Both the concept and characteristics of materials circulation management in hospital are expounded.In order to implement materials circulation management in hospital,it is proposed that not only the outside resources should be utilized rationally,but the control of internal materials circulation links should be strengthened,and specially the purchasing and storage management should be highlighted.According to the experience of materials circulation management,it is very necessary to carry on internal materials circulation management in hospital.Any improvement in any link will play a driving role in the improvement of the management level of the hospital.At meantime,the scientific system of internal logistics management should be set up and improved constantly in hospital.

Objective To explore the diagnosis value of dual energy CT in severity analysis of acute pancreatitis.Methods Pancreas CT perfusion images of 60 patients were formatted using the method of Siemens dual energy CT.According to the severity of the acute pancreatitis,60 patients were divided into 3 groups:normal control (NC)group,mild acute pancreatitis (MAP)group and severe acute pancreatitis (SAP)group.Every group had 20 patients.Blood flow(BF),blood volume(BV),permeability of capillary surface (PS)and mean transit time(MTT)were calculated by Siemens MMWP workstation post process software.The meaning of these CT perfusion parameters for severity of acute pancreatitis was analyzed.Results Compared to the NC group,BF and BV in MAP,SAP group were reduced significantly (P <0.01).BF and BV in MAP group were higher than those in SAP group (P <0.01).PS in MAP,SAP group were higher than that in NC.MTT had no difference in three groups(P >0.05).We also found in ≥45 years old patients,MTT in both MAP and SAP groups were higher than NC group(P <0.05).Conclusion (1)BF and BV are useful in diagnosis of acute pancreatitis and analysis of severity of it.(2)PS is useful in diagnosis of acute pancreatitis.(3)MTT is useful in diagnosis of acute pancreatitis in elderly patients (≥45 years old).

Objective: To prospectively compare single-shot (SS) echo-planar imaging (EPI) and field-of-view optimized and constrained undistorted single-shot multiplexed sensitivity-encoding (FOCUS MUSE) for diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) in evaluating thyroid-associated ophthalmopathy (TAO). Materials and Methods: SS EPI and FOCUS MUSE DWIs were obtained from 39 patients with TAO (18 male; mean ± standard deviation: 48.3 ± 13.3 years) and 26 healthy controls (9 male; mean ± standard deviation: 43.0 ± 18.5 years). Two radiologists scored the visual image quality using a 4-point Likert scale. The image quality score, signal-to-noise ratio (SNR), contrast-tonoise ratio (CNR), and apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) of extraocular muscles (EOMs) were compared between the two DWIs. Differences in the ADC of EOMs were also evaluated. The performance of discriminating active from inactive TAO was assessed using receiver operating characteristic curves. The correlation between ADC and clinical activity score (CAS) was analyzed using Spearman correlation. Results: Compared with SS EPI DWI, FOCUS MUSE DWI demonstrated significantly higher image quality scores (P < 0.001), a higher SNR and CNR on the lateral rectus muscle (LRM) and medial rectus muscle (MRM) (P < 0.05), and a non-significant difference in the ADC of the LRM and MRM. Active TAO showed higher ADC than inactive TAO and healthy controls with both SS EPI and FOCUS MUSE DWIs (P < 0.001). Inactive TAO and healthy controls did not show a significant ADC difference with both DWIs. Compared with SS EPI DWI, FOCUS MUSE DWI demonstrated better discrimination of active from inactive TAO (AUC:0.925 vs. 0.779; P = 0.007). The ADC was significantly correlated with CAS in SS EPI DWI (r = 0.391, P < 0.001) and FOCUS MUSE DWI (r = 0.645, P < 0.001). Conclusion FOCUS MUSE DWI provides better images for evaluating EOMs and better performance in diagnosing active TAO than SS EPI DWI. The application of FOCUS MUSE will facilitate the DWI evaluation of TAO.
