Abstract Objective: To investigate the value of CT pulmonary angiography(CTPA) combined with dual-energy perfusion imaging(DEPI) for evaluation of the therapeutic efficacy in senile pulmonary embolism(PE). Methods: Thirty patients with senile PE received dual-energy CT scanning under the same scanning conditions before and after treatment. The location, number and type of embolus, low perfusion position, number and degree of lung perfusion defects, the enhancement value and relative rate of enhancement, and the number of emboli in CTPA and DEPI charts were recorded. These data before or after treatment were compared. Result: There were statistical differences between the number of emboli, pulmonary embolism evaluation, pulmonary embolism index, pulmonary perfusion defect evaluation, pulmonary perfusion defect index of pulmonary trunk (level Ⅰ), lung artery(level Ⅱ), pulmonary segmental artery(level Ⅲ), subsegmental pulmonary artery(level Ⅳ)(P<0.05), before or after treatment. There were significant differences of the number of emboli in the subsegmental pulmonary artery(level Ⅳ),pulmonary embolism(perfusion defect) evaluation, pulmonary embolism(perfusion defect) index by CTPA and DEPI(P<0.05), after treatment. There was no significant difference between RVd/LVd, enhancement value or relative rate of enhancement, before and after treatment. Conclusion: CTPA could reflect the changes of emboli before and after the PE treatment. The detection rate of emboli in subsegmental pulmonary artery could be improved by CTPA based on DEPI. The therapeutic effect of PE treatment could be accurately evaluated with the quantitative analysis method of PE correlation parameter based on the combination of CTPA and DEPI.
