Objective To study the facial nerve canal (FNC) abnormalities of the congenital external auditory canal (EAC) atresia by MSCT curved planar reformation (CPR).Methods 15 cases(17 ears) of congenital EAC atresia were scanned by MSCT. Post-processing images were completed by Philips Mx8000 workstation.Results In 17 ears, there were 2 ears with stenosis of EAC, 2 ears with membranous atresia of EAC and 13 ears with bony atresia of EAC.There were 1 ear with congenital cholesteatoma, 3 ears with malformation of tympanum, 7 ears with malformation of the ossicular chain and 1ear with malformation of inner ear. In 17 ears with abnormalities of FNC, included 11 ears with the shortness of FNC general length, 5 ears with the anomalous course of FNC, 9 ears with the displacement of FNC, 1 ear with the narrowing of FNC and 1 ear with the branch of FNC.Conclusion MSCT CPR of FNC, combined with HRCT axial scan, can clearly show the FNC abnormalities of the congenital EAC atresia and provide valuable information for surgery.

Objective Using curved planar reformation(CPR)to delineate the ossicular chain(OC)in one image and evaluate its clinical application. Methods HRCT of temporal bone was performed in 122 cases(165 ears).The CPR of OC was then performed.The main parameters were as follow:collimation 0.5mm,pitch 0.875,reformation interval 0.2~0.3mm,reformation matrix 1024?1024.Results (1)CPR of normal OC were performed on 80 ears,the three ossicles and its joints could be showed on one image clearly.(2)Clincal application(72cases):in 39 cases of temporal bone trauma,OCs were normal in 21 cases and abnormal in 18 cases.Subluxation or dislocation of malleoincudal joint(MIJ)(5,5) and incudostapedial joint(ISJ)(5,6),dislocation of MIJ and ISJ with rotation of incus(1 case),fracture of manubrium of malleus(1 case) were found respectively.In 16 cases of external auditory canal dysplasia(EACD),the most commonly associated type of OC deformity was absence of manubrium of malleus(10 cases)。Absence of OC associated with coarctation of middle ear cavity(3 cases) and fusion of the malleus and incus associated with absence of long process of incus represented in 1 case.Congenital ossicular anomalies without associated EACD were found in 2 cases.The long processes of the incus of both side were absent in 1 case.Incudostapedial disconnection was demonstrated in 1 case due to improper development of the long process of the incus.In 15 cases of chronic otitis media(COM),6 cases were complicated cholesteatoma.Destruction of OC was demonstrated in 6 cases.Conclusion CPR of OC with multislice spiral CT is an effective method in the diagnosis of conductive hearing loss.

Objective To measure the dimention and area of the cerebellar vermis and determine the effects of age and sex on the size of the cerebellar vermis in healthy adults.Methods We estimated the dimention and area of the cerebellar vermis in 360 healthy volunteers,20~87 years old.Results We found a significant reduction in the anterior-posterior dimention and the superior-inferior dimention after 60 years old.The anterior lobule area and the total area of the cerebellar vermis were larger in male than that in female.However,the analysis of age trends in the verian lobules revealed differential age related declines.Conclusion The dimention and area of cerebellar vermis reduced with aging after 60 years old.The area of the anterior vermis is larger in men than that in women.

Objective To study the relationship of X-ray and MRI features of breast benign lesions with histopathology.Methods The X-ray and MRI features of breast benign lesions in 48 cases were analyzed retrospectively and compared to the histopathogic results.Results There were 18 cases with fibroadenoma and 12 cases with mammoplasia,8 cases with breast galactocele,8 cases with adenosis of breast accompanied by chronic inflammation and 2 cases with lipoma.The structure and vessels of breast were normal mostly in breast benign lesions.The margins of the lesions were clear and the density of lesions was uniformity.The calcifications inside the lesions appeared as granular with definite and smooth margins,less in amounts,growth as plexus-like or diffusive.The lesions were circular,oval or patchy shadows and homogeneous iso-or hypo-intensity on T1WI,iso-or slight hyperintensity on T2WI,and obviously homogeneous enhanced in 4 cases after administration of contrast medium.Conclusion Mammography is the first choice for the breast benign lesions,while MRI can improve the diagnostic accurate rate.

Objective To study the methods of delineating the whole length of bilateral facial nerve canals in one image. Methods High resolution computed tomography of the temporal bone was performed in 60 cases (120 ears) by Philips Mx8000 multislice spiral CT. Parameters: 120 kV, 200~250 mAs, Collimation: 0.5 mm, Pitch: 0.875, Scan time: 0.75 s/ring, Matrix: 512?512, Reformation interval: 0 1~0.2 mm, Reformation matrix: 1 024?1 024. Curved planar reformation(CPR)images were prepared along the facial nerve canal in the axial plane, and in the coronal and sagittal plane of multiplanar reconstruction(MPR). In the axial plane, a reference line was traced following the facial nerve canal from the internal auditory meatus, through the labyrinthine segment, the tympanic segment up to the second genu and mastoid segment. Another two protocols of curved reformatting were adopted: (a) a curved line was delineated along the facial nerve canal on the coronal reformatted image; (b) a curved line was drawn along the facial nerve canal on the sagittal reformatted image. The reference lines were carefully revised and moved exactly to the center of each segment of the facial nerve canal. For displaying bilateral facial nerve canals in one image, one reference line should be drawn along bilateral facial nerve canals. Results In 56 cases of 60 CPR, images in the axial plane, and coronal plane of MPR could show the unilateral or bilateral facial nerve canals clearly. The result of CPR of bilateral facial nerve canals in sagittal plane of MPR was unsatisfactory. The image on one side was often clear, but just part of it could be showed on the other. So the left and right facial nerve canals should be reformed separately. In 4 cases, CPR was unsatisfactory. In 1 of them the labyrinthine and tympanic segment had breaks because the patient′s head shook during the scanning. In 3 of them the facial nerve canals were showed unsatisfactorily because of the inexact position of head during the scanning. Conclusion The unilateral or bilateral facial nerve canals could be showed in one image by CPR. Combining the images of the high resolution CT in axial scan and MPR of the temporal bone, it would be helpful in the diagnosis of the lesions of facial nerve canal.
