目的 探讨十二指肠肿瘤血流量存在的异质性及容积灌注CT成像对降低肿瘤异质性的影响。方法 纳入我院2013年1月至2014年11月十二指肠结节病例的132例,其中腺癌48例,间质瘤52例,淋巴瘤32例。所有的病例均行单层面灌注CT和容积灌注CT成像扫描,比较两者对十二指肠恶性肿瘤的诊断效能,采用变异系数评价两者在影像学异质性的差异,评价肿瘤影像学异质性对十二指肠恶性肿瘤的影响。结果 容积灌注CT成像与单层面灌注CT诊断恶性结节的效能其敏感性、特异性、准确性、阴性预测值、阳性预测值比较均无明显差别(P0.05);中高分化组及低分化组两个亚组的容积灌注CT成像的变异系数也均小于单层面灌注CT的变异系数,组间相比具有统计学差异(P0.05);血流量差异性的大小相比具有统计学差异(P0.05)。结论 容积灌注CT成像与单层面灌注CT检查在诊断效能上无明显差异,稳定性好,肿瘤影像学异质性对评价十二指肠肿瘤血流量有着一定影响,容积灌注CT成像能够降低肿瘤异质性的影响。     

Evaluation of the anterolateral ligament of the knee by magnetic resonance imaging in patients with chronic anterior cruciate ligament rupture

ObjectiveThe purpose of this study was to evaluate the visibility of the anterolateral ligament (ALL) by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in patients with chronic anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) rupture.Materials and methodsThis retrospective case – control study compared 1.5 - T MRI scans for 50 patients with a chronic ACL rupture with those of a control group of 50 patients with an intact ACL. The ALL was evaluated in three portions: femoral, meniscal, and tibial. The status of each portion was classified as visualized or non-visualized. Two radiologists separately reviewed all the MRI scans to evaluate interobserver reliability.ResultsAt least one portion of the ALL was visualized in 100% of the control group and 72% of the chronic ACL rupture group. All three portions of the ALL were identified in 72% of the control group but only 10% of the chronic ACL rupture group. In both groups, the most commonly visualized portion was the meniscal portion and the least visualized was the tibial portion. In 18% of the chronic ACL rupture group, no portion of the ALL was visualized.ConclusionsThe visibility of the ALL of the knee was significantly lower in patients with a chronic ACL rupture than in those with an intact one.     

肝移植术后认知与脑改变的多模态神经成像

肝性脑病是终末期肝硬化的重要并发症,导致病人出现一系列神经及认知功能改变。肝移植术后病人在肝功能恢复的同时其认知功能也可明显改善。MRI可以从脑代谢、结构及功能方面更进一步揭示肝硬化病人移植术后认知及脑改变情况。综述肝移植术后认知改变的研究现状以及最新的多模态MRI技术在术后脑改变中的应用,及其在揭示术后认知恢复及残存损害的神经机制中的价值。     

偏瘫性肩痛患者腋囊的MRI观测及临床意义

目的通过MRI技术观察偏瘫患者肩疼痛腋囊形态变化,为影像诊断提供依据。方法对47例偏瘫性肩疼痛患者(疼痛组)和47例正常肩部(对照组),运用MRI技术对肩关节腋囊进行测量,观察腋囊下肱盂韧带信号。结果偏瘫性肩疼痛的腋囊厚度(4.1±1.45)mm,高于对照组。腋囊腔高度(8.70±1.80)mm,腋囊腔宽度(4.31±0.56)mm,小于对照组。偏瘫性肩痛下肱盂韧带呈高信号出现率达21%,腋囊厚度与VAS呈正相关,与肩关节外展外旋呈负相关。结论脑中风中后期肩周炎是引起偏瘫性肩疼痛患者的常见原因,腋囊厚度是限制肩关节活动度的重要因素。     

CT三维重建模型下模拟髋臼前柱2种经皮置钉方法的比较

目的对比CT三维重建模型下模拟髋臼前柱2种经皮置钉方法的效果。方法选取55例正常成人骨盆CT资料构建三维模型,共110侧髋臼前柱,调整模型透明度使其类似常规X线片,分别用2种置钉方法进行置钉,A组利用出口闭孔位和入口髂骨位引导置钉,B组利用髋臼前柱轴位引导置钉,置钉完成后恢复图像为不透明状态,记录螺钉是否进入髋关节及与耻骨支的位置关系。结果55例110侧髋臼,4侧未能找到髋臼前柱轴位影像予以剔除,106侧髋臼前柱纳入研究。2组模型均无螺钉进入髋臼。A组螺钉置入优秀、良好、尚可率分别为59.4%、17.0%、23.6%,B组分别为59.4%、22.6%、17.9%,2组总体置钉质量差异无统计学意义(Z=-0.829,P=0.407)。A组女性骨盆置钉优秀、良好、尚可率分别为7.1%、21.4%、71.4%,B组分别为28.6%、21.4%、50.0%,B组置钉质量显著高于A组(Z=-3.000,P=0.003)。A组男性骨盆置钉优秀率78.2%,良好率15.4%,尚可率6.4%,B组分别为70.5%、23.1%、6.4%,2组差异无显著性(Z=-0.969,P=0.333)。结论髋臼前柱轴位可以作为引导置钉的一种手段,尤其适用于女性患者,对于男性患者,2种方法均可实现较好的置钉。     

Adverse events due to unnecessary radiation exposure in medical imaging reported in Finland

IntroductionAdverse events in radiology are quite rare, but they do occur. Radiation safety regulations and the law obligate organizations to report certain adverse events, harm and near misses, especially events related to patients' health and safety. The aim of this study was to describe and analyse incidents related to radiation safety issues reported in Finland.MethodsThe data were collected from incident reports documented by radiology personnel concerning notifications of abnormal events in medical imaging made to the Radiation and Nuclear Safety Authority between 2010 and 2017. During these eight years, 312 reports were submitted. Only events reported from radiology departments were included; nuclear medicine, radiotherapy and animal radiology cases were excluded. The final number of reports was 293 (94%).ResultsThe majority of the 293 approved reports were related to computed tomography (CT, 68.3%) and to X-ray examinations (27.6%). Altogether 82.9% of those irradiated were adults, most of whom were exposed to unnecessary radiation through CT (86.5%), 5.5% were children, and 4.4% pregnant women. The most common effective dose of unnecessary radiation was 1 mSv or less (89.7% of all examinations). The highest effective doses were reported in CT (from under 1 mSv–20 mSv and above). The reasons for the adverse events were incorrect identification (32%), incorrect procedure, site or side (30%); and human errors or errors of knowledge (20%).ConclusionAdverse events occurred especially in CT examinations. It is important to collect and analyse incident data, assess the harmful events, learn from them and aim to reduce adverse events.Implications for practiceThis study emphasizes the need for radiological personnel to obtain evidence-based information on adverse events and focus on training to improve patient safety.
