Objective:To study the effects of different duty cycles [modulated by pulse repetition frequency(PRF)] of diagnostic ultrasound on enhancing blood perfusion in hypovascular tumors.Methods:Walker-256 tumor cells were injected subcutaneously into the inner thigh of 15 SD rats, and the rats were randomly divided into 3 groups according to PRF: group A(PRF=50 Hz), group B(PRF=1.0 kHz) and group C(PRF=2.0 kHz), with 5 rats in each group. The tumor-bearing rats in each group were treated with ultrasound combined with microbubbles for 10 minutes. Contrast-enhanced ultrasound was performed before treatment, immediately after treatment, and 4 hours after treatment, respectively, to compare the peak intensity(PI), area under curve(AUC), and tumor perfusion area in each group.Results:Immediately after treatment, PI and AUC values of group A and B increased compared with those before treatment (all P<0.05); 4 hours after treatment, PI and AUC values of group B continued to increase, superior to that immediately after treatment (all P<0.05), while PI and AUC values of group A and C were decreased compared with those immediately after treatment (all P>0.05). Immediately after treatment, the tumor blood perfusion area in group A and B increased significantly compared with that before treatment (all P<0.05); 4 hours after treatment, the tumor blood flow perfusion area of group B continued to increase, which was better than that immediately after treatment ( P<0.05), and the tumor blood perfusion areas of group A and C decreased compared with that immediately after treatment (all P>0.05). Conclusions:Low-intensity diagnostic ultrasound stimulated microbubble cavitation with PRF=1.0 kHz can enhance tumor blood flow significantly which can last for more than 4 hours.

Objective To discuss how to reduce the incidence of postoperative infection and am-putation of patients after earthquake.Methods The wound infection and corresponding therapeutic outcome were analyzed in 592 patients in front line hospitals and station hospitals.Results The inci-dence of infection was 30. 7% in patients treated in front hospital within 8 hours post-trauma but 79. 9% after 8 hours post-trauma. There included 1 patient(0. 2%) with amputation due to clostridial myonecro-sis and 5(1. 2%)with amputation due to serious infection. Incidelice of postoperative wound infection was 7. 1% after selective operation for close injury. The incidence of infection in patients in station hospi-tals was 50. 8%, with no amputation, because they received debridement and antibiotics in site or front line hospitals. No postoperative infection was found in patients with close injury treated with selective op-eration in station hospitals. The major bacteria of wound infection in either front line hospitals or station hospitals were enterococcus faecalis and Eschrichia Coli. Incidence of combined infection was higher than that of single infection. And Gram-Negative bacillus infection exceeded Gram-Positive bacillus infection. The major wound infection obrained effective control through treatment with sensitive antibiotics.Con-clusions After earthqiale, the incidence of infection in patients with open injury is high, with high am-putation rate due to serious infection. Therefore, we propose performing as soon as possible debridement and external fixation with antibiotic treatment but reducing internal fixation. The postoperative infection late of patients with close injury in front line hospitals is much higher than that in station hospitals;their-fore, patients with stable vital signs should be transported to station hospitals as early as possible in order to reduce incidenee of infection.

Objective To evaluate MRI in judging the therapeutic effect of argon-helium cryoablation therapy for prostate cancer. Methods The clinical data and imaging materials of 16 patients with prostate cancer , who had received ultrasound-guided argon-helium knife cryogenic treatment at authors ’ hospital during the period from March 2012 to Oct. 2014, were retrospectively and comprehensively analyzed. The preoperative and postoperative laboratory test results were compared with MRI findings, and the ablation effect was assessed, focusing on the surgical residue, metastasis, etc. Results One months after the surgery, MRI demonstrated that satisfactory ablation extent was obtained in all patients, the ablated tumor tissue was characterized by long-T2 signal and no obvious recurrence could be found on DWI and DCE-MRI. A slight decrease of PSA level was observed. Six months after the surgery, MRI revealed that the prostate size was significantly reduced, PSA level was markedly decreased and no obvious evidence of recurrence was observed. No severe postoperative complications, such as urethral necrosis, urethral stricture or urethro-rectal fistula, occurred. During the 6-month following-up time, one patient died from other causes. Conclusion MRI has excellent clinical application value in estimating the ablation extent and in judging postoperative recurrence or metastasis of prostate cancer after argon-helium cryoablation treatment.

Objective To compare the clinical features between radiological isolated syndrome (RIS) and classical multiple sclerosis (CMS), in order to improve the understanding of the RIS. Methods All 35 patients with RIS and 32 patients with CMS were selected. The epidemiological and clinical findings, cerebrospinal fluid, neural electrophysiological examination and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) data were analyzed. Results There were no statistical differences in sex ratio and onset age between RIS patients and CMS patients (P>0.05). The main symptoms of in patients with RIS were headache (45.7%, 16/35), dizziness (40.0%, 14/35), hypomnesis (20.0%, 7/35) and psychiatric disorders (11.4%, 4/35). But the main symptoms of in patients with CMS were limb weakness (75.0%, 24/32), sensory abnormalities (68.8%, 22/32) and ocular symptoms (34.4%,11/32). The incidences of limb weakness, sensory abnormalities and ocular symptoms in patients with CMS were significantly higher than those in patients with RIS:75.0%(24/32) vs. 0, 68.8%(22/32) vs. 0 and 34.4%(11/32) vs. 0, and there were statistical differences (P<0.01). The 18 patients with RIS and 21 patients with CMS underwent the examination of cerebrospinal fluid, and there was no significant difference in leukocyte between patients with RIS and patients with CMS (P>0.05). The cerebrospinal fluid protein and the incidences of IgG index>0.7 in patients with RIS were significantly lower than those in patients with CMS:0.175 (0.03-0.69) g/L vs. 0.440 (0.04-1.09) g/L and 3/18 vs. 47.6%(10/21), and there were statistical differences (P<0.05). The 15 patients with RIS and 22 patients with CMS underwent the examination of neural electrophysiological, and the abnormality rates of visual evoked potential (VEP) and brain stem auditory evoked potential (BAEP) in patients with RIS were significantly lower than those in patients with CMS:4/15 vs. 63.6%(14/22) and 3/15 vs. 54.5%(12/22), and there were statistical differences (P<0.05). But there was no statistical difference in the abnormality rate of somatosensory evoked potential (SEP) between patients with RIS and patients with CMS (P>0.05). On MRI, the demyelinating lesions of RIS and CMS were both mainly distributed in the periventricular, semi-oval center, infratentorial white matter, partly involving corpus callosum or cortical. The rates of demyelinating lesions in brainstem and cerebellum in patients with RIS were significantly lower than those in patients with CMS:5.7%(2/35) vs. 34.4% (11/32) and 2.9% (1/35) vs. 25.0% (8/32), and there were statistical differences (P<0.01 or <0.05). Comparison with CMS lesions, RIS lesions mainly showed patching and stippled, and there were statistical differences (P<0.01 or <0.05). The rates of lesions enhancement and spinal cord injury in patients with RIS were significantly lower than those in patients with CMS: 2/17 vs. 45.0% (9/20) and 1/14 vs. 43.5% (10/23), and there were statistical differences (P<0.05). Conclusions There are differences in clinical findings, cerebrospinal fluid, neural electrophysiological examination and MRI appearances between RIS and CMS.
