Abstract

OBJECTIVES

To prospectively compare the diagnostic performance of reduced-dose (RD) contrast-enhanced CT (CECT) with standard-dose (SD) CECT for detection of low-contrast liver lesions.

METHODS

Seventy adults with non-liver primary malignancies underwent abdominal SD-CECT immediately followed by RD-CECT, aggressively targeted at 60-70 % dose reduction. SD series were reconstructed using FBP. RD series were reconstructed with FBP, ASIR, and MBIR (Veo). Three readers-blinded to clinical history and comparison studies-reviewed all series, identifying liver lesions ≥4 mm. Non-blinded review by two experienced abdominal radiologists-assessing SD against available clinical and radiologic information-established the reference standard.

RESULTS

RD-CECT mean effective dose was 2.01 ± 1.36 mSv (median, 1.71), a 64.1 ± 8.8 % reduction. Pooled per-patient performance data were (sensitivity/specificity/PPV/NPV/accuracy) 0.91/0.78/0.60/0.96/0.81 for SD-FBP compared with RD-FBP 0.79/0.75/0.54/0.91/0.76; RD-ASIR 0.84/0.75/0.56/0.93/0.78; and RD-MBIR 0.84/0.68/0.49/0.92/0.72. ROC AUC values were 0.896/0.834/0.858/0.854 for SD-FBP/RD-FBP/RD-ASIR/RD-MBIR, respectively. RD-FBP (P = 0.002) and RD-MBIR (P = 0.032) AUCs were significantly lower than those of SD-FBP; RD-ASIR was not (P = 0.052). Reader confidence was lower for all RD series (P < 0.001) compared with SD-FBP, especially when calling patients entirely negative.

CONCLUSIONS

Aggressive CT dose reduction resulted in inferior diagnostic performance and reader confidence for detection of low-contrast liver lesions compared to SD. Relative to RD-ASIR, RD-FBP showed decreased sensitivity and RD-MBIR showed decreased specificity.

KEY POINTS

• Reduced-dose CECT demonstrates inferior diagnostic performance for detecting low-contrast liver lesions. • Reader confidence is lower with reduced-dose CECT compared to standard-dose CECT. • Overly aggressive dose reduction may result in misdiagnosis, regardless of reconstruction algorithm. • Careful consideration of perceived risks versus benefits of dose reduction is crucial.

摘要

目的

前瞻性比较低剂量（RD）对比增强CT（CECT）与标准剂量（SD）CECT检测肝脏低对比度病变的诊断性能。

方法

70例非肝脏原发性恶性肿瘤的成人患者先接受腹部SD-CECT检查，随后立即进行RD-CECT检查，积极将剂量降低60-70%。SD系列采用滤波反投影（FBP）重建。RD系列分别采用FBP、自适应统计迭代重建（ASIR）和基于模型的迭代重建（MBIR，Veo）进行重建。三位对临床病史和对比研究不知情的阅片者对所有系列进行阅片，识别直径≥4mm的肝脏病变。由两位经验丰富的腹部放射科医生根据现有临床和影像学信息对SD系列进行非盲法评估，以此确立参考标准。

结果

RD-CECT的平均有效剂量为2.01±1.36mSv（中位数为1.71），降低了64.1±8.8%。每位患者的汇总性能数据（灵敏度/特异度/阳性预测值/阴性预测值/准确度），SD-FBP为0.91/0.78/0.60/0.96/0.81，而RD-FBP为0.79/0.75/0.54/0.91/0.76；RD-ASIR为0.84/0.75/0.56/0.93/0.78；RD-MBIR为0.84/0.68/0.49/0.92/0.72。SD-FBP/RD-FBP/RD-ASIR/RD-MBIR的ROC曲线下面积（AUC）值分别为0.896/0.834/0.858/0.854。RD-FBP（P=0.002）和RD-MBIR（P=0.032）的AUC显著低于SD-FBP；RD-ASIR则不然（P=0.052）。与SD-FBP相比，所有RD系列的阅片者信心均较低（P<0.001），尤其是在判定患者完全为阴性时。

结论

与SD相比，积极降低CT剂量导致检测肝脏低对比度病变的诊断性能和阅片者信心下降。相对于RD-ASIR，RD-FBP的灵敏度降低，RD-MBIR的特异度降低。

关键点

• 低剂量CECT在检测肝脏低对比度病变方面显示出较差的诊断性能。

• 与标准剂量CECT相比，低剂量CECT的阅片者信心较低。

• 无论采用何种重建算法，过度积极地降低剂量可能导致误诊。

• 仔细权衡降低剂量所感知的风险与益处至关重要。
