Abstract

To analyze the diagnostic performance of MDA-MPR with CT for evaluating ACL structural continuity. A total of 145 patients with highly suspected ACL injury admitted to our hospital between January 2016 and May 2021 were retrospectively enrolled. All patients had undergone examination with MRI, CT, and arthroscopy. Taking arthroscopy results as the gold standard, the diagnostic accuracy for identifying ACL rupture by MRI and MDA-MPR with CT were compared. The receiver operator characteristic curves demonstrated that both MRI and MDA-MPR with CT performed well in the diagnosis of ACL tears. The sensitivities of MRI and MDA-MPR with CT for diagnosing complete ACL tears were 95.16% (59/62) and 90.32% (56/62), respectively. Their specificities in this regard were 77.11% (64/83) and 84.34% (70/83), respectively. MRI had a higher sensitivity but MDA-MPR with CT had a higher specificity for detecting complete ACL tears, and the differences were statistically significant (p <.05). The sensitivities of diagnosing partial ACL tears using MRI and MDA-MPR with CT were 78.79% (26/33) and 75.76% (25/33), respectively, while the specificities were 86.61% (97/112) and 90.18% (101/112), respectively. These differences were non-significant (p >.05). MDA-MPR with CT has high diagnostic efficiency for ACL injuries, especially in the diagnosis of complete ACL tears.
