A kind of portable device for detecting common lung function parameters is mentioned in this paper. Using the singlechip microcomputer as the master control block to collect and process the data from high-accuracy gas pressure sensor, through the way of parametric calibration and linear interpolation to test and calculate the Forced Vital Capacity (FVC), Peak Expiratory Flow (PEF), Forced Expiratory Volume in one second (FEV1), and FEV1/FVC. Meanwhile, the detected parameters can be uploaded to the intelligent mobile terminal through the wireless transmission module. The device is able to show expiratory volume-time curve and the final parameters clearly, the error of measurement is less than 5%. In addition, that device is small and convenient, not only is good for clinical application, but also can be used for family in a house.

In February 2022, the world′s first gallbladder reporting and data system (GB-RADS) for the assessment of gallbladder wall thickening on ultrasonography was published in the form of an international expert consensus. The GB-RADS system classifies gallbladder wall thickening into six levels (GB-RADS 0?5), with gradually increasing risk of malignancy. It is mainly based on the following features: symmetry and extent (focal versus circumferential) of involvement, layered appearance, intramural features (including intramural cysts and echogenic foci), and interface with the liver. The proposed system is important for the standardized diagnosis and treatment of gallbladder diseases. The authors interpret the consensus, introduce the evaluation points and classification standards, and suggest the future applications and research directions.
