Objective To investigate the impact of imaging quality of pitch on coronary CT angiography (CTA) with 64-detector row CT. Methods 566 patients were divided into four groups according to heart rate (≤ 50,51-70,71 ~ 80 and ≥ 80 bpm). Three dimensional reconstructions were used such as volume rendering (VR) ,maximum intensity projection(MIP) and curved planar reformation(CPR). Each group was divided into control group and cxperimential group randomly, using normal pitch and revised pitch respectively, and the imaging quality and influencing factons were analyzed among the four groups. Results There was significant difference in imaging quality among the four groups (P < 0.05). Each group had difference in imaging quality with normal pitch and revised pitch. Conclusions The revised pitch helps to improve the imaging quality and meet the demand of diagnosis.

Objective To evaluate the therapeutic effect of Pingyangmycin lipiodol emulsion (PLE) embolization for cavernous hemangioma of liver (CHL). Methods Seldinger technique was adopted and the catheter was super-selectively sent into the supplying artery of tumors in 18 CHL patients, 5-10 ml of Lidocaine and 5-20 ml of PLE were slowly injected. Before the embolization, 50-100 mg of pethidine was routinely injected. The embolization was conducted in several times in patients with large tumors, with multiple supplying arteries, and whose age was above 60 years. During the 3-48 months'follow-up after the operation,the change of the tumor diameter before and after the embolization was compared by using CT and ultrasound. The clinical symptomatic relief and the complications were also observed. Results The CHL of all the 18 cases were filled up by PLE. The foci were completely vanished in 9 cases, reduced by over 50% in 7 cases,and reduced by 25%-50% in 2 cases,respectively. The follow-up angiographic examination was performed in six cases, the tumor staining was completely vanished and the tumor-supplying artery was closed up. The improving rate of the clinical symtoms reached 89% . There were no serious complications. Conclusion The PLE embolization in hepatic cavernous hemangioma proves to be reliable, safe, minimally invasive, and with little side effect. This therapy, therefore, can be the first method of choice in treating the cavernous hemangioma of the liver.

Objective To investigate ~1H-MRS findings of brain tumor and the clinical application of ~1H-MRS.Methods 80patients with brain tumors clinically or pathologically-proved underwent ~1H-MRS.Normal opposite hemispheres in 30 cases were used as control group.Single voxel spectroscopy(SVS) or 2D-MRS imaging was performed with excited echo sequence.The mean ratio of metabolisms with difference was compared.Results Compared with control group,NAA of tumor decreased in certain degree(P

Objective To predict the risk of acute myocardial infarction with 64-row CT and left ventricular function analysis.Methods Both 64-row CT coronary angiograhphy and 64-row CT left function in 289 patients were analysed. All the patients were divided into four groups according to the degree of stenosis of their coronary arteries. Mean left ventricular myocardial mass( LVMM ) , left ventricular ejection fraction(LVEF) and left ventricular end diastolic volume(LVEDV) of each group were calculated and compared with their clinical materials.Results LVMM, LVEDV as determined with 64-row corrected well with the occurrence of the myocardial ischemia proved by clinical evidence(r≈0.82,0.76),while LVEF showed a negative correction(r≈-0.74).Conclusion It is not accurate enough to predict the acute myocardial infarction with only the degree of narrow of the coronary artery. 64-row CT provides not only the degree of stenosis of the coronary artery , but also the functional features of the left ventricular as well. Both of them are of much importance to predict the risk of the acute myocardial infarction.

Objective To investigate the interventional therapy and its value in the metal foreign matter in the stomach. Methods Eight patients with metal foreign matter in the stomach was studied. All patients were male, and their age ranged from 28 to 46 years with the mean age of 32.2 years. All patients had the medical history of swallowing metal foreign matter in compulsory detoxification or imprisonment. The catheter was inserted into the stomach lead by guide wire lubricated by paraffine. Then the guide wire was withdrawn and a 2.6 m long guide wire was folded in the middle and was inserted into the sromach through the catheter. A loop was made on the guide wire, and the loop was controlled to to hitch the forigen mater, then the guide wire was drawn out slowly . Results A total of 12 metal foreign matters in the stomach in all 8 patients were taken out safely, and no comqlications occurred. Conclusion The interventional therapy for the metal foreign matter in the stomach is simply, minimal invasive, cheap, effective, and with little complication. This therapy is a clinic treatment, the patient is glad to accept, and is the ideal therapy for foreign matter in the stomach.

The accuracy and robustness of stimulating signals are critical important for implantable neural stimulators since they stimulate neurons directly. The characteristics and applications of stimulating signals were depicted in the paper. The principles and features of five common generation and regulation technology of stimulating signals for implantable neural stimulators were introduced. The technical characteristics of them were analyzed. Finally, the development of the implantable neural simulators was prospected.
