Objective To explore the value of magnetic resonance perfusion imaging of 3D arterial spin labeling(3D-ASL)in the diagnosis of transient ischemic attack(TIA).Methods 78 of patients were diagnosed TIA on MR routine scan [T1 WI,T2 WI,T2-FLAIR,diffusion weighted imaging(DWI)],magnetic resonance angiography(MRA)and 3D arterial spin labeling(3D-ASL).The re-sult were analyzed by Chi-square test.Results In 78 patients,the abnormal routine scan was 0 case(0%);abnormal MRA 41 cases (52.6%);abnormal 3D-ASL 47 cases(60.2%);combination with each other were 60 cases(76.9%).29 cases with artery stenosis and abnormal ASL,12 case with artery stenosis and normal ASL,19 cases with normal vascular and abnormal ASL,18 cases with normal vascular and normal ASL.Conclusion 3D-ASL is better than routine magnetic resonance sequences in the diagnosis of TIA,which is convenient and should be a routine scanning sequence of TIA.3D-ASL,MRA and DWI have their own advantages and disadvantages, combination use can improve the diagnosis accuracy of TIA.

Objective To investigate the clinical features, diagnosis and management of pancreatic lesions in patients with von Hippel-Lindau (VHL) disease, and improve the current understanding on pancreatic lesions in VHL disease.Methods The clinical data of three VHL disease patients with pancreatic lesions were analyzed retrospectively, including clinical features, laboratory findings, imaging, pathological features, operation method and follow-up.Results Two patients had a family history of hemangioblastoma in central neural system, and 1 patient had retinal multiple angioma and angioma in central neural system, who were diagnosed as VHL.One patient with pancreatic portal hypertension had splenectomy and biopsy of left renal tumor.During the surgery, pancreatic cystic lesions were observed and the transparent cysts were diffusively distributed on the surface.The other 2 patients were diagnosed as pancreatic multiple cysts and non functional pNETs, and pancreatic multiple cysts, respectively, based on the imaging.All the three patients had stable disease status, and followed up by outpatient visits.Conclusions VHL disease can manifest as simple pancreatic cyst, pancreatic serous cystadenoma and pNETs.The optimal individualized treatment should be determined by Multidisciplinary team (MDT) according to the general condition of patient.

Objective To develop a rapid and reliable method for determination of 210Po using large-area grid ionization chamber α spectrometry.Methods Samples were digested using a microwave digestion system.After preparation of sample source,the concentration of 210Po in clam was detected by large-area grid ionization chamber (φ 25 cm).209Po tracer was used to obtain the recovery.Results Large-area grid ionization chamber could achieve better counting and α spectrum resolution when the optimized thickness was 250 μg/cm2.By spiking 209Po tracer in clam,the minimum detectable activity was 9.870 × 10 4 Bq and the recovery of 210Po was 98％.Conclusions Compared with the traditional method,the developed method can avoid separation process,using less quantity of sample (0.2-0.5 g dry) and simplify the measurement process.This method may be has broad application prospects.

Objective To investigate the activity concentration of 90St in tea produced in Chinese typical regions,enrich the baseline data for 90Sr level in Chinese tea,and evaluate possible exposure doses to people.Methods Samples were carbonized,ashed,digested and leached,and then extraction chromatography method was used to separate 90Sr and 90y.After preparation of sample source,radioactivity of 90Y was measured using low-level α/β counter.Results Twenty six kinds of tea produced in 16 typical regions from 26 cities of 16 provinces were collected in 2016,and their 90Sr activity concentrations were analyzed using the separation method of di (2-ethylhexyl) phosphate (HDEHP) extraction chromatography.The results revealed that the activity concentrations in 26 kinds of tea samples ranged from 0.28 to 3.78 Bq/kg,and contributed possible exposure doses of 0.44 × 10-2-6.00 × 10-2 μSv to each people.Conclusions These doses were far less than the ICRP annual dose limit of 1 mSv for the public,suggesting less impact on people's health.

Objective To establish an effective and reliable method for analysis of uhratrace uranium in multi-stage atmospheric particles providing the monitoring and evaluation of the content of radioactive uranium in the atmosphere.Methods A large volume six-stage-impactor sampler of atmosphere particles was used to collect aerosol samples,and uhratrace uranium in particles was digested using microwave and measured by inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry.The filter material,digestion conditions and microwave digestion system had been optimized.Results The background of uranium level on the cellulose filter was the lowest,and the samples were digested by using HNO3-HCI (aqua regia)-H2O2 solution.Reference material SRM2783 was used to validate the accuracy of the method,and the relative error of the 238U was 7％,The detection limit of the method was 2 × 10-4ng/m3.The aerosol actual samples were analyzed using the established method.The mass concentrations of uranium in PM2.5 was in the range of 0.023-0.065 ng/m3.Conclusions The established method was effective and reliable to monitor the concentration level of ultratrace uranium in multi-stage atmospheric particles.

Objective To assess the therapeutic effectiveness of monotherapy of adefovir dipivoxil (ADV) and lamivudine (LAM),or ADV administered in combination with LAM,in order to find the effective and secure therapy for decompensated cirrhosis patients following chronic hepatitis B. Methods Totally 64 decompensated cirrhosis patients following chronic hepatitis B were divided into 2 groups by using a prospective randomized grouping method. In group A,patients received the therapy of adefovir dipivoxil (10mg/d) combined with lamivudine (100mg/d); and in group B,a monotherapy of adefovir dipivoxil (10mg/d) was used. The period of treatment was 48 weeks. Levels of serum ALT,HBeAg and HBV-DNA were detected in week 12,24,36 and 48 respectively. The liver function was evaluated with Child scores on these time points. Data were analyzed by a blinded independent investigator. Results After 48 weeks treatment,HBV DNA negative conversion rate of the two groups were 87.1%and 78.8%.The virtual rate were 96.8% and 87.9%;HBeAg negative conversion rate were 83.9%,and 57.6%. HBeAg/anti-HBe seroconversion rates of the two groups were 41.9%and 24.2%. Normalization of serum ALT levels were observed in 96.8% patients of group A and 97.0% of group B. Conclusion The combination therapy of adefovir dipivoxil (ADV) and lamivudine (LAM) could reduce the occurrence of drug resistance,and increase the anti-viral effect. It is a secure management for chronic hepatitis B virus infection.
