Objective To explore the hypothesis that postconditioning during percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty (PTCA) would improve cardiac function and reduce infarct size after prolonged reperfusion. Methods Forty-one patients undergoing primary PTCA with acute myocardial infarction were randomized into the control group (n=16) or the postconditioning (n=23) group within 90 minutes after admission. In the control group, no intervention was given at the onset of reperfusion, while in the postconditioning group, three cycles of repetitive angioplasty balloon inflation and deflation was performed within 1 minute after reperfusion. ST segment regression, TIMI flow and blush grade were analyzed for all patients after the procedure. Ejection fraction and infarct size assessed by nuclear imaging were quantified respectively at 7 days after restoration of reperfusion. Results ST segment resolution, TIMI flow and blush grade between the two groups were compatible. Area under the curve of serum CK release during the first 72 hours of reperfusion was significantly reduced in the postconditioning group than that in the control group (58?002 vs 79?787, P=0.04). There was a tendency towards amelioration in ejection fraction in the postconditioning compared with the control group (52.1%?12.9% vs 44.5%?16.7%, P=0.29). Conclusion Postconditioning during PTCA protects the heart against acute myocardial ischemic-reperfusion injury. More importantly, the study indicates that protection with postconditioning is still preserved after an extended reperfusion, suggesting a permanent protection.

Objective:To investigate the diagnosis and therapy approaches of carotid body tumor (CBT).Method:Retrospective study of diagnosis and treatment of 10 patients with CBT was conducted.Results:Five patients were examined by B ultrasonic technique and all were not diagnosed;eight were examined by color Doppler flow imaging, six of whom were diagnosed as with CBT;six were examined by CT, three of whom were diagnosed;three was examined by digital subtraction angiography(DSA) and all were diagnosed;two were examined by magnetic resonance imaging(MRI) and one was diagnosed.There was no patient died during operation.One patient died 4 days after operation because of anoxemia in brain. Pathological examination after operation confirmed the diagnosis.Conclusion:Synthetical examinations should be taken to confirm the diagnosis of CBT. Color Doppler flow imaging and DSA are significant. Selection of operation methods should be based on the practice.

Emphasis on theoretical study which combined closely with actual operation was also established. After the tralning, all students who received tralning can do coronary angiography and PCI for simple lesion in accordance with the requirements of the syllabus. All tralnees passed unified national exam organized by the Ministry of Health and got the qualification for interventional therapy.

Objective To investigate spiral CT,PET/CT and clinical manifestations in non-HIV infectious penicilliposis marneffei lung disease, to improve diagnostic level of this disease.Methods Imaging manifestations of 6 cases of non-HIV infectious penicilliposis marneffei confirmed by bronchofiberscope lung biopsy and/or pus culture were analyzed retrospectively All cases underwent chest CT,two had brain MRI,and two had PET/CT scan before treatment.Imaging appearances were observed and combined with clinical dates and literatures.Results Unilateral lung lesion was detected in 1 case,bilateral lungs lesions in 5 cases.Multiple patchy consolidation,stripe shadow in bilateral lungs or right lung were found in 3 cases, multiple nodes in 2 cases, mass with nodes in 1 case.Among 6 cases, 2 had septa interlobulare thickness,1 had tracheal fistula,2 had pericardium and pleura involvement,4 had bone destruction,1 had the brainand liver involvement.6 cases showed multiple lymphadenectasis,amalgamation and necrosis in bilateral hilar,mediastinaand the neck.2 had abdominal cavity and or retroperitoneal lymphadenectasis.On PET/CT,2 cases showed high uptake,and the range of SUV value were 1.4-13.9.Initial misdiagnosis by imaging was found in 5 cases.6 patients recovered after anti fungus treatment.Conclusion Imaging appearances of non-HIV infectious penicilliposis marneffei mainly reveals as multiple patchy consolidation,nodes and mass in bilateral lungs, all accompany with lymphadenectasis, many with bone destruction,lack of specificity, which needs lesion biopsy and pus culture to make confirmed diagnosis.

Objective To explore the characteristics of diffusion weighted imaging (DWI) of lumbar sacral nerve roots (LSNR)in normal and degenerative lumbosacral vertebrae. Methods The research recruited 20 normal volunteers and 31 patients with spinal stenosis on conventional MRI and DWI scans in lumbosacral spine. We measured the areas from lumbar 3 to sacral 1 at the intervertebral spaces and reconstructed the 3D maximum intensity projection (MIP) and counted the apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC)of LSNR and ganglions. Results In the control group, 196 (98%) LSNR ran symmetrically and lateroinferiorly and 200 ganglions were well defined on MIP of DWI. In the patients group, 74 LSNR showed changes of compression on both T1WI and T2WI, in which DWI appeared thin and distorted in 59 (80%). The ADC value of LSNR were(1.70 ± 0.40)× 10-3 mm2/s and(1.98 ± 0.57) × 10-3 mm2/s separately in normal volunteers and patients (P=0.000), while the ADC values of ganglions were(1.42 ± 0.21)× 10-3 mm2/s and (1.54 ± 0.53)× 10-3 mm2/s respectively in normal volunteers and patients (P=0.000). Conclusion DWI can display the pattern and course of LSNR and ganglions, which indicate that ADC values of compressed LSNR and ganglions are higher than normal ones.

Objective To investigate CT and MRI features of dermatofibrosarcoma protuberans (DFSP).Methods Totally 16 patients with DFSP confirmed by pathology were enrolled.Tumor morphology,CT and MRI imaging appearance (11 cases underwent plain and enhanced CT,5 cases underwent plain and enhanced MRI) were analyzed retrospectively.Results DFSP usually occurred in the skin of truck,head and neck,protruding from the skin surface in different extent.Some lesions even suspended out of the skin.The lesions were divided into nodular type (n=12) and diffuse type (n=4) according to their morphological appearance.The tumors usually demonstrated as iso-density or slightly low density solid mass compared to muscle on CT.On MRI,it usually demonstrated as low signal on T1WI and high signal on T2WI.Tumor blood supply was rich,and it usually showed progressively moderate to strong enhancement.The signs within DFSP include hanging sign (n=2),skin tail sign (n＝6),fascia tail sign (n=l),fat tail sign (n=4).Conclusion DFSP can be characterized by nodular or diffuse lesions,the manifestations of different form are slightly different,but still have a certain characteristic.
