This study aimed to evaluate the value of CTP in guiding biopsy of pulmonary lumps. Methods A total of 147 patients with pulmonary lumps who had CT guided biopsies were enrolled in this study from February 2005 to June 2007. The patients were assigned to 3 groups： 33 cases guided by CTP as group 1, 45 cases guided by contrast-enhanced scan of CT as group Ⅱ, and 69 cases guided by plain scan of CT as group Ⅲ. Each group was subdivided into central and peripheral types according to the location of the lumps. The achievement ratio of biopsy, the accuracy in grouping, and grading of lung cancer, and the incidence of complication were compared. Results The total achievement ratios of biopsy from group Ⅰ to Ⅲ were 100% （33/33）, 91% （41/45）, and 80% （55/69） respectively, and the difference was statistically significant between group Ⅰ and Ⅲ （P 〈0.05）. For the central type, they were 100% （18/18）, 88% （15/17）, and 79% （11/14） respectively, and the difference was also statistically significant between group Ⅰand Ⅲ （P 〈0.05）. For the peripheral type, they were 100% （15/15）, 93% （26/28）, and 80% （44/55） respectivelies, and the difference was not statistically significant among the three groups. The total accuracies in grouping and grading of lung cancer from group Ⅰ to Ⅲ were 100% （27/27）, 91% （31/34）, and 72% （33/46） respectively, and the difference was statistically significant between group Ⅰ and Ⅲ and between group Ⅱ and Ⅲ （P 〈0.05）. For the central type, they were 100% （16/16）, 94% （16/17）, and 70% （8/12） respectively, and the difference was statistically significant between group Ⅰ and Ⅲ （P〈0.05）. For the peripheral type, they were 100% （11/11）, 88% （15/17）, and 72% （26/36） respectively, and the difference was statistically significant between group Ⅰ and Ⅲ （P 〈0.05）. The total展开更多
