Abstract

Purpose: Describer the imaging characteristics of esophageal cancer on MDCT 256-detector row. Material and method: From June 2019 to June 2020, 32 patients with esophageal cancer were treated at Huu nghi Hospital. The quantitative parameters were expressed as mean and standard deviation while the qualitative parameters were expressed as percentage. SPSS 26.0 was applied.
Results: 3.1.% cases were not found on MDCT. The tumors were found most commonly in the middle and low one third. The tumor size were 44.8±33.01 mm of length and 12.2±4.77 mm of thickness. All of them were T3 stages. 48.4% patients have lymph nodes. Majority of lymph nodes were in mediastinum or supraclavicular areas. 9.6% patients were metastasized.
Conclusion: MDCT 256-detector row is helpful for characterising esophageal cancer.
