Evaluation of MSCTA for the liver transplantation

Objective:To evaluate application of MSCTA in liver transplantation.Methods:32 patients with liver transplantation were performed MSCT(multi-slice CT scanning) including 10 cases of liver cancer and 22 cases of cirrhosis with Child-Pugh C stage.In hepatic artery and portal phase vascular 3D imaging reconstruction methods include MPR,MIP,VR.MIP images were measured abdominal celiac(CA),left gastric artery(LGA),common hepatic artery(CHA),proper hepatic artery(PHA),the superior mesenteric artery(SMA) and portal vein(PV),splenic vein(SV),superior mesenteric vein(SMV) in diameter.SSPS10.0 with data processing,information using mean ± standard deviation(±S) that the two groups were compared using a t-test;multiple comparison with the single-factor analysis of variance(ANOVA),compared with 2 q test.P0.05 was statistically significant.Results:Hepatic caocinoma and liver cirrhosis were daignoses using MSCT.Hepatic arterial vascular imaging scan can show clearly within the scope of the abdominal aorta,gastroduodenal artery,hepatic artery,the left hepatic,celiac trunk and its branches.11 cases in the hepatic disease group and 6 cases in the control group were seen hepatic atrery malformation.In portal vascular imaging clearly showed that the portal vein system.MIP can use accurate measurement of vascular diameter,abdominal aorta and portal,superior mesenteric vein and splenic vein diameter.Control group with liver cirrhosis and liver cancer artery diameter no significant difference in patients with portal hypertension and the portal vein,mesenteric vein and splenic vein diameter compared with the control group,the difference was statistically significant(P0.05).Conclusion:MSCTA can shown the liver artery and portal vein system by the non-invasive method of checking,Joint MIP and VR application can provide more clinical liver transplant before the hepatic artery and portal vein of information,liver transplantation arteriovenous anastomoses provide the monitoring of vascular diameter and vascular complications.
