PURPOSE: To investigate the feasibility of dual-energy subtraction (DES) in patients with moderate-severe cervical spondylosis for improving delineation of the larynx on flat panel detector (FPD) radiography.
MATERIALS AND METHODS: For 118 patients, we graded conventional/DES anterior-posterior views for delineation of the vocal cords, subglottis, and pyriform sinus using a 5-point scale and lateral views from conventional laryngeal FPD radiography to determine cervical spondylosis severity on a scale from 0 (none) to 3 (severe). We compared the delineation of each anatomical structure in both groups of grades 0-1 and grades 2-3 of spondylosis severity between conventional and DES methods and the improved delineation rate for each anatomical structure by DES compared to the conventional method between both groups.
RESULTS: With DES, the delineation of each anatomical structure was significantly better than with conventional radiography for both groups (P < 0.0001). The improved delineation rate of the vocal cord and subglottis using DES was significantly higher in grades 2-3 than in grades 0-1 (P < 0.05), although there was no significant difference in the delineation rate of the pyriform sinus between the groups (P = 0.847).
CONCLUSION: DES provides better delineation of the laryngeal anatomy than conventional FPD radiography predominantly in patients with moderate-severe cervical spondylosis.
