Abstract: Objective To explore clinical value of CT virtual endoscopy(CTVE)imaging in the diagnosis of AIDS combined with bronchial tuberculosis,by contrast analysis with bronchoscopy. Methods Forty-three patients with confirmed AIDS and clinical manifestations with bronchial tuberculosis underwent CT thin-slice continuous volume scan, CT traversal images and CTVE images were used to evaluate bronchial lesions, and compared with bronchoscopy, the examination results were analyzed by statistical methods. Results For the detection rate of bronchial tuberculosis, traversal images and CTVE images were 62.8%(27/43) and 83.7%(36/43), respectively (P=0.021), and the difference was statistically significant. Compared with bronchoscopy, CTVE had no statistical significance (P>0.375). Conclusions CTVE has a higher diagnostic accuracy for bronchial tuberculosis, and it is also a non-invasive examination method, which is easy to be accepted by AIDS patients, and high clinical application value and broad clinical application prospects.
