Objective To evaluate the value of MSCT perfusion imaging in assessment of single renal function of hydronephrotic kidney.Methods 64-slice spiral CT perfusion was performed in 36 obstructive nephrohydrosis patients whose split renal glomerular filtration rate(GFR) was measured by SPECT renal dynamic imaging. ①The perfusion parameters of the renal cortex and renal medulla of the hydronephrotic kidney were compared with the normal kidney studied by contrast group. ②The 72 kidneys were divided into normal renal function, mild and severe renal impairment groups according to renal function. Differences between the groups respect to all the mean perfusion parameters of the renal cortex and renal medulla were assesses by ANOVA. ③Using Pearsons correlation test, the correlations between all the mean perfusion parameters of the renal cortex and renal medulla and renal GFR were examined.Results ① The time-density curves of bilateral normal renal cortex and medulla were not symmetric. The mean BF, BV, PS, PBV of renal cortex were (203. 2±44.9)ml·100 ml~(-1)·min~(-1), (27.6±3.9)ml/100 ml, (30.7±6.5)ml·100 ml~(-1)· min~(-1), (46.5±10. 9)ml/100 ml; and the mean BF, BV, PS, PBV of renal medulla were (99.9±24.1)ml·100 ml~(-1)·min~(-1) ,(18. 3±4.3)ml/100 ml, (51.8±12.1)ml · 100 ml~(-1)· min~(-1) , (21.3±3.0)ml/100 ml. The mean perfusion parameters of the cortex and medulla of obstructed kidney were lower compared to that of normal kidney. ②There were significant differences of all the perfusion parameters of the renal cortex and me-dulla between 3 groups (P<0. 05). ③The perfusion parameters of the renal cortex and medulla had positive linear correlation with GFR. The best correlation was the blood flow of the cortex of kidney. The correlation coefficient r=0.852.Conclusions64-slice spiral CT perfusion imaging can quantita-tively evaluate the haemodynamic condition and functional lesion of the kidney, classify the impaired kidney function. The perfusion parameters of the renal cortex and medulla had positive linear correlation with GFR.

Objective To study one simple, safe and effective method of periorbital rhytidectomy. Methods With turgescent anesthesia, 1 cm -extent was dissected laterally deep under musculus orbicularis oculi at the approach of eyebrow area. The musculus orbicularis oculi was fixed to the deep temporal fascia and frontal periosteum. The superciliary corrugator muscle and depressor muscle were exposured and cut. Then the eyelid blepharoalasty was performed through the skin incision, meanwhile the lateral pars orbitalis muscle was liberated to form an orbitalis muscle flap under the orbitalis muscle and the fat pad, which was fixed to the os orbitale periost by lifting tight to lateral and upper side. For patients with generous pars buccalis and obvious nose lip ditch, the cheekbone fat cushion was also hanged and fixed. Results 65 middle age female patients were followed up for 3~16 months. The scar was no obvious, glabellar wrinkle and canthal wrinkle disappeared at static state, relaxed upper eyelid and eyebrow prolapse reached to complete correct, nasolabial groove wrinkle obvious lessened. 95 % patients were satisfacted with the appearance. Conjunctival edema was found in 4 cases, and disappeared within 1 months. There were no facial nerve injury and other complications. Conclusions It is a new incisional approach that avoids the facial nerves and lessens fossa orbitalis retrogradation. The operative procedure is simple and safe, and its incision is occult. The wound is small and restores rapidly, but the effect is reliable and lasting. It proves to be an ideal approach for face rejuvenation.

PurposeThe monitor of organ microcirculation is significant in the diagnosis and treatment of hemorrhagic shock (HS). We established an HS experimental model and evaluated it by contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS), which aimed to evaluate the value of CEUS and time-intensity curve (TIC) in quantitative analysis of renal cortical microcirculation.Materials and Methods The experimental models of HS were established in 30 healthy New Zealand white rabbits by controlled exsanguinations and were divided into four groups according to the shock grade: normal (100% MAP), mild (70% MAP), moderate (50% MAP) and severe (40% MAP). The right kidneys of the experimental model were examined by CEUS. The corresponding parameters of the TIC such as arrival time (AT), time to peak (TTP), peak intensity (PI) and area under the curve (AUC) were measured with the TIC analysis software package when the region of interest was set in superficial of renal cortex.Results The model of HS were successfully established with 30 healthy New Zealand rabbits. Twenty-seven healthy New Zealand rabbits were alive at the end of the experiment, and three died of severe shock. The TIC rose steeply and reached the peak quickly, and then declined slowly to the baseline, which reflected the transition of microbubble in the region of interest. As the hemorrhagic shock model progressed from normal to mild, PI and AUC gradually decreased and the differences were significant (P<0.05); no significant changes were found in AT and TTP (P>0.05). AT and TTP gradually prolonged compared with normal and mild shock groups, and the differences were significant (P<0.05).Conclusion CEUS and TIC can quickly and accurately assess the renal perfusion changes of acute hemorrhagic shock model of animals in a quantitative way. It can be used as a new noninvasive monitoring tool in quantitative analysis of renal cortical microcirculation.

Purpose To study the effects of different doses of ultrasound contrast agent SonoVue upon contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) in the kidney of healthy rabbits, and to seek the optimal dose of SonoVue. Materials and Methods CEUS was performed in 10 healthy rabbits with GE LOGIQ-E9 by using 8 different doses of SonoVue (ranging from 0.02 ml/kg to 0.16 ml/kg). The quantitative parameters of the time-intensity curve (TIC) were measured and statistically compared. Results The TICs showed that the peak intensity (PI) and the area under curve (AUC) increased with dose when the doses ranged from 0.02 ml/kg to 0.10 ml/kg (r=0.962 and 0.965, P<0.05); when the dose further increased, AUC had little change but PI decreased reversely. The arrival time (AT) shortened along with the increase of the SonoVue dose (r= - 0.917, P<0.05). The dose had a positive correlation with time to peak (r=0.49, P<0.05). Conclusion The parameters of TIC are influenced intensely by different doses of SonoVue. It is important to realize the relationship between SonoVue doses and its effects upon contrast-enhancement ultrasound in microcirculatory quantification. The dose of 0.10 ml/kg appears to be the optimal dose for CEUS in examining kidney of healthy rabbit.
