Objective: To evaluate the quality of life of schizophrenic patients spouses living in the community. Methods:One hundred schizophrenic patients spouses and 60 control subjects were adminstered the General Quality of Life Inventory (GQOLI). Results: The schizophrenic patients spouses reported significantly lower score on the quality of life than the controls in the domains of physical health, mental health, social function and economic condition. The characteristics of disease played an important role in the quality of life. Conclusion: The quality of life of schizophrenic patients spouses were poorer than that of control subjects.

The implementation of artificial intelligence courses in medical colleges is of great significance to the cross-integration of artificial intelligence and medical fields. However, there are problems such as the lack of basic knowledge of artificial intelligence, the lack of closely related teaching materials, and the difficulty in copying the teaching mode of medical courses. Based on the above problems, through the establishment of artificial intelligence course in our school, the teaching implementation process and teaching effects have been summarized and analyzed, aiming at exploring the artificial intelligence curriculum system which is suitable for medical undergraduate students, so as to improve the students' ability of using artificial intelligence technology for medical project practice, promote the combination of medical and engineering, and provide reference for the teaching reform of undergraduate artificial intelligence courses in medical colleges at home and abroad.

Objective To study on how to remove the background in the digital images of visible human body.Methods After removing most of the background with standardized thresholds segmentation,we did identification,connection and noise-removing work against the edge around the target verge,and then the results of these two methods were combined to get the final image.Results Complex segmentation technology based on edge and thresholds effectively removed the background in the image of human body.Conclusion Compared with other segmentation algorithm,the algorithm presented here has better practical effect.

Objective To provide morphological data for image diagnosis and mediastinal surgery planning.Methods Cross-sectional images of fresh tissues from the first Chinese visible female human data-set were reviewed and the main structures of the superior mediastinum were confirmed on a section-by-section basis.The positional rule of the main structures in various plane of superior mediastinum was found out,and a few key sectional images were selected and compared with the relative images of CT or MRI,and the relative data on the cross-sectional images were collected.Results The cross-sectional images of the first Chinese visible female human fairly displayed the aortic arch and its 3 large branches,superior vena cava,left and right brachiocephalic veins,azygos vein,pulmonary trunk,trachea,esophagus,thoracic duct and so on,as well as their relationship clearly.Conclusion The first Chinese visible female human dataset can almost provide complete and accurate data.

Objective To find out the best orientations and sections in diagnosing tetralogy of Fallot using multiplane transesophageal echocardiography(TEE).Methods The visible heart was compared with the images of multiplane TEE to determine the best orientations and sections in the multiplane TEE for tetralogy of Fallot.Results The best orientation and section of pulmonary artery and its branches in multiplane TEE was the pulmonary artery viewed at 0? from the upper part of esophagus;that of ventricular septal defect and aortic overriding were five chambers viewed at 0? from the middle part of esophagus or the left ventricle long-axis view at 135? from the middle and end parts of the esophagus;that of the right ventricular outflow tract stenosis and the right ventricular hypertrophy was the right ventricular outflow tract long-axis viewed at 45? from the middle part of esophagus.Conclusion The best orientations and sections in TEE based on the visible heart are helpful to simplify the operation procedure of multiplane TEE and to shorten the examination time.

Objective To establish a digital segmentational data set of larynx based on Chinese visible human (CVH). Methods Magnetic lasso and polygon tools of Photoshop were used to segment the small organs and structures of larynx of CVH to establish the segmentational data set of larynx. After conversion of the image format, the segmentational structures were extracted automatically with Thresholding Method and presented 3-D visualized, and then were checked up by its result of 3D reconstruction with Amira 4.1 software. Results Many small structures of larynx were segmentated, such as laryngeal cartilage, laryngeal muscles, vocal cords and so on. Then the segmentational data set of larynx based on CVH was established, which can be used to 3-D reconstruction accurately. Conclusion The segmentational data set of larynx is accurate and integrated, which is helpful to establish the elaborate model of larynx and can provide the method of color image segmentation.

Objective Calcified epithelioma is a rare benign tumor in head and face. It is seldomly seen canceration. But it has local invasion behavior. The aim of this study was to explore the methodology in the diagnosis and treatment of calcified epithelioma in head and face, and to improve the accuracy of clinical diagnosis. Methods A retrospective analysis was carried out in 26 patients with calcified epithelioma in head and face. Results 53. 8 % patients with calcified epithelioma were less than 13-year-old. The disease was easily misdiagnozed. In this group of patients the misdiagnosis rate reached to 42. 3 %. Btype ultrasonographic diagnosis possessed a high level of concordance with histological diagnosis. There were three major types of calcified epithelioma: type 1, a mass with internal echoic foci; type 2, a hyperechoic mass with high beam; type 3, no calcification in the parenchyma. Piomatricoma was described as a skin tumour histologically composed of shadowcells, basophillic cells, foreign body giant cells and intracellular and stromal calcification. The treatment was excision and no recurrences were found by followup. Conclusions It is important for clinicians to know the clinical features of calcified epithelioma. Imaging studies including ultrasonography would help establish the diagnosis. Surgical excision with clear margins is recommended for this tumor.

Objective To establish a 3D digitized visual model of the liver to provide anatomical structure for planning hepatic operations and creating accurate computer simulations of the liver.Methods Transverse sections of abdomen were chosen from the Chinese Visible Human dataset. The liver was reconstructed in three dimensions with surface rendering in combination with volume rendering reconstruction. Results Accurately segmented images of the main structures of liver were completed. The reconstructed structures could be displayed singly, in small groups or as a whole and could be continuously rotated in 3D space at different velocities. Conclusion The reconstructed liver is realistic and demonstrates the natural shape and exact position of hepatic structures. It provides an accurate model for the automated segmentation algorithmic study and a digitized anatomical model of the liver.

Objective To study the sectional anatomy of the cardiac septum to provide the reference for clinical imageology and surgery. Methods Sixteen normal adult hearts without organic lesions were verified macroscopically. After vascular perfusion, the specimens were embedded with gel, fixed with 5% formalin, and cryopreserved for a week, and then were sectioned with the Digital Sectioner. Results A total of 1 608 slices (thickness: 0.2 mm) of the heart were obtained. Cardiac septum and the surrounding structures were shown clearly. The demarcation of connective and muscular tissues was clear. The diameters of the cardiac apex, fossa ovalis, brawny intraventricular septum, left ventricle, right ventricle, left and right fibrous trigone were measured with Photoshop6.0. Conclusion The clear images can display tiny structures that could be measured, which could provide anatomical references clinical imageology and surgery.
