Objective To investigate the ability of single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) and MRI in detecting skull-base invasion in nasopharyngeal carcinoma. Methods Sixty-one patients with nasopharyngeal carcinoma received whole body and skull-base tomography SPECT, and nasopharynx and skull-base MRI before radiotherapy. The results were double-blind compared and evaluated. Results The overall positive rates of skull-base invasion detected by SPECT and MRI were 51% and 46% (P=0.508). In paitents with headache, cranial nerve palsy or both, the rates were 83% and 86% (P=1.000) ,80% and 80% (P=1.000), 88% and 94% (P=1.000), respectively. In patients with T1+T2 and T3+T4lesions,the rates were 22% and 0(P=0.031) ,74% and 82% (P=0.250) ,repectively. In patients with N0+N1and N2+N3lesions,they were 50% and 48% (P=1.000) ,53% and 40% (P=0.500) ,respectively. The conformation rate between SPECT and MRI was 85%. Binary Logistic regression analysis showed that T stage was a risk factor for positive SPECT(χ2=4.23,P=0.040, OR=3.04). Headache tended to be a risk factor for both positive SPECT and positive MRI (χ2=3.13, P=0.077, OR=4.54;χ2=3.64,P=0.056,OR=12.00). Conclusions The detection sensitivity of SPECT in skull-base invasion in nasopharyngeal carcinoma is equivalent to that of MRI. The consistency between SPECT and MRI is good. Moreover, there is a good correlation between SPECT and symptoms, signs and stage. SPECT of skullbase tomography is necessary for patients with severe headache, negative CT and those who can not receive MRI. When SPECT result is positive,skull-base should be considered to be invaded and should be defined as gross tumor volume in radiotherapy planning.

A 54-year-old female patient with congenital heart disease had a persistent complete left bundle branch block three months after closure by an Amplatzer ventricular septal defect occluder. Nine months later, the patient suffered from chest distress, palpitation, and sweating at daily activities, and her 6-min walk distance decreased significantly (155 m). Her echocardiography showed increased left ventricular end-diastolic diameter with left ventricular ejection fraction of 37%. Her symptoms reduced significantly one week after received cardiac resynchronization therapy. She had no symptoms at daily activities, and her echo showed left ventricular ejection fraction of 46%and 53%. Moreover, left ventricular end-diastolic diameter decreased 6 and 10 months after cardiac resynchronization therapy, and 6-min walk dis-tance remarkably increased. This case demonstrated that persistent complete left bundle branch block for nine months after transcatheter closure with ventricular septal defect Amplatzer occluder could lead to left ventricular enlargement and a significant decrease in left ventricular systolic function. Cardiac resynchronization therapy decreased left ventricular end-diastolic diameter and increased left ventricular ejection fraction, thereby improving the patient’s heart functions.

Objective To evaluate the left ventricular diastolic function of patients with normal left ventricular ejection fraction ( LVEF) by echocardiography and real‐time cardiac catheter measurement ,and improve the accuracy and reliability of echocardiographic diagnosis . Methods One hundred and twenty patients with know n or suspected coronary artery disease w ho underwent coronary angiography and left ventricular catheterization were prospectively selected from July 2017 to January 2018 in the Affiliated Hospital of Jiangsu University . According to the left ventricular end diastolic pressure ( LVEDP) real‐time measurement ,the patients were divided into groups of LVEDP ≤15 mm Hg ( 43 cases ) and LVEDP ＞ 15 mm Hg ( 77 cases) . General data were compared and the difference of echocardiographic parameters between the two groups were analyzed ,and the ROC curve of each echocardiographic parameter for diagnosing LVEDP was draw n . Results T he parameters including flow propagation velocity ( VP) ,the ratio of filling fraction of E and A ( E/A) ,early diastolic filling deceleration time ( DT ) ,the duration of mitral A ( A‐dur ,) mitral annulus velocity at the septal side ( e′sep) ,systolic pulmonary venous flow velocity ( PVs) ,diastolic pulmonary venous flow velocity ( PVd ) and PVs/PVd were used to the diagnosis of the increasing of LVEDP ,however their accuracies were low ( AUC between 0 .5～0 .7) . T he parameters including left atrial volume index ( LAVI ) , tricuspid regurgitation ( T Rmax ) ,mitral annulus velocity in lateral wall of left ventricle ( e′lat ) ,average e′,E/e′sep ,E/e′lat ,average E/e′,velocity of pulmonary vein atrial reversal ( PVa) ,pulmonary vein atrial reversal duration ( Pva‐dur) ,the difference between the duration of pulmonary venous A wave and mitral A wave( PvaD‐AD) were also used to the diagnosis of the increasing of LVEDP , but their accuracies were still poor ( AUC between 0 .7～0 .9 ) . According to the real‐time left ventricular pressure measurement and different parameters of echocardiography ,the multivariate regression equation :LVEDP＝ 0 .292 LAVI + 0 .35 PVa + 0 .04 T Rmax + 0 .075 ( PvaD‐AD ) －0 .109 PVs －6 .773 was put forward as a correction standard ,the accuracy of the diagnosis of LVEDP was significantly improved ( AUC ＝0 .922) . Conclusions T he assessment of left ventricular diastolic function needs to be performed comprehensively with multiple parameters . T he multiple regression equation can accurately evaluate left ventricular diastolic function in patients with normal LVEF .
