Pulmonary lesions: correlative study of dynamic triple-phase enhanced CT perfusion imaging with tumor angiogenesis and vascular endothelial growth factor expression

Abstract: Background To investigate value of the quantitative perfusion parameters of dynamic triple-phase enhanced CT in differential diagnosis of pulmonary lesions, and explore the correlation between perfusion parameters of lung cancer with microvessel density (MVD) and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF). Methods 73 consecutive patients with lung lesions who successfully underwent pre-operative CT perfusion examination with dynamic triple-phase enh… Show more

“…Currently, studies on the use of enhanced CT features for assessing MSI status in CRC patients have not been reported. Enhanced CT scanning is based on the formation of neovascularization of different tumours resulting in different haemodynamic changes to qualitatively analyse the lesions [ 39 ]. The CT value of the lesions is influenced by various factors, such as patient physiological factors, operator factors, and equipment factors [ 40 ].…”

“…Most researchers now agree that the pulmonary artery generally acts only as a smaller maintenance vessel in lung cancer, whereas the bronchial artery benefits more from a significantly stronger neovascularization capacity than the pulmonary artery and becomes the main blood supply vessel in lung cancer ( 21 ). Bronchial artery blood supply accounts for the vast majority of blood supply in central or larger lung cancers, and bronchial artery blood supply increases as lung cancer grows and proliferates, making it the main source of blood supply in lung cancer ( 22 , 23 ).…”

“…However, the CT perfusion or dynamic enhanced CT examination is time-consuming, and the corresponding diagnostic images are obtained later from the workstation. So even though both CT perfusion and dynamic enhanced CT examination can provide hemodynamic information for the differential diagnosis of early lymphoma from precancerous lesions, they are not performed widely in the daily practice ( 25 ).…”
