Objective To evaluate the ability of diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) and the apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) value in diagnosis of pancreatic cancer at 3.0T MR. Methods The diffusion-weigted sequences with b=800 s/mm~2 were performed in 30 patients of pancreatic cancer confirmed pathology, and in 30 control subjects with normal pancreas as well. ADC value of the cancer, pericancerous tissue and normal pancreas were recorded and statistically analyzed with ANOVA and ROC analysis. Results The mean ADC value of cancer, pericancerous tissue and normal pancreas was(1.494±0.273)×10~(-3) mm~2/s, (1.631±0.281)×10~(-3) mm~2/s and (1.778±0.237)×10~(-3) mm~2/s, respectively. ADC value of pancreatic cancer was significant different from that of the normal pancreas, while there was no significant difference between pancreatic cancer and pericancerous tissue. The one-side upper limit of 95% confidence interval of mean ADCs (1.622×10~(-3)mm~2/s)was adopted as the point to diagnosis of pancreatitis. The area under ROC curve was Az=0.800. Conclusion ADC values are helpful to differential diagnosis of pancreatic cancer and normal pancreas. DWI may be do some contribution to the diagnosis of pancreatic cancer.

Objective To quantify the perfusion parameters of normal pancreas and pancreatic carcinoma with three-dimension (3D) fast spoiled gradient echo dynamic contrast enhanced (DCE) MRI on 3.0T MR system, and to assess the value of 3D DCE-MRI in the diagnosis of pancreatic carcinoma. Methods Thirty-four patients with pathology verified pancreatic carcinoma and 31 control subjects with normal pancreas (without pancreatic diseases) underwent DCE-MRI with 3D LAVA sequence of ten phases. The data were processed on ADW 4.2 workstation. The perfusion parameters of the head, body and tail of normal pancreas, together with lesion and non-lesion area of pancreatic carcinoma were measured and statistically analyzed, including signal enhancement ratio at 30 s after injection (SER_(30)), signal enhancement ratio at 90 s after injection(SER_(90)), positive enhancement integral (PEI), time to peak (TTP) and maximum slope of increase (MSI). Results There was no significant perfusion difference among head, body or tail of normal pancreas (P>0.05). The difference of SER_(30), PEI, TTP and MSI between lesion and non-lesion region of carcinous pancreas was significant (P<0.05). The TTP between normal pancreas and the non-lesion region of carcinous pancreas was significantly different (P<0.05). Conclusion Normal pancreas has no regional perfusion difference. The data from DCE-MRI provide reliable information for the diagnosis of pancreatic cancer, and for the assessment of the invasion of pancreatic carcinoma. The difference in TTP between the normal pancreas and non-lesion region of carcinous pancreas suggest the existing of potential lesions.

BACKGROUND:Tissue-engineered bone can be obtained by the combination of chondrocytes and polyglycolic acid scaffold. OBJECTIVE:To investigate the effect of alogeneic chondrocytes/polyglycolic acid scaffold compound in the repair of thyroid cartilage defects in rabbits. METHODS: Twenty New Zealand adult rabbits were randomly divided into experimental group with implantation of alogeneic chondrocytes/polyglycolic acid scaffold compound and control group with implantation of polyglycolic acid scaffold. Gross and histological observations were done at 4 and 8 weeks after implantation. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: (1) Gross observation results: 4 weeks after surgery, cartilage defects in the experimental group were repaired certainly, and no necrosis appeared in the repair area; in the control group, the defects were filed with muscle and connective tissues. At 8 weeks after implantation, cartilage defects in the experimental group were further repaired, with unclear repair boundaries, and in the control group, cartilage defects were no repaired and showed a notable boundary with the surrounding normal cartilage tissues. (2) Immunohistochemical staining results: the expression of type II colagen in the experimental group was higher than that in the control group (P < 0.05) at 4 and 8 weeks after implantation. These findings indicate that the alogeneic chondrocytes/polyglycolic acid scaffold compound can promote the repair of thyroid cartilage defects in rabbits.

Objective To carry out innovative practice as well as questionnaire survey and conduct promotion analysis of clinical molecular biology testing based on problem-based learning (PBL). Methods 137 Students of medical laboratory technology discipline were chosen as subjects to conduct the innovative practice of PBL method. The teaching results were shared and promoted by video online through WeChat. Micro-questionnaire was conducted in 335 students, and the results of the survey were statistically analyzed. Result The improved PBL teaching based on speech contest can boost students to integrate into classroom teaching actively in which they had a better understanding of the knowledge so that the expected teaching quality of clinical molecular biology testing was achieved effectively. Questionnaire showed that the impact of PBL teaching method on students was not extensive currently, indicating that there was still more space to promoting such teaching methods. Although traditional teaching methods still held a place in students' minds (43.9%, 147 cases), the innovative teaching of PBL, which is novel, interesting and colorful, is more in line with the expectations of medical laboratory students in the new era and has the highest acceptance (49.6%, 166 cases). Conclusion The innovative practice of PBL teaching based on speech contest can achieve the purpose of strengthening students' knowledge acquisition and flexibility in the practical use of knowledge, which is worthy of promoting. Teachers could gradually integrate the new PBL teaching model into the tradi-tional teaching methods in the future, making students study efficiently in a relaxed and active atmosphere
