Electrical impedance tomography (EIT) represents an emerging medical functional imaging technology, which operates by applying safe-to-human excitation currents through surface-mounted electrodes, measuring boundary voltages between electrodes, and selecting appropriate image reconstruction algorithms to visualize resistivity in tomographic cross-sections. Compared to traditional medical imaging techniques, EIT offers non-invasive and radiation-free operation, high sensitivity to tissue resistivity changes, and superior temporal resolution, meeting the real-time requirements of clinical dynamic condition monitoring. This paper comprehensively reviews the research status of brain EIT technology, systematically summarizes its advantages and technical limitations in perioperative applications, and prospectively forecasts future development directions of perioperative brain EIT based on current research foundations and clinical application demands, with the aim of providing methodological references for further optimization and clinical promotion of this technology.

This article introduces a high-magnification electronic endoscope system that utilizes a continuous zoom optical design,enabling high-magnification imaging at the cellular level.By selecting an appropriate initial retrofocus structure,the optimized modulation transfer function(MTF)curve of the zoom objective lens approaches the diffraction limit.Additionally,the tip and operation parts of the system incorporate modular gas-tight sealing and multiple layers of protective structure.The design employs efficient sealing materials and precise packaging techniques to ensure the system's sealing performance.The experimental results indicate that,under conventional imaging,the resolution is equivalent to 39.37 μm in object space,and the field of view angle is larger than 140 degrees.At magnified imaging,the resolution is equivalent to 2.78 μm in object space,and the observed actual field of view is greater than 800 μm×700 μm.When used with a 26-inch display monitor,the high-magnification electronic endoscope can achieve 500×optical magnification,allowing for the observation of features at the cellular level.Currently,this product has successfully achieved mass production and has undergone multiple animal trials,demonstrating its wide range of potential applications and significant clinical value.

Objective To investigate the short-cycle repeated transurethral resection ( Re-TURBT) combined pirarubicin treatment of T2 muscle invasive bladder tumor efficacy and safety.Methods From October 2010 to December 2013, 56 clinically diagnosed cases of bladder cancer were divided into two groups;the experimental group was taken a short-cycle repeat transurethral resection surgery, and the con-trol group taken along open surgery to remove the tumor and its surrounding 2cm bladder tissue, postopera-tive patients were given pirarubicin infusion therapy.Results Each patient completed the trial.For the ex-perimental group, blood loss and operative time was significantly lower than the control group ( P <0.05). For experimental group after 3 months, 6 months, and 12 months, maximum bladder capacity ( MBC) and patient perception of bladder condition ( PPBC) were significantly higher than control group ( P <0.05 ) . For experimental group after 3 months and 6 months, maximum urinary flow rate ( Qmax) was significantly higher than control group ( P <0.05) , but no significant difference between two groups at 12 months.The incidence of adverse events, vascular endothelial growth factor ( VEGF) , and a total recurrence rate showed no significant difference ( P >0.05).For experimental group, bladder perforation in 1 case, 1 case was forced to open surgery, the incidence rate was about 6.7%.Conclusions The short-cycle repeated trans-urethral resection combined pirarubicin treatment of T2 invasive bladder tumor was simple, effective and se-curity.

Objective To study the urodynamic change of young and middle-aged patients with chronic prostatitis,and provide reference for clinical diagnosis and treatment.Methods Seventy young and middle-aged patients with chronic prostatitis were selected,the bladder capacity,bladder stability,bladder compliance,detrusor pressure and bladder pressure volume curve etc were measured.Results Unstable of detrusor contraction of 20 cases (28.6％,20/70),bladder sensitivity of 35 cases (50.0％,35/70),detrusor underactivity of 46 cases (65.7％,46/70).In 70 young and middle-aged patients with chronic prostatitis,the maximum bladder capacity was 100-497 (380 ± 80) ml,the detrusor pressure at maximum flow rate was 11.2-112.2 (38.4 ± 3.9) cm H2O (1 cm H2O =0.098 kPa),the drop of maximum flow rate was (10.53 ± 1.92) ml/s.Conclusions Through the urodynamic examination,the lower urinary tract obstruction syndrome can be found in young and middle-aged patients with chronic prostatitis,especially who have no significantly improvement after drug therapy.Now,the urodynamic examination for the lower urinary tract obstruction is a credible way to diagnosis,which plays an important role in diagnosis of chronic prostatitis and is useful for clinical practice.

Objective To investigate the value of posterior short segment peg-stick system plus pediele screw fixation in treatment of thoracolumbar fractures. Methods There were 38 patients invol-ving fractures at Tn in three patients, at T_(12) in 11, at L_1 in 15 and at L_2 in nine. There were three pa-tients with simple fractures of vertebral compression, 35 with burst fractures, 33 with thoracolumbar frac-tures combined with paraplegia. The patients with simple fracture of vertebral compression were treated by posterior short-segment peg-stick system plus pedicle screw fixation. While the patients with paraplegia and intraspinal occupancy were treated by posterior decompression, vertebral enlargement and bone graft-ing (between zygopophysis and transverse process) after fixation. Results All patients received a fol-low-up for average 14.5 months, which showed accurate position of pedicle screw and fine contour of the injured vertebra after reduction, with no loosening or breakage of fixators, chronic lumbar pain or loss of the height of fractured vertebra. Of all, 33 patients were accompanied by paresis. There was one patient at Grade A, six at Grade B, 16 at Grade C and nine at Grade D before operation. But there was one pa-tient at Grade A, one at Grade B, five at Grade C, 10 at Grade D and 16 at Grade E. Conclusions For thoracolumbar fractures especially vertebral burst fractures, posterior short segment speg-stick system plus pedicle screw fixation is an ideal treatment method, for it has the following advantages: no obvious loss of the height of the vertebra after operation, protection of the intact intervertebral disc under the in-jured vertebra and minor effect on range of motion of the lumbar vertebrae.
