Objective To evaluate the scan technique and clinical value of multi-slice spiral CT angiography(MSCTA) of coronary artery.Methods MSCTA was performed in 86 patients,and 25 of them were also investigated with selective coronary angiography(SCA).The imaging quality of MSCTA in different scanning condition were analyzed.The patency of coronary artery and other branches were examined.The distribution and extent of coronary arterial stenoses were assessed.The findings demonstrated on MSCTA were compared with those seen on SCA.Results(1)The imaging quality on MSCTA of coronary artery was significant better in patients with a heart rate below 60 beats per minute,contrast flowing rate 3.0~3.5 ml/s,volume 120~150 ml and delayed time 22~25 s;(2)in 25 cases,of 71 coronary artery and branches without stenoses examined with MSCTA,68 had identical appearance on both MSCTA and SCA.The distribution and extent of 19 coronary arterial stenoses revealed by MSCTA were correlated exactly with SCA in 29 coronary arterial stenoses.The negative and positive predicted value were 95.8% and 65.5% respectively.Sensitivity,specificity and accuracy were 86.4%,87.2% and 87.0% respectively.Conclusion MSCTA as a noninvasive examination is a valuable method in detecting diseases or variations of coronary artery.

Objective To evaluate the diagnostic and differential value of triphasic, especially the arterial phase, contrast enhanced CT scans for the hepatocellular adenoma, and to improve CT diagnostic accuracy. Methods Spiral CT scanning of pre and post contrast arterial phase, portal venous phase and delayed phase was performed in 5 patients with hepatocellular adenomas proved surgically and pathologically. The enhancement was administrated with venous injection of 3 ml/sec, totally 100 ml angiografin. Arterial phase of contrast enhanced scanning started 20～30 sec, portal venous phase 60～70 sec and delay scanning 3 min after the injection of contrast medium. The degrees of the enhancement of adnoma and normal tissues of liver in the three contrast enhanced phases were calculated and compared statistically. Results In plain CT, the lesions were iso density in 4 cases and slight hypodensity in 1 case, which was hardly distinguished from the normal tissue. In all 5 cases, the lesions showed marked enhancement in the arterial phase compared with normal tissue of liver (38 HU high), and there were markedly statistical difference ( t =18 94, P 0.05). The mean CT value of hepatocellular adenoma in the arterial phase was much higher than that in portal venous and delay phase, there were statistical differences between them ( F =18.39, P

Objective To investigate the distribution and antibiotic resistance profile of clinical isolates in the First Hospital of Qiqihar during 2015.Methods Antimicrobial susceptibility test was carried out according to a unified protocol using automated system from January 1,2015 to December 31,2015.The results were analyzed with WHONET 5.6 software according to the 2014 breakpoints of Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute.Results A total of 5 162 clinical isolates were collected,of which 28.1％ (1 450/5 162) were gram-positive cocci and 71.9％ (3 712/5 162) were gram-negative bacilli.About 36.5％ (255/698) ofS.aureus isolates and 81.4％ (180/221) of coagulase negative Staphylococcus isolates were resistant to methicillin.No S.aureus and coagulase negative Staphylococcus isolate were found resistant to vancomycin or linezolid.Enterococcus isolates showed low resistance to vancomycin and linezolid.One strain of E.faecium was found resistant to vancomycin.ESBLs were produced in 39.9％ (298/747) ofE.coli,26.1％ (294/1 127) ofKlebsiella spp.,and 15.6％ (12/77) ofP mirabilis strains.The Enterobacteriaceae strains were less resistant to imipenem,beta-lactam/beta-lactamase inhibitor combination and amikacin.About 36.6％ (163 / 445) of A.baumannii isolates and 1.8％ (13/715) of P.aeruginosa isolates were extensively drug-resistant strains.Conclusions Antibiotic resistance poses a serious threat to clinical practice,to which more attention should be paid.Clinical microbiology lab should make more efforts to provide better support to clinical therapy.

Objective:To assess the clinical value of Gore C-TAG stent-graft segmented release mode combined with 'periscope’ technique in dealing with distal reentry tear of aortic dissection after thoracic endovascular aortic repair (TEVAR).Methods:The clinical data of 5 patients of distal false lumen enlargement after thoracic endovascular aortic repair for Stanford type B aortic dissection (TBAD) from 2019 to 2020 was retrospectively analyzed.Results:All five patients were male. Combining Gore C-TAG stent-graft segmented release mode with 'periscope’ technique was used. All five patients successfully underwent secondary endovascular repair, no intraoperative thoracotomy or major postoperative complications during hospitalization occurred . Compared to aortic CTA imaging in pre- and post-secondary endovascular repair, the curative efficacy of this method in the treatment of distal reentry tear of aortic dissection was evaluated. It showed that distal reentry tears were covered completely without reperfusion of aortic false lumen, as well as branch stents with well-perfusion based on aortic CTA imaging during the first year following-up.Conclusions:Gore C-TAG stent-graft segmented release mode combined with 'periscope’ technique in dealing with distal reentry tear of aortic dissection is technically applicable and highly successful with satisfactory short-term results.

0.05).But significant enhancement was found after LAD ligation for 4 hours (82.1?15.2) HU.MSCT coronary angiography could show the blockage of LAD in nine dogs.Conclusion MSCT myocardial perfusion combined with coronary angiography could estimate myocardial ischemia and infarction,and show the blockage of the coronary artery.

Objective To investigate the influence of the hematoma involving the aortic arch in endovascular aortic repair of complicated type B intramural aortic hematoma. Methods A total of 69 patients[58men; mean age(58.1±8.9)years; range 38-77]underwent endovascular repair between February 2011 and June 2015 were retrospectively reviewed. Patients with hematoma involving about the left subclavian artery level were categorized as group A(n=28) and patients without hematoma involvement to the aortic arch were categorized as group B (n=41). Results All the patients were treated with coverd aortic stents. The success rate was 97.1％ with complete isolation of lesion in 67 patients. The average follow-up period was(19.6±14.1)months. During perioperative period, no procedure related deaths was recorded. Perioperative complications include paraplegia in 1case(1.4％) in group B and stent graft-induced new entry in 2 cases(2.9％) in group A. During the follow-up period 1 case in group A within 1 month and another 1 case in group B within 1 year developed new entries at proximal end of stents. 1 case (1.4％) in group B had asymptomatic type Ⅰ endoleak 2 years after TEVAR. Conclusions Type B aortic intramural hematoma with arch involvement is not a risk factor of stent-induced new entry in perioperative period after endovascular treatment and further studies are needed. Strict control of blood pressure is essential for the prevention of stent-related complications.

Objective To evaluate the safety and efficiency of transcatheter anastomotic leakage closure after surgical procedures for non-infected ascending aortic pathology with different occlusion devices. Methods From Dec. 2013 to Sep. 2015, six cases received interventional therapy for anastomotic leakage after surgical procedures for non-infected ascending aortic pathology using occluders. Four cases were with proximal graft-vessel anastomotic leakage, including two pseudoaneurysms at the site of aortic roots and two ascending aorta to right atrium shunts. The other two cases were with artificial grafts to intraoperative stent anastomotic leakage leading to endoleak type Ib. The anastomotic leakage was totally occluded by single ADOⅡrespectively in four cases. Two detachable coils were implanted in one case with artificial graft to intraoperative stent anastomotic leakage, but mild residual shunt to false lumen was detected by DSA and follow-up CTA. The second interventional procedure was carried out one month later, and one ADO Ⅱ was used to close the residual leakage totally. One PDA occluder was implanted along arteriovenous guide-wire track via aortic root to right atrium fistula in one case. Results All the anastomotic leakages of the six cases were totally excluded by different occlude devices percutaneously. The technical success rate was 100%. Follow-up time was from 1 month to 4 years. The patients' clinical condition improved obviously. Follow-up CTA showed no recurrence of anastomotic leakage. Complete thrombosis and marked shrinkage of the pseudoaneurysm were achieved in two cases, and the partial thrombosis and shrinkage of the false lumen were achieved in 2 cases. Conclusion Trans-catheter closure is an alternative treatment for ascending aortic surgical anastomotic leakage, which may achieve satisfactory short-and mid-term results.
