A Statistical Analysis on Association of Tissue Hormonic Imaging and Superior Image Quality
Journal Title: International Journal of Medical Science and Innovative Research (IJMSIR) - Year 2018, Vol 3, Issue 5
Abstract
Introduction: Tissue harmonic imaging (THI) is recently introduced as a new imaging technology to improve the ultrasound image quality. Our study aims at to evaluate the statistical association of superior image quality with THI compare to conventional imaging in various types of abdominopelvic lesions. Material and method: This is a prospective hospital based study done on Philips XD11 HE ultrasound scanner. Patients referred from various other department of our institute for abdominopelvic ultrasound having presence of lesion on ultrasound were included in our study. Ultrasound image of the lesion was archived in THI and conventional mode and comparative analysis was done by the expert radiologists. Then lesion were categorized as per echotexture of the lesion. Statistical analysis was done using Chi-square test. Result: The statistically significant association was observed of superior image quality and cystic, echogenic lesion on THI compare to conventional imaging (P<0.001). No significant association of THI with superior image quality was found for solid, mixed, diffuse echotextural abnormal lesions. However THI had showed superior or equal image quality in higher proportion of these lesions compare to conventional imaging. Conclusion: Our study supports the application of THI in abdominopelvic imaging.
