Objective To assess the value of CT in diagnosis of recurrent rectal carcinoma.Methods Forty seven patients who had undergone locally curative surgery were examined by CT.All patients received intravenous contrast medium and two oral doses and a intrarectal doses of 500 ml 3% Ultravist were given.The characters of benign and malignant lesions were analysed in order to evaluate the value of the classification on CT in the differentiation of benign masses from malignant ones.Results 26 local recurrences occurred in 47 cases,including 13 cases with an round preasacral mass,8 cases with an irregular rectal wall thickening,2 cases with a flat preasacral mass,3 cases with a preasacral mass with low attenuation.The degree of enhancement of local recurrent masses was higher than that of benign masses.Conclusion The features of recurrence of rectal carcinoma on CT is an round or irregular asymmetrical preasacral mass or an irregular rectal wall thickening.It is useful way in diagnosis of recurrence of rectal carcinoma.

Objective To summarize and analysis CT characteristics of traumatic adrenal hematomas.Methods There were 22 cases ofadrenal hematomas.The size, distribution and density of the adrenal hematomas on CT scanning, and the complications of other visceralinjury were analysed.Results 23 adrenal hematomas were found in 22 cases, of them,16 were in right,6 in left and 1 in bilateral. Conclusion CT has high value in diagnosis of the adrenal hematomas.

Objective To observe IL-2 and IL-6 changes in the breast tumor Bcap-37 cells reated by hematoporphyrin nonomethyl ether mediated photodynamic therapy (HMME-PDT).Methods Cells in logarithmic growth phase were collected among breast cancer cells cultured in conventional methods.According to blank control group or the experimental group (laser irradiation group,photosensitive agent group and HMME-PDT group),PDT in addition to HMME and HMME-PDT were conducted.The changes of IL-2,IL-6 were detected by radioimmunoassay.Results After HMME-PDT,IL-2 was increased as time passed.After 12,24 and 48 h,compared with IL-2 level in the control group,in laser irradiation group or photosensitive agent group,the levels of IL-2 in HMME-PDT group was significantly differences (P ＜ 0.05).But IL-6 levels decreased.The most obvious changes of IL-6 levels happened at 12h and 24h.There was significant differences between IL-6 in HMME-PDT group with the control group,laser irradiation group or photosensitive agent group (P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion HMME-PDT maybe have destruction effect by altering IL-2,IL-6 activity on breast tumor cells,which provides objective indicators for clinical patients to regulate immune function and auxiliary diagnosis.

Objective To assess the value of contrast-enhanced computed tomography (CT) in the differentiation of benign solitary pulmonary nodules(SPN) from malignant ones.Methods Thirty-seven patients with solitary pulmonary nodules(≤3 cm phi)were examined by contrast-enhanced CT.Qualitative and quantitative characters of benign and malignant lesions were analysed after administration of Ultravist in order to evaluate the attenuation value of contrast-enhanced CT in the differentiation of benign SPN from malignant ones .Results A threshold value of 30 HU was selected on enhanced CT images to distinguish malignant( CT value≥30 HU)from benign( CT value

Objective To study the clinial application value of MR dispersion arthrography in meniscus tear of knee.Methods The conventional MR scans of 24 knee joints in 24 patients who were considered to have meniscus tear were performed and followed by MR dispersion arthrography.All cases were approved by arthroscope or operation.The results of both convention MR scan and MR arthrography were compared with arthroscope and operation.The sensitivity and the specificity of plain MR scan and MR dispersion scan were evaluated respectively.Results The signal intensity in the area of meniscus tear was obiously highen on MR dispersion scan than that of MR plain scan.The sensitivity was improved from 74.2% to 94.3% ,and the specificity improved from 88% to 94.3%.Conclusion MR dispersion scan is superior to convention MR scan in image quality and sensitivity in detecting meniscus tear.

Objective To investigate the MR features of adenomyosis and its diagnostic value.Methods Forty-six patients with suspicious adenomyosis underwent preoperative ultrasound and MR exam.Inversion recovery sequence(IR)T 1-weighted images and turbo spin echo sequence(TSE)including T 1-weighted and T 2-weighted images were adopted.All patients were performed with contrast enhancement.Comparative analysis between MRI findings and pathology results was done. Results The diagnostic specificity,sensitivity and accuracy of MRI was 100%,94.74% and 97.14% respectively.The effect of MRI for diagnosis of adenomyosis was better than that of US significantly.All cases showed enlargement of uterus with regular contour.Diffuse and local thickening of junctional zone or low signal intensity lesion in outer myometrial layer was found on T 2-weighted images,sometimes bright foci observed in lesion on T 2-weighted images or on T 1-weighted images.Conclusion MRI has high value in gualitative diagnosis and localization of adenomyosis.It can be used as an important complementary method to ultrasound.

Objective To analyze the MRI manifestations of meningeal carcinomatosis, and to investigate the value of MRI in diagnosis of meningeal carcinomatosis.Methods The MRI data of 28 cases with proven meningeal carcinomatosis were reviewed retrospectively.Results 11, 8 and 25 cases were detected respectively on pre-contrast T 2WI and T 1WI of SE sequence , and post-contrast T 1WI.According to the manifestations of post-contrast MRI, meningeal carcinomatosis were divided into two types: dura-arachnoid enhancement(7 cases) and pia-subarachnoid space enhancement(18 cases) in accordance with the standard of Meltzer.Conclusion MRI, especially the post-contrast MRI is a reliable modality in diagnosis of meningeal carcinomatosis. Double dosage of contrast medium and thin slice thickness can provide more informations.

Objective To discuss the imaging diagnostic value using seven division for dystopic thymomas in mediastinum. Methods 11 cases of dystopic thymomas proved by biopsy and histopathology were analyzed based on chest radiography, computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) .Results According to nine division, 3 cases located in left mid-middle and mid-inferior mediastinum, 4 cases in right mid-middle and mid-inferior mediastinum, 4 cases in right ante-middle and ante-inferior mediastinum.While according to seven division,all cases (11) located in ante-inferior mediastinum. Conclusion Seven division of mediastinum is of great value in diagnosing dystopic thymomas and in guiding clinical management.

Objective To investigate the early diagnostic value of serum neuron‐specific enolase(NSE) in neonaal hypoxic‐is‐chemic encephalopathy(HIE) .Methods Eighty full term neonates with HIE in the neonatology department of our hospital from January 2013 to June 2014 were selected as the observation group and contemporaneous 30 full term neonates without perinatal as‐phyxia as the control group .Serum NSE was detected within 24 h after birth and after 2‐week comprehensive treatment(mainly in‐cluding 10 d ganglioside therapy) .The neonatal patients were divided into the mild HIE in 18 cases ,moderate HIE in 48 cases and severe HIE 14 cases according to the HIE severity .The control group was performed the serum NSE detection within postnatal 24 h .Results The serum NSE level in the mild ,moderate and severe HIE groups was significantly higher than that in the control group(P<0 .05) .The re‐detected results of serum NSE after 2‐week comprehensive treatment in the mild ,moderate and severe HIE groups were significantly decreased when compared with those at admission ,the differences were statistically significant(P<0 .05) .Conclusion Serum NSE is a sensitive biochemical indicator for early diagnosing neonatal HIE ,and also reflect the severity of neonatal HIE .

Objective To evaluate the correlation between the irradiation dose and superparamagnetic iron oxide (SPIO) enhanced MR imaging of the irradiated liver. Methods 25 rabbits were separated randomly into 5 groups. 3 days after focal irradiation (0, 10, 20, 30 and 40Gy), MR imaging was performed before and after SPIO injection with TSE-T 2W sequence, and the number of Kupffer cell containing SPIO particles was counted. The characteristics of MR enhancement were evaluated according to the pathological findings.Results The liver injury induced by no less than 30Gy irradiation can be detected by SPIO-enhanced T 2 weighted imaging (P
