煤工尘肺患者多层螺旋计算机体层成像影像特征OA北大核心CSTPCD

[Background]Multi-slice spiral computerized tomography(MSCT)can be used as an auxiliary di-agnosis of chest radiography in diagnosis of pneumoconiosis,but there are few studies on the correlations between interstitial images and stage classification of coal workers'pneumoconiosis in the existing literature. [Objective]To present MSCT imaging manifestations and distribution characteristics of coal workers'pneumoconiosis and complications,evaluate correlations between coal workers'pneu-moconiosis stages and pulmonary interstitial lesions,and provide a reliable imaging diagnosis basis for pneumoconiosis interstitial lesions. [Methods]From June 2022 to June 2023,a total of 1002 patients with coal workers'pneumoconiosis confirmed by the pneumoconiosis diagnostic and identification group in the Department of Occupational Diseases of the Emergency General Hospital were enrolled.MSCT was used to observe the abnormal imaging manifestations of the lungs of coal workers'pneumoconiosis patients and the diseases of pul-monary fibrosis related to their own diseases(thickening of the interlobular septum,bronchial perivascular interstitial mass thickening,parenchymal banding,subpleural line,intralobular interstitial thickening,honeycomb,and subpleural interstitial thickening),the occur-rence of coal workers'pneumoconiosis and complications(old tuberculosis,active tuberculosis,pneumonia,atelectasis,lung cancer,bronchiectasis),and the density,size,and location of pneumoconiosis nodules.Imaging data were analyzed and statistically processed. [Results]All 1002 patients were male,with an average age of(60.71±6.87)years and an average dust exposure time of(23.01±7.80)years.Among them,there were 470 patients with stage I,422 patients with stage Ⅱ,and 110 patients with stage Ⅲ.There were significant differences in the distribution of thickening of the interlobular septum,bronchial perivascular interstitial mass thickening,parenchymal banding,intralobular interstitial thickening,subpleural interstitial thickening,and honeycomb across different stages(P＜0.05).Statistically significant differences in p,q,and r subsets of round nodules were found in patients with pneumoconiosis at different stages(P＜0.05).Observed nodule types included solid nodules,pure ground-glass shadow nodules,and partial solid nodules.There were statistically sig-nificant differences in pulmonary tuberculosis and bronchiectasis among different stages of coal workers'pneumoconiosis(P＜0.05).There were statistically significant differences in interstitial shadows and patches combined with interstitial shadows among different stages of pneumoconiosis complicated with pneumonia(P＜0.05). [Conclusion]MSCT provides images of the progression of coal workers'pneumoconiosis and have a certain relationship with the stages of coal workers'pneumoconiosis,which is conducive to the formulation of reasonable treatment plans in the early clinical stage.There-fore,in the diagnosis and treatment of pneumoconiosis,a great attention should be paid to the imaging technology of chest computerized tomography,especially the use of MSCT examination.
