OBJECTIVE: To investigate the diagnostic value of dual-energy computed tomography (DECT) quantitative parameters in the identification of regional lymph node metastasis in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC).
METHODS: This retrospective diagnostic study assessed 145 patients with pathologically confirmed pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma from August 2016-October 2020. Quantitative parameters for targeted lymph nodes were measured using DECT, and all parameters were compared between benign and metastatic lymph nodes to determine their diagnostic value. A logistic regression model was constructed; the receiver operator characteristics curve was plotted; the area under the curve (AUC) was calculated to evaluate the diagnostic efficacy of each energy DECT parameter; and the DeLong test was used to compare AUC differences. Model evaluation was used for correlation analysis of each DECT parameter.
RESULTS: Statistical differences in benign and metastatic lymph nodes were found for several parameters. Venous phase iodine density had the highest diagnostic efficacy as a single parameter, with AUC 0.949 [95% confidence interval (CI):0.915-0.972, threshold: 3.95], sensitivity 79.80%, specificity 96.00%, and accuracy 87.44%. Regression models with multiple parameters had the highest diagnostic efficacy, with AUC 0.992 (95% CI: 0.967-0.999), sensitivity 95.96%, specificity 96%, and accuracy 94.97%, which was higher than that for a single DECT parameter, and the difference was statistically significant.
CONCLUSION: Among all DECT parameters for regional lymph node metastasis in PDAC, venous phase iodine density has the highest diagnostic efficacy as a single parameter, which is convenient for use in clinical settings, whereas a multiparametric regression model has higher diagnostic value compared with the single-parameter model.
