Objective To discuss the clinical application value of Omaha system-based targeting nursing care for patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) who were treated with transcatheter arterial chemoembolization (TACE).Methods A total of 60 advanced HCC patients,who were planned to receive TACE,were prospectively and randomly divided into the control group (n=30) and the observation group (n=30).Routine nursing mode was adopted for the patients in the control group,while Omaha system nursing model was employed for the patients in the observation group.The patients of the observation group were evaluated with Omaha system at the time of admission,the key common problems were screened out and targeted nursing measures were employed.Meanwhile,on the days of admission and discharge all the patients of both groups were asked to fill in the forms of Hamilton depression scale (HAMD-17),Hamilton anxiety scale (HAMA),social support rating scale (SSQ) and numerical pain rating scale (NRS);and the degrees of depression,anxiety,social support and pain were respectively assessed.Results Both nursing modes could improve the degrees of depression and anxiety as well as the social support system of HCC patients,but the curative effect of these two aspects in the observation group were obviously better than those in the control group (P<0.05).No statistically significant difference in the improvement of pain degree existed between the two nursing models,but Omaha system-based targeting nursing mode could alleviate the patient's pain to a certain extent.Conclusion For patients with advanced HCC,Omaha system-based targeting nursing care can alleviate the patient's negative emotion and promote the patients to establish effective social support system,this nursing mode is superior to conventional nursing mode.Therefore,Omaha system-based targeting nursing has great application potential in clinical practice.

Objective To evaluate the clinical efficacy and safety of transcatheter arterial chemoembolization (TACE) combined with radiofrequency ablation (RFA) in treating hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) under liver capsular. Methods Forty three patients with 62 lesions of HCC under liver capsular received TACE followed by CT?guided percutaneous RFA after 1 to 2 weeks were analyzed retrospectively. The subjects were observed and follow?up imaging with enhanced MRI was performed to evaluate the therapeutic efficacy after combined treatment. The patients were followed up for 10 to 69 months. The patients with residual lesions received a second RFA, the patients with recurrence or new lesions received another TACE combined with RFA. The overall survival rates, median survival time and median time to progression were calculated by using Kaplan?Meier. Results A total of 55 TACE and 68 ablations were performed in 43 patients with 62 lesions. The procedure was successfully accomplished in all patients. The complete ablation rate after the first ablation was 90.3%(56/62). The 1, 3, 5?year overall survival rates were 95.3%, 78.1%and 43.9%, the median survival time was 58 months and the median time to progression was 32 months. Conclution For the treatment of hepatocellular carcinoma under liver capsular, TACE combined with RFA is safe and effective.

Objective To explore the clinical value of the dual-low-dose with low tube voltage for head and neck CTA. Methods One hundred and sixty patients who were clinically suspected head and neck vascular disease underwent CTA procedure were propective selected, and whose body mass index (BMI) was also lower than 25 kg/m2. Forty cases were randomly selected as conventional group(120 kV,150 mAs, iodine 320 mg/ml), the other 120 cases were as the low dose group. The low dose group divided into three subgroups according to the random number table method, which were low iodine group (37 cases;120 kV,150 mAs, iodine 270 mg/ml), low tube voltage group (42 cases;100 kV,150 mAs, iodine 320 mg/ml) and low iodine and tube voltage group (41 cases;100 kV,150 mAs, iodine 270 mg/ml). The carotid bifurcated CT value, standard deviation (SD), signal-to-noise ratio (SNR), iodine intake and effective radiation dose (ED) of the four groups were recorded,all data undertook statistical analysis useing one-way ANOVA. Meanwhile, the subjective image quality score was applied to evaluate the image quality, and the differences among groups were compared by Wilcoxon signed ranks test. Results The image quality score were (2.85±0.19),(2.33 ± 0.34),(2.26 ± 0.32),(2.87 ± 0.22) in the four groups, and there was no statistical difference between groups(P>0.05).The carotid bifurcated CT value were respectively (380±30),(314±27),(514±52) and (425±28) HU in conventional, low iodine, low tube voltage and dual-low-dose groups, and the iodine intake were (18.85±2.10), (15.75±1.78), (18.53±1.98), (15.62±1.92) g, the ED of the four groups were (1.74±0.14), (1.73± 0.11), (1.32 ± 0.08) and (1.35 ± 0.09) mSv, the difference were all statistically significant (P<0.01). Furthermore, the iodine intake and the effective radiation dose in dual-low-dose group were significantly lower than the conventational group. Conclusions Head-and-neck CTA with dual-low-dose scan can provide same quality images as using 100 kV and high dose iodine contrast agent, and which also significantly reduced the ED and iodine intake greatly. Thus, this scanning program has great clinical value.

Objective:
To explore and clarify the correlation between short-term aggressive intrasegmental recurrence (AIR) and functional magnetic resonance imaging after radiofrequency ablation of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC).
Methods:
A retrospective analysis of 1 262 patients with HCC who underwent radiofrequency ablation (RFA) in our hospital from January 2012 to June 2018, all patients were confirmed by pathology as HCC, of which 30 patients were found to have AIR during radiographic follow-up within 3 months after surgery, another 35 patients with disease progression who were controlled in a short period of time were randomly selected as the control group. All the enrolled patients underwent dynamic enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (DCE-MRI) and diffusion weighted imaging (DWI) scanning before surgery, and the differences in clinical data, lesion location, and functional magnetic resonance parameters between the two groups were compared, and their correlation with AIR after RFA was analyzed.
