Objective To evaluate the function imaging ability and dose for whole organ imaging of Aquilion ONE 320 Slice CT.Methods Aquilion ONE 320 Slice CT adpoted wide volume imaging mode to acquire 4D dynamic imaging results,then the expose dose was compared with that of 64 slice CT.Results 320 slice CT,with advantages in dynamic volume imaging and function imaging when compared with traditional spiral CT,restrained its organ time resolution to 0.35s,and thus the acquisition time and exposure dose was decreased.The motion artifact was reduced and image quality was enhanced.Conclusion 320 slice dynamic volume CT,with zero phase delay,can realize CT 4D function imaging.

Objective To explore the effect of two different position fixing methods on position deviation of different directions and lesions in patients with lung cancer receiving radiotherapy .Methods 100 cases were randomly selected and divided into the two groups .Group A included 50 cases using thermoplastic membrane and group B included 50 cases using vacuum cushion .Position deviations of different directions and lesions of the two groups were observed and compared .Results The forward and backward directions′position deviation of group A was significantly lower than that of group B(t=3.67,P=0.00).The total position deviation of group A was significantly lower than that of group B(t=2.83,P=0.00).The position deviation in the middle of lung field of group A was significantly lower than group B(t =4.26,P=0.00).The repositioning cases of group A accounted for 30.00%(15/50)and group B accounted for 56.00%(28/50).The difference was significant (χ2 =6.90,P=0.00).Conclusion Using thermoplastic membrane as position fixing method in patients with lung cancer receiving radiotherapy can reduce position deviation .

Objective To analyze the characteristics of dysplasia in patients with myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS),and identify the risk factors for evolution of MDS to acute leukemia.Methods According to the WHO criterion 2008 of MDS,98 cases were included.As the characteristics of dysplasia,cell morphology,cytogenetics and flow cytometry were analyzed in these patients.Results To the last follow-up,27 of 98 patients transformed to acute myeloid leukemia,including M2 (15 cases),M4 (10 cases),M6 (2 cases).Patients with abnormal Pelger-Hu(e)t had significantly higher risk for evolution of MDS to leukemia,when compared to those without Pelger-Hu(e)t (23/67 vs 4/36,x2 =4.87,P =0.03).Auer corpuscle and small nuclear pathological were also the risk factors of developing to leukemia (19/37 vs 8/61,x2 =16.87,P =0.000; 21/57vs 6/46,x2 =9.14,P =0.003,respectively).37 patients died,the median suvival time was 26 months (95 ％ CI 13-38) for patients with abnorrnal Pelger-Hu(e)t,19 months (95 ％ CI 11-26) for patients with Auer corpuscle,13 months (95 ％ CI 6-19) for patients with small nuclear pathology,respectively (x2 =11.05,13.04,21.05,P =0.001,0.000,0.000).Conclusion Abnormal Pelger-Hu(e)t,Auer corpuscle and small nuclear pathology are indentified as the risk factors for evolution of MDS to leukemia,and they are the infavorable predictors of survival.

Objective To examine the heating capability of thermoseeds in isolated hepatic tissues.Methods Isolated hepatic tissues were heated uniformly to 37 ℃,meanwhile the thermoseeds and thermocouples were planted using a template paralleling with the magnetic line.Afterwards,the tissues were treated in an extracorporeal magnetic field of 120-123 gauss at a frequency of 113-116 kHz for 30 minutes.At the meantime,the temperature was recorded by a computer through thermocouples. Results The temperature of the tissues raised markedly with a largest change of 14 ℃.The heating area became hard and showed a gradual change of color(white-yellow-brown).The final temperature was negatively correlated with distance when using same number of the thermoseeds(r=-0.96017 to-0.99767,P=0.0023 to 0.0398),and positively correlated with the number of thermoseeds when measuring at a same point(r=0.93775 to 0.99270,P=0.0007 to 0.0185)except for the center group(r=0.93936,P=0.0606).Conclusions Thermoseeds inductive heating technology can achieve an appropriate temperature in isolated hepatic tissues.In certain extent,the temperature increase the number of thermoseeds and heating distance.

Objective The Improved segmental arch technique can effectively intrude incisors and correct deep overbites. To research its biomechanical characteristics, we reconstruct 3D nonlinear finite element model of mandibular teeth with improved segmen-tal arch, study the biomechanical characteristics and the suitable loading force of intrusion arch. Methods Combined with the re-sults of previous research, we complete the reconstruction of 3D nonlinear finite element model of mandibular teeth with improved seg-mental arch.Then, we set loading force of intrusion arch five conditions from 0.2 N~0.6 N, calculate the movement trend and stress distribution of improved segmental arch. Results In the five conditions of improved segmental arch, lateral incisors and canines in-truded and tipped labially, first molars tipped distally and rotated. In addition, the moment the initial loading force of intrusive arch in-creased, the movement of these teeth increased. However, other teeth did not move clearly. When the initial loading force of improved segment arch was 0.5 N, it can achieve appropriate intrusion of anterior teeth. Conclusion Under an appropriate intrusive force, improved segment arch can effectively intrude incisors and control the extrusion of posterior teeth. It can be used to correct the deep overbites, especially with high mandibular planes, gummy smile or adult stage.

This study was aimed to objectify Color Inspection in Traditional Chinese Medicine (CITCM). A quantita-tive system for CITCM was designed and developed. The entire system included two parts, which were the hardware and the software. The hardware was an image acquisition device in a standard lighting condition. The software was used for digital image processing. The chromaticity of facial special region (SR) corresponding to five internal organs were calculated. The system was carried out by taking 100 samples of people. It was concluded that the experiment verified the effectiveness of the system in objective study of CITCM. It can be used as basis for the further study on CITCM.

Objective To explore the setup errors of two different position fixing techniques in radiotherapy for thoracic canc -er, and analyze and compare the accuracy and repeatability of the two different techniques .Methods Sixty four patients with thoracic cancer were selected in our hospital from December 2011 to June 2013 .All patients received radiotherapy .Patients were divided into two groups by means of random number table .Each group had 32 cases.The low-temperature thermoplastic membrane group used ther-moplastic membrane method to fix position while vacuum bag group with negative pressure fixed position by vacuum bag method .The setup errors in the right/left direction (X-axis), anterior/posterior direction (Z-axis), head/foot direction (Y-axis) and three dimen-sional directions ( I) were compared and analyzed between the two groups .Results The low-temperature thermoplastic membrane group was able to reduce the setup errors significantly in the Z-axis (1.13 ±0.33 /2.33 ±1.24, P <0.05).The differences of setup errors in X-axis, Y-axis and I between the two groups were not significant ( P >0.05).Conclusions Position fixing technique with low-temperature thermoplastic membrane can help to fix position in radiotherapy for thoracic cancer , reduce the setup errors in the Z-axis, and improve the setup accuracy .
