The effect of color Doppler ultrasound combined with serum CA125 level on the diagnostic efficacy of patients with ovarian cancer

Objective To study the effect of color Doppler ultrasound (CDUS) combined with serum glucoside antigen 125 (CA125) on the diagnostic efficacy of patients with ovarian cancer. Methods A total of 78 patients with ovarian tumors admitted to our hospital from February 2012 to June 2018 were enrolled. Among them, 38 patients with malignant tumors and 40 patients with benign tumors were tested for CDUS and serum CA125. The characteristics of CDUS images and serum CA125 levels in patients with malignant tumors were analyzed by pathological examination as the gold standard. The diagnostic efficacy of CDUS combined with serum CA125 level detection and separate examination was analyzed. Results ⑴ Characteristics of CDUS images: the size, location, texture, blood flow signal, resistance index, ascites, peritoneal implant nodule or enlarged lymph node of patients with malignant tumors were significantly different from those of benign tumors (P 0.05); the sensitivity of CDUS combined with serum CA125 level detection was 97.37%. The two were independently examined by 76.32% and 73.68% (P 0.05). Conclusions The serum CA125 level of patients with ovarian cancer is abnormally elevated. The characteristics of CDUS images are different from those of benign tumors, which can effectively identify benign and malignant tumors. CDUS combined with serum CA125 level detection can significantly improve the diagnostic efficacy, and they can be used to judge the disease and symptom , and provide guidance for treatment and prognosis assessment.
