The purpose of this study was to quantitatively evaluate the targeted treatment and nursing effect of patients with liver metastasis of colon cancer by enhanced magnetic resonance imaging. First, Dynamic Contrast-Enhanced Magnetic Resonance Imaging (DCE-MRI) images were restored. 35 patients with liver metastases from colon cancer were selected as research subjects and treated by bevacizumab, and high-quality nursing methods were used to improve the psychophysiology of the patients. Enhanced CT examination and DCE-MRI scan were performed before and after the treatment. After the image was processed by the artificial intelligence algorithm, apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC), measurement transmission constant (Ktrans), reflux constant (Kep), extravascular extracellular volume fraction (Ve), and other data on the image were recorded. Two months after the treatment, 35 patients were divided into effective and ineffective groups. It was found that, after treatment, the Kep value and Ktrans value of the effective group were significantly reduced, showing statistically significant differences, and the P value was less than 0.05, and the Kep value and Ktrans value of the ineffective group showed no significant changes. The Ve value of the two groups gradually decreased with the progress of the treatment. In the effective group, the Ve values before the treatment, on the third day after the treatment, and on the seventh day after treatment were (0.235 ± 0.134), (0.338 ± 0.116), and (0.457 ± 0.097), respectively. Compared with the Ve values of the ineffective group, there was a statistical difference, F = 3.592, P = 0.0245 ; the ADC value was negatively correlated with the Ktrans and Kep values, and the results were statistically significant. It was concluded that the above indicators are effective in evaluating the efficacy of the targeted therapy of liver metastasis from colon cancer, and DCE-MRI is of great significance in predicting the efficacy of targeted therapy of liver metastasis from colon cancer.
