The most widely used ultrasound in BT planning does not exclude a subjective assessment of the boundaries of the tumor and organs at risk, as well as the inaccuracies caused by endostatic devices. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) provides a high level of achievement of the criteria necessary for BT planning, but it has financial constraints and the need for individual selection of research conditions. Computed tomography (CT) is the most effective technique for visualizing the tumor, endostatic devices, and organs at risk for BT 3D planning. The involvement of MRI and positron emission tomography with CT in BT planning is a promising area that requires equipping with a mathematical tool for double and triple contouring of the tumor and organs at risk and for defining protection priorities. The prescribed and used focal dose should be controlled by direct dosimetry methods to ensure quality assurance.","PeriodicalId":34090,"journal":{"name":"Vestnik rentgenologii i radiologii","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-11-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46547776","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We performed the modeling and obtained the results of the pharmacoeconomic study: effectiveness analysis, cost analysis, and cost-effectiveness analysis. The cost analysis included only direct medical costs (the cost of contrast-enhanced CT, gadolinium-based contrast agent (GBCA) for MRI, and therapy per a patient with verified HCC diagnosis after diagnostic procedures). The financing was performed from the Compulsary Health Insurance Fund. The calculations were made per 1 patient.Results. The effectiveness analysis showed that the diagnostic scheme CT + MRI with gadoxetic acid was the most effective complex for the diagnosis of HCC because its application provided 50% of patients with 5-year overall survival (4.8 years), which was significantly higher than in patients who were diagnosed HCC with CT + MRI with extracellular GBCA (2.3 years) or CT (3.7 years). The cost-effectiveness analysis showed that the diagnostic scheme with gadoxetic acid was dominant because each disability-adjusted life year required fewer costs (14 862 rubles) in comparison with CT + MRI with extracellular GBCA (25 293 rubles) or CT (46 540 rubles). According to the results of the incremental cost-effectiveness ratio analysis, the application of the diagnostic complex with gadoxetic acid was characterized by the lowest rate of additional costs per 1 disability-adjusted life year.Conclusion. The pharmacoeconomic study showed that the application of MRI with a hepatospecific contrasting agent – gadoxetic acid in addition to contrast-enhanced CT was an effective and economically beneficial method of early HCC diagnosis.","PeriodicalId":34090,"journal":{"name":"Vestnik rentgenologii i radiologii","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-11-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45897756","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A total of 116 patients with viral hepatitis (VH) B, C and B + C were examined on the basis of Clinical hospital No. 1 (Smolensk): 75 (64.7%) men and 41 (35.3%) women, mean age 49.7 ± 2.3 years. The patients underwent instrumental diagnostic methods: ultrasound, clinical elastography, contrast-free hepatic ASL MR perfusion. Liver biopsy (n = 57) was used as the reference method.Results. The results of ASL MR perfusion had a high correlation with the data of clinical elastography in the diagnosis of fibrotic process; the diagnostic and prognostic significance of ASL liver perfusion in the diagnosis of fibrotic process was: AUROC 0.943 (95% CI, 0.884–0.953). There was a high correlation between ASL MR perfusion with Doppler ultrasound of hepatic blood vessels in the diagnosis of arterial blood flow disorders, but in VH В + C and cirrhosis – diagnostic and prognostic significance of the method: AUROC 0.951 (95% CI 0.932–0.972).Conclusion. ASL MR perfusion in VH patients allows to predict fibrotic changes in the hepatic parenchyma (AUROC 0.934 (95% CI 0.845–0.957)), provides information about changes in blood flow in the parenchymal structure (p < 0.005).

Chest CT scans and anamnestic data in patients hospitalized to a non-specialized center repurposed for the treatment of new coronavirus infection, were analyzed. Chest CT analysis was performed by two radiologists using CT 0–4 and CT-SS scales.Results. The time course of changes in the severity of lung parenchymal lesions, by using both scales, was found to be similar: the maximum magnitude of lung tissue changes was recorded on day 5 of the disease. In cases of death, there was a significantly more extensive lung parenchymal involvement at admission to the center than in recovered patients, which was also true for both CT data assessment systems. Bothscales demonstrated comparable diagnostic and prognostic value: there were no statistically significant differences in sensitivity, specificity, and predictive value of a fatal outcome. Both the CT 0–4 scales and the CT-SS are based on the estimation of the volume of the affected lung tissue, but when the CT 0–4 scale was employed, additional criteria were used in some cases: the presence of hydrothorax and the determination of the maximum score for the most affected lung. Not all patients with a pronounced CT picture of viral pneumonia had a fatal outcome, which may indicate the presence of other factors that increase its risk.Conclusion. Both CT 0–4 and CT-SS scales have similar predictive values. The greater severity of parenchymal damage assessed by these CT scales was associated with the higher mortality rate.","PeriodicalId":34090,"journal":{"name":"Vestnik rentgenologii i radiologii","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-11-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"67729381","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

From September 2018 to March 2019, the retrospective study included a total of 187 patients (64 (34.2%) females and 123 (65.8%) males) diagnosed with CUP. The patients’ mean age was 61.9 ± 7.5 years. Before PET/CT, all the patients underwent puncture biopsy of at least one metastatic lesion, which histologically verified the malignant nature of the neoplasm. A number of conventional studies were also performed as part of an oncosearch to identify the nature of a primary cancer lesion.Results. Biopsy of lymph node metastases in 187 patients included in the study showed the following distribution according to the histological types of the tumor: 87 (46.5%) patients were diagnosed with squamous cell carcinoma, 15 (8%) with melanoma, 45 (24.1%) with undifferentiated carcinoma, 23 (12.3%) with adenocarcinoma, 17 (9.1%) with undifferentiated malignant neoplasm. The examination could identify a primary tumor site in 93 (49.7%) patients; no primary source was found in 94 (50.3%) patients. After PET/CT, there were no significant differences in the age of patients with and without CUP. PET/CT revealed new, previously undetected metastatic lesions in 93 cases, accounting for 49.7% of the entire sample. It is worth noting that after PET/CT, a change in the stage of tumor development tool place in 131 (70.1%) cases, which was associated with both the detection of the primary tumor and the identification of new metastatic lesions. The stage change was significantly more frequently observed in patients with detected CUP than in those with undetected CUP (100% vs. 40.4%; p < 0.001).Conclusion. PET/CT can more accurately determine the stage of cancer in a large proportion of patients with CUP. The technique is able to identify the primary tumor in a significant number of cases, which in turn affects treatment policy and prognosis in these patients. The use of PET/CT should be obligatorily included in the examination protocol for patients with CUP.","PeriodicalId":34090,"journal":{"name":"Vestnik rentgenologii i radiologii","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-09-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46513044","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
