Objective To evaluate the appl ication of CT perfusion in intra-axia l disease. Methods By applying a nuclear medicine data processi ng technique to the time-density data obtained from dynamic CT, cerebral tissue perfusion was p e rformed in 8 cases, 4 with normal findings, 2 with ischemic cerebrovascular dise ase, and 2 with gliomas. Cerebral blood perfusion maps was created and analyzed, absolute regional cerebral blood volume, regional cerebral blood flow, and mean transit time were determined and analyzed as well. Results Wit h regard to var ious degrees of perfusion impairment within the ischemic territory, thus giving rise to a very heterogenous appearance. As a rule, the center of a lesion usuall y representing the core of ischemia showed marked reduction of blood flow. At th e outer margin of a tumor area, the reduction of CBF and CBV was often less pron ounced, indicating some residual flow via collaterals, as was confirmed by the b olus delay on the time to peak time. Conclusion In the near fut ure, functional imaging techniques should have a major impact on therapeutic decision-making i n acute stroke patients, perfusion CT may be recommended even now for emergency applications in daily patient care due to its practicability.

For uncontrolled hemorrhagic shock the traditional method and target of resuscitation may be harmful. The existing data supported a strategy of less aggressive interventions to those shock with uncontrolled hemorrhage until a decisive surgery begin. The choice of liquor for resuscitation remains in controversy. A combined application of crystalloid and colloid liquor seems to be reasonable and may be accepted by most physicians. It should be noted that the new resuscitation strategy may not be suitable to some kinds of trauma, such as traumatic brain injury, and its long-term effects on to the prognosis should be further evaluated.

Objective To explore the role of human urinary trypsin inhibitor(UTI) in severe acute pancreatitis (SAP). Methods UTI was highly purified from the urine of patients with acute pancreatitis by column chromatography. SAP models were established by injection of 5% sodium taurocholate(NaTc) at dose of 0.1 ml/100 g weight under pancreatic capsule. The interleukin 6(IL 6) level in each group was measured by ELISA. Results ① The highly purified UTI with high yield was harvested. ② SAP models were established successfully. ③ The level of IL 6 in SAP group was significantly higher than that in NC, but in UTI group, the increase was not obvious. Conclusion The alleviating effect of UTI on the pathological damage degree in rats with SAP is related to the inhibitive effect of UTI on the expression of IL 6.

Objective To investigate the feasibility of achieving consistent image quality with dose reduction technology in lumber spine MSCT examination with Z-axis automatic tube current modulation (ATCM). Methods Forty-eight patients diagnosed as lumber intervertebral disc protrution scanned twice by MSCT before and after interventional operations with the same coverage from third lumbar vertebra to first sacral vertebra. The first scan (FM) was with fixed tube current of 320 mAs. The follow-up scan was with ATCM with noise index (NI) of 12.0 HU. At the levels of L3-4, L4-5 and 15-S1, image quality, image noise and radiation dose were measured and analyzed. Image quality and radiation dose were compared by paired t-test and the image noise was compared by ANOVA test. Results The dosage of the ATCM had a 31.3% reduction compared with FM, the average DLP was(187.9±66.4)mGy·cm and(273.4±45.4) mGy·cm respectively, where t = 8.205, P < 0.05. The average noise and their deviations for the FM group were (9.8±2.4) HU,(9.9±2.4) HU, and (11.5±3.2) HU at level of L3-4, L4-5, 15-S1, respectively. With ATCM, the average noise was(12.0±0.8) HU, (11.7±0.6) HU, and (11.7±1.4) HU, respectively. There was statistical difference between the two groups (F = 23.31, P < 0.05). The image quality scores for the FM group were (4.7±0.3), (4.5±0.2), (4.5±0.2) and showed no statistical difference to ATCM group (4.6±0.3), (4.5±0.2), (4.5±0.2) at level of L3-4, L4-5, L5-S1, respectively, where t = 1.000, P > 0.050 Conclusion ATCM technique with the noise index setting at 12.0 HU can achieved a 31.3% dose reduction while keep the consistent image quality for lumbar spine MSCT study.
