ObjectiveInvestigate the value and feasibility of image registration with reverse rotation in lateral cerebral DSA.Methods ( 1 ) Experimental study:the target images were subtracted directly,and subtracted again after reverse rotation.Software of registration and subtraction with reverse rotation edited by the author utilizing Visual Basic.The function of the automatic angle detection by the software were evaluated to see whether it detected the angle of line.The subtraction function of DSA by the software was evaluated.(2) Clinical retrospective study:the untreated mask and target inages of 15 patients with motion along vertical axis during lateral cerebral DSA were uploaded to the software.The target images were processed with and without the software to get two sets of images.( 3 ) Evaluation:four experienced radiologists read and compared the two sets of the images,and graded their findings.Results ( 1 ) The automatic detection by the software suggested that the target images should be rotated counterclockwise 1.3°. The subtraction result of the software was satisfactory.(2)In the 15 sets of images,there were only three sets of images deemed optimal after traditional subtraction.After reverse rotation,artifacts were significantly reduced and the image sharper. There were ten cases with significant artifacts after traditional subtraction,and those images were sharper and showed more peripheral vessels after reverse rotation. The traditional subtraction images of two sets could not be interpreted,the reverse rotation registration images reached the diagnostic quality.(3)Subjective evaluation: there were more information and less noise and distortion in the registration images with reverse rotation than in the traditional subtraction. But the image resolution decreased slightly after reverse rotation registration.ConclusionThe registration of digital angiography with reverse rotation can improve the image quality in lateral cerebral DSA.

Objective: To detect the mutation of epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) gene in peripheral blood of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients in Yunnan area with Super-ARMS, and to explore its correlation with clinicopathological characteristics. Methods: A total of 222 blood samples from patients with NSCLC were collected between January 2017 to December 2018 in the Molecular Diagnostic Center of Yunnan Cancer Hospital. The EGFR gene mutation in peripheral blood samples was detected by SuperARMS, and the relationship between EGFR gene mutation and clinicopathological features was analyzed. Meanwhile, the independent risk factors influencing EFGR mutation were also analyzed. Results: In the peripheral blood of 222 NSCLC patients, there were 81 cases (36.5%) with EGFR gene mutation. Among them, exon 19 deletion and L858R gene point mutation were the most common (75.3% of total mutation); female patients had a higher mutation rate than male patients (45.9% vs 27.0%); patients <60 years old had a higher incidence of mutation than patients≥60 years old (43.2% vs 28.8%) (P<0.05 or P<0.01); moreover, patients with no history of smoking, no history of radical surgery, adenocarcinoma, advanced stage and no history of chemotherapy had higher incidence of EGFR mutation (43.9% vs 21.6%, 39.2% vs 21.2%, 43.9% vs 4.8%, 39.7% vs 23.3% and 44.0% vs 23.5%) (P<0.05 or P<0.01). Multivariate logistic analysis showed that young, no smoking history, adenocarcinoma and no surgical history were independent risk factors for EGFR gene mutation (all P<0.01). Conclusion: In the peripheral blood of patients with NSCLC in Yunnan, the mutation rate of EGFR gene is higher in patients with age<60 years old, adenocarcinoma and non-smoking. Super-ARMS method is more sensitive in the detection of EGFR mutation in peripheral blood of lung cancer patients.

Objective:
To explore the screening efficiency of colorectal cancer in urban residents of Kunming, China.
Methods:
Using the method of cluster sampling, from October 2014 to October 2017, residents of the three jurisdictions of Xishan, Guandu and Chenggong Districts of Kunming city were investigated. The inclusion criteria: (1) resident (for more than 3 years) population of Kunming city aged 40-74 years old; (2) voluntarily participating and receiving colonoscopy; (3) signing informed consent. Based on the Harvard Cancer Risk Index, the questionnaire was built on the consensus of more than 20 years of common cancer epidemiology in China. Through the consensus reached by the multidisciplinary expert panel discussion, a comprehensive evaluation system for cancer risk in China was designed. The high-risk group of colorectal cancer was determined by preliminary screening of the questionnaire, and a free colonoscopy was performed for the appointment to the gastrointestinal endoscopy department of the Yunnan Cancer Hospital. All polypoid lesions and ulcers found by colonoscopy must be biopsied to confirm the diagnosis. χ2 test or Fisher exact probability method was used to compare the detection of colorectal cancer in 4 groups of 40-49 years old, 50-59 years old, 60-69 years old, and ≥70-years old. Detection of colonoscopy, compliance, pathological examination, pathological diagnosis, and morbidity of colorectal cancer were analyzed.
Results:
A total of 127 960 people from 40 to 74 years old of urban residents in Kunming city participated in the preliminary screening of the questionnaire, including 59 748 (46.7%) males and 68 212 females (53.3%) with mean age of (53.6±8.6) years old. The 40-49 years old group had the largest number of participants (48 044, 37.5%), followed by the groups of 50-59 years old (42 473, 33.2%), 60-69 years old (34 111, 26.7%), and ≥70 years old (3332, 2.6%). Till October 2017, a total of 14 971 people were screened as at high risk of colorectal cancer, with the high-risk detection rate of 11.7%, and the high-risk detection rate of women was significantly higher than that of men [13.4% (9 109/68 212) vs. 9.8% (5 862/59 748), χ2=386.947,

Systematic light chain (AL) amyloidosis is the most common forms of amyloidosis, which manifests as multiple organ system involvement, rapid progress, dire prognosis, difficult therapy and high mortality. Many patients may miss the optimal treatment as a result of not being diagnosed timely. Therefore, early diagnosis and assessment of involved extent of AL are clinical focuses. Related clinical studies have demonstrated that nuclear medicine imaging can be non-invasive in detecting amyloid deposits. It can not only early assess the extent and distribution of amyloid deposits in systemic AL amyloidosis, but also offer the indications for risk stratification, treatment response monitoring and prognosis assessment of the patients, especially for positron amyloidosis-specific tracers, which may have great prospects in the future. This review summarizes the application of nuclear medicine imaging in the systematic AL amyloidosis.
