Background and purpose:Although FDG tumor imaging has been applied in clinic widely, dual-phase imaging can provide much more information about the FDG uptaking of pulmonary lesions. The purpose of the study was to evaluate the usefulness of dual-phase18F-FDG coincidence detection SPECT/CT imaging in the differential diagnosis of the pulmonary lesions.Methods:There were 28 patients with pulmonary lesions which were detected by CT. All the patients undertook the SPECT/CT imaging at 2 time-phases respectively: early imaging at 40-60 min and delayed imaging at 2-3 h after the intravenous injection of FDG. Data processing: calculating the radio of T and N in early and delayed imaging respectively; T: The radioactive count of the lesions; N: The radioactive count of the normal tissue; and the change rate:ΔT/N. ROC was used to ifnd out the threshold of T1/N1, T2/N2及ΔT/N in the differential diagnosis between benign and malignant lesions. AUC was used to evaluate the diagnosis value of the dual-phase and single-phase imaging.Results:The threshold of T1/N1 in early imaging was 2.65, whereas AUC was 0.767. The sensitivity, speciifcity and accuracy were 83.3%, 30% and 64.3%, respectively. The threshold of T2/N2 in delayed imaging was 3.14, whereas AUC was 0.847. The sensitivity, speciifcity and accuracy were 94.4%, 60.0% and 82.1%, respectively. The threshold ofΔT/N in delayed imaging was 16.9%, whereas AUC is 0.950. The sensitivity, speciifcity and accuracy were 88.5%, 71.4% and 86.2%, respectively.Conclusion:Dual-phase18F-FDG coincidence detection SPECT/CT imaging has much higher accuracy and speciifcity. However it still has false positivity, and should be analyzed with CT and clinical history.

6, 39 cases were with 3～6, 13 cases were with the number less than 3. The diameter of stones was 0.5～1.2 cm. Five cases suffered from bile leakage, 2 cases from peritonitis and 2 cases from remnant stones in the common bile duct. Forty-one patients were followed up and doing well. Conclusions Surgical approach is choosen on the basis individually. Laparoscopic common bile duct exploration for gallstone concomittant with choledocholithiasis is safe.

Objective To investigate the relationship between TCM syndrome of hyperlipidemia and indexes such as age,sex,BMI,TC,TG,LDL-C,HDL-C,ApoA,ApoB,the vascular media,coagulation and inflammatory indices.Methods 200 patients of hyperlipidemia recruited from the cadre ward in hospital were made TCM syndrome differentiation according to Guiding principles for the clinical study of Chinese Medicines.SPSS16.0 statistical software were adopted for analyzing the relation between TCM syndrome and indexes such as age,sex,BMI,TC,TG,LDL-C,HDL-C,ApoA,ApoB,the vascular media,coagulation and inflammatory indices.Results ①)There are no differences TCM syndrome and the indexes of age,sex,TC,TG,HDL-C,LDL-C,VLDL-C,lipoproteins,the vascular media,coagulation and inflammatory indices.②Compared with the liver kidney yin deficiency syndrome group,apolipoprotein A was higher in the groups of qi stagnation and blood stasis,phlegm stagnation syndrome,and hyperactivity of Yang due to yin deficiency syndrome,the difference was statistically significant; while APOB showed no difference among the groups.Conclusion TCM syndrome of hyperlipidemia had no relation to indexes of age,sex,body mass index,blood lipid,and blood coagulation.The study found a correlation between hyperlipidemia and phlegm and Qi deficiency,which can provide a theoretical basis for syndrome differentiation of TCM.

Transcranial Doppler combined with flow imaging technique can conveniently,nonin- vasively and accurately detect the blood flow in large intracranial vessels.It has practical signifi- cance in the diagnosis and treatment of cerebrovascular diseases.This article reviews the appli- cation of transcranial color-coded sonography(TCCS)in cerebrovascular diseases.

Objective:To study new dosage form of Bingpeng powder referring to oversea patent. Methods: To disperse Bingpeng powder, adhesive and viscosity builders (such as gelatin, carboxymethylcellulose, hypromellose or carbomer), nonionic emulsifier (gluceryl monostearate) and white vaseline into liquid paraffin, stir to attain paste. The formulation was screened by adhesive strength, shape keeping characteristic and water asorbing value. Results: The better formulation: Bingpeng powder 5.0g, hypromellose 21.0g, carbomer 14g, gluceryl monostearate 3.0g, white vaseline 7.0g, liquid paraffin to 100.0g; the paste getting rabbits' artificial ulcers healed more quickly than powder does. Conclusion: The paste is applied more expediently and more effective for oral ulcer.

Objective To detect the changes of renal hemodynamics, radionuclide renal dynamic imagings were performed in patients with type 2 diabetes millitus (DM) in different stage. Methods Fifty seven patients with type 2 DM were divided into 3 groups according to the value of urinary albumin excretion rate (UAER). (1)GroupDM1:UAER200 ?g/min, 20 cases. 99m Tc DTPA and 99m Tc EC renal dynamic imagings were performed in the type 2 DM patients of 3 groups and 20 normal controls (NC). Glomerular filtration rate (GFR), effective renal plasma flow (ERPF) and renogramweregainedsimultaneously.Results GFR and ERPF were significantly increased in group DM1 than those in NC (P

ObjectiveTo assess the value of endoscopic retrograde cholangiography(ERC) before laparoscopic cholecystectomy(LC) for gallstone disease complicated by suspected cholelithiasis. MethodsIndications for ERC included history of jundice, pancreatitis,abnormal liver function, suspected or BUS proven cholelithiasis. ResultsA history of jaundice( P

Objective To investigate the efficacy of minimally invasive percutaneous nephrolithotomy(MPCNL) for impacted upper ureteric calculi.Methods Retro-urethral catheterization was conducted in the diseased ureter under cyctoscope.After a channel from the skin surface into the middle calyx was established under the guidance of X-ray or B ultrasonography,pneumatic lithotripsy was conducted to break up stones under ureteroscopy.Results The success rate of pneumatic lithotripsy was 100%.The rate of postoperative macroscopic hematuria was 55.1%(27/49).The symptom lasted one to three days in 26 cases,and 1 case had apparent hematuria with blood clot flowing out from nephrostomy tube,which lasted 8 days.10.2%(5/49) of cases was complicated with postoperative pyrexia.The stone-free rate in one week and one month postoperatively was 93.9%(46/49) 98.0%(48/49),respectively.Follow-up observations in 49 cases for 1-12 months(mean,5 months) showed no major complications.Conclusions MPCNL for impacted upper ureteral calculi has the advantages of simple performance,less complications and satisfactory efficacy.
