Objective To investigate the application of a self-made positioning device in CT-MRI image fusion in patients with laryngeal tumor,as well as the precision of image fusion and the changes in target volume delineation after fusion.Methods A total of 10 patients with laryngeal cancer were enrolled,and a self-made positioning device was used to collect CT and MRI images in a fixed position.These images were fused by mutual information combined with manual fusion.The precision of image fusion was assessed by the positional deviation of internal and external markers and degree of gross tumor volume (GTV) overlap (PCT-MRI) between CT and MRI images.GTV was contoured based on CT images (VCr),MRI images (VMRI),and fused images (VCT+MRI).The overlapped volume of VCT and VMRI(VCT-MRI) Was calculated,and the target volume was analyzed and compared.Results The positional deviations of three external markers in the three directions were 0.996±0.222 mm,1.146±0.291 mm,and 1.368±0.298 mm (P=0.000),respectively,while those of the internal markers were 0.476±0.151 mm,0.561±0.083 mm,and 0.724± 0.125 mm (P=0.000),respectively.VCT,VMRI,VCT+MRI,and VCT-MRI were 26.355±7.876 cm3,33.556± 7.407 cm3,40.036±7.627 cm3,19.875±8.588 cm3(P=0.000),respectively.PCT-MRI was 73.7％±9.8％.Conclusions The self-made positioning device can improve the consistency of position during the collection of CT and MRI images,and fused CT-MRI images can provide more information and improve the precision of target volume delineation.

Objective To explore the effects of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) on viral myositis in mice. Methods Four-week-old BALB/C male mice were randomly divided into normal control group, myocarditis group, and BMSCs intervention group at different stages (3 days and 2 weeks). The mouse model of viral myocarditis was established by intraperitoneal injection of Coxsackie virus B3. The mice in the intervention group were injected with BMSCs in the tail vein at 3 days and 2nd week after the injection of the virus. Four weeks later, echocardiography was performed, and the pathological integral and collagen volume fraction (CVF) were observed and calculated by light microscopy. The qRT-PCR method was used to detect the mRNA expression of homogenates collagen I (col1α1) and collagen fiber III (col3α1) in myocardial tissue. Results Compared with the normal control group, the left anterior and posterior wall became thinner, the diameter and volume of the left ventricle at end systolic period was increased; left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) and short axis shortening rate (FS) decreased in the myocarditis group. The differences were statistically significant (P all<0.05). The LVEF and FS in each subgroup of the intervention group were better than those of the myocarditis group, and the improvement in the intervention group was more obvious at the 2nd week after the treatment of the myocarditis. The differences were significant (P all<0.05). Light microscope showed that myocardial CVF in myocarditis group was higher than in normal control group, and CVF in intervention group was reduced compared with myocarditis group and CVF in the 2nd week intervention group was lower than that in the 3 day intervention group. The differences were significant (P all<0.05). Compared with the control group, the mRNA expressions of col1α1 and col3α1 in the myocarditis group were increased, and they were lower in the intervention group than in the myocarditis group, and the differences were significant (P all<0.05). Conclusions BMSCs can reduce the degree of cardiac fibrosis and improve cardiac function in mice with viral myositis, and the intervention effect is better when the virus is infected in the 2nd week.

Objective To research the influence of autoclave sterilization on elastic module and flexural strength of five types of posts.Methods Shidelong carbon,glass and quartz fiber post,tenax glass fiber post and Anthogyr titanium post were chosen,and all the samples were divided into two groups which included five subgroups according to the model of posts,each subgroup including six samples.Experimental groups were autoclave sterilized(50 min at 134℃ and 2.2MPa),While the control groups were not.With three point loading system,elastic module and flexural strength of all the samples were measured.Results were statistically analyzed to find the difference between them.Results There was no statistical difference between Shidelong carbon,glass,quartz fiber post and Tenax glass fiber post in elastic module and flexural strength in both experimental group and control group,while Anthogyr titanium post gained the highest elastic module and flexural strength.Paired-samples t test also showed there was no statistical difference between experimental group and control group in elastic module and flexural strength.Conclusion Fiber posts perfectly meet the need of clinical use on flexural strength.Furthermore,with elastic module similar to dentin and much lower than metal posts,fiber posts will help to protect the remaining tooth structure from fracture.Autoclave sterilization has a little influence on elastic module and flexural strength of posts,which allows practitioners to systematically sterilize the posts in clinic.

Objective:To establish the determination method for four lurasidone hydrochloride enantiomers by HPLC. Methods:Lurasidone hydrochloride enantiomers were separated on a CHIRALPAK AD-H column (250 mm × 4. 6 mm, 5μm). The mobile phase consisted of hexane-ethanol-diethylamine ( 90∶10∶0. 1) at a flow rate of 1. 0 ml·min-1 and the column temperature was at 40℃. The detection wavelength was 230nm. Results:The resolution of lurasidone hydrochloride enantiomers was above 2. 0. The linear calibra-tion curves were obtained over the range of 5-120 μg· ml-1 for all the enantiomers (r=0. 999 9). The recovery was above 99. 0%with RSD below 0. 5%. The detection limits were 5ng. Conclusion:The method is simple, accurate and rapid, and suitable for the de-termination and quality control.

Objective To investigate the way to accurately delineate gross tumor volume (GTV) of high grade gliomas(HGG) for intensity modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) by using computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) image fusion technique. Methods CT and MRI images were fused from 19 patients. The GTV of each patient were independently delineated by one chief doctor and one resident doctor on CT and MRI image. The GTV contoured on CT (GTVCT), MRI (GTVMRI) were measured, and composite volumes (GTVCT+MRI) were the sum of CT-defined GTV and MRI-defined GTV. The differences of these volumes were compared. Results Whether chief or resident doctors delineated, all were GTVMRI ＞GTVCT(P ＜0.050). The percentages of GTVMRI on GTVCT+MRI were (98.57±7.00)% by chief doctors, and (97.84±10.00)% by resident doctors. Compared the difference between GTVCT and GTVMRI in postoperative patients and preoperative patients, P =0.046, and the difference between chief doctors and resident doctors was statistically significant for GTV defined by CT (P =0.020), but not by MRI and composite image (P ＞0.050).Conclusion The GTV of HGG patients must be delineated on both CT image and MRI image, including using CT and MRI image fusion. But the composite volumes(GTVCT+MRI) should be the sum of CT-defined GTV and MRI-defined GTV. Especially for the postoperative patients,delineating GTV should be taken more attention. And the GTV should be delineated by doctors with full experiences.
