Objective To discuss the matual benefit of imagiological methods of thoracic and lumbar spine.Methods There were 129 cases with acute truma of thoracic and lambar spine,CT and trditional X-ray wee done in all cases,of them MRI were performed in 27 cases.Results In 129 cases fracturesof the vertebral body were in 144 with totally 156 regicns,of that,84 were injury of spinal canal and 72 were spinal canal stenosis.27 cases performed by MRI,all stewed spinal cord injury.Conclusion In acute truma of the thoracic or lumbar vertebral column, traditional X-ray is a basic method,CT is of mutaral benefi,while MRI is the best to diagnose spinal cord injury.

Objective To evaluate the diagnostic value and technique advantage of 16-slice CT angiography(16SCTA) in aortic dissection.Methods 39 cases of aortic dissection underwent 16SCTA.The data were reconstructed by multiplanar reconstruction(MPR),curved planar reconstruction(CPR),volume rendering(VR),maximum intensity projection(MIP),virtual endoscopy(VE),and generally analyzed in combination with original axial images.Results According to DeBakey's classification,DeBakey's type Ⅰ in 5 cases,type Ⅱ in one case and type Ⅲ in 33 cases were founed in the 39 cases.16SCTA clearly showed that including the ture and false lumen(39 cases,100%),intimal flaps(39 cases,100%),intimal tear(25 cases,64.1%),and thrombus inside the false lumen(17 cases,43.6%).Conclusion 16SCTA may be as the first choice method in diagnosis of aoric dissection,and which is considered as having great value.

Objective:To study the value and advantage of color Doppler and cervical multi-slice spiral CT (MSCT) in the diagnosis of cervical lymphadenopathy.Methods:A total of 130 patients with cervical lymphadenopathy diagnosed and treated in the Chenzhou First People′s Hospital from January 2019 to December 2020 were selected and received color Doppler ultrasound examination and MSCT examination. The results of pathological examination were used as the gold standard to compare the efficacy of the two methods in the differential diagnosis of benign and malignant cervical lymphadenopathy.Results:Ultrasound examination of malignant lymph nodes showed irregular boundaries, uneven internal hypoecho, and abundant blood flow signals in lymph nodes; ultrasound examination of benign lymph nodes showed uniform fine dot echo, uniform growth of endothelial medulla, clear and smooth boundary, no blood flow signal or scattered dot blood flow signal. The MSCT images of malignant lymph node showed irregular shape, blurred edge, obvious and uneven enhancement and higher rate of calcification. The aspect ratio of lymph nodes in benign lymph node was significantly higher than that in malignant lymph node (2.14 ± 0.48 vs. 1.92 ± 0.43), and the maximum blood flow velocity (V max), resistance index (RI) and blood flow (BF) in systolic period were significantly lower than those in lymph node [(21.38 ± 3.61) cm/s vs. (23.17 ± 2.55) cm/s, 0.62 ± 0.14 vs. 0.71 ± 0.17, (48.82 ± 13.51) ml/(min·100 g) vs. (65.61 ± 14.64) ml/(min·100 g)], there were statistical differences ( P<0.05). The most common blood flow types was lymphatic hilum type in benign lymph node, the proportion was 51.79% (29/56), while the most common type in malignant lymph node was marginal type and central type, the proportion was 44.59% (33/74) and 25.68% (19/74). The sensitivity, specificity, accuracy and Kappa value of ultrasound combined with MSCT in diagnosis were 92.86%, 95.95%, 94.62% and 0.890. Conclusions:Both color Doppler ultrasonography and MSCT can differentiate the benign and malignant of cervical lymph node lesions with better parameters such as lymph node imaging characteristics and blood flow distribution pattern, but the combined diagnosis has higher sensitivity, specificity and accuracy.
