Objective:
To evaluate the diagnostic value of multi-slice spiral CT (MSCT) for plasma cell mastitis.
Methods:
Radiographs of MSCT for forty-six patients with plasma cell mastitis diagnosed by pathological examination were reviewed.
Results:
The findings of MSCT of plasma cell mastitis could be divided into four types, including the inflammation type, the abscess type, the sinus and fistula type, and the mixed type, and each type had its radiographic characteristics.
Conclusion:
MSCT is helpful for diagnosing plasma cell mastitis and should be used as an examination of first choice for the patients.
