ABSTRACT
Objective:
This study aimed to assess the clinical efficacy of combining multi-slice spiral CT with gastrointestinal angiography for diagnosing gastric cancer.Methods:
We conducted a retrospective analysis of clinical data from 151 patients with suspected gastric cancer admitted to our hospital between January 2014 and January 2022. Among them, 70 patients underwent multi-slice spiral CT alone (control group), while the remaining 81 patients underwent multi-slice spiral CT in combination with gastrointestinal barium contrast (combination group). Finally, pathological examination confirmed gastric cancer in 81 patients. We analyzed the diagnostic efficacy of multi-slice spiral CT combined with gastrointestinal angiography for staging gastric cancer and detecting lymph node metastasis.Results:
The sensitivity and accuracy of diagnosing gastric cancer using multi-slice spiral CT combined with gastrointestinal angiography were significantly superior to CT alone (P < .05). This combined approach exhibited substantial advancements in detecting stage I and II tumors compared to a single CT, although the difference in stage III detection rate was marginal (P < .05). Furthermore, among the 81 gastric cancer cases, 67 were confirmed to have lymph node metastasis through surgical and pathological examination. The lymph node detection rate with multi-slice spiral CT combined with gastrointestinal angiography was significantly higher than that achieved with single CT (P < .05).Conclusions:
Combining multi-slice spiral CT with gastrointestinal angiography proved to be an effective diagnostic strategy for gastric cancer.
