Objective To discuss the features of MRI and differential diagnosis of cerebral fat embolism syndrome(CFE).Methods The features of MRI of 4 final diagnosis cases of CEF were retrospectively analysed.Results MRI showed that there were spotty and patchy high T_2-weighted signals and some of them were low or equal signals on T_1-weighted.These signals were distributed in bilateral centrum semiovale,corona radiata,thalamus,deep part white matter of brain along the lateral ventricle,the cortex of brain of watershed,collose,brain stem and the hemisphere of cerebellum.The position of these abnormal signals was symmetric in the rough.The figure of the MRI signals in the midbrain liked the reverse Chinese number "eight".Brain swelling was showed in 2 of 4 cases.Conclusion There are some features of the CEF on T_2-weighted of MRI,but the history,the physical signal and the results of laboratory must be considered,and must be differential diagnosed with the diseases liking diffuse axonal injury,etc.

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 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

After a description of the basic contents of Sichuan grass-root health information, health information systems at county level or below, and their roles and features, the key points of Sichuan grass-root health informa-tion construction program, progress and problems in Sichuan grass-root health information construction were stressed in discussion , with certain measures put forward for the solution of such problems .

Purpose To evaluate the diagnostic value of non-contrast-enhanced MR venography (NCE-MRV) for Budd-Chiari syndrome (BCS). Materials and Methods NCE-MRV and digital subtraction angiography (DSA) examination were performed in thirty-five patients with suspected BCS. The diagnostic agreement between them were compared. The sensitivity, specificity, accuracy, negative predictive value and positive predictive value were also calculated. Results In all 35 patients, 32 were diagnosed as BCS on DSA, and 33 on NCE-MRV. DSA showed inferior vena cava membrane stenosis in 8 patients compared to 10 on NCE-MRV;membrane obstruction in 7 compared to 6 on NCE-MRV, segmental stenosis in 3 compared to 4 on NCE-MRV;segmental obstruction in 10 compared to 10 on NCE-MRV, IVC thrombosis in 5 compared to 5 on NCE-MRV. The sensitivity, specificity, accuracy, negative predictive value and positive predictive value of NCE-MRV in diagnosing BCS were 100.0%, 67.8%, 97.1%, 100.0%and 96.9%, respectively. There was good intra-modality agreement (Kappa=0.89). NCE-MRV also demonstrated intra-hepatic collaterals in 30 patients, extra-hepatic collaterals in 27 cases, and accessory hepatic veins in 25 cases. Conclusion NCE-MRV has excellent diagnostic agreement with DSA in diagnosing inferior vena cava lesion in patients with BCS. It may be used in noninvasive diagnosis.

Objective To evaluate the utility of fluorescent dye SYTO 13 for high -resolution melting ( HRM) detection in single nucleotide polymorphism ( SNP) genotyping and its clinical application . Methods This is a performance verification study .36 genotype defined samples were divided into three groups:SNP rs3125734 C>T (class Ⅰ SNP) ,rs255758 A>C (class ⅡSNP) and rs688C>T.These samples were used to evaluate SYTO 13′s SNP genotyping capability of class ⅠSNP, classⅡSNP, and two PCR products of different lengths (52 and 107 bp) covering the same SNP of rs688C>T.The commercial HRM dye of LCGreen Plus was used as the control .The genotyping capability is indicated by the Tm difference(ΔTm) between wild type and homozygous mutant genotypes .The Tm differences between wild genotype and homozygous mutant genotype were compared using the Independent Samples t test.Paired t test was used to evaluate genotyping capability of the two dyes .The clinical applicability is evaluated by synchronously performing PCR amplification and HRM analysis on thirty -five randomly selected DNA samples with known genotypes of the three SNPs .Results The SNPs of class Ⅰ and class Ⅱ can be genotyped directly and clearly with SYTO13 (ΔTmclas Ⅰ =0.36 ±0.05,tclas Ⅰ =14.827,Pclas Ⅰ =0.000;ΔTm clas Ⅱ =0.42 ±0.110,tclasⅡ =9.539,Pclas Ⅱ =0.000).The classⅠSNP genotyping results was better using SYTO13 (ΔTmSYTO13 =0.39 ±0.027), while the SNP genotyping for small amplicon did not discriminated clearly in this study .Long amplicons of class ⅠandⅡSNPs can be identified directly except for several samples which can be genotyped accurately after having performed reexamination .Conclusion SYTO13 can apply for HRM analysis of genotyping classⅠand ⅡSNPs with long amplicon and for clinical routine detection.
