Objective To compare the body fluid count results detected by Sysmex XE-5000 automatic blood cell analyzer and manual method .Methods A total of 300 cases of body fluid specimens (including cerebrospinal fluid and fluid of serous cavity ) were analyzed .RBC ,WBC counting and classification were respectively detected by XE-5000 and manual method of improvement Neubauer counting plate .Results The fresh specimens without contain a large number of cell clusters ,which RBC counts(RBC-BF)(100-10 000)× 106/L ,and WBC counts(WBC-BF) (9-50)× 106/L ,showed there were a linear relationship between the in-strument method(r=0 .998 5 ,0 .986 3) .In the range ,there was no significant difference between XE-5000 and manual method(t=9 .96 ,P>0 .05) .Also in this range the results of instrument correlated with those of manual method(r= 0 .989 3 ,0 .971 7 , 0 .924 9) .For those specimens which contain a large number of cell clusters ,RBC-BF and WBC-BF were a badly linear relationship between the instrument method(r=0 .564 8 ,0 .456 1) .Conclusion Body fluid specimens which are fresh and do not contain a large number of cell clusters ,in the range of RBC-BF (100 -10 000) × 106/L ,WBC-BF (9 -50) × 106/L ,Sysmex XE-5000 automatic blood cell analyzer could ensure the results have good accuracy .

Objective To establish an ELISA method for detection of the concentration of TAP in human urine samples.Methods TAP-BSA was used as coating antigen. The TAP was a competitor to TAP-BSA. They reacted to the limited amount of monoclonal antibody against TAP.Results The optimal concentration of the coating antigen was 250ng/ml.The dilutions of monolclonal antibody against TAP and sheep anti-mouse IgG were 25?g/ml and 1∶4 000 respectively. The optimal range was from 0.69 to 1 000ng/ml.The assay provided a sensitivity of 0.69ng/ml.The coefficients of variation of intra-assay and inter-assay were 9.10% and 10.33% respectively. The average recovery rate of TAP was 97.70%.Conclusion The indirect competitive enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay is established.

Objective To study the angular dependence of four different mammographic dosimeters to monoenergetic X-ray beams and observe the variation tendency in angular dependence to different energy X-rays and to discuss the evaluation of average glandular dose(AGD)in digital breast tomosynthesis(DBT)system.Methods One ionization chamber and three semiconductor dosimeters were exposed by four kinds of beam quality.The signal of each dosimeter was tested over an angular range of 0° to 90°.The dosimeters were exposed for three times at each selected angular position.The measurement at each angle was normalized to the appropriate measurement at perpendicular incidence.Results The responses from all the dosimeters had a maximum at 0° and decreased with increasing angles.When the radiation incidence angle was 10°,the angular dependence were 0.99,0.99,0.96 and 0.96 for dosimeters A,B,C and D,respectively.And the angular dependence decreased to 0.96,1.00,0.78 and 0.52 when the incidence angle was up to 25°.For semiconductor dosimeters,no signal was recorded when incidence angle was beyond 45°.For ionization chamber,the magnitude of the angular dependence generally decreased with increasing energy.Conclusions All of the dosimeters will underestimate the dose if used in DBT.In order to minimize the error due to the rotation angle of X-ray tube,correction factor of mammography dosimeter should be used for the measurement of AGD in DBT systems.

Objective To study the dosimetric characteristics of two different radiochromic films used to estimate peak skin dose(PSD) of patients.The characteristics of these two films were investigated and compared after exposure to ionizing radiation in the diagnostic energy range,including post-exposure gray growth,sensitivity,energy dependence and dose response.Methods GafChromic XR-RV3 film and KODAK EDR2 film were exposed to air kerma 800 mGy free-in-air using five X-ray beam qualities (60,80,100,120 and 140 kVp) in a SSDL.The measurement for each energy was normalized to 80 kV to analyze energy dependence of films.The films were calibrated to different dose level (0.025-10 Gy) onphantom by 80 kV X-rays.The response curve were plotted to analyze sensitivity and dose response.The films were scanned with Epson V750 commercial flatbed scanner.Color channel analysis was performed.Results The post-exposure gray growth of XR-RV3 film was found to be fairly stable.The change were 2％,4％,6％ at 24 h,72 h and 6 weeks after exposure respectively.EDR2 film was found to be more sensitivity than XR-RV3 film in low dose.The energy response of the XR-RV3 film and EDR2 film were within 9％ and 23％ over the clinical diagnostic x-ray energies,respectively.In the dose range of 0.025-10 Gy,for the XR-RV3 film,the red channel with the dose response curve was most obvious.For EDR2 film,the pixel value of three color channels was coincident.The EDR2 film appeared to be saturated when receiving doses greater than 500 mGy.Conclusions The XR-RV3 film is superior to EDR2 film in gray growth,energy dependence,dose-response and other aspects.This film is very suitable for measuring and analyzing PSD of patients in interventional radiology procedures.
