Abstract:
Objective:To investigate the clinical application value of the Mo-targeted X-ray examination, color Doppler ultrasound and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in the diagnosis and preoperative comprehensive evaluation of breast cancer. Methods:Among 170 breast cancer patients, they underwent Mo-targeted X-ray examination, color Doppler ultrasound and MRI before surgery to evaluate the lesions in breast, axillary lymph nodes and the availability of breast-conserving surgery. Results:The detection rates using color Doppler ultrasound examination and MRI were higher than that in the Mo-targeted X-ray examination, which were 90%, 94% and 82%, respectively (P < 0.01 or 0.05). With the result of pathological examination as the golden criteria, we found that specificities of Mo-targeted X-ray examination, color Doppler ultrasound examination and MRI in evaluating the metastasis in axillary lymph nodes were similar (85.11%, 77.66% and 79.79%; P > 0.05). Before surgery, the sensitivities and accuracies of the color Doppler ultrasound examination and MRI were higher than those using the Mo-targeted X-ray examination, which were 73.21%, 82.14%, and 28.57%, 76.00%, 80.67% and 64.00% (P < 0.01 or 0.05). Before surgery, the accuracy rate of MRI in evaluating the breast-conserving surgery was higher than those of Mo-targeted X-ray examination and color Doppler ultrasound (92.00%, 83.33% and 84.67%; P < 0.05). Conclusion:Combined application of Mo-targeted X-ray examination, color Doppler ultrasound and MRI shows a higher accuracy in diagnosis of breast cancer and evaluation of axillary lymph node metastasis, which is conducive to the selection of surgical methods.
