目的 研究动态增强MRI对于鉴别血清学阴性的手早期类风湿关节炎(RA)和骨性关节炎(OA)的价值.方法 53例疑诊为手RA或OA且X线阴性患者经3～6个月随访直至明确诊断,将其中符合早期RA诊断标准且初诊时血清阴性者18例(RA组)和符合早期OA诊断标准者18例(OA组)纳入研究,另选取18名志愿者(正常对照组);均行全手MR平扫、增强扫描及单层动态增强扫描,测量病变部滑膜强化率、曲线斜率和滑膜厚度,观察RA组和OA组MRI异常征象,滑膜强化率和滑膜强化曲线斜率3组间及3组间两两比较均采用秩和检验;滑膜厚度3组间及3组间两两比较均采用方差分析;RA组与OA组的其他MR征象比较采用秩和检验.结果 RA组、OA组、正常对照组滑膜强化率分别为(100.78±61.96)%、(40.44±15.43)%和(23.56±9.14)%,RA组与OA组比较,u=3.101,P=0.002;RA组与正常对照组比较,u=4.669,P=0.000;OA组与正常对照组比较,u=3.482,P=O.000.滑膜强化曲线斜率值分别为72.50°±13.34°、45.39°±9.94°及14.56°±5.75°,RA组与OA组比较,u=8.002,P=0.000;RA组与正常对照组比较,u=17.102,P=0.000;OA组与正常对照组比较,u=9.100,P=0.000.滑膜厚度分别为(3.3±0.5)、(2.8±0.7)、(1.4±0.6)mm,RA组与OA组比较,q=2.622,P=0.011;RA组与正常对照组比较,q=9.583,P=0.000;OA组与正常对照组比较,q=6.961,P=O.000.滑膜动态强化曲线RA组呈快速上升平台型,OA组呈缓慢上升型,正常对照组呈极慢速上升型.结论 动态增强MR扫描通过滑膜强化率和滑膜厚度等量化指标可以在血清学阴性的早期阶段鉴别RA和OA.RA患者比OA患者的滑膜强化率更高,速度更快,滑膜厚度更大.多种MR征象对于鉴别RA患者与OA患者有价值.

Objective To investigate the value of dynamic contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging ( DCE-MRI) in differentiating serological negative early stage rheumatoid arthritis (RA) from osteoarthritis (OA)in hand. Methods Plain MRI, enhanced MRI of whole hand and DCE-MRI of single slice were performed in 53 patients suspected of RA or OA and 18 healthy volunteers. Twenty-three of them were diagnosed as RA,including 18 cases of serological negative RA and 18 of them were diagnosed as OA after 3 to 6 months follow-up. The contrast rate,slope, thickening of synovial membrane were measured on DCE-MRI in three groups and the MRI findings were also were detected in both RA and OA groups. The contrast rate and slope of synovial membrane were compared among three groups using rank sum test. The thickening of synovial membrane were compared among three groups using variance analysis. MRI signs of RA and OA group were evaluated with rank sum test Results The dynamic contrast rate of synovial membrane in RA group,OA group and control group was(100.78±61.96)%,(40.44±15.43)% and (23.56±9.14)%,respectively.Individually,RA group to OA group,u=3.101,P=0.002;RA group to control group,u=4.669,P=0.000;OA group to control group,u=3.482,P=0.000.The slope of contrast curve of synodal membrane of RA group,OA group and control group was 72.50°±13.34°,45.39°±9.94°,14.56°±5.75°,respectively.Individually,RA group to OA group,u=8.002,P=0.000;RA group to control group,u=17.102,P=0.000;OA group to control group,u=9.100,P=0.000.The synovial membrane thickening of RA group,OA group and control group was(3.3±0.5),(2.8±0.7)and (1.4±0.6)mm,respectively.Individually,RA group to OA group,q=2.622,P=0.011;RA group to control group,q=9.583,P=0.000;OA group to control group,q=6.961,P=0.000.Conclusion The quantitative index of DCE-MRI,including contrast rate and synovial membrane thickening may provide useful information for differentiating OA from semlogical negative early stage RA.The contrast rate and thickening of synovial membrane in RA group are higher than those in OA group.Many signs of MRI Can help differentiate OA from RA.
