Objective To probe the application value of radionuclide bone imaging in pre-treatment selection of therapeutic plan and regular post-treatment follow-up of patients with primary pulmonary cancer.Methods 810 patients with primary pulmonary cancer had radionuclide bone imaging respectively before the treatment. The follow-up radionuclide bone imaging was performed in 492 cases that were treated by surgery in 2 years after the operation. For 318 cases that were treated by non-surgery way,only 142 cases that had no skeletal metastases had follow-up radionuclide bone imaging in 2 years after the treatment. Results 179 cases (22.1%) had skeletal metastases in 810 cases. Multiple skeletal lesions were found in 157 cases and single skeletal lesion found in 22 cases. The majority sites of skeletal metastases were ribs, vertebrae column and pelvis. 57 cases that were treated by surgery had new skeletal lesions in 2 years after the operation. For non-surgery patients,79 cases had new skeletal lesions in 2 years after the treatment. Conclusion Radionuclide bone imaging is useful in the selection of therapeutic plan and staging of primary pulmonary cancer before the treatment.Regular bone imaging after the operation is helpful to detect early bone metastasis and choose the therapeutic plan, and should be regarded as a foremost method to detect the skeletal lesion. Radionuclide bone imaging after the non-surgery treatment maybe help us to conclude the prognosis of the patients.

Nine primers were designed for the full-length genome of O/CHINA/99 and each sequence fragment was obtained by RT-PCR, and cloned into pOK12 vecter, the full-length genome cDNA clone of O/CHINA/99 was identified by restriction enzymes digestion, PCR, and the whole genome sequencing. The results showed that the O/CHINA/99 whole genome was formed with the length of 8200 nt. The nucleotide sequence of the full-length cDNA shared 99.1% homology with its prototype. RNA synthesized in vitro by means of a bacteriophage T7 promter inserted in front of the cDNA led to the production of infectious particle upon transfection of BHK-21 cell using lipofectamine reagent, as shown by cytopathic effects. The rescued virus had high pathogenicity in mice by endermic infection too. All the results showed that an infectious molecular clone was successfully constructed and rescued virus could be obtained.
