Objective To assessed the image quality and diagnostic value of the coronary artery diseases with 64-slice spiral computed tomography (64-SCT) angiography. Methods A retrospective image analysis of 39 patients who were diagnosed with coronary heart disease by both the 64-SCT and the invasive coronary angiography (CAG). Results In 507 coronary artery segments (13 coronary segments for each patient),1-,2-,3-class image quality by 64-SCT were in 185 (36.5%),236 (46.5%),86 (16.9%) segments respectively,and the heart rate range was respectively 62?5,66?4 and 75?10 per minute. Totally 421/507 (83.1%) segments that were of 1-,2-class image quality,met the requirements of clinical diagnosis,whereas 86/507 (16.9%) segments could not be sufficiently evaluated because of severe calcifications (51/86,59.3%) and/or motion artifacts (35/86,40.7%). Taking CAG as the gold standard diagnostic technique for coronary heart disease,of the lesions≥50% stenosis by 64-SCT (without any exclusion criteria),the overall sensitivity,specificity,accuracy,positive predictive value,and negative predictive value were 89.8%,94.9%,93.3%,88.5%,95.5%,respectively. Conclusion Our results indicate high diagnostic accuracy of coronary artery disease by 64-SCT compared to CAG. 64-SCT is a simple,convenient,safe and reliable,non-invasive effective method for diagnosis of coronary heart disease.

In order to control the quality of Vigna radiata, the quality control method and standard were established in this study. The tests of water content, ash and ethanol-soluble extractives of V. radiata were carried out according to the methods recoded in appendix of Chinese Pharmacopeia (2010 edition, volume 1). The TLC method was established by using vitexin and isovitexin as references, and a mixture of acetate-method-water (10: 1.7 : 1.3) as the developing solvent system on GF254 thin layer plate. The contents of vitexin and isovitexin were determined by HPLC on a Prevail C18 (4.6 mm x 250 mm, 5 microm) column, using acetonitrile: water (23 : 77) as mobile phase at a flow rate of 1.0 mL x min(-1). The column temperature is 30 degrees C and the detection wavelength is 337 nm. As a result, vitexin, isovitexin and the other constituents were well separated on TLC detected under the UV light (254 nm). The methodology validation for the assay of vitexin and isovitexin presented that they were in good linear correlation in the ranges of 6.12-98 mg x L(-1) and 6.85-109.6 mg x L(-1), with the regression equations of Y = 46.213X - 7.100 (r = 1.000) and Y = 54.515X + 6.829 (r = 1.000), and the average recoveries were 98.2% (RSD 1.9%) and 97.2% (RSD 0.79%), respectively. The content ranges of vitexin and isovitexin from 25 different batches of V. radiata were 1.076-2.062 mg x g(1) and 1.127-2.303 mg x g(-1), respectively. suggesting that the qualities of V. radiata are relatively stable. The ethanol-soluble extractives, water content and total ash of 25 samples varied in the ranges of 13.27% - 18.46%, 9.59% - 12.43% and 2.63% - 3.53%, respectively. All of the above data proved that the established quality of control method V. radiata is specific and accurate, which can be used for the quality control of this drug.
