To investigate the clinical value of multi-slice spiral computed tomography (CT) angiography (MSCTA) combined with MRI in the diagnosis of cerebral aneurysm. A total of 90 patients with cerebral aneurysms diagnosed by DSA were selected as the subjects of this study. Another 30 patients with cerebral infarction were selected as negative controls (NC). Before diagnosis, all patients underwent comprehensive examination using MSCTA and MRI. The results of the comparison and the clinical data of all patients were retrospectively analyzed. MSCTA and MRI examinations can clearly show the specific location, shape, size and anatomical relationship with surrounding tissues of cerebral aneurysms. MSCTA diagnosed 82 patients and missed or misdiagnosed 8 patients in the 90 patients with cerebral aneurysm. The diagnostic sensitivity and accuracy of MSCTA were 91.1 (82/90) and 89.2 (107/120), respectively. MRI examination diagnosed 87 patients and missed or misdiagnosed 3 patients in the 90 patients with cerebral aneurysm. The diagnostic sensitivity and accuracy of MRI were 96.7 (87/90) and 96.7 (116/120), respectively. The sensitivity and accuracy of MSCTA combined with MRI were 100.0 (90/90) and 99.2 (119/120), respectively. MSCTA combined with MRI can not only display the whole picture of brain tissue, but also display the size, shape and relationship with the parent vessel of the aneurysm. The combination of MSCTA and MRI has high sensitivity and accuracy in diagnosing intracranial aneurysms, which provides a promising diagnostic protocol for patients with aneurysms. |
