Objective To introduce a new way to solve the problem of field-field junction in the traditional radiotherapy of the nasopharyngeal carcinoma better.Methods Using the 3-dimentional planning system,the dose distribution of traditional radiotherapy and the electronic beam irradiation technology of L shape field for nasopharyngeal carcinoma in 2D-or 3D-CRT could be gotten.Results The dose coverage of V95 of the gross tumor volume(GTV)satisfied the clinical requirements.The highest dose in the electronic beam irradiation of L shape field was 7200 cGy,while it was 8900 cGy in the traditional way.The volume of dose that over 6500 cGy of throat was 19.64 % in the former,the latter was 31.95 %.Conclusion The electronic beam irradiation technology of L shape field is better than the traditional radiotherapy in field-field junction and in dose distribution.Since that,the electronic beam irradiation technology of L shape field is worth of application for the treatment of nasopharyngeal carcinoma.

Purpose: Simulating calculation the dose distribution of the total body irradiation (TBI) with three dimension treatment planning system(3D-TPS ). Materials and Methods: For TBI, the source skin distance(SSD) is 380 cm, field size is 40 cm × 40cm, and collimator angle is 45°. The percent dose depth (PDD) and onset axis ratio (OAR) of the linac accelerator is measured with the big water phantom self-made. In the same radiation condition, the PDD and OAR of water which is simulated calculation with the 3D-TPS is compared with the measurement results to confirm whether the 3D-TPS can calculate the TBI dose distribution. The dose distribution of the human phantom is calculated with 3D-TPS, which is compared and confirmed with the film and TLD measurements. Results: The maximum error of PDD and OAR in the water phantom between the measurements and calculations of 3D-TPS are 3% and 6%. The calculation results of the 3D-TPS is according with the measurement results of the film and TLD approximately. Conclusions: 3D-TPS could simulate calculation the dose distribution for TBI accurately. It is possible to improve more uniform dose for TBI with corresponding compensator for specific patient.

Objective:
This study was to investigate the effects of MEHP on isolated rat heart and explore its mechanism.
Methods:
The experiments were performed with Langendorff-perfused rat heart with a Langendorff apparatus. 35 SD rats were used in the experiment and there were 5 rats per group. MEHP at doses of 3.125, 6.250, 12.500 and 25.000 μmol/L were given to the hearts for 25 minutes. Effects of NAC at concentration of 5 mmol/L were evaluated by co-treatment with 12.500 or 25.000 μmol/L MEHP. Data was collected per 5 minutes for 25 minutes. The heart rate, LVDP, LVEDP, dp/dtmax, and dp/dtmin were measured and analyzed using a PL3508 Data Acquisition and Analysis System. 200 waves at least were required each time. LDH contents in heart lavage fluid were determined by photometric assays using the automated biochemical analyzer. A section of the heart tissue was used for histopathological examination. DCFH-DA method was used to detect the levels of reactive oxygen species in different groups of heart tissues.
Results:
There was a concentration dependent decrease of heart rate (
