Objective To investigate the MSCT(multi-slice computed tomography) manifestation of different kinds of malignant tumor in Renal Sinus.Methods MSCT data of 31 patients with diferent kinds of malignent tumor in Renal Sinus were analyzed retrospectively.Results In our series,15 cases were renal pelvic carcinoma,and central mass in renal sinus with light or middle ehancement were revealed in their MSCT investigation,as well as pelvic filling defect and hydronephrosis to some extent were found in secretory phase of enhanced MSCT.10 cases were renal cell carcinoma with renal sinus invasion,and their MSCT muti-planar reconstruction showed the mass mainly located in renal parenchymal,with dramatical and heterogenous CT enhancement mostly,besides local oppression & latral destruction of pelvic wall were caused by renal pelvic invasion.2 cases leiomyosaocoma in renal sinus were big and had a sharp edge,after adminisration they demonstrated dramatical and heterogenous CT enhancement.3 cases were lymphnode metastasis located in renal sinus or renal gate,appeared as nodular lesion with CT enhancement,and hydronephrosis could be exsisted if renal pelvic were obstructed.1 case were retroperitoneal lymphoma,MSCT muti-planar recon-struction revealed a large retroperitoneal mass derectly invaded into renal sinus,with light or middle homogenous ehancement.Conclusion MSCT has advantages of high speed scan,excellent discrimination,and aplenty post-process technique,and is of diagonotic value to malignant tumor in renal sinus.

The real-time monitoring of cerebral hemorrhage can reduce its disability and fatality rates greatly. On the basis of magnetic induction phase shift, we in this study used filter and amplifier hardware module, NI-PXI data-acquisition system and LabVIEW software to set up an experiment system. We used Band-pass sample method and correlation phase demodulation algorithm in the system. In order to test and evaluate the performance of the system, we carried out saline simulation experiments of brain hemorrhage. We also carried out rabbit cerebral hemorrhage experiments. The results of both saline simulation and animal experiments suggested that our monitoring system had a high phase detection precision, and it needed only about 0.030 4s to finish a single phase shift measurement, and the change of phase shift was directly proportional to the volume of saline or blood. The experimental results were consistent with theory. As a result, this system has the ability of real-time monitoring the progression of cerebral hemorrhage precisely, with many distinguished features, such as low cost, high phase detection precision, high sensitivity of response so that it has showed a good application prospect.

Objective To evaluate the imaging performance and characteristics of peripheral primitive neuroectodermal tumors (pPNET), in order to raise awareness of the disease and the diagnostic accuracy. Methods Thirteen patients with pPNET who confirmed by puncture or pathology were enrolled in this study. The CT and MRI features were retrospectively analyzed. Four patients received simple routine CT examination, and 9 patients had MRI examination based on X-ray, CT examination. Results The part of body involved was more widely.Two patients occurred in the sinuses, 1 patient in the chest wall, 1 patient in the lung, and 3 patients in the abdominal and pelvic(1 patient involved the pelvic floor through the pelvic wall lesions to basins), 1 patient in the spine, and 5 patients located in the extremities. The characteristics of pPNET by CT and MRI in soft tissue of 8 patients showed single large soft tissue mass, and the biggest was 11.2 cm × 10.6 cm. In bonds and joints of 5 patients, CT and MRI showed wide range of soft tissue mass, mixed internal signal/density with obviously uneven enhancement, significant bone destruction and dissolvable osseous changes, and no obvious tumor bone and calcification. Conclusions Each site has its relative imaging characteristics of pPNET. CT and MRI can show lesions involving the scope, internal structure, with or without adjacent tissue invasion and metastasis, and provide guidance for clinical treatment and selecting treatment regimen. But in the end, it depends on the diagnosis of pathological and immunohistochemical examination.

This study was aimed to improve the sensitivity of magnetic induction phase shift detection system for cerebral hemorrhage. In the study, a cerebral hemorrhage model with 13 rabbits was established by injection of autologous blood and the cerebral hemorrhage was detected by utilizing magnetic induction phase shift spectroscopy (MIPSS) detection method under the feature band. Sixty five groups of phase shift spectroscopy data were obtained. According to the characteristics of cerebral hemorrhage phase shift spectroscopy under the feature hand, an effective method, B-F distribution, to diagnose the severity of cerebral hemorrhage was designed. The results showed that using MIPSS detection method under feature band, the phase shift obviously growed with increase of injection volume of autologous blood, and the phase shift induced by a 3-mL injection reached -7.750 3 degrees ± 1.420 4 degrees. B-F distribution could effectively diagnose the severity of cerebral hemorrhage. It can be concluded that the sensitivity of the cerebral hemorrhage magnetic induction detection system is improved by one order of magnitude with the MIPSS detection method under the feature band.
