Abstract:
Objective To explore the detective values of various MRI sequences in breast polyacrylamide hydrogel(PAHG) injection for augmentation patients.
Methods A total of 80 patients who have been injected for augmentation and who have suspected breast lesions were subjected to MRI scanning. The MRI scan sequence included T1 weighted imaging(T1WI), T2 weighted imaging(T2WI), short time inversion recovery(STIR), diffusion weighted imaging(DWI) and MR hydrography(MRH), as well as liver acquisition with valume acceleration(LAVA) dynamic contrast-enhanced sequence. The main sequence analysis indicators included the detection rate of breast disease and breast cancer, and to analyze statistically.
Results A total of 86 lesions were observed in 160 breasts. The breast-lesion detection rates of the T1WI, T2WI, STIR, DWI and MRH, as well as LAVA dynamic contrast-enhanced sequence were 32.56%(28/86), 61.11%(53/86), 63.88%(55/86), 41.66%(36/86), 89.53%(77/86), and 100%(86/86), respectively; the breast-cancer detection rates of these sequences were 33.33%(10/30), 66.67%(20/30), 66.67%(20/30), 46.67%(14/30), 100%(30/30), and 100%(30/30), respectively. Each MRI scanning sequence of breast-lesion detection rate of R×C cross-table analysis, χ2=129.428, P < 0.05; the difference was statistically significant. Each MRI scanning sequence of breast-cancer detection rate of R×C cross-table analysis, χ2=51.843, P < 0.05; the difference was statistically significant. Each MRI scanning sequence detection rate of breast disease and breast cancer in the group were compared pairwise. The detection rates of breast lesions were not statistically significant in T1WI and MRH, T2WI and STIR(χ2=1.593, 0.100, both P>0.05), whereas those in the other scanning sequences were statistically significant(χ2=6.729~87.509, all P < 0.05). The differences in breast-cancer detection rates in MRH and T1WI, MRH and T2WI, MRH and STIR, T2WI and STIR, and DWI and LAVA were not statistically significant(χ2=1.111, 2.443, 2.443, 0.000, 0.000, all P>0.05), whereas those of the other sequences were statistically significant(χ2=12.000~30.000, all P < 0.05).
Conclusions The total detection rate of breast lesions with PAHG injection for augmentation mammoplasty by DWI and LAVA-enhanced sequence wasthe highest. Rational use of MRI sequence will help improve the lesion detection rate of patients' breast augmentation PAHG injection and has important clinical value.
