[Application of narrow band imaging in laryngeal tumor].

ABSTRACT

Objective:To explore the application of narrow band imaging(NBI) technology in laryngeal tumor.Method:From Appril 2014 to Otober 2016, three hundred and twenty-two patients with suspected laryngeal cancer or precancerous lesions were enrolled in the First Central Hospital of Tianjin. Each patient was examined by electronic nasopharyngolaryngoscope under white light and NBI model. The sensitivity, specificity and accuracy of laryngeal tumor diagnosis under white light mode and NBI mode was compared based on pathological results. Result:The sensitivity, specificity and accuracy of white light mode in laryngeal tumor diagnosis were 77.17%,62.07% and 74.36%, respectively whereas the NBI model were 92.91%,77.59% and 90.06%, respectively.The sensitivity and accuracy of NBI model in laryngeal tumor diagnosis were significantly higer than white light model(P<0.05),but not the specificity. Conclusion:The electronic nasopharyngolaryngoscope of NBI technology not only found early lesions of laryngeal cancer, but also can improve the sensitivity and accuracy of laryngeal tumor diagnosis.
