Objective To explore the interactive teaching model for CT imaging based on PACS, and provide the clinician and young radiologist with continued medical education. Methods 100 M trunk net was adopted in PACS and 10 M was exchanged on desktop. Teaching model was installed in browse and diagnosis workstation. Teaching contents were classified according to region and managed according to branch model. Text data derived from authoritative textbooks, monograph , and periodicals. Imaging data derived from cases proved by pathology and clinic. The data were obtained through digital camera and scanner or from PACS. After edited and transformed into standard digital image through DICOM server, they were saved in HD of PACS image server with file form. Results Teaching model for CT imaging provided kinds of cases of CT sign, clinic characteristics, pathology and distinguishing diagnosis. Normal section anatomy, typical image , and its notation could be browsed real time. Teaching model for CT imaging could provide reference to teaching, diagnosis and report. Conclusion PACS based teaching model for CT imaging could provide interactive teaching and scientific research tool and improve work quality and efficiency.

Objective To compare the consistency and correlation of multiple breath-hold (BH) with respiratory-triggered (RT) 1H-MRS for quantification of hepatic lipid content. Methods Sixty subjects were underwent RT 1H-MRS of the liver (Couinaud segment VII) and BH 1H-MRS at 1.5 Tesla Magnetic Resonace Imaging (MRI). The peak areas of water and methylene obtained on RT and BH 1H-MRS were recorded respectively and the liver fat fraction was calculated. Pearson correlation coefficient , Bland-Altman 95% limit of agreement, and concordance correlation coefficient were calculated. Results Mean liver fat fraction measured in RT and BH 1H-MRS were (8.6 ± 8.7)% and (9.4 ± 9.3)% respectively. There was a strong correlation between RT and BH 1H-MRS(r = 0.973, P < 0.000 1, concordance correlation coefficient = 0.95). With the Bland-Altman method, 91.7% data points were within the 95% limits of agreement. Conclusion RT and BH 1H-MRS are alternative tools for intrahepatic lipid quantification. These two methods have a strong correlation and perfect consistency.

Objective:To compare and analyze the clinical efficacy of laparoscopic microwave ablation and laparoscopic hepatectomy in the treatment of hepatic hemangioma.Methods:The clinical data of 98 patients with hepatic hemangioma admitted to the Hepatobiliary Center, the First Affiliated Hospital of Nanjing Medical University from June 2019 to June 2023 were retrospectively analyzed, including 20 males and 78 females, aged 24-69 years. According to the surgical method, they were divided into two groups: laparoscopic microwave ablation group (ablation group) with 34 cases, and laparoscopic hepatectomy group (resection group) with 64 cases. The differences in intraoperative and postoperative recovery related indicators, follow-up and prognosis between the two groups were compared and analyzed.Results:The operative time and blood loss in the ablation group were (90.6±21.8) min and (60.3±40.8) ml, respectively, which were lower than those in the resection group (128.7±30.0) min and (165.8±212.7) ml, and the differences were statistically significant ( t=-6.54, -2.86, P<0.001, P=0.005). There were 5 cases (14.71%) of residual lesions in the ablation group and none in the resection group, with a significant difference between the two groups ( χ2=0.01, P=0.003). The ablation group was superior to the resection group in hospital stay, drainage tube removal time and postoperative pain, with statistical significance (all P<0.05). On the 1st and 3rd day after surgery, the levels of alanine aminotransferase, aspartate aminotransferase, total bilirubin and direct bilirubin in ablation group were lower than those in resection group, and the differences were statistically significant (all P<0.05). In the ablation group, there were 14 cases of hemoglobinuria (41.2%), 2 cases of abdominal hemorrhage (5.9%), 0 cases of bile leakage and 6 cases of pleural effusion (17.7%), while in the resection group, these complications were 2 cases (3.1%), 18 cases (28.1%), 11 cases (17.2%) and 32 cases (50.0%), respectively, and there were statistical significance between the two groups (all P<0.05). In terms of prognosis, there was both one recurrence in each group (2.9% vs. 1.6%), with no significant difference ( χ2=1.00, P=0.653). Conclusion:Compared with laparoscopic hepatectomy, laparoscopic microwave ablation has obvious advantages in terms of operation time, intraoperative blood loss, hospital stay, postoperative pain and complications.
