Abstract：Objective To evaluate the application value of contrast-enhanced ultrasound ( CEUS) in the diagnosis of renal occupied lesions systematically.Methods The related literatures which used CEUS in the diagnosis of renal occu-pied lesions were searched from Pubmed, Embase, Cochrane Library, CBM and CNKI database.The heterogeneity test was conducted on these literatures by using Stata 12.0 and Meta-disc software.The weighted sensitivity, specificity, diagnosis odds ratio, positive likelihood ratio and negative likelihood ratio were calculated as well as the summary receiver operating characteristic ( SROC) curve.Results Fourteen literatures were included, the weighted sensitivity, specificity, diagnostic odds ratio, positive likelihood ratio and negative likelihood ratio were 0.957, 0.748, 66.277, 3.797 and 0.057, respec-tively;and the SROC curve was 0.96.Conclusion Using CEUS has a low missed diagnosis rate, an relative high misdi-agnosis rate and small range of summary sensitivity in the differential diagnosis of renal occupied lesions.
