Objective To compare the usefulness of contrast-enhanced T1 high resolution isotropic volume excitation (THRIVE) sequence and fat-saturated TSE sequence in detection of spinal metastases.Methods Thirty-one consecutive patients with spinal metastases were recruited.All patients received post-contrast TSE T1WI followed by a fat-suppressed THRIVE sequence.The number of lesions,SNR and CNR for both sequences,and the scoring of image quality concerning motion-artifact and tumor conspicuity were compared.Results Acquisition time of the post-contrast TSE T1W sequence and the THRIVE sequence was 2 min 55 s and 33 s,respectively.No significant difference was found in the number of lesions detected between the two sequences (Z=-0.816,P=0.414).The SNR (432.54±271.60) and CNR (233.27± 197.65) of the THRIVE sequence were significantly lower than the SNR (674.32±375.79) and CNR (312.38±207.49) of the TSE T1W sequence respectively (t=-4.366,-2.660,P＜0.001,0.012).Tumor conspicuity of the post-contrast TSE sequence was better than that of THRIVE sequence (Z=-4.082,P＜0.001),while the motion-artifact in TSE sequence was more severe (Z=2.291,P=0.022).Conclusion The post-contrast THRIVE sequence is capable of decreasing acquisition time and motion-artifact.Besides,its detected efficacy is equal to that of TSE sequence.There is practical possibility to replace the conventional post-contrast TSE T1WI sequence with the THRIVE sequence in the imaging of spinal metastases.

Objective To discuss the efficacy and cosmetic effect of laparoscopic thyroidectomy for patients with thyroid diseases. Methods The clinical data of 160 patients who underwent laparoscopic thyroidectomy through the anterior chest approach were analyzed. The operation was performed under a pressure of 8 mm Hg within the surgical space at the neck. After the thyroid was separated completely, the lesions were resected using an ultrasound knife. Results Laparoscopic thyroidectomy was completed in 157 of the patients including 6 cases of papillary adenocarcinoma. The other 3 patients were converted to open surgery because of hyperthyroidisms complicated with intraoperative hemorrhage (1) or thyroid carcinoma complicated with lymph node metastasis (2). No severe complications involving the trachea and parathyroid occurred in this series. One patient with thyroid carcinoma developed transient hoarseness after the operation; one patient with nodular goiter had postoperative subcutaneous hemorrhage and hydrops; both of them were cured spontaneously. Postoperative hospital stay ranged from 3 to 5 days (mean, 4 days). The patients were followed up for 3 to 24 months with a mean of 6.8 months, during which none of them had recurrence. All the patients were satisfied with cosmetic outcomes of the surgery. Conclusion Laparoscopic thyroidectomy via the anterior chest approach is safe and feasible for patients with thyroid diseases with good cosmetic results.
