Abstract

Objective: To evaluate the clinical application value of 64-slice spiral CT in the diagnosis of urologic diseases. Methods: Fifty-two cases suspected urinary system diseases were examined with 64-slice spiral CT and 3D reconstruction of urinary tract were performed. Results: Among the 52 cases,there were 1 case with ureteral fistula,12 cases with calculus of ureter,5 cases with carcinoma of ureter,2 cases with double renal pelvis,5 cases with carcinoma of renal pelvis,2 cases with carcinoma of bladder,3 cases with other diseases. 3D photograph showed clearly not only ureteral figure,intraluminal changes of ureter,sites and causes of obstruction,but also walls and extraluminal changes of ureter at the same time. Conclusion: Figures and all kinds of pathological changes about pelvis,ureter and bladder could be observed by 64-slice spiral CT. More diagnostic information could be provided by 3D photographs. 64-slice spiral CT is a kind of efficient imaging examination in the diagnosis of urinary system diseases.
