Chinese Journal of Digestive Endoscopy 2011;28(7):372-374
Objective To explore the diagnostic values of bile cytology obtained in endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) and blood tumor markers for malignant bile duct obstruction.Methods From August 2005 to April 2009, bile cytology and blood tumor markers measurement were performed in 47 cases with bile duct obstruction, in which 39 cases were confirmed to be malignant and 8 were benign. Results Malignant cells were found in bile from 26 of 39 malignant obstruction (66. 7% ), and serum CA19-9 was positive in 28 (71.8%). No malignant cells were detected in bile cytology from 8 cases with benign obstruction (with a specificity of 100% ) and serum CA19-9 was negative in 7 (87.5%). In 26 patients with cholangiocarcinoma, serum CA19-9 was positive in 18 (69. 2% ). For bile cytology and blood tumor markers test, sensitivity of parallel combination was 89. 7%, and the specificity of serial combination was 100. 0%. Conclusion Bile cytology testing during ERCP can provide the pathological evidence for malignant bile duct obstruction. The sensitivity is improved by combination tests of bile cytology and blood tumor markers.

BACKGROUND:Currently, morphological observations of brain cavity after traumatic brain injury (TBI) via cadavers or animal specimen are difficult to obtain dynamic changes.
OBJECTIVE:To explore the application effect of MRI-based three-dimensional (3D) reconstruction for evaluating the prognosis of TBI.
METHODS:Five male Sprague-Dawley rats were enrol ed to establish TBI models by Electronic Cortical Contusion Injury (eCCI), and scanned by 3.0T MRI with Rat-coil to obtain the DICOM date of brain at 1 day, 1, 2 and 3 months after modeling. Brain cavities were 3-dimensional y reconstructed by Mimics16.0 software, and analyzed in the Meshmixer software.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1) The outline of reconstruction model image was clear, and could be observed and measured from different sides and perspectives. (2) The cavity volume and surface area at different time points after TBI showed significant differences between each other except that at 2 and 3 months (P<0.05). (3) The results of cavity change suggested that the cavity tended to be regular after 3 months of TBI. (4) In conclusion, 3D reconstruction software Mimics combining with model analysis software Meshmixer can conveniently and quickly obtain the cavity model, and provide an intuitive way for evaluating the dynamic variations of the brain cavity after TBI.
