The Clinical Significance of CT Combined with MRI Examination in Patients with Lung Cancer Diagnosed by X-ray

Objective To study the application value of CT combined with MRI examination in patients with lung cancer diagnosed by X-ray. Methods A total of 132 cases registered by X-ray as lung cancer in our hospital during June 2010 to September 2010 were selected and diagnosed by CT and MRI. The diagnosis results of CT, MRI and CT combined with MRI were analyzed referred to the pathological diagnosis results. Results The accuracy rate of CT combined with MRI, CT, and MRI alone were respectively 89.4%, 80.0% and 66.7%, the sensitivity were respectively 92.3%, 80.8% and 78.2%, the specificity were respectively 50.0%, 59.3 and 89.2%, and all indexes diagnosed by CT combined with MRI were significantly higher than CT or MRI alone(P0.05 or P0.001). Conclusion The accuracy rate, sensitivity and specificity of CT combined with MRI were highest, and we suggest that it's useful for the suspected lung cancer patients to accepted CT and MRI examination.
