Objective To evaluate the feasibility and effectiveness of 3D digital holographic imaging combined with intraoperative navigation technology in the context of partial nephrectomy.Methods A total of 46 patients who underwent laparoscopic partial nephrectomy in the Department of Urology at the Second People's Hospital of Hefei City between June 2023 and January 2025 were randomly assigned to either the experimental group or the control group.The experimental group(n=23)utilized preoperative planning and intraoperative real-time navigation based on 3D digital holographic imaging,whereas the control group(n=23)relied on preoperative planning using optimized two-dimensional images obtained via contrast-enhanced CT and MRI scans.Preoperative data—including gender,age,body mass index(BMI),tumor diameter,and RENAL score—were collected.Intra-operative parameters such as total operative time,warm ischemia time,intraoperative blood loss,hemoglobin levels,postoperative hospitalization duration,and time to drain removal were recorded.Renal function changes were assessed by comparing serum creatinine levels and estimated glomerular filtration rates(eGFR)before surgery and one month post-surgery.Additionally,the incidence of intraoperative complications—particularly injury to the renal collecting system—and postoperative complications—including positive surgical margins,bleeding,subcutaneous emphysema,and urinary fistula—was analyzed.Results In this study,holographic images were successfully reconstructed for 23 patients with renal tumors in the experimental group.Each anatomical structure—including the kidney and tumor lesions,collecting system,renal arteries and veins,adrenal glands,and inferior vena cava—was color-coded to enable intuitive visualization.These images were used for preoperative planning and provided real-time spatial orientation to accurately locate and guide resection of the tumor during surgery.In the control group,23 patients underwent preoperative planning based on contrast-enhanced CT and MRI scans acquired using optimized parameters.All 46 patients underwent laparoscopic partial nephrectomy performed by the same qualified surgeon,and postoperative pathological analysis confirmed renal tumors,including 27 cases of clear cell carcinoma,7 cases of chromophobe cell carcinoma,5 cases of papillary cell carcinoma,2 cases of sarcomatoid carcinoma,and 5 cases of angiomyolipoma.No significant differences were observed in baseline clinical characteristics(including age,body mass index,tumor diameter,and RENAL score)between the two groups(P>0.05).The experimental group showed significantly lower values in total operative time,warm ischemia time,intraoperative blood loss,pre-to postoperative hemoglobin changes,and pre-surgical to one-month post-surgical creatinine changes compared to the control group(P<0.01).Additionally,the experimental group exhibited smaller changes in hospitalization duration,time to drain removal,and glomerular filtration rate from preoperative to one month post-surgery;however,these differences were not statistically significant(P=0.175,P=0.331,and P=0.273).There were no intraop-erative complications or damage to the collecting system in either the experimental or control groups.Postopera-tively,the control group experienced one case of positive surgical margin,one case of hemorrhage,and one case of subcutaneous emphysema.No statistically significant differences were observed between the groups(P>0.05).Conclusions 3D digital holographic imaging combined with intraoperative navigation technology,based on the fusion of MRI and CT data,facilitates preoperative planning and precise intraoperative guidance.This approach helps reduce operative time,preserve renal function,and lower perioperative risks while ensuring therapeutic efficacy.

Objective:To understand the activity concentrations of varying chemical forms of 131I in nuclear medicine workplaces and assess the internal irradiation doses of 131I to workers. Methods:A high-volume air sampler was used for air sampling of 131I. Glass fiber filters, activated carbon filters, and iodine cartridges, which were connected in series, were employed to collect aerosol iodine, gaseous inorganic iodine, and gaseous organic iodine, respectively. A method for analyzing the activity of 131I unevenly distributed in the iodine cartridge was developed, and an HPGe γ spectrometer was used to determine the activity of 131I in samples collected from the nuclear medicine workplaces of 15 hospitals. Results:The concentrations of aerosol iodine, inorganic iodine, and organic iodine in 15 hospitals were determined at 0.19-206.67, 0.27-138.45, and 2.35-3 821.11 Bq/m 3, respectively, with arithmetic means of 22.04, 12.79 and 365.08 Bq/m 3, respectively. The maximum annual committed effective doses of varied forms of 131I inhaled by workers were determined at 0.19, 0.19, and 3.81 mSv, respectively, with a maximum total committed effective dose of 4.13 mSv. Conclusions:Gaseous organic iodine is identified as the primary form of 131I in the air within nuclear medicine workplaces. Therefore, it is necessary to highlight the monitoring and protection of gaseous organic iodine.

Objective:To investigate the number of medical institutions and staff involved in 131I diagnosis and therapy in China, and to ascertain the level of 131I activity incorporated in thyroid of medical staff performing the 131I treatment. Methods:Questionnaires were used to investigate the basic information on nuclear medicine practices in all the non-military hospitals in China. Portable gamma spectrometers were used to determine and analyze the 131I activity in thyroid of the medical staff in some radioiodine treatment workplaces. The result were reported through National Radiological Health Information Platform. Results:Until December 2022, there had been 959 hospitals performing clinical nuclear medicine practices in China, with a total of 10 820 medical staff. In China, there have been 623 hospitals performing 131I therapeutical procedures, accounting for 65.0% of all nuclear medicine hospitals, and 333 hospitals performing 131I treatment of thyroid cancer, accounting for 34.7%. The hospitals equipped with automated radiopharmaceutical dispenser accounted for 61.3% of the 623 hospitals. A total of 2 210 nuclear medicine staff were monitored for internal exposure in 20 provinces in 2022, with 249 (11.3%) having activities above 100 Bq and the maximum value of 2.9 × 10 4 Bq. A total of 426 nuclear medicine staff in four provinces were detected using HPGe detectors, with 101 (23.7%) detected to have 131I in their thyroid glands. A total of 1 748 in 17 provinces were detected using NaI or LaBr detectors, with 379 (21.2%) detected to have 131I in their thyroid glands. The detection rate of 131I in the staff was found to increase with the increased amount of 131I purchased by hospitals. The detection rate of 131I in the hosptitals having purchased the amount of 131I≥3.70 × 10 6 MBq in 2021 was 32.1%. This value was notably higher than in the other three groups whose purchased amount <3.70 × 10 6 MBq, with a statistically significant difference( χ2=15.46, P < 0.001). Conclusions:There were great differences in the number of both hospitals and staff performing 131I treatment between different provinces in China. About one fifth of the staff in the 131I treatment workplaces could be detected to have incorporated 131I in their thyroid glands.

Objectives:To summarize the characteristics of Fabry′s disease with cardiac involvement.Methods:This was a single-center, cross-sectional, retrospective study. Patients with Fabry disease who were admitted to Zhongda Hospital Affiliated to Southeast University from January 2022 to March 2023 were included. Clinical data, laboratory results, electrocardiogram, echocardiography and cardiac magnetic resonance findings of enrolled patients were collected. Clinical presentations and imaging features of patients with Fabry′s disease with cardiac involvement were summarized and analyzed.Results:A total of 17 patients from 8 families were included, with 9 males and diagnosis age of (44.35±13.72) years. Cardiac involvement and other organ involvement were presented in all patients and the heart was the most vulnerable organ (17/17). 24 h electrocardiogram showed frequent sinus arrhythmia in 3 patients. Echocardiography showed reduced left ventricular ejection fraction in 1 patient, myocardial hypertrophy in 13 patients, and left ventricular wall thickness ≥13 mm in 10 patients. Mitral regurgitation was observed in 11 patients and tricuspid regurgitation in 12 patients. Two patients underwent two-dimensional speckle tracking echocardiography, both revealing reduced regional longitudinal strain of the left ventricle, primarily in the basal segments. Cardiac magnetic resonance showed reduced left ventricular ejection fraction in 2 patients, myocardial hypertrophy in 16 patients, and left ventricular wall thickness≥13 mm in 14 patients. T1 value was reduced in 16 patients, with late gadolinium enhancement observed in 9 patients and “pseudo-normalization” of T1 values in 1 patient. The most susceptible target organ besides the heart was the kidneys (14/17), followed by the central nervous system (9/17). Additional findings inclucling cutaneous angiokeratoma in 4 patients, peripheral neuropathy with burning pain and hypohidrosis or hyperhidrosis in 6 patients, and corneal vortex opacities in 2 patients.Conclusion:The main manifestations of cardiac involvement in Fabry′s disease are decreased cardiac function, left ventricular hypertrophy and myocardial fibrosis. Advanced imaging techniques such as two-dimensional speckle tracking, T1 Mapping, and late gadolinium enhancement are useful in detecting myocardial pathological changes of Fabry′s disease.
