Abstract:
Objective: To investigate the diagnostic value of contrast-enhanced ultrasound combined with serum long non-coding RNA(lncRNA) prostate cancer-associated transcript 6(PCAT6) detection in breast cancer.
Methods: A total of 72 patients with breast cancer were selected as breast cancer group,and 68 patients with benign breast diseases were selected as breast benign disease group.The contrast-enhanced ultrasound were performed in two groups,and the serum levels of lncRNA PCAT6 and carbohydrate antigen 153(CA153) levels were detected.The value of contrast-enhanced ultrasound and serum levels of lncRNA PCAT6 and CA153 in the diagnosis of breast cancer were analyzed.
Results: The proportions of high enhancement and lesion enlargement in breast cancer group were significanthy higher than those in benign breast disease group(
P<0.01).The sensitivity,specificity and accuracy of contrast-enhanced ultrasound in the diagnosis of breast cancer were 73.61%,89.71% and 81.43%,respectively.The serum levels of lncRNA PCAT6 and CA153 in the breast cancer group were significantly higher than those in benign breast disease group(
P<0.01).The AUC,cut-off value,sensitivity,specificity and accuracy of serum lncRNA PCAT6 and CA153 in the diagnosis of breast cancer were (0.882 and 0.719),(1.56 and 27.28 U/mL),(76.39% and 61.11%).The sensitivity,specificity and accuracy of contrast-enhanced ultrasound combined with serum lncRNA PCAT6 in the diagnosis of breast cancer were 98.61%,86.76% and 92.86%,respectively.
Conclusions: The contrast-enhanced ultrasound combined with serum lncRNA PCAT6 detection has high value in the diagnosis of breast cancer,and it is expected to become a clinical reference scheme for early diagnosis of breast cancer.
