ABSTRACT

Objective To investigate the clinical value of multi-slice spiral CT in the evaluation of esophageal variceal bleeding .Methods 50 cirrhosis patients with esophageal varices received multi-slice spiral CT and gastroscopy detection .The application value of multi-slice CT in the assessment of esophageal bleeding was evaluated according to the results of gastroscopy detection .Results CT angiography score had significantly positive correlation with the severity of endoscopic varices and endoscopic red color sign (r=0.762,0.687,all P<0.01).The sensitivity and specificity of CT angiography score in diagnosis of endoscopic red signs RC 3 were 76.92% and 92.50%. Conclusion The results of multi-slice CT and gastroscopy are positively correlated with the severity of esophageal varices,which can be used to predict the risk of esophageal bleeding .
