To improve the diagnosis of concomitance of cancer and cyst in the same kidney, a retrospective review of the imaging results of 10 patients with cystic renal cancers confirmed by surgery and pathologic study was performed. Excretory urography showed an avascular mass suggestive of a cyst. Ultrasonography revealed a cystic mass with thinkened and irregular walls,but it was unable to distinguish between a complicated and an extensively necrotic cancer.On CT scans,irregular cystic wall and definite early enhancement in solid component were observed.In some of the patients,there were mural nodules,septum and calcification. Some scans may show an almost cystic appearance,but one or more CT scans always showed some dense neoplastic tissue.This study indicated irregular and thickened cystic wall and septum,mural nodules and early enhancement of solid component were the characteristic findings for the CT diagnosis.This suggestive CT pattern must be particularly searched for at the base of the cyst,but may also be present in the periphery of the cyst.

Objective To explore the correlation of left ventricular systolic function calculated by automated cardiac motion quantification (aCMQ) and three-dimensional quantitative analysis (3DQA). Methods According to LVEF by 3DQA,patients were divided into abnormal cardiac function group(LVEF<50%)and normal cardiac function group(LVEF≥50%).Dynamic images from two chamber view(AP2), four chamber view(AP4)and three chamber view(AP3)of left ventricular long axis were acquired from 32 patients with abnormal cardiac function and 119 normal subjects.AP2 longitudinal strain (AP2LS),AP4 longitudinal strain (AP4LS) and AP3 longitudinal strain (AP3LS) as well as the left ventricular global longitudinal strain (LVGLS) were measured by aCMQ. While left ventricular end diastolic volume (LVEDV),left ventricular end systolic volume (LVESV) and LVEF were derived through aCMQ automatically calculated region of interest (ROI) driven automation.The correlation of left ventricular systolic function indexes obtained by aCMQ and 3DQA were compared.Results No significant differences were found between the two groups in gender,body mass index(BMI) and age (P > 0.05).LVEF in abnormal group by 3QDA and aCMQ were much lower than those in normal group (P < 0.01).The absolute values of AP2LS,AP4LS,AP3LS and LVGLS in abnormal group were significantly lower than those in normal group (P < 0.01).LVEF by aCMQ in abnormal group was positively correlated with LVEF by 3QDA methods(r =0.91 ,P <0.01);LVEF by aCMQ in normal group was positively correlated with LVEF by 3QDA (r = 0.73,P < 0.01).The left ventricular global longitudinal strain (LVGLS) measured by aCMQ was negatively correlated with LVEF by 3QDA(r = -0.815,P < 0.01).LVEF measured by aCMQ and 3DQA showed high inter-observer and intra-observer agreements in Bland-Altman charts.Conclusions aCMQ has preferable repeatability.Comparing with the traditional measurement method,LVEF measured by aCMQ has higher correlation with that measured by 3QDA.aCMQ can be a new and relatively accurate method to evaluate the left ventricular systolic function.

Objective To evaluate dual-source dual-energy CT(DSCT) for the differentiation of urinary stone composition in vitro. Methods Ninety-seven urinary stones were obtained by endoscopic lithotripsy and scanned using dual-source dual-energy CT. The stones were divided into six groups according to infrared spectroscopy stone analysis: uric acid ( UA ) stones ( n = 10 ), cystine stones ( n = 5 ), struvite stones( n = 6), calcium oxalate ( CaOx ) stones ( n = 22 ), mixed UA stones ( n=7 ) and mixed calcium stones(n=47). Hounsfield units (HU) of each stone were recorded for the 80 kV and the 140 kV datasets by hand-drawing method. HU difference, HU ratio and dual energy index ( DEI ) were calculated and compared among the stone groups with one-way ANOVA. Using dual energy software to determine the composition of all stones, results were compared to infrared spectroscopy analysis. Results There were statistical differences in HU difference [(-17±13), (229±34),(309 ±45), (512 ±97), (201±64)and (530±71) HU respectively], in HU ratio (0.96±0.03, 1.34 ±0.04, 1.41 ±0.03, 1.47 ±0.03,1.30±0.07, and 1.49 ±0.03 respectively), and DEI( -0.006 ±0.004, 0.064 ±0.007, 0.080 ±0. 007, 0. 108±0.011 ,0. 055 ±0.014 and 0. 112 ±0.008 respectively ) among different stone groups(F=124. 894,407.028, 322. 864 respectively, P ＜0. 01 ). There were statistical differences in HU difference,HU ratio and DE1 between UA stones and the other groups( P ＜ 0. 01 ). There were statistical differences in HU difference, HU ratio and DEI between CaOx or mixed calcium stones and the other four groups (P＜0. 01 ). There was statistical difference in HU ratio between cystine and struvite stones ( P ＜ 0. 01 ). There were statistical differences in HU difference, HU ratio and DEI between struvite and mixed UA stones (P＜0. 05 ). Dual energy software correctly characterized 10 UA stones, 4 cystine stones, 22 CaOx stones and 6 mixed UA stones. Two struvite stones were considered to contain cystine. One cystine stone, 1 mixed UA stone, 4 struvite stones and 47 mixed calcium stones were considered to contain oxalate. Conclusions DSCT has the ability to differentiate urinary stone composition in vitro. With dual energy software, the UA, cystine and mixed UA stones can be differentiated from other types of stones.

Objective To measure the pressure-volume changes and uroflow rate,and assess the function of upper urinary tract in sigmoidorcctal pouch patients.Methods Between 2007 and 2011,a to-tal of 10 patients who had a radical cystectomy because of muscle-invasive bladder tumor underwent a Mainz pouch Ⅱ procedure were evaluated.The ureters were implanted into the post walls of the detubularized sigmoid segment at least 30 cm in length.In all cases,sigmoidoscopy was done and the anal pressure was measured preoperatively,and video urodynamic study of sigmoidorectal pouch as well as the intravenous pyelography was conducted after 3 to 6 months postoperatively.Results Video urodynamic study of sigmoidorectal pouch revealed that no reflux up to an average volume of 360 ml (270-532 ml) of the descending colon.The sigmoidal colon pressure was 26 cm H2O during the 3 to 6 months post-operative follow-up.The anal sphincter pressure was 90 cm H2O on average preoperatively and did not change postoperatively.The renal function and upper urinary tract were preserved well.The Qmax was 30 ml/s and the average uroflow rate was 8 ml/s under abdominal strain.All the patients suffered slight incontinence in the first two months and became continent since the 3 month postoperatively with nocturnal voiding one to four times.Conclusions The sigmoidorectal pouch provides a reservoir with a higher capacity,lower pressure without reflux to the upper urinary tract and descending colon and lower metabolic acidosis problem.It is also a good alternative diversion procedure that would preserve upper urinary tract and good quality of life.
