Severe acute pancreatitis is associated with peripancreatic morphologic changes as seen on imaging. Uniform communication regarding these morphologic findings is crucial for accurate diagnosis and treatment. For the original 1992 Atlanta classification, interobserver agreement is poor. We hypothesized that for the revised Atlanta classification, interobserver agreement will be better.
An international, interobserver agreement study was performed among expert and nonexpert radiologists (n = 14), surgeons (n = 15), and gastroenterologists (n = 8). Representative computed tomographies of all stages of acute pancreatitis were selected from 55 patients and were assessed according to the revised Atlanta classification. The interobserver agreement was calculated among all reviewers and subgroups, that is, expert and nonexpert reviewers; interobserver agreement was defined as poor (≤0.20), fair (0.21-0.40), moderate (0.41-0.60), good (0.61-0.80), or very good (0.81-1.00).
Interobserver agreement among all reviewers was good (0.75 [standard deviation, 0.21]) for describing the type of acute pancreatitis and good (0.62 [standard deviation, 0.19]) for the type of peripancreatic collection. Expert radiologists showed the best and nonexpert clinicians the lowest interobserver agreement.
Interobserver agreement was good for the revised Atlanta classification, supporting the importance for widespread adaption of this revised classification for clinical and research communications.
重症急性胰腺炎与影像学上所见的胰腺周围形态学改变相关。就这些形态学发现进行统一沟通对于准确诊断和治疗至关重要。对于1992年最初的亚特兰大分类,观察者间的一致性较差。我们假设对于修订后的亚特兰大分类,观察者间的一致性会更好。
在专家和非专家放射科医生(n = 14)、外科医生(n = 15)和胃肠病学家(n = 8)之间进行了一项国际观察者间一致性研究。从55例患者中选取了急性胰腺炎各阶段具有代表性的计算机断层扫描图像,并根据修订后的亚特兰大分类进行评估。计算所有评审人员及亚组(即专家和非专家评审人员)之间的观察者间一致性;观察者间一致性被定义为差(≤0.20)、一般(0.21 - 0.40)、中等(0.41 - 0.60)、良好(0.61 - 0.80)或非常好(0.81 - 1.00)。
在描述急性胰腺炎类型方面,所有评审人员之间的观察者间一致性良好(0.75[标准差,0.21]),在胰腺周围积液类型方面一致性也良好(0.62[标准差,0.19])。专家放射科医生的观察者间一致性最佳,而非专家临床医生的一致性最低。
对于修订后的亚特兰大分类,观察者间一致性良好,这支持了广泛采用这一修订分类用于临床和研究沟通的重要性。
