摘要Objective: To assess inter-and intraobserver reproducibility for measuring perfusion CT derived cerebral blood volume(CBV)and relative cerebral blood volume(rCBV)with different slice thickness in patients with brain neoplasms.Methods: Three independent observers who were blinded to the histopathologic diagnosis performed perfusion derived CBV and rCBV measurements with 5 mm and 10 mm slice thickness in 52 patients with various cerebral neoplasms.The results of the measurements with different slice thickness were compared.Calculation of coefficient of variation(CV), and relative paired difference of the measurements were used to determine the levels of inter-and intraobserver reproducibility.Results: The differences of CBV and rCBV measurements between different slice thickness groups were statistically significant(P＜0.05)respectively in observer 2, and were not significant in the other two observers(P＞0.05).For the same slice thickness, both the difference of CBV and rCBV measurements among the three observers were not statistically significant.Interobserver CV and relative paired difference of the measurements with 10 mm slice thickness group were slightly lower than those of 5 mm slice thickness group.Interobserver CV and relative paired difference of CBV group were slightly lower than those of rCBV group.The intraobserver differences of CBV and rCBV in 10 mm slice thickness group were statistically significant for observer 2 respectively.No other intraobserver differences of measurements were statistically significant.CV and relative paired difference of intraobserver CBV and rCBV measurements for observer 2 were significantly higher than for the other two observers.Conclusion: High reproducibility of CBV and rCBV measurements was acquired with the two different slice thickness.Suitable training may be helpful to maintain a high level of consistency for measurements.
