Objective:

To investigate the clinical application value of contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) in the diagnosis of bladder occupied lesions.

Methods:

A total of 31 bladder occupied lesions in 21 cases found by conventional ultrasound were retrospectively analyzed. All the lesions were examinated by color Doppler flow imaging (CDFI) and CEUS. The difference between the two methods in displaying blood flow of bladder occupied lesions was analyzed

and perfusion pattern of CEUS was compared with the pathological results.

Results:

There were 28 bladder cancer lesions and 3 glandular cystitis lesions. The

blood flow display rate of CEUS in diagnosing bladder occupied lesions was 100%

which was significantly higher than CDFI (71.0%)(

P

0.05). There were 30 bladder cancer lesions and 1 glandular cystitis lesion diagnosed by CEUS

with a diagnostic accuracy of 93.5%.

Conclusion:

CEUS could increase the display rate of blood flow of bladder occupied lesions and it has high clinical application value in differential diagnosis of benign from malignant bladder occupied lesions.
