Objective To investigate the predictable value of susceptibility weighted imaging (SWI)in hemorrhagic transforma-tion (HT)of ischemic stroke.Methods 48 patients with ischemic stroke were involved.The presence and features of HT on CT, T1 WI,DWI and SWI were observed,as well as the distribution and signal features of cerebral microbleeds (CMBs),abnormal visi-bility of venules on SWI sequence.The correlation between those imaging findings and HT were analyzed.Results HT was detected in 19 of 48 patients (39.6%).The sensibility of T1 WI,DWI,SWI in detecting HT were 68.4%,36.8%,100%,respectively.HT was significantly associated with abnormal visibility of venules within the infarction region.The incidence of HT greatly increased with the aggravation of CMBs.Conclusion SWI can be a sensitive predictor for HT,and it’s helpful in making clinical strategy for ischemic stroke.

Objective To assess the quality of coronal multi-planar reconstructed versus direct coronal scan images and to confirm whether the multiplanar reconstructed image can replace coronal scan.Methods One hundred and sixteen patients with orbital and paranasalsinuses disease were examined with GE Lightspeed plus 4 slices helical CT.All patients had transvers scan,and the coronal multiplannarreconstructed images were reformatted basis on transverse scan.All reformatted and scanned images were evaluated by the senior radiologists.Results In 116 cases,simultaneously multiplanar reconstructed images were performed in 60 cases,the quality of reformatted coronal imageswas similar to direct coronal scan in revealing normal anatomy and lesions of orbit and paranasal sinuses,all images were excellent andimaging quality was grade Ⅰ.54 cases couldn't be undergone direct coronal scan but reformatted coronal images also acquired the effect of diagnosis(32 cases were grade Ⅰ and 3 cases were grade Ⅱ on quality).Conclusion Direct coronal scan can be substitued by multiplanar reconstruction of multi-slice helical CT scan for orbit and paranasal sinuses.

OBJECTIVETo explore the clinical effect of the lobulated medial sural artery perforator flap in repairing soft tissue defect in hand or foot.

METHODSSince March 2012 to September 2014, 6 cases with soft tissue defects in hands or feet were treated by lobulated medial sural artery flaps pedicled with 1st musculo-cutaneous perforator and 2st musculo-cutaneous perforator of the medial sural artery. The size of the flaps ranged from 4.5 cm x 10.0 cm to 6.0 cm x 17.0 cm.

RESULTS5 cases of lobulated flap survived smoothly, only 1 lobulated flap had venous articulo, but this flap also survived after the articulo was removed by vascular exploration. All flaps had desirable appearance and sensation and the two-point discrimination was 6 mm in mean with 4 to 12 months follow-up (average, 7 months). Linear scar was left in donor sites in 3 cases and skin scar in 3 cases. There was no malfunction in donor sites.

CONCLUSIONSLobulated medial sural artery perforator flap is feasible and ideal method for the treatment of soft tissue defect in hand or foot with satisfactory effect.

Objective To explore the changes and meaning of bilateral posterior cingulate cortex,hippocampus, precuneus, posterior cerebelum lobe to al the other parts of the whole brain for T2DM and T2DR patients.Methods The differences of functional connectivity strengthen expressed were calculated and analyzed between seed points to al the other parts of the whole brain after rs-fMRI scan by two sample t-test. Also The correlations of the functional connectivity with clinical parameters were discussed.Results The functional connectivity had changed between some seed points and other brain regions comparing T2DM to controls and T2DR to T2DM. The changed functional connectivity were also correlated with clinical parameters.Conclusion The changed brain regions of T2DM and T2DR were relevant to emotion, memory, cognitive and visual control.
