Objective To evaluate the effect of pressure load of avascular necrosis of the femoral head(ANFH) by percutaneous injection of polymethylmethacrylate(PMMA).Methods Models of ANFH were established in 20 adult white rabbits with 40 femoral heads which were induced by injection of hydrochloride(HCL) and hormone.DR was performed to observe the bony density of femoral head in all rabbits,the cystic degeneration and collapse of femoral head were detected in 21 femoral heads,then DSA was done to observe the blood supply and they were divided into three groups at random,group A in 5 was examined by pathology,group B in 8 was injected with PMMA and group C was as control.The test of pressure loading was performed in group B and C.Results Of 21 femoral heads with cystic degeneration and collaps,8 were in the HCL-induced group and 13 were in the hormone-induced group.DSA showed that the blood supply was decreased,and the arteria were decreased in diameter.After the percutaneous injection of PMMA,all of 8 rabbits in experimental group were successful.The distinction between the means of two samples was significant in loading test(P

Objective To discuss the diagnostic value of CT in the hip joint dislocation.Methods We analyzed and compared 17 cases of the hip dislocation examined by X-ray and CT.Results X-ray plain film displayed hip joint dislocation in 15 cases,fractures in 10 cases,soft tissue swelling in 9 cases,widened hip joint space in 6 cases and bone fragment in 3 cases after restoration.CT showed hip joint dislocation and fractures in 17 cases,soft tissue swelling in 15 cases,widened hip joint space in 11 cases and bone fragment in 10 cases after restoration.Conclusion For the direction and the degree of hip joint dislocation,acetabulum fracture,bone fragment in articular space and soft tissue swelling,CT has distinct advantage.We find that CT may be one of a routine method in hip joint dislocation,especially after restoration.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the chest X-ray manifestations of SARS cases.
METHODSA retrospective study was conducted among 52 clinically confirmed SARS patients from February 9 to May 10, 2003. Chest X-ray scanning was performed at a interval of 1 - 3 days according to the requirements. The manifestations and special features of SARS in X-ray were analyzed.
RESULTSSmall or large patchy shadows with intensive density in both lungs were observed in 31 cases, ground-glass like opacification in 16, small patchy shadows in one lung lobe or one lung segment in 18, nodular shadows in one lung segment in 1, and increased lung marking in lung interstitial tissues in 2. Rapidly changing consolidations revealed in chest X-ray images were found to be associated with SARS infections, and they were not affected by treatment with antibiotics.
CONCLUSIONChest X-ray provides a sensitive and specific method for the diagnosis and treatment of SARS, and those present with symptoms and signs should undergo chest X-ray scanning every 1 - 3 days.

Objective:
To explore imaging characteristics of children with 2019 novel coronavirus (2019-nCoV) infection.
Methods:
A retrospective analysis was performed on clinical data and chest CT images of 15 children diagnosed with 2019-nCoV. They were admitted to the third people’s Hospital of Shenzhen from January 16 to February 6, 2020. The distribution and morphology of pulmonary lesions on chest CT images were analyzed.
Results:
Among the 15 children, there were 5 males and 10 females, aged from 4 to 14 years old. Five of the 15 children were febrile and 10 were asymptomatic on first visit. The first nasal or pharyngeal swab samples in all the 15 cases were positive for 2019-nCoV nucleic acid. For their first chest CT images, 6 patients had no lesions, while 9 patients had pulmonary inflammation lesions. Seven cases of small nodular ground glass opacities and 2 cases of speckled ground glass opacities were found. After 3 to 5 days of treatment, 2019-nCoV nucleic acid in a second respiratory sample turned negative in 6 cases. Among them, chest CT images showed less lesions in 2 cases, no lesion in 3 cases, and no improvement in 1 case. Other 9 cases were still positive in a second nucleic acid test. Six patients showed similar chest CT inflammation, while 3 patients had new lesions, which were all small nodular ground glass opacities.
Conclusions
The early chest CT images of children with 2019-nCoV infection are mostly small nodular ground glass opacities. The clinical symptoms of children with 2019-nCoV infection are nonspecific. Dynamic reexamination of chest CT and nucleic acid are important.

Objective To evaluate the clinical experience of extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) treatment on two cases of infection with the critical Corona Virus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) complicated by fulminant myocarditis (FM) . Methods This study selects two COVID-19 cases comorbid with fulminant myocarditis and had been treated with ECMO in Shenzhen Third People's Hospital from January 2020 to February 2020. We compare the index of inflammation, immunization, D-dimer and lactic acid before and after ECMO treatment in 24 and 96 hours, cardiopulmonary function before and after ECMO treatment in 24, 48, 72, 96 hours,. We also analyze the complications and clinical outcomes of the two cases during the ECMO treatment. Results Both patients were elderly obese men with chronic cardiopulmonary disease. Comparing the laboratory test results and imaging data of the two patients, the acute lung injury score, oxygenation index, albumin level, hypersensitive C-reactive protein, lactate and lactate dehydrogenase levels in 2 patients after ECMO treatment were improved as compared with those before ECMO treatment. Finally, case 1 died of multiple organ failure and his cardiac function continued to deteriorate, while, case 2 successfully withdrew and his cardiac function gradually improved. Conclusions For critical COVID-19 patients with fulminant myocarditis, ECMO treatment can improve pulmonary function in the short term, provide valuable time for rescuing COVID-19 patients with fulminant myocarditis.
