Objective To analyze the value of conventional T2WI combining with breath-hold Cartesian VIBE sequence, and compared with Blade combining with breath-free radial VIBE sequences in pre-operative T staging of potentiallly resectable esophageal carcinoma. Methods Sixty-five cases of esophageal carcinoma were concluded prospectively. All patients had received pathological examination of gastroscope biopsy before MRI. Patients received MR examination, including T2WI, breath-hold VIBE, Blade, and breath-free radial VIBE sequences. Two radiologists with more than five years experiences in the diagnosis of chest, performed T staging in MRIby referring to the the 7th edition of UICC-AJCC TNM classification. The results of MRI T staging and the postoperative pathological T staging were analyzed byχ2 test. Results Sixty-five patients were included. Diagnostic coincidence rates of the preoperative T staging by using conventional T2WI combining with breath-hold Cartesian VIBE sequences and Blade combining with breath-free radial VIBE sequences were 51%(33/65) and 88%(57/65) ,with 32 and 8 cases overstaging or understaging respectively, and the statistical differences were significant(χ2=20.80, P<0.05). The former diagnostic accuracy of esophageal carcinoma in situ, muscularis violation and esophageal fiber membrane were 42%(8/19), 54%(14/26), 55%(11/20), and the latter were 89%(17/19), 88%(23/26), and 85%(17/20). Conclusions Diagnostic coincidence rate of the preoperative T staging by using Blade combining with breath-free radial VIBE sequences is much higher than conventional T2WI combining with breath-hold Cartesian VIBE sequences. Blade combining with breath-free radial VIBE sequences could be used as non-invasive imaging method in preoperative T staging of potentially resectable esophageal carcinoma.

Objective: To assess intravoxel incoherent motion(IVIM) in evaluating and predicting response to neoadjuvant chemotherapy(NAC) in esophageal squamous cell carcinoma(ESCC). Methods: Forty-seven patients with ESCC diagnosed by pathological findings on biopsy from September 2015 to March 2017 were prospectively collected. All patients were examined before and after NAC using routine MRI scan and IVIM. The standard apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC_standard), diffusion coefficient (D), perfusion coefficient (D^*) and perfusion score (f) were measured. The patients were divided into complete response (CR), partial response (PR), stable disease (SD) and progressive disease (PD) according to the 1.1 version of the response evaluation criteria in solid tumors (RECIST). Thirty-one patients underwent surgery after NAC, and the patients were divided into TRG 0-3 according to tumor regression grade (TRG). The differences of parameter values before and after NAC between different groups were analyzed using Student's t test (normal distribution) and Wilcoxon rank sum tests (non-normal distribution). The parameters with statistical significance were evaluated by the receiver operating characteristics (ROC) curves. Results: The ADC_standard values before and after NAC were (1.97±0.51) ×10^-3, (2.42±0.52)×10^-3 mm²/s. The D values before and after NAC were (1.30±0.30)×10^-3, (1.63±0.35)×10^-3 mm²/s. The ADC_standard and D values after NAC were significantly higher than those before NAC, and the differences were statistically significant (t=-6.35, -5.25 respectively, both P<0.01). There were no statistical differences on D^* and f between before and after NAC (P>0.05). The patients were divided into PR group (29 cases) and SD group (18 cases) after NAC, without CR and PD patients. The ADC_standard, D and f values of PR group were significantly lower than those of the SD group before NAC (t=-3.11, -2.53 and -2.10 respectively, all P<0.05). The ADC_standard, D, D^* and f values after NAC revealed no significant difference between PR and SD groups. Thirty-one patients received operation after NAC, which were divided into TRG 2 group (14 cases) and TRG 3 group (17 cases) according to TRG standard, without TRG 0 and TRG 1 patients. All the parameter values before NAC revealed no significant difference between TRG 2 and TRG 3 groups. The D values after NAC in TRG 2 and TRG 3 groups were (1.81±0.31)×10^-3, (1.46±0.39)×10^-3 mm²/s respectively, and the significant difference was found between two groups (t=2.76, P<0.05). The efficiency of efficacy evaluation for NAC was the highest at D value of 1.68×10^-3 mm²/s, with sensitivity and specificity being 85.7% and 70.6%, respectively. Conclusion IVIM can be used as a new imaging method to evaluate and predict the efficacy of NAC for ESCC, among which the parameter D was the most valuable.

Objective To evaluate the value of 3T magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in the preoperative T staging of potentially resectable esophageal cancer(EC), compared with endoscopic ultrasonography (EUS). Methods Patients with resectable EC pathologically confirmed by biopsy from March 2015 to September 2016 were prospectively enrolled. All patients underwent MRI (including T2-TSE-BLADE,DWI and radial-VIBE)and EUS one week after the biopsy,and MRI were performed prior to EUS, both MRI and EUS were acquired within one week before surgery. Two readers with more than 5 years experiences in the MRI diagnosis evaluated the MR image quality using a 5-point score independently. T staging was assigned on MRI and EUS by the two MRI readers using double-blind method and one endoscopist in accordance with the 7th edition of AJCC TNM Classification for EC, and any disagreement between two MRI readers was resolved by consensus with discussion to the third senior MRI doctor. The inter-observer agreement between two MRI readers were calculated using Kappa test for image quality scores and T staging results. Considering postoperative pathological T staging results as the gold standard, the performances of MRI and EUS were evaluated based on the accuracy rate and analyzed by χ2 test. Results A total of 70 patients were enrolled in the study, the good image quality cases (≥ 3 scores) were 66 in reader 1 and 68 in reader 2. The inter-observer agreement of the image quality scores by two readers was excellent (Kappa=0.824, P<0.05). The pathological results revealed 16 cases of T1 stage, 18 cases of T2 stage, 30 cases of T3 stage, and 6 cases of T4a stage. The inter-observer agreement of the preoperative T staging of EC by two readers was excellent (Kappa=0.809, P<0.05). The accuracy rates of MRI and EUS for preoperative T staging of EC were 92.9% (65/70) and 67.1% (47/70), respectively, and the difference in accuracy rates of two techniques was statistically significant (χ2=14.5, P<0.05). Conclusions The accuracy rate of MRI for preoperative T staging of EC is significantly higher than that of EUS. MRI can be used as a noninvasive method for preoperative T staging of EC.

Objective To investigate the correlation between quantitative parameters of dynamic contrast?enhanced MRI (DCE?MRI) after neoadjuvant chemotherapy and pathological grades in esophageal squamous cell carcinoma. Methods Fifty?six patients with esophageal squamous cell carcinoma who were confirmed by esophagoscope and received neoadjuvant chemotherapy before operation between September 2015 and December 2017 in the Affiliated Cancer Hospital of Zhengzhou University were prospectively analyzed, and MRI examination was performed within one week before operation. All patients underwent routine chest MRI and DCE?MRI scanning, and quantitative parameters of DCE?MRI, including volume transfer constant (Ktrans),exchange rate constant (Kep) and extravascular extracellular volume fraction (Ve) were measured. Pathological grading was assessed as highly differentiated, moderately differentiated, poorly differentiated,and undifferentiated. Intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC) was calculated from the results of two radiologists. Kruskal?Wallis H test was used to compare the differences of quantitative parameters between different pathological grade groups of DCE?MRI,and Mann?Whitney U test was utilized to compare the intraclass differences among pathological grades. Spearman rank correlation analysis was performed for evaluating the correlation between DCE?MRI parameters and pathological grade of esophageal squamous cell carcinoma. The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves were used to evaluate the diagnosis accuracy of different DCE?MRI parameters in pathological grade of esophageal squamous cell carcinoma after neoadjuvant chemotherapy. Results The 56 patients were divided into four groups according to pathological findings: well differentiated group (n=8), moderately differentiated group (n=39), poorly differentiated group (n=9) and undifferentiated group (n=0). The differences of Ktransmean,Ktrans75%,Kepmax, Kepmean,Kep75% between different pathological grading groups were statistically significant (all P<0.05),and these parameters showed positive correlation significantly with pathological grading (r values were 0.778, 0.632, 0.594, 0.725, 0.489 respectively, all P<0.05). The ROC curve area of Ktransmean, Ktrans75% in the diagnosis of pathological grade for esophageal squamous cell carcinoma was 0.750,0.856,respectively. The diagnostic efficiency of Ktrans75% was the best with the diagnostic threshold of 0.693/min,sensitivity of 87.5%, specificity of 78.5%, respectively. Conclusion The quantitative parameters of DCE?MRI after neoadjuvant chemotherapy in esophageal squamous cell carcinoma have the potential value for predicting pathological grade.

Under the diagnosis-related groups(DRG) prospective payment system, innovative health technologies with high costs and risks may be limited to some extent. How to balance the increase of health care cost and the development of innovative health technology is a difficult problem to be solved in the current reform. By studying the relatively mature payment systems of innovative health technologies in the world, the authors found that countries generally adopted additional payment or compensation to encourage the development of new technologies. But at the same time, a relatively perfect health technology assessment and payment management mechanism had been established to ensure the standardized operation of payment plan. These international advanced experience and practice could provide references for China′s innovative health technology payment strategy under the DRG payment system. It is suggested to establish a scientific and reasonable assessment mechanism of innovative health technology, create a special access channel for innovative health technology with limited short-term evidence, and gradually form a long-term incentive mechanism of innovative health technology in DRG payment system.

Objective To investigate the clinical efficacy of low-frequency transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) on post-stroke upper limb spasticity and its mechanism. Methods From September, 2015 to December, 2017, 23 patients with post-stroke upper limb paralysis were randomly divided into control group (n=13) and experimental group (n=10). Both groups received routine rehabilitation, and the experimental group received 1 Hz rTMS at primary motor area (M1) for eight weeks. They were assessed with modified Ashworth Scale (MAS), modified Barthel Index (MBI) and Fugl-Meyer Assessment-Upper Extremities (FMA-UE) before and after treatment, while the activation under fMRI in the task state was observed and the laterality index (LI) was calculated. Results The scores of MAS, FMA-UE and MBI improved after treatment in both groups (Z>2.121, t=6.248, P<0.05), and improved more in the experimental group than in the control group (Z>2.084, t=-2.095, P<0.05). The ipsilateral M1, ipsilateral sensory motor cortex and bilateral supplementary motor area were activated more in the control group than in the experimental group during the movement of affected hand. LI in the M1 increased after treatment in both groups (Z>2.366, P<0.05), and was more in the experimental group than in the control group (Z=-2.430, P<0.05). There was a positive correlation between the change of LI in the M1 and the improvement of the MAS and FMA-UE (r>0.612, P<0.05). Conclusion Low-frequency rTMS may improve the motor function and spasticity of upper limb after stroke by promoting reorganization of the cortex and inducing normalization of cortical function.
