Clinical Value of Automatic Fusion Technique of Otological Radiological Images for Intracochlear Position Assessment of Electrode Array after Cochlear Implantation
回顾性分析2020年1月~2021年12月于上海交通大学医学院附属第九人民医院耳鼻咽喉头颈外科门诊随访调机的人工耳蜗植入患者,收集其术前电子计算机断层扫描(computed tomography,CT)、磁共振成像(magnetic resonance imaging,MRI)及术后CT的符合医学数字成像和通信协议(digital Imaging and communications in medicine,DICOM)的数据资料,排除有耳蜗畸形或蜗神经畸形的病例。由2位耳科医师分别用传统技术和定制耳科影像分析软件(耳科精细结构图像智能处理分析软件,V 1.0)进行自动影像融合、重建及分析,评估电极位置(植入深度、电极阶位),并记录评价时间。
To evaluate the effectiveness and reliability of automatic imaging fusion technique in evaluating scalar position after cochlear implantation
and compare it with the "gold standard" of traditional imaging reconstruction technology
and discuss its clinical value and application prospect.
Methods
2
The patients' digital data of preoperative computed tomography (CT)
magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and postoperative CT were collected
who received mapping in the Department of Otorhinolaryngology
Head and Neck Surgery
the Ninth People's Hospital Affiliated to Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine from Jan 2020 to Dec 2021. Two senior otologists assessed the scalar position after cochlear implantation using both traditional image reconstruction technique and automatic imaging fusion reconstruction techniques (MUSARIO
Medical ultra-structure analysis and reconstruction software in otology
V 1.0). The insertion depth
scalar position and evaluation time were collected.
Results
2
68 patients with 109 ears were included in the study
32 males and 36 females
with average age 5.1±13.1 yrs. All electrode arrays were fully inserted without fold. The basilar membrane shift happened in 7 cases (6.4%)
and 1(0.9%) case presented translocation. Measured by two methods
there was good consistency with the insertion depth [ICC=0.0999 (95%CI 0.999-1.000)
P
<
0.001] and range of electrodes with basilar membrane shift or translocation [ICC=0.0999 (95%CI 0.999-1.000)
P
<
0.001]. The mean measurement time was 30±4.0 minutes with traditional technique and 10±1.8 minutes with MUSARIO
respectively (
P
<
0.001). The evaluation times of different types of electrodes were different
and the evaluation time of pre-curved electrode is longer (
F
=3.610
P
=0.016).
Conclusion
2
As a new technique
automatic imaging fusion reconstruction technique has no difference in reliability compared with traditional image reconstruction technique. It greatly shortens the evaluation time and is beneficial to popularize the imaging analysis after cochlear implantation. It can be clinically promoted as a new technology.
