Chinese Journal of Radiology 2015;(9):661-664
Objective To investigate the dynamic changes in each radical line of pelvic floor levator hiatus in female with stress urinary incontinence(SUI). Methods A retrospective analysis of MR images was performed in 30 female patients with clinically diagnosed SUI and 30 asymptomatic female volunteers recruited as reference group. All of the subjects underwent pelvic MRI scanning both in static statusand Valsalva maneuver, respectively, Valsalva was performed by attempt to forcibly urinate while holding her breath, respectively. Area of pelvic diaphragm hiatus (LHA), ntero-posterior length (LHL) and tmixmum width (LHW) were measured in horizontal axis plane of the obtained images.H line distance was measured in the midsagittal plane. Independent sample t test was performed to compare the difference in LHA, LHL and LHW between two groups. Paired t test was used to compare difference in LHA, LHL and LHW between two groups in static status and Valsalva maneuver, respectively. Results In static status, the values in LHA, LHL, LHW and H line distance for SUI groups were(28.7±19.3) cm2, (7.1±2.2) cm, (4.7± 1.6 ) cm and (5.7±1.1) cm, respectively. The parameters for the reference group were(13.1±3.7)cm2, (5.3± 0.8) cm, (3.4 ± 0.5) cm and (5.7 ± 0.9) cm, respectively. The difference in LHA, LHL, LHW between two groups was statistically significant (t=4.33, 4.36, 4.23, and P<0.01 for all indexes), whereas the difference in H line distance between two groups was no statistically significanct because of P> 0.05. In Valsalva
maneuver, LHA, LHL, LHW and H line distance were (40.0±26.0) cm2, (8.0±2.3) cm, (6.0±2.5) cm and (6.1± 1.5)cm for SUI group, and were (16.2±6.2) cm2,(5.5±1.0) cm, (3.6±0.8) cm and (6.0±1.0) cm for the reference group, respectively. The difference in LHA, LHL and LHW between two groups was statistically significant, (t=4.88, 5.36, 4.91 respectively, and P<0.01), whereas the differencein H value between two groups was no statistically significant (P< 0.05). For SUI group , the difference of LHA, LHL and LHW between static status and Valsalva maneuver had statistically significant with P<0.01. For reference group, the difference of LHA and LHL between static status and Valsalva maneuver had statistically significant(P<0.05). Conclusion Dynamic and static pelvic MRI can evaluate the morphology and variation of pelvic floor levator hiatus much intuitively and accurately. pelvic floor levator hiatus becomes enlarged in female with SUI.

Chinese Journal of Radiology 2016;50(4):265-268
Objective To investigate the MRI features of urethral sphincter in female with stress urinary incontinence(SUI) by the study of the indexes of the thickness of middle urethral sphincter, the function urethral length and bladder neck funnel . Methods Forty patients of female patients diagnosed as SUI by clinical were retrospectively as SUI group, and 40 asymptomatic female volunteers were recruited as reference group. All of the subjects were tested by pelvic MRI scanning both in static status and in the condition of Valsalva. The thickness of middle urinary sphincter was measured in the horizontal axis plane. In the midsagittal plane, the function urethral length was measured from the internal orifice to perineal fascia. The bladder neck funnel whether exist was observed from the midsagittal plane. For the comparison of the urinary sphincter thickness and urethral length of the two groups, independent sample t test was adopted. For urethral length in static status and under the condition of Valsalva, paired t test was done. For comparison of positive rate of the bladder neck funnel, Chi?squared test has been done. Results The value of the middle urinary sphincter thickness in the groups of SUI and reference were (2.23±0.68) mm and (2.69± 0.75) mm, respectively. Thus the differences of the two groups had statistical significance (t=-2.839, P<0.01 ). In the static status, the urethral length in SUI and reference group were (2.72±0.51) cm and (2.94± 0.34) cm respectively, wheras in Valsalva condition, the value were (2.33 ± 0.49) cm and (2.43 ± 0.43) cm respectively. The differences of the two groups had statistical significance in static status (t=-2.322, P=0.023), wheras there had no statistical significance in the two groups in Valsalva condition (t=-1.049,P=0.297). For SUI and reference group, both in static status and Valsalva condition, the difference of function urethral length had statistical significance (P< 0.01). The positive rate of bladder neck funnel for SUI was 72.5% (29/40), and for reference was 22.5% (9/40), the difference of the two groups had statistical significance(χ2=20.050, P<0.01). Conclusion For female SUI patients, urinary sphincter muscle is much thinner, function urethral length is much shorter and has higher positive rate of bladder neck funnel.

Objective To evaluate and monitor the efifcacy of GnRH analogs (GnRHa) therapy. Methods Thirty girls with central precocious puberty diagnosied by LHRH stimulation test were treated with GnRHa for 6-24 months. The LHRH stimula-tion test were performed again at 3 months after initiation of therapy and then every 6 months during treatment. The relationship of peark LH and clinical suppressing pubertal (including Turner stage, bone age, grwoth speed) were compared. The monitor effect of peak LH to efifcacy of GnRHa were eveluated. Results Ninety LHRH stimulation tests were performed, only 7 cases were found to have clinical pubertal development. After 6 months treatment, the base LH level of thirty girls (0.48±0.20) IU/L was signiifcantly lower than that before the treatment (0.75±0.35 IU/L) (P=0.000). The correlation coefifcient between base LH and peak LH was 0.62. The best correlation between clinical suppressing pubertal and LHRH stimulation test was achieved when peak LH was less than 2 IU/L (85.7%sensitivity, 100%speciifcity). Conclusions Base LH value can be used in preliminary as-sessment of the efifcacy of GnRHa therapy for girls with central precocious puberty. The peak LH less than 2 IU/L can be as the indicator of treatment efifcacy.
