缺乏充分的臨床研究證實(shí)。因此,本研究探討能譜CT掃描模式下腎臟囊腫大小、位置等參數(shù)與假?gòu)?qiáng)化的關(guān)系,進(jìn)一步評(píng)估能譜CT在克服假?gòu)?qiáng)化方面的效果。

1.1一般資料
收集2019年1月至2020年1月在我院放射科接受能譜CT增強(qiáng)掃描的單純性腎囊腫(Bosniak I型)患者。納入標(biāo)準(zhǔn):年齡>18歲的成年患者接受腹部CT增強(qiáng)掃描;核磁共振檢查支持單純性囊腫診斷;核磁和CT掃描時(shí)間間隔3個(gè)月以內(nèi)[5-7]。排除標(biāo)準(zhǔn):腎臟周圍偽影嚴(yán)重影響囊腫測(cè)量;患者失訪;隨訪過(guò)程中腎囊腫直徑增大或密度增強(qiáng)不支持單純囊腫診斷[8]。
