超声造影提高O-RADS 4~5类附件肿块诊断准确性的多中心回顾性研究

Contrast-enhanced ultrasound enhances the diagnostic accuracy in O-RADS 4-5 adnexal masses:a multicenter and retrospective study

  • 摘要: 目的 探讨超声造影(CEUS)对卵巢-附件报告和数据系统(O-RDAS)4~5类卵巢-附件肿块诊断效能的影响。方法 回顾性纳入2021年4月至2023年8月期间在10家医院就诊的224例卵巢-附件肿块患者,对其超声形态特点及造影特征进行分析,并以病理结果为金标准,评估O-RADS、CEUS、CEUS联合O-RADS对O-RADS 4~5类病灶的诊断效能。结果 224例患者共232个附件病灶纳入本研究,其中良性132个、恶性100个。O-RADS特征分析中,肿块的病变类型、血流评分、是否存在腹水在单因素分析中均与恶性相关(P < 0.001)。良恶性肿块的CEUS表现各不相同,超声造影特征(增强形态、开始增强时间、增强水平、廓清模式)及相对造影参数(到达时间、达峰时间、峰值强度、增强曲线下面积)在良恶性肿块组间比较差异均有统计学意义(均P < 0.001)。此外,O-RADS分类、CEUS、CEUS联合O-RADS诊断O-RADS 4~5类附件肿块良恶性的AUC(95%CI)分别为0.716(0.654,0.773)、0.793(0.735,0.843)、0.858(0.806,0.900),CEUS联合O-RADS诊断附件肿块良恶性的准确性高于O-RADS分类、CEUS(均P < 0.001)。结论 CEUS联合O-RADS可提高O-RADS 4~5类病变的诊断效能,可为该类患者临床管理方式的选择提供更多有效信息。

     

    Abstract: Objective To evaluate the impact of contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) on the diagnostic performance of ovarian-adnexal reporting and data system (O-RADS) 4-5 adnexal lesions. Methods A total of 224 patients with ovarian-adnexal lesions admitted to 10 hospitals between April 2021 and August 2023 were retrospectively enrolled. Sonographic characteristics and contrast-enhanced features were analyzed. The diagnostic performance of O-RADS, CEUS, and CEUS combined with O-RADS for O-RADS 4-5 lesions was evaluated using histopathology as the gold standard. Results A total of 232 lesions from 224 patients were included in this study, comprising 132 benign and 100 malignant lesions. O-RADS feature analysis revealed that lesion type, blood flow score, and presence of ascites were all significantly associated with malignancy in univariate analysis (all P < 0.001). The CEUS manifestations of benign and malignant masses were distinct. The contrast-enhanced ultrasound features (enhancement morphology, time to initial enhancement, enhancement level, and washout pattern) and relative contrast parameters (arrival time,time to peak, peak intensity and area under the curve) showed statistically significant differences between the benign and malignant mass groups (all P < 0.001). The AUC (95%CI) for differentiating benign from malignant adnexal masses in O-RADS categories 4-5 using O-RADS, CEUS, and the combination of CEUS and O-RADS was 0.716 (0.654, 0.773), 0.793 (0.735, 0.843), and 0.858 (0.806, 0.900), respectively. The diagnostic accuracy of CEUS combined with O-RADS for O-RADS 4-5 lesions was significantly higher compared to either method alone (both P < 0.001). Conclusion The combination of CEUS and O-RADS can improve diagnostic accuracy for O-RADS 4-5 lesions, providing additional valuable information to guide clinical management strategies in patients with such lesions.
