Abstract

Abstract : Objective . To clarify the application value of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) combined with multislice spiral computed tomography (MSCT) in the diagnosis and staging of colon carcinoma (CC). Methods . A total of 103 patients with histopathologically diagnosed CC were enrolled. Patient clinical and imaging data were collected, and MRI and MSCT images were analyzed to assess the accuracy of MRI, MSCT, and their combination in diagnosing tumor (T) staging of CC. Results . Among the 103 cases of histopathologically diagnosed CC, 26 cases (25.24) were in stage T1-2, 72 cases (69.90) were in stage T3, and 5 cases (4.85) were in stage T4. The accuracy of MRI in diagnosing stage T1-2, T3, and T4 was 80.77%, 88.89%, and 60.00%, respectively, with an average of 76.55%. The accuracy rates of MSCT in diagnosing T1-2, T3, and T4 stages were 73.08%, 90.27%, and 60.00%, respectively, with an average of 74.45%. The accuracy rates of MRI+MSCT in diagnosing T1-2, T3, and T4 were 88.46%, 95.83%, and 80.00%, respectively, with an average of 88.10%. Conclusions . Compared with single use of MRI or MSCT, MRI+MSCT provides accurate imaging data with higher accuracy, which is more helpful for the T-staging evaluation of CC.
