Application value of color doppler ultrasound and ultrasound contrast in the differential diagnosis of ovarian tumor

Abstract

Objective: To study the value of color Doppler ultrasound and ultrasound contrast in differential diagnosis of ovarian tumors. Methods: Ninety-six patients with ovarian tumors who were treated in our hospital from May 2017 to July 2018 and confirmed by pathological examination were selected as the research subjects. All patients were examined by color Doppler ultrasound and ultrasound contrast. The sensitivity, specificity and accuracy of the two methods were compared, and the parameters of ultrasound contrast in the diagnosis of benign and malignant tumors were observed and compared. Results: The sensitivity, specificity and accuracy of ultrasound contrast in the diagnosis of ovarian tumors were higher than those of color Doppler ultrasound (P<0.05). There were significant differences in the time of initiation enhancement, time to peak and perfusion intensity in the diagnosis of benign and malignant lesions by ultrasound contrast (P<0.05). Conclusion: In the differential diagnosis of ovarian tumors, ultrasound contrast has more advantages than color Doppler ultrasound in displaying the blood perfusion information of tumors. It has high diagnostic accuracy and clinical application value. doi: https://doi.org/10.12669/pjms.36.2.847 How to cite this:Zhang H, Wang J, Guo R.
