[Purpose]To investigate the choice of medical institutions for the first-treatment of can-cer patients after diagnosis and the factors influencing it,so as to provide a reference basis for the rational allocation of health resources and the promotion of hierarchical diagnosis and treatment of cancer.[Methods]A total of 1 140 common cancer patients from 1 provincial,3 municipal and 6 county-level medical institutions in Shandong Province were included in the study,and a ques-tionnaire survey was conducted on their basic personal information and the selection of medical institutions.Chi-square test and Fisher exact test were used to compare different groups,and mul-ti-classification unordered Logistic regression were used to explore the factors influencing the se-lection of cancer patients.[Results]1 077 valid questionnaires were collected.The selection rates of first-treatment institutions for cancer patients were county hospitals(29.90％),city hospitals(35.28％),and provincial hospitals(34.82％),and the high level of medical care was the main reason for the selection of first-treatment institutions for cancer patients.The results of multi-clas-sification unordered Logistic regression showed that when choosing municipal and county medical institutions as the first treatment institution compared to choosing a county medical institution for the first treatment as a reference,compared to patients with stage Ⅰ tumors,patients with tumor stages at stage Ⅲ(OR=1.789,95％CI:1.014～3.158)and stage Ⅳ(OR=2.005,95％CI:1.179～3.409)were more likely to choose municipal medical institutions;and patients with annual house-hold income of 10 000～＜50 000 CNY(OR=0.625,95％CI:0.414～0.943)were less likely to choose mu-nicipal medical institutions compared to those with an annual household income of＜10 000 CNY.When choosing provincial and county medical institutions as the first treatment institution com-pared to patients in stage Ⅲ(OR=2.885,95％C1:1.549～5.372)and stage Ⅳ(OR=3.104,95％CI:1.724～5.586)compared to patients with stage Ⅰ tumors when choosing a county medical institu-tion for the first treatment was used as a reference;married(OR=2.248,95％CI:1.127～4.484)patients were more likely to choose provincial healthcare organizations than unmarried/divorced/widowed patients;patients with a family history of cancer compared to patients without a family history of cancer(OR=1.650,95％CI:1.115～2.441)were more inclined to choose provincial healthcare institutions;compared with patients＜45 years old,patients over 60 years old(OR=0.483,95％CI:0.242～0.962)were less inclined to choose provincial hospitals;and compared with patients who were not aware of knowledge related to cancer,those who were aware of knowledge related to cancer(OR=0.613,95％CI:0.441～0.852)patients were less inclined to choose provin-cial hospitals.[Conclusion]Vigorously carrying out publicity on cancer prevention and treatment knowledge,improving the cancer prevention and treatment literacy of cancer patients.strengthen-ing vertical cooperation among medical institutions at all levels,improving the provincial-munici-pal-county cancer prevention and treatment network,and promoting the sinking of high-quality medical resources are important ways to improve the cancer prevention and treatment capacity of counties and promote the work of hierarchical medical system.

Objective:To analyze the radionuclide bone imaging features of spine tumors and its clinical value.Methods and results:Data of radionuclide planar whole-body bone imaging with 99m Tc-MDP were analyzed in90patients with various spinal tumors confirmed by histopathology.In49patients with metastases,bone imaging was positive in43;37vertebra showed strong uptake;30patients involved the whole vertebra with symmetrical enlargement in18;other extravertebral bone foci were seen in29.In17patients with primary malignant bone tumors,bone imaging was positive in12;11vertebra showed strong uptake;and8involved the whole vertebra;3focal lesions had local irregular bulging;other extravertebral bone foci were seen in4.In24patients with benign bone tumors,bone imaging was positive in13;6vertebra showed strong uptake; other extravertebral bone foci were seen in1.Conclusion:Spinal metastases in bone imaging are mainly multiple,strong up-take of whole vertebra and accompanied by symmetrical enlargement with other extravertebral bone foci.Primary malignant bone tumor is mainly single or multiple,strong uptake of whole vertebra without symmetrical enlargement,some with local irregular bulging lesions.

Dynamic renal imaging studies were performed in 132 patients using 99m Tc DTPA and 131 I OIH. Effective renal plasma flow(ERPF) and glomerular filtration rate(GFR) was obtained. GFRs were calculated with 2 background regions of interest(ROI),conventional subrenal areas(SB) and suprarenal areas(SP). The relative renal functions(RR) obtained by GFRs determination was significantly higer compared with that by ERPF. These results suggested that the RR of impaired kidney determined by GFR(SB) was obviously higher than that assessed by ERPF. Higher coefficient( r value) was gotten with GFR(SP) than with GFR(SB).Results suggested that the GFR obtained with conventional subrenal background ROI might overestimate individual renal function of the poorly functional kidney and the GFR estimated by suprarenal background ROI might be more accurate.

Diagnosis of early Alzheimer's disease (AD) is still a clinical challenge,growing evidence indicated radionu-elide neuroimaging, especially positron emission computed tomography (PET), would be promising for the diagnosis of early AD. Studies showed reduction of cerebral blood flow and glucose metabolism occurring at the parietotemporal lobes of AD patients at the early stage. A study showed that PET detected AD with an accuracy greater than 90% 2. 5 years earlier than clinical diagnostic methods using electroencephalography, structural imaging studies and so on. Recent investigation aimed at senile plaques (SPs) and neurofibrillary tangles (NFTs) that were hallmark pathologies accompanying the neurodegeneration involved in AD. Some researchers used 2-(l-(6-[(2-18F]fluoroethyl) (methyl)amino]-2-naphthyl)ethylidene) malononitrile (C18F]FDDNP) , in conjunction with PET to determine the localization and load of NFTs and SPs in the brains of living AD patients. Monitoring SPs and NFTs development is expected to facilitate diagnostic of AD patients and assist in response-monitoring during experimental treatments.
