Along with the increasing medical image data,it is imperative to set up an effective system about medical image retrieval.Essentially,the image classification is crucial for medical image retrieval.As a distribution pattern of image gray scale,texture is an important character.Wavelet multi-scale decomposition is essentially multi-channel filtering and its multi-resolution analysis structure is identical with human visual system.So the extraction of texture feature under different resolutions after multi-band wavelets transform is of great benefit to image recognition and image retrieval.Consequently,this paper designs an image classification method based on eight-band wavelet.This method solves the key technology in the medical image retrieval,and it gains very high classification rate.

Objective To study the correlation between the CT features of tumor blood supplies and the pathological changes in primary hepatocellular carcinoma (PHCC). Methods Fifty cases with surgically and pathologically proved PHCC underwent spiral CT scanning (plain+dual phase). One research group blindly evaluated the CT films obtained. According to tumor contrast enhancement and signals showed on CT, the patterns of PHCC was divided into 4 types: arterial blood supplying, portal blood supplying, arterial combining with portal blood supplying, and poorly blood supplying. Microscopically, PHCC was respectively classified into grade I to Ⅳ with Edmonson′s standard, and into 4 types (trabecular, pseudoglandular, compact, scirrhous) with WHO histological grading standard. At last, the CT features of tumor blood supplies were correlated with pathologic changes. Results 36(72%) cases were supplied by hepatic arterial blood, 6(12%) by arterial combining with portal blood supplying, 4(8%) by portal, and 4(8%) were poorly blood supplying. The patterns of tumor blood supplies in PHCC correlated with tumor cells differentiation ( P

Objective To systematically review the effect of team-based learning (TBL) versus the traditional lecture-based learning (LBL) teaching model on basic medical courses in undergraduate medical education. Methods The CNKI, VIP and Wanfang medical databases were electronically searched to retrieve randomized controlled trial studies on TBL applied in undergraduate basic medi-cal courses up to June 2014. In these studies TBL teaching model was used in experiment group with LBL teaching model as control group and course grades were adopted to evaluate the effect of learn-ing. Literature screening, data extraction, and quality assessment were performed in strict accordance with the inclusion and exclusion criteria, and then data were analyzed using RevMan 5.3 software. Results This Meta-analysis examined 12 studies, all of them with low quality at C level. Meta analysis shows that the score of the course of TBL teaching is better than the traditional LBL teaching, and the difference is statistically significant [weighed mean difference (WMD): 9.33, 95%CI (5.67, 13.00), P=0.000]. Conclusion Compared with the LBL teaching, the application of TBL teaching in medical undergraduate basic medical courses has the promotion effect, but need more rigorously randomized controlled trials to verify.

Objective To investigate the application of multi-detector row spiral CT(MDCT)and multi-planer reconstruction(MPR)in identify the anatomy detail of normal adult groin region.Methods We retrospectively collected the CT images of 50 adult subjects with normal groin anatomic structure underwent groin region thin-slice MDCT scans between July and December 2009,30 males and 20 females,obtained the coronal and sagittal views by MPR,investigated the value of different plans in identifying anatomic detail.Results Bilateral inferior epigastric artery(100/100,100%),spermatic cord(60/60,100%),and round ligament of uterus(40/40,100%)were well identified on all plans in all subjects.The bilateral "radiological femoral triangle" could be demonstrated on coronal views in all subjects(100/100,100%).The bilateral inguinal ligament were visible on coronal view in all subjects(100/100,100%)and on sagittal views in 34 subjects(68/100,68%),but on axial views was identified in 3 male subjects(6/100,6%).The bilateral inguinal canal and deep inguinal ring were reliably visible on coronal views in all subjects(100/100,100%),and on sagittal views in 46 subjects(92/100,92%).On coronal views,the widths of inguinal canal was(0.97?0.35)cm in left,(0.89?0.23)cm in right for males,and(0.62?0.11)cm in left,(0.71?0.11)cm in right for females.No significant difference was found between two sides(P=0.059 in males,P=0.067 in females),but there were significant differences between males and females(P=0.007 in left,P=0.009 in right).Transverse diameter of deep inguinal ring was(1.32?0.31)cm in left,(1.31?0.36)cm in right for males,and(1.07?0.35)cm in left,(1.07?0.30)cm in right for females.No significant difference was found between two sides(P=0.344 in males,P=0.638 in females),but there were significant differences between males and females(P=0.001 in left,P=0.002 in right).Conclusion MDCT with different plans plays an important role in identify the anatomic details of groin region,the coronal views especially.
