Virtual Bronchoscopy Multislice Computer Tomography in Diagnostics of Neoplastic Lesions of the Tracheabronchial Systems
Abstract
The purpose: to assess the value of techniques of virtual bronchoscopy(VB) in improving the diagnostic information content of multislice computed tomography (MSCT) in the diagnosis and prevalence of neoplastic lesions of the tracheobronchial system (TBS).
Materials and methods. Analyzed the data virtual bronchoscopy multislice computed tomography we have developed methods 87 patients with tumors of TBS.
Results. A comprehensive analysis of native, postprocessing data and volumetric reconstructions was possible to more fully assess the nature of the changes to the topography, the extent and prevalence of neoplastic lesions of the tracheobronchial system. To carry out differential diagnostics of benign and malignant lesions, especially in stenotic lesions, when the execution of bronchofibroscopy was impossible. Signs of malignancy of the tumor had a wide base and destroys the adjacent cartilage structures, a rough bumpy surface, infiltration of the wall of the trachea, bronchus.
Conclusion. WB MSCT optimal method of diagnosis, determining the probabilistic nature of neoplastic lesions of TBS, the prevalence of the process. When stenotic lesions of the trachea, WB MSCT is becoming the method of choice in assessing the extent of the process.
