Objective To study the characteristic findings of brain echinococcosis on MRI. Methods The MRI findings of 18 patients with pathologically confirmed brain echinococcosis were retrospectively reviewed.Results Among the patients.there were 9 cases of cystic echinococcosis and 9 cases of alveolar echinococcosis.In cystic echinococeosis,MRI revealed homogeneously hypointensity on T1WI and hyperintensity on T2WI,while it showed low signal intensity inside the cysts on FLAJR and DWI. In 6 cases of cystic echinococcosis, no edema was detected surrounding the lesions,while edema resulting from cyst rupture was found in 3 cases.The cystic walls were visible in 6 csses, obscure in 3 cases.The ruptured hydatid cysts in 3 cases showed slight ring enhancement.Alveolar echinococcosis appeared as multiple lesions with isointensity on T1WI and hypointensity on T2WI,surrounded by vasogenic edema.The "charcoal-like"hypointensity and innumerous hyperintense bubbles of 1-10 mm in diameter inside the lesions on T2-weighted MR images were characteristic for lesions of alveolar echinococcosis.The lesions revealed hypointensity on DWI and showed irregular ring enhancement after injection of Gd-DTPA. Perfusion-weighted MR imaging revealed low relative cerebral blood volume.Conclusion MRI can demonstrate lesions of brain echinococcosis accurately due to its advantages of multiorientation and multiparameter.It is clinically valuable.

Objective To evaluate the application of diffusion-weighted MR imaging in hepatic echinococcosis.Methods Diffusion-weighted MR imaging and measurement of apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC)were performed in 23 patients with 30 hepatic echinococcosis(cystic echinococcosis 24, alveolaris echinococcosis 6).Results The mean ADC values of cystic echinococcosis, alveolaris echinococcosis and normal liver were (3.50?0.35)?10 -3 mm2/s,(2.22?0.22)?10 -3 mm2/s and (1.41?0.09)?10 -3 mm2/s respectively.The difference between the mean ADC values was significant(?

Objective To analyze the MRI features of fibrocystic breast disease (FBD). Methods 39 patients with pathologically proven FBD were retrospectively reviewed. The imaging protocol consisted of pro-contrast imagings and bilateral breast volume im-aging for breast assessme NT(VIBRANT). MRI features were interpreted based on the morphologic and enhancement kinetic de-scriptors defined on ACR DIRADS-MRI lexicon. Results There were 3 types on ACR BI-RADS-MRI lexicon in FBD,including 13 focal mass-type showing malignant enhancement kinetic pattern mostly;15 cyst-type with non-enhancement or mild enhance-ment,of them,1 case with periductal mastiffs showing strong enhancement and rapid up-slope and wash-out mimicking a breast cancer. 6 non-mass type usually showing benign enhancement kinetic pattern. In 5 patients,MRI did not show definite abnormal evi-dence. Conclusion MRI is of significant value in diagnosing FBD.

Objective To evaluate whether the functional MRI could be used to reflect the change of angiogenesis after drug treat-ment,and obtain the related semi quantitative and quantitative parameters by dynamic contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (DCE-MRI).Methods The subcutaneous transplantation colorectal cancer were constructed in 20 nude mice,which were treated with Xiaoaifeimi.The transplanted tumor microvascular density,VEGF and PCNA were monitored.The therapeutic effect and MRI monitoring results were evaluated by combining DCE-MRI with the pharmacokinetic model.The semi quantitative and quantitative parameters were obtained for evaluating the effection of medicine.Half of nude mice were sacrificed to obtain the immunohistochem-ical staining.Correlation between pathological findings and parameters were analyzed.Results Compared to the control group,hu-man colon HT-29 cell proliferation rate was significantly decreased (44.87%)(P <0.05),and the apoptosis rate of HT-29 cells was increased 2.45 times (P <0.05)after Uyghur medicine treatment.The correlation between pathological examination and DCE-MRI parameters showed that Ktrans value and Kep were positively correlated with VEGF,MVD and PCNA (P <0.05).Conclusion A good relationship is showed between immunohistochemistry and DCE-MRI quantitative parameters in Uygur drug treating human colon cancer mice.

Objective To discuss the safety and advantages of prone-straddle position applied in transvaginal hysteromyomectomy of the posterior wall of the uterus. Methods The clinical data of patients who were admitted into our hospital from March 2013 to Janaury 2015 and received transvaginal hysteromyomectomy were retrospectively analyzed. They were divided into group A ( prone-straddle position, 30 cases) and group B (traditional lithotomy position,24 cases). The exposure of operative field, convenience of operation, time of the placement, time of operation, patient satisfaction, as well as patients’ heart rate, blood pressure, and oxyhemoglobin saturation were observed and ana-lyzed. Results Compared with the lithotomy position, there were significant differences in the time of the placement and the time of opera-tion in the patients treated by prone-straddle position. The patients with prone-straddle position cooperated well, and there was no obvious discomfort. Their vital signs were stable during the operation. The operative field during prone-straddle position exposed better and it was more convenient which make the operation became easier for both the operators and nurses. Conclusion Prone-straddle position applied in transvaginal hysteromyomectomy of the posterior wall of the uterus is safe and practicable, and it is valuable for clinical application.
