Objective To evaluate the diagnostic value and technique advantage of 16-slice CT angiography(16SCTA) in aortic dissection.Methods 39 cases of aortic dissection underwent 16SCTA.The data were reconstructed by multiplanar reconstruction(MPR),curved planar reconstruction(CPR),volume rendering(VR),maximum intensity projection(MIP),virtual endoscopy(VE),and generally analyzed in combination with original axial images.Results According to DeBakey's classification,DeBakey's type Ⅰ in 5 cases,type Ⅱ in one case and type Ⅲ in 33 cases were founed in the 39 cases.16SCTA clearly showed that including the ture and false lumen(39 cases,100%),intimal flaps(39 cases,100%),intimal tear(25 cases,64.1%),and thrombus inside the false lumen(17 cases,43.6%).Conclusion 16SCTA may be as the first choice method in diagnosis of aoric dissection,and which is considered as having great value.

Objective To study the CT signs of bronchotracheal transparent foreign body and its diagnostic value.Methods The X-ray and CT findings of bronchotracheal trasparent foreign body in 46 cases were analysed comparativly.Results Among 46 cases,9 cases of trachea foreign body,13 cases of right bronchial foreign body,7 cases of left bronchial foreign body,2 cases of both sides of bronchial foreign body were showed directly by CT,and 8 cases of right bronchia foreign body,6 cases of left bronchia foreign body,1 case of both sides of bronchia foreign body showed indirectly on CT,the sensitivity was 100 percent,while the foreign body and its anatomical location could not be showed on X-ray film,but the indirect signs just like pulmonary emphysema,obstructive pulmonitis and drowned lung etc,could be showed by X-ray films in 34 cases.In another 12 cases were negative,the sensitivity was 73.9 percent.Conclusion The transparent foreign body can not be showed but indrect signs by X-ray film;While CT scan can not only shows the anatomical location of foreign body,but also the shape and size of the foreign body,it offers more information than X-ray films and has important refering value to clinicians to take out the foreign body.

[Objective]To observe the degradation process of PDLLA in the intervertebral fusion.[Method]Twenty goats were divided into 4 groups as experimental group,and their L_(3~4)intervertebal spaces were implanted with PDLLA cage containing pieces of graft bone.Animals were sacrificed at 4,8,12,16 wks and specimens were taken for observation of the degradation process and bone fusion by gross observation and electronic microscope.Another 12 goats were used as normal fusion control group.Their L_(3~4)space were grafted with bone block for fusion.[Result]The degradation rate was non-lineal.In the early stage of fusion,the main degradation and decrease of molecular weight was shown at the superficial decomposition.With the proceeding of fusion and degradation,as the kydrolyzation speeding-up,internal decomposition by self-catalyse resulted into the collapse and total disassemble of the PDLLA.The PDLLA cage maintained its shape in the early stage and its biomechanical strength decrease in late stage but was still enough to keep the structure from collapse,till the fusion was achieved in the bone implant area.[Conclusion]The velocity of degradation of PDLLA is slower than the speed of bone regeneration of bone fusion,so the PDLLA cage could provide sufficient support during the process of intervertebal fusion and is a suitable choice of degradative material for cage in the intervertebal fusion.
