PURPOSE: Evaluate the feasibility of the virtual pleuroscopy (VP) in the detection of the pleural plaques.
METHOD AND MATERIALS: Twenty consecutive patients, having asbestos exposure, explored by unenhanced multidetector CT-scan (Siemens, Sensation 16). The imaging parameters were as follows: beam width, 12 mm; beam pitch, 1; and reconstruction thickness, 1mm every 0.8mm at 120 kV and 180 mA. The image display used a surface-rendering algorithm and produced perspective red-scale images with a matrix of 512 x 512. Each VP image simulated a coned-down view, with a variable cone angle to explore the diaphragmatic pleura. The camera was placed 1 to 2 cm above the diaphragmatic dome. Four views are studied by diaphragm: crâniocaudal, lateral tangential, anterior and posterior. The observed virtual pleura aspect was classified in 5 groups (gr): gr 1: Rib band, gr 2: lobulated pleural thickening, gr 3: spicular, gr 4: plaques and gr 5: nodules. The results were compared to the other MDCT images using multiplanar reformatting.
RESULTS: The visualization of each diaphragm was optimal (35/40; 87.5%), limited (3/40; round atelectasis and asbestosis) or impossible (2/40; asbestosis). The classifications of the studied 38 diaphragmatic pleura were: gr 1 (n=15), gr 2 (n=5), gr 3 (n=11), gr 4 (n=7), gr 5 (n=0). The MDCT analysis showed normal pleura for both gr 1 and gr 2, a confirmed or beginning of fibrosis for gr 3 and confirmed the presence of pleural plaques on the diaphragmatic pleura in all cases of gr 4.
CONCLUSION: The virtual pleuroscopy is a reality. It is a feasible technique. Other studies are necessary to confirm these preliminary results.
