Objective To discuss the ultrasonic features and diagnostic value of high frequency ultrasound in the diagnosis of the injury of triangular fibrous cartilage complex (TFCC) of wrist joint.Methods The ultrasonic features of 32 patients with pathology confirmed unilateral TFCC injury were retrospectively analyzed.The preoperative MRI and ultrasound data were complete.The difference between the two methods in diagnosis of TFCC injury were contrasted.Results The major ultrasonic features of the injure of TFCC included form swelled,structures disorganized,inhomogeneous echoes,irregular echoless in damaged place.The flow signals could be displayed from the tear opening edge of the injured TFCC by CDFI.Among 32 cases of TFCC injury,there were 26 cases (26/32,81.25％) diagnosed by ultrasound and 27 cases (27/32,84.38％) diagnosed by MRI.There was no significant difference in the detection rate of the two methods for TFCC injury (x2 =0.143,P=0.706).Conclusion High frequency ultrasound can be used to diagnose the injury of TFCC accurately,and can provide imaging evidence simply and rapidly for clinical therapy.

Objective To explore the feasibility of enhanced green fluorescent protein (EGFP) transfection into the joint synovial tissues of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) rats by ultrasound-mediated microbubble destruction.Methods Twenty-eight normal rats were established the RA rat model,four rats were control group,twenty-four rats were categorized into four experimental groups:EGFP,ultrasound +EGFP,microbubbles + EGFP,and ultrasound + microbubbles + EGFP.The last group was irradiated with ultrasound for 10 min after the mixture consisting of 300 μl Sono Vue and 10 μg EGFP was injected into the joint cavity.The rats were sacrificed after 3 days and the joint synovial tissues were collected for EGFP observation under fluorescence microscopy and quantitative analysis by real-time polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR).Results Comparing with control group,EGFP expression was observed in the rat joint synovial tissues from all groups.However,a strong EGFP expression was observed in the ultrasound + microbubbles +EGFP group.EGFP expression had no statistically significant difference (the P values were 0.89,0.93,and 0.82,respectively,P ＞ 0.05) in the EGFP,ultrasound + EGFP and microbubbles + EGFP groups.However,EGFP expression in the EGFP,ultrasound + EGFP,microbubbles + EGFP groups significantly differed (all P values were ＜0.01) from that in the ultrasound + microbubbles + EGFP group.Conclusions Ultrasound-mediated microbubble destruction can improve EGFP transfection efficiency into the joint synovial tissues of RA rats.

Objective To observe the bioeffects on the normal rats synovial with diagnostic ultrasound combined with different doses contrast medium. Methods Twenty normal cleaning level Wister rats were divided into 5 groups (each with 4 rats and 8 knees): ultrasound+100 μl contrast medium, ultrasound+200 μl contrast medium, ultrasound+300 μl contrast medium, ultrasound+500 μl contrast medium, a simple ultrasound irradiation (control group). Each group was irradiated with diagnostic ultrasound for 10 min. Rats were sacrificed after 1 week and joints synovial tissues were observed with pathological HE staining. Results In group ultrasound+100 μl contrast medium, ultrasound+200 μl contrast medium, ultrasound+300 μl contrast medium and control group, no significant damage in synovial tissues was found. In group ultrasound+500 μl contrast medium, synovial cells swelling, showing round, oval or polygonal, synovial tissues hyperplasia, arranged disorder, capillary proliferation, some muscle fiber structure dissolved fracture, inflammatory cell infiltration in the surrounding tissue were found. Conclusion Ultrasound combined with contrast medium can significantly enhance the bioeffects of synovial tissues, and the more the contrast medium doses, the more serious injury occurs in synovial tissues.

Objective Analysis of ultrasound guided percutaneous lung biopsy and ultrasound examina-tion results,to explore the application value of ultrasound in the diagnosis of benign and malignant lung mass. Methods Application of percutaneous biopsy guided by ultrasound in 109 cases by X-ray and CT examination revealed lung mass patients,analysis of biopsy results and ultrasonographic characteristics,biopsy success rate and complication also be observed. Results The experimental group of 109 cases comprised 98 cases of peripheral mass and 9 cases of central mass with pulmonary consolidation ,81 cases of malignant lesions(74.3％),26 cases benign lesions(23.9％),2 cases were falied(1.8％). 107 cases were success at first operation ,and 5 cases had hemoptysis( incidence 3.8％). The echo types of malignant lesions and benign lesions had significant difference(χ2=2.422,P<0.05),but both of them had intersecting. Malignant lesions were larger than benign lesions(t=1.58, P < 0.05),but the size of malignant lesions with benign lesions had intersecting. Patients with malignant lesions had more or abundant flow,patients with benign lesions had none or fewer flow(χ2=8.471,P<0.05). but they also had intersecting. Conclusions Ultrasonography of benign and malignant lesions in peripheral pulmonary mass and central type with consolidation has certain characteristics. Ultrasound guided percutaneous lung biopsy has major value in determining the pathological type of lung mass and it is safe ,reliable and easy to process.

Objective To evaluate the effect of ultrasound elastography and radiography in the assessment of hepatic fibrosis in chronic hepatitis B patients. Methods Seventy patients with chronic hepatitis B were en-rolled in our hospital from August 2014 to August 2016. Liver ultrasonography was performed in all patients. HAVTT1 and HAVTT2 were measured by visual method. SWV was measured by ultrasonic elasticity imaging. Re-sults With the increase of liver fibrosis,SWV test also increased,while HAVTT gradually shortened.The correct rates of HAVTT1 and HAVTT2 and SWV in the diagnosis of liver fibrosis were 72.36%,76.84% and 89.78%.The diagnostic accuracy of SWV was higher than that of HAVTT1 and HAVTT2,the difference was statistically sig-nificant(P<0.05).Conclusion Acoustic contrast measurement of HAVTT1 and HAVTT2 can reflect the chang-es of liver microcirculation,which is helpful to distinguish liver cirrhosis,fibrosis and no fibrosis. The measure-ment of SWV can reflect the difference of texture hardness of liver,which can be used as a kind of judgment on the degree and effect of hepatic fibrosis new method.
