PurposeTo analyze the far infrared thermography characteristics before and after surgery in patients with acoustic neuroma.Materials and Methods Thirty-two patients with acoustic neuroma were included as observation group and 40 normal healthy individuals as control group. Un-cooled thermal imaging system (ATIR-M301B) was used with working temperature of 20-25℃. Craniofacial infrared images were collected to analyze temperature differences among different detection zones.Results Far infrared thermography revealed that there were no obvious temperature differences between both sides of supraorbital region, endocanthion region, frontal region and buccal region in the control group (P>0.05). The temperature differences in bilaterally symmetrical parts of supraorbital region, endocanthion region, frontal region, buccal region were significantly higher in observation group (t=1.557, 1.714, 1.483 and 1.569,P<0.05). The craniofacial temperatures of 32 patients changed after operation, and the differences reduced in supraorbital region, endocanthion region, frontal region, and buccal region (t=2.655, 2.462, 2.897 and 4.465,P<0.05).Conclusion Far-infrared thermography inspection can detect abnormal temperature changes.

Purpose To discuss the feasibility of evaluating left ventricular systolic function in patients with acute anterior myocardial infarction (AAMI) with three-dimensional speckle tracking imaging (3D-STI). Materials and Methods Thirty AAMI patients were examined with 3D-STI technique in terms of left ventricular longitudinal strain (LS), radial strain (RS), circumferential strain (CS), area strain (AS), global longitudinal strain (GLS), global riadial strain (GRS), global circumferential strain (GCS) and global area strain (GAS). The results were compared with those of 30 healthy persons and the strain values in normal segments of those AAMI patients. The threshold, sensibility and specificity of those parameters in diagnosing myocardial infarction were analyzed. Results Compared with healthy group, LS reduced in 12 out of 17 segments (12/17), RS reduced in 10/17, CS in 9/17 and AS in 11/17;they mainly focused in the base segment, middle and apex of anterior wall, the base segment and the middle of anterior septal, the apex of aboral septal, and the middle segment, apex of the lateral wall. The GLS, GRS, GCS and GAS were all lower than those in healthy group (differences with statistic signiifcance:P<0.05). In AAMI patient, LS, RS, CS and AS in the infarcted segments were lower compared with those in the normal segments (differences with statistic signiifcance:P<0.05). ROC curve analysis showed that the sensitivity of LS, RS, CS and AS were 89.2%, 79.0%, 77.9%, 85.3%, respectively in the diagnosis of myocardial infarction, and the speciifcity were 65.8%, 71.0%, 66.9%and 92.3%, respectively. The sensitivity of the GLS, GRS, GCS and GAS were 91.2%, 74.0%, 68.9%, 85.3%, respectively in the diagnosis of myocardial infarction, and the speciifcity were 69.8%, 71.0%, 76.9%and 93.3%, respectively. Conclusion 3D-STI can detect the strain values of LV segments efficiently and accurately so as to discriminate normal and infracted segments, which provides a reliable measurement to evaluate the extent of the infarction of the patients with acute anterior wall myocardial infarction.
